Is the club dissolving this summer? Seems like everyone is leaving and no one is coming in :lol:

Wouldn't be overly fussed if Pogba/Lukaku left - provided we replace them with actual quality.

Top class (or potentially top class) creative midfielder + a goalscorer.

If you believe everything you read, I reckon a good (but super active) window should look like this:

OUT
Romelu Lukaku
Paul Pogba
Alexis Sanchez
Ander Herrera
Juan Mata
Marcos Rojo
Matteo Darmian
Phil Jones
Antonio Valencia

IN
Mauro Icardi (swap with Rom)
Bruno Fernandes - £75m
Hirving Lozano - £35m
Adrien Rabiot - Free
Ruben Neves - £65m
Toby Alderweireld - £25m
Thomas Meunier - £25m

Gross Spend - £225m

Potential XI:

Martial - Icardi - Lozano
Rabiot - Bruno
Neves
Shaw - Alderweireld - Lindelof - Meunier
De Gea​
Get A Grip ffs.

We're most likely just keeping everything under wraps, it'd be interesting to see what shape the team was in if everyone the media said was leaving did actually leave though :lol:

Judging by the last few tweets Pogba, Lukaku, Herrera, Rashford, De Gea and I guess pretty much everyone else are leaving, we are burning Old Trafford to the ground, dissolving our operations and establishing, I dunno, maybe an NFL franchise?

I think It would be worth it, just for the Glaston being jealous factor.

There hasn't been that much gloom and doom surrounding United in a long time, if ever. Every previous summer since SAF there has been at least a little optimism (at least at the beginning), this time there's just dread.

New contract.
I wouldn't rule out a new contract, but he's been there a while and they still haven't won anything as he's approaching his prime. He probably does want to leave, I just don't think it'll be to us.

I think Eriksen had his eye on Madrid, but they seem to have changed tack and are targeting Pogba instead (presumably because Zidane prefers him and the player/Raiola have said they'll make it happen).

My guess is Eriksen will now sign a new deal (Pochettino said as much earlier this week).

So everyone is leaving basically? Sound plan Woodward.
sell everyone/let them go on a free except everyone from the Fergie era. Rebuy Rooney, Darren Gibson, Tom Cleverly and anyone else who is still playing. Make Carrick and Scholes unretire. 2019 Champions.

Although he'd probably be an upgrade over Rom and I've always felt that his game was perfect for the PL,he's a bit on the old side for the profile of player Ole was described as wanting this summer...

I would've gladly taken him in a heartbeat 2-4 years ago

Here, there, everywhere...

:lol: I bet you nothing of that sort will happen. This club is not capable of making whole sale changes. We have neither the resources nor the nous to get it done.

Four or five will move on and a three or four will be added. Here's my guess:

To leave: Valencia, Rojo, Darmian, and may be Bailly & Sanchez
Incoming: RB, CM, an attacking addition & a CB if Bailly leaves.

Mata, Herrera and De Gea will sign new contracts. Pogba will stay another season.

Quote me in it.

This transfer window is going to be almost as unbearable as the end of our season.

Actually, it would be shrewd to sign him on a 2 year contract as a stop gap while we upgrade CMs, CB, RW and RB. CF is also a problem position but there is a paucity of good strikers available, and we might not have the budget for it.
