The big difference between last year and this summer would be the trajectory we're on. No CL last season vs. CL in the summer. A new coach last season, an established, successful coach this summer. Barca is also more successful, so there's that. But nonetheless, things changed. Whether that...

Isn’t it the opposite? It’s really short sighted to not take the money now for an improbable title push with a player that is hardly instrumental for that title run. If we can get good money now while having a cheap replacement in line it gives us more wiggle room in the summer to truly address...

Not United quality yet, but Leandro Morgalla from 1860 Munich, my local club, has had a meteoric rise. He just turned 18 3 days ago and has been a starter since the second half of last season (allthough in the 3. Bundesliga). Very well rounded CB with solid height, excellent pace while being...

Dubravka 5/10 Not really feeling this. I guess we needed a backup but didn't need to leave it till the last days of the window. Don't think it will matter but a more coordinated approach like City with Ortega would have been nice. Malacia 10/10 Young developing player on a position of relative...

It's saying that on average United would score 2.16 goals based on the chances they've created. It's an early attempt to quantify football with numbers but is very noisy and shouldn't be relied upon itself. But it's somewhat helpful to identify a run of good luck by consistently outperforming...

He's on loan till summer.

He's out of contract in the summer. He's young, tall and left-footed. Lot's of injuries somewhat derailed his career but he's definately worth a punt.

Of course he would. He can already sign a deal for the summer and announced he will leave. 6m for half a year is a decent price for BMG.

It's also Leverkusen is in a much better position than other clubs. Yes the pandemic hurt everyone, but Leverkusen did sell Havertz for big money and thus aren't required to sell even for big money. Tapsoba has 5 more years on his contract and Leverkusen has time in their favor. It would...

Try more like 60m or more. He's got 5 more years on his contract without a release clause. Leverkusen know exactly what they have here.

Big talent but barely played for Atalanta Bergamot yet. We were linked to him previously iirc.

I'm sure Fred also makes significantly more.

Yes and it was an outlier season with a very good squad (that was raided the following window). It's just not practical for Ajax to have a squad capable of winning the CL given the TV-money and attractiveness of the dutch league.

I mean Ajax are in the Netherlands and Dortmund are in Germany. Ajax has about a 0% chance of becoming a long term threat to win international titles. Dortmund are trying to move past the 'selling club' image and are looking to challenge nationally and internationally. They have no actual...

Lindelöf looks comfortable running with the ball.
