  1. Joao Neves

    The EPL is superior though so how is it drivel? Any team buying from Portugal is taking a risk that the player looks class at that level but that wouldn't translate to the absolute highest level. It's the same as a premier league team buying from the Championship. Will a team choose to pay it -...
  2. Joao Neves

    The reality is no player from the Portuguese league (and so limited proven ability) should have a £100m price tag. The talent is plain to see but the quality of the opposition, in the main, is vastly inferior to the EPL. For £70m, I'd be open to this!
  3. Who replaces Ten Hag?

    Sack EtH tonight and bring Potter in until the end of the season. Give him an indication that the long term job could be his depending on how he performs. Know it feels like Ole all over again but I can't cope any more!!
  4. How good was Paul Ince

    Ince was fantastic. United captain, England captain. Reputation tarnished due to playing for Liverpool but he was one of our best box to box midfielders in PL era for sure.
  5. Striker options?

    I like the idea of Jonathan David. Young, last year of contract (in the summer) and can play out wide so can get enough games
  6. How good was Dwight Yorke?

    United's Ronaldinho. What I mean by that is incredibly high bar but for a very short time. Was incredible for a couple of seasons
  7. Adidas x Stone Roses to release Manchester United collection (Entrance music discussion at OT also)

    Nev wearing a lot of this stuff on his YouTube thing with Carra, Keano and Wrighty
  8. What do we still need? Aka The never ending story

    A senior management team (owner and DOF) to create a culture, ethos and desired style of play A manager that fits with the culture, ethos and style of play desired (it could be ETH) Scouting that looks for the players that will specifically fit with the culture, ethos and style of play...
  9. Who replaces Ten Hag?

    Post of 2023!!! Was reading the other comments about to write the exact same thing, less eloquently. No point hiring a new manager until we look at the other steps otherwise we'll just be hiring the wrong guy. Again.
  10. Midfield: Amrabat or McTominay?

    IMO Amrabat is significantly better than McT but is also significantly inferior to what we need. If we want to play possession based dynamic football, we HAVE to play single pivot. Look at City, look at Arsenal - both looking for control, both utilising a single pivot. Arsenal moved to this...
  11. At what point are we going to acknowledge that we're not an elite side anymore?

    Elite sides are cyclical. Liverpool - currently an elite side. They weren't for 20 years. Man City - currently an elite side. They weren't for a long time. We're an elite club and we always will be one. An elite club has the infrastructure and budget to have elite sides for a sustained period...
  12. Everton vs Manchester United

    Hard to coach things when all of your players are all over the world on international duty
  13. Club Sale | It’s done!

    A lot of people here giving their opinions as facts! Like you, I don't have any facts about this but I do know for a fact that you can own 25% of a business but have control. I would expect the shares to be reconfigured and the INEOS shares to have full voting rights (making decisions) whilst...
  14. The RedCafe Boxing Thread

    Don't understand the annoyance with this. It's not REALLY boxing. It's as close to boxing as WWE is to wrestling. But who cares, if there is an audience for it then let them all crack on. Nobody is being robbed, the crowd seemed to lap it all up and the competitors made good money for what is...
  15. Ivan Toney

    I'll wait for him to give the nod to his mates about where he's going and lump on that!
