How would a swap facilitate those signings?
Woodward and the Glazers will be looking at it purely from an economical point of view:
Sancho + Telles + Upamecano = 108 + 18.2 + 40 = £166.2 million
Vs.
Delle swap + Telles + Upamecano = additional 27 + 18.2 + 40 = £85.2 million

Feels like players, manager AND press are calling the owners out. I can’t remember this happening before?

If we lose to Brighton, this will go into overdrive too.

Obviously Jose called the owners out, but the press lapped that up as Jose having a meltdown is in their interests
Dont look that far forward, another performance like yesterday we may be having the conversation after playing Luton

Ok now I get you. But Dele Ali wouldn’t play RW or even RWF. He’d be another overpaid numpty being shoehorned into a position he’s not suited to.

James is still young enough to be given a chance to improve and a bigger and better squad would help with his development. Yes he was poor yesterday, but surely the club should be looking to sell Pereira, Jones, Rojo, Lingard et al before selling James. It may well be that 12 months from now we can be absolutely certain he's not good enough and regret not taking £12m of Leeds money, but maybe we keep and he develops into a pivotal squad player. I do think Ole needs to pick his games better e.g. at home to a team who sit back is just about the worst kind of game for James to play in and that's on Ole.
To be honest, I wouldn't sell Dan James as we are light in attack. But he was awful towards the end of the season plus the game against Crystal Palace yesterday. If he is still performing like he was this season, he isn't good enough and should be sold. Otherwise it will be another player we can't sell. Its pretty much a make or break season for Dan James. Personally don't think he is good enough. Offers nothing but pace.

Semedo is brillaint going foward. I thought he'd end up at a bigger club. Fair play to Wolves, thats a decent signing.

If we finally got rid of Lingard, only to replace him with Delle fecking Alli I would headbutt myself to sleep against a wall.

Jesus that would be a great signing for them. Wouldn't be a shock if Wolves finished ahead of us if we don't get Sancho and Telles in at a minimum.
No need to worry, the Adidas contract doesn't come under threat unless we miss the champions league two years in a row. This season is about funneling Champions league money to Tampa

Huh? Alli is significantly better than Lingard. He's actually productive in the final third. Not that it matters as we don't need him as we're stacked in his position.

Lingard suits his shithouse style a little bit better because of his work-rate.
Hes not better than what they already have in Lucas. Surely they can do better than Lingard

He literally has about 3 assists 80+ league appearances for Barcelona. He has no final ball. “Brilliant” might be overstating it a little.
