They should be professional and focus on winning games regardless of whats going on with transfers.
He already did this last season while having a go at Ole aswell
Not a chance, he is negotiating his contract and knows no one can pay him what he currently gets here, at least not until covid is over.
That'll take us having top players in the squad first.
What if you worked for a company that refuses to hire help even though you're all overworked? And all the competing companies across the street are fully staffed with paid vacation days?
Of course not. I still have some faith in him.
Shaw overworked? And he's most likely get paid double than those in competing companies.
See no issue with it at all. It’s not as if it comes as a shock. What would be even worse is if he came out and said the opposite!
He did demand it after last season and didn't get it. So what is your point?
For all we know he was straight on the phone to Ed just minutes after he secured us 3rd place. That would’ve been the ideal time to ask for signings, but it clearly didn’t work if he did.
It did. Last season performance got him 40m signing, and chasing another 120m player. If only Ole doesn't insist on this 120m player, we may get another one or two others. Bruno is supposedly this summer signing also.
You know I'm saying a team as a whole with no depth will be overworked in a season where there are games every 3-4 days. It's not just about Shaw. He said the team needs signings.
Supporters need to do it as well.
I think one player saying it is enough. Anymore may lead to an air of negativity around our players.
Ironic since his position is one we need better players for. You’d think he would be the last one to pipe up about brining in new players when we’ve been linked with a LB all window.
In hindsight Rooney was correct. Perhaps his methods were questionable and as fans we couldn't accept it because Fergie was still in charge.
Negotiation should have started months ago. They should have worked on multiple players in each position which means that by summer we would know how much they would cost, if the players are interested and whom we're signing. Of course clubs may play dirty at the 11th hour or competition might drive the price up. However that wouldn't be an issue as the club could switch to plan B or plan C if needed.
I agree. The more inexperienced a manager is the more support he needs. Let's take extremes as examples. On one hand you've got Lampard who was ridiculously backed during the summer. He can also rely on a DOF whose so efficient that she's almost lethal. On the other hand there's Sir Alex who won the EPL title with Cleverley in midfield.
You are looking at this from a fans pov and not a players £££ pov, most don't care about club silverware and sign because of the silly money they make and personal brand gory .
To be fair he said it before the game not after.
Players haven’t downed tools for goodness bloody sake.
I agree with you.
Can't be happening, @ayushreddevil9 convinced us the club's on track and fans asking for transfers are 'moaners'.
In what world is this a positive?
In the world of sarcasm.
