Nah I doubt it. That said we will have significant funds especially as Ronaldo will be gone.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
What? A young Rooney is not enough to win the league, Rooney didn’t score 20 goals in the PL till 2009-10.
I hope I’m wrong, but I have that awful feeling that he might will be a success in the end. When I’ve watched him, there seems to be some small pieces missing, and I think that when he get his stuff together, he will score a huge amount of goals.
He was 24 in 2009? and we won the league and CL double with him as our striker a year before that.
A false 9 type striker who can play anywhere along the front 3 plus as a 9, who is incredibly creative with pace and power and a workhorse to boot. He would be the perfect modern striker.
in an era when the likes of Firminho and Bernardo Silva seems to dictate play and are crucial to league dominating sides when on form…Rooney would be devastating
Oh thought you meant young Rooney as in from 18-22, even though he was still young in 2009 as you say. He would be great but don’t think enough to win the league, Man City for example have a player in Haaland who will end up maybe the best goal scorer the league has seen, and arguably the most creative midfielder to play in the league in De Bruyne. He would be devastating though as you say, but even then the teams Rooney played in had maybe 4-5 players who could play in a world xi, United have none at the moment so a single Rooney wouldn’t be enough.
I dont think you need world class players around Rooney. Look at City without Haaland today, a world class striker covers up so much and elevates others beyond their level.
Yeah I don’t deny we’ve been crap this season. I don’t think that’s because of Nunez though. There are plenty of other issues there.
Liverpool 1:2 Leeds
He’s shat the bed with that chance.
from watching him, i think he’s one of those kinds of players that if he has too long to think about it, he’ll fluff his lines. he’s far better off having to think fast and try to finish without having any time to think and that’s when his first touch lets him down.
Yeah he really doesn’t like thinking about what he needs to do. It’s not a good weakness to have though!
Come on donkey of chaos. You've done the first part of the chaos, now unleash the other part in the second half!! 
This guy has insane pace
He has so much pace that he forgets to dribble the ball sometimes
Great, he should try the 100m.
great for his xG la’
don’t think liverpool have that after spunking that on him.
I’ll set them up, you knock ‘em down.
would he? Didn’t exactly do a lot of running did he
Love the chaos. Just the two missed 1v1 as they drop more points.
Agent of chaos indeed
Agent of chaos indeed
Can't wait to someone comes in and tells us everyone will have egg on their faces end of season for pointing out his limitations
Another absolutely shite performance. Missing massive chances has cost Liverpool the game today.
Aside from being a foot taller than everybody else, youd need to check the teamsheets to find out if hes actually on the field. Every time I watch Liverpool he looks like he's on a different team to the rest of them.
Two goals with his head were enough for fans to change opinion about him. Bloody hell.
100 mil for bad version of Oliver Bierhoff
100 mil for bad version of Oliver Bierhoff
Absolute dogshit with his feet. Cannot trap a bag of cement.
Thats called a bad player
he'll get his stats but he made liverpool bad again
MLBA

Would love to see him and Lukaku up top in a two.
That was an amazing ball by TAA, wow.
The one time Trent looks like his old self all season and Nunez does that
Master of Chaos. 100 million worth of chaos.
Bierhoff had far better technique. More like a 100M Andy Carroll.
Lukaku taught us that stats don't tell you everything.Cyberman doesn't look at stats. He uses his own eyes, as do the others on this forum. As long as he scores one, likely yet another winning goal, but misses a handful and falls over ungracefully then everything is fine.
It obvious Nunez isn't a top player.
That winner didn’t arrive. The misses certainly did. He fell over ungracefully. Everything isn’t fine. It’s glorious.Cyberman doesn't look at stats. He uses his own eyes, as do the others on this forum. As long as he scores one, likely yet another winning goal, but misses a handful and falls over ungracefully then everything is fine.
I don't think this aged like how you wanted it to.Cyberman doesn't look at stats. He uses his own eyes, as do the others on this forum. As long as he scores one, likely yet another winning goal, but misses a handful and falls over ungracefully then everything is fine.
He will always fluff those chances. He isn’t technically sound enough. First time shots would be where he excels
He’s still shite though
He’s still shite though
The poor man's Origi. Although I'm not sure how that works when you pay 100m
Seems to have poor instincts in front of goal. Every top striker would have continued to go wide here or curled it around the keeper.
Why turn back into a goalkeeper and a CB who is recovering.
