He’s potentially a brilliant player and still a good age. We wouldn’t have sold him for double that 3 years ago. It’s a good deal for them. I hope we can spark a bidding war because he’s going to be one of those what if players when he gets into a more dominant teamRumours in the news now that 3-4 bigger clubs are interested, we are looking at 50M.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
Yes. It is.I don't know about all that but Grannies and Chips is an awesome combo
(Or so I hear. I have a...friend who says so.)
Yes, it would be stupid if it were for that reason alone.
But let's get back to the real world:
United don't actually believe he's done nothing wrong. They don't actually believe he's some sort of victim here. And they certainly don't sit on any evidence that would make such a stance (Greenwood is innocent, there's nothing to see here, just a series of unfortunate circumstances) plausible in the slightest.
You mean one of those 'what if he hadn't been a disgusting (alleged) violent domestic abuser?' type players?
The scum saying he's put his UK house up for rent.

I'll always repeat what I'd heard on the grapevine a while ago.
United had massive concerns about Greenwood going back to around 2020/2021.
On the pitch, he was doing well but there were clear issues off the pitch long before this story came out.
That was quite a common concern, especially when that video came out of him in the car with his partner. Then what happened on England duty. There were red flags everywhere and think it was an MEN article who brought to light it started to seep into his professionalism under Ole.
I don't think any one truly imagined it would be as bad to the extent to what came out, but I hope that is a lesson to all when it comes to managing young men in the future and taking note of their behaviour.
Yeah.
There were stories about his behaviour going back to well before he made his debut for the first team.
As I've said before, when the Iceland thing made the news, it wasn't particularly surprising.
I could be misremembering, but didn't it take a while for Southgate to actually call him up, too? He made his debut for us in 2018 and only got his first cap in August 2020.I feel like there was something behind the scenes with "bad vibes" there too.
So I think within that MEN article, there was a lot of noise that either his dad/agent were pretty demanding with his inclusion in England squads. I.e. if he's not guaranteed game time, he won't bother. I think Southgate didn't fancy adding his character to the squad in general, gave him a chance and the Iceland incident happened. Foden subsequently apologized and Greenwood didn't think he'd done anything that warranted an apology, allegedly.
I don't remember the exact details, but there was one particular story that did the rounds back in the day (again: well before he became a first team player) about the behaviour of United youth players abroad (training camp).
And it wasn't about drinking or anything like that - it was specifically about behaviour towards women.
Yeah, I know - that sounds very vague.
But the point is that the Iceland thing came as no surprise to people with some insight into his time as an academy player.

Looks like he is leaving Getafe for good. Maybe Napoli, Juventus or Dortmund bound.
Anyway, Ineos should make an announcement one way or another soon. Season already ended.
Agreed. The club should announce their intention as soon as possible instead of leaving it til the end again.
Hope this is part of end of season review this week on the future of ETH, Greenwood and Sancho. Hope that with Ineos this time round we will have a swift and decisive decision for us to prepare well for next season.
Safe to say I think he was told he will not be coming back to Man Utd.
He was renting it anyway wasn't he?
Fair point, I scanned it and assumed he was letting a place he owned out. It's not even clear from the article when he last lived there.
They say the bolded like it was a reason to stay.
It's the Sun mate,
They feed on scraps.
So in the end of the day, his Getafe loan figures are as follows:
- 33 matches played
- 10G + 6A = 16 goal contributions
- 181 minutes per G/A
- 6 yellow cards, 1 straight red
Nothing spectacular, but on the other hand, only Bruno and Rasmus delivered better stats for United this season.

How many penalties and how many v semi pro players?
Not sure about semi pro players. He scored 2G in 3 Copa del Rey matches, and 8G+6A in La Liga.
With regards to penalties - 2 out of 3 scored.
Welcome Home
Can I just remind people that his girlfriend posted an image with blood all over her face saying this is what Mason Greenwood does to me?
I urge people to listen to that audio again. I don't know is that time has made people forget how vicious it was or because he's a valuable commodity at our club, you choose to forget it. Just think of someone like P Diddy, that's the level of man he is.

So 6 non penalty goals in 33 appearances.
He’s got a non-pen goal every 5 and a half games and an assist slightly worse than every 4 games. I can’t see Utd risking last summer’s furore this summer for that kind of return.
Its a ongoing debate and depends where your moral compass is set?
Probably the only person that really matters in a restorative way is the victim.
I guess its a job and whether you want someone who has alleged committed a crime (but not convicted) working for you.
There are thousands of fans across the world who have or done worst. Should they no longer be fans?

It's crass, but if they openly say "we're getting rid" then it weakens their hand during any negotiation with another club.
I think he'll go, but I wouldn't expect to hear anything from the club until we have a deal in place with a buyer.
Olympian level mental gymnastics
“we’d love to move to be close to better schools, but the house has so much of our history. grandad hung himself on that very bannister, the cleaner drowning in the pool. it would be such a wrench to get rid of it.”
Ideally they wouldn’t be fans yes.
190 min per G/A in La Liga, or 222 min per non-penalty G/A. That’s better than Garnacho and Rashford delivered this season (significantly better than Rashford if we deduct his penalties).
Only Bruno and Hojlund performed better (both on absolute and per minute basis) this year, and there is also Amad with 3 G/A in 467 min
They’re not representing their clubs.
Fans dont represent their clubs? You just have.
Announce early that we're getting rid and move on.
One circus that we need to avoid this summer.

Fans are not employees. There's loads of horrendous cnuts that support us but not much we can do about that aside from banning them from Old Trafford. And they do get banned by the way.
I hope he will be back, deserves another chance.
I think you know what I mean. If i batter my wife it’s “Joe bloggs from x has been arrested for battery” if a footballer does it, “Joe bloggs, Manchester United and England footballer has been arrested”
Not a good look
So I'm saying he's allegedly physically assaulted and sexually assaulted his girlfriend and your argument is but some fans have done worse?
He just played his second chance
Rashford and Garnacho, and indeed most of Utd’s forward line, famously went for loads and loads of matches without any goals or assists at the beginning of the season, I’m sure you remember. I’m not sure of the value of comparing greenwood against a non-functioning front line in a team that had their lowest finish for 30 years. Greenwood’s numbers are nowhere near good enough. Rashford numbers are nowhere near good enough either. Compare Greenwood to someone at the level Utd are aiming to be.
