Indeed. Also, selling players, even if they're shite, doesn't make the team any better. The team getting better only comes with improving existing players or signing superior ones. Painfully obvious, I know.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?

Oh great - just in time to play us on Sunday
Can we not keep Fellaini at least until the first leg of the PSG game? The Chinese transfer window ends on the 28th Feb and he's our fourth best midfielder.
I was so confused, I did a Wikipedia search on that myself.
Five different professional footballers playing Europe called Adama Traore right now. Three in France, one in Turkey, one in England.
Peaked early didn't he.
What's with all the loan deals flying around? A lot of high profile clubs seems to be involved
Anywhere but Spurs, surely a crazy idea for any money. Palace would be good.
Frankly you'd think we need all the firepower we can get, guess Sarri doesn't rate him at all.
What time does the window close?
Was hoping we’d try and loan Batshuayi. Have no striker if Jimenez is injured
What’s with the username? You need to visit the thread I made yesterday
11pm UK time mate.
I still can’t believe Sam Allardyce is 6ft 3ins. I always thought he was “Big Sam” based on his girth.
Thanks Vadim
I don't understand this new trend of loaning veteran players.

PSG have been right wankers in this saga. I reckon if they'd tried to attain him at the start of the window we would have secured a deal.
I assumed he was hung like a horse.
I didn’t even know they were after him. How much have they offered?
Apparently it's gone from 21 to 26m. We were holding out for around 30m. Thing is, we've had no time to get in a replacement + Silva has been told any transfers this window will be funded by sells which is why we wanted as much as we could get.

Brighton even thought about asking Southampton for Stuart Armstrong - but realized that a combination of Tudor and Stuart could create tension
For weeks there's been rumours that the deal wasn't possible because Everton didn't have replacements (trying to get Doucouré). Gueye probably wasn't a priority option either for PSG in the first place.
Doesn’t seem like a lot of money in the current market. How do you rate the player? Surely your rich oweners don’t want to sell first team players due to their ambitions.
His brother? And that's an awful LV scarf.
Looks like Batshuayi to Palace is pretty much done. Could be a good signing for Palace

Reports Acosta left DC United training camp to travel to PSG and the deal fell through.
Even had a medical at Clairefontaine but no deal in the end.
Wonder how that must feel. Leaves training camp. So long suckers, I'm better than you, I'm going to PSG. Shows up tomorrow. I'm back...
Must feel like shit if you thought the deal was as good as done. He can ask Gueye and Allan about it.
Apparently Real Madrid are sniffing around Rashford. Might be a good idea to get rid of him now, while his stock his high.
