With all the positivity around selling the club, having Arab money with talks of Kane and Rice, honestly I can remember feeling this shit about a transfer window. We arent now talking about being better, we are struggling to maintain where we were last season...

Aren't we still 3rd top spenders in the league? Arsenal just ahead.
Without basically having to sell anyone.
I’ve said it before but this is eerily similar to Mourinho’s last few months.
An absolute shambles of a transfer window and then poor performances kick in.
How long before people start turning on EtH when the results start going downhill.

I’m not having a go at Mount. He’s a good player at a good price. But we clearly have other priorities that need fixing first.
While I think City and Chelsea’s selling is dodgy as feck, they do manage to sell their academy players for solid amounts. As well as first team players…
We are either incapable or unwilling for some reason, neither being a good sign.
Hard to follow this one with so many contradicting reports around.
Hang on lads i thought we were a disgrace due to offering the loan fee so low etc?
Fab getting player agent info, Athletic getting United contact info.
Fabrizio will have more than one source of information in Italy.
You’d expect Fab to be connected to Fiorentina as well though
So much clickbait nonsense out there these days.
Most of it tends to be about United because a lot of our fans will react to just about anything negative.

I’ll hold my hand up. Totally fell for that and and lost it at the club. So much BS out there it’s hard not to get misled at times.
Hopefully what Fab is saying is correct and we made no such ridiculous loan offer.
And we manage to get Amrabat over the line smoothly.
Great....thats like saying we spent the same as city over the last 10 years.
100% this is on the Glazers...fecking scum
And that's before we even mention redeveloping the stadium.
Not really
It’s on poor transfers selected by Eric and previous managers
They’ve given money to spend
And Woodward with his value protection scheme that made every player a millstone around our necks
We're taking the piss with this.
I get that people want to see progress happening faster but I actually think we've been tidying up the squad pretty quickly given how bad the mismanagement has been. Yes, people want to see Maguire, Martial and McTominay gone but realistically it was always going to take 2-3 years to move everyone on. Along the way, we will also get some transfers wrong or miss out on a target.
Since Ten Hag was appointed we have massively reduced the bloated squad and cut the wage bill. I think we could have sold or released some 15+ players this window but it was always optimistic.
Regardless, in the last 12 months, the following have been sold or released.
De Gea
Henderson
Kovar
Grant
Williams
Laird
Telles
Jones
Tuanzebe
Fred
Mata
Pogba
Lingard
Elanag
Iqbal
Garner
Savage
Pereira
Chong
Matic
Ronaldo
Cavani
That is 22 players. Even if you exclude some of the younger players there are at least 12-13 senior first-team players.
The list of must-sell players is significantly shorter than it has been for years and even then the players below are still somewhat useful in a pinch.
Maguire
McTominay
Bailly - probably going this window
Van de Beek
Martial

It's what Italian clubs do to us all the time.
Why on earth are you defending the owners? They have done nothing good for this club, and the money spent on transfers is entirely generated by the club. They haven’t given a single cent to spend.
How long? Have you ventured into his thread?
The Glazers are useless tossers for a number of reasons. But the fact is we have spent huge sums of money over the years, and it has largely been wasted by numerous managers.
Of course it's on the Glazers. Yes we spent money but we have been poor at renewing sponsors and careless with debt management which have compounded our FFP issues.
Ten hag overpaid for one player, the rest are fine.
Huge sums of the clubs money, not the Glazers. Also its
Been wasted because we have no football structure in place to ensure continuity from one manager to another. A lack of foresight and planning as well as ambition have seen this club become a footballing zombie under he Glazers.
The loan offer isn't embarrassing at all. About time we gave Italian clubs a taste of their own medicine.
Glazers out for the lads!
And whose fault is it for failing to hire the right football people to put a proper structure in place instead of giving managers free reign over transfers?
Yes but for some reason Ten Hag will get a pass for spending a lot of money on some questionable signings and the blame will go to Murtagh and co when we scramble around looking for end of window bargains we desperately need
Glazers out, Amrabat in!
I don’t think he can afford to buy the club, dude!
Where’s Joao Felix? Has he moved this window?
Supposedly waiting for Barca. But they don’t seem to want him so he’s at Atletico.
Sell some fecking players!!!
Murtough deserves a lot of blame for being a complete non entity. All he seems to do is negotiate bad deals for players
Best accurate description I've heard
Because posts like yours don’t make sense we spent more than almost every single club on the planet
Klopp turned Liverpool into a monster with less
I want rid but they have given us funds, having different owners wouldnt if stopped eth buying Antony for 80m
Yes it would've, because our transfer strategy under serious owners wouldn't be "hand the manager a blank check and inshallah"
