Utterly depressing to possibly lose one of our best talents to a rival. Going to be riots when we don't properly reinvest the money in this window.
Chelsea too, who have sold us utter crap recently.

That was obvious sarcasmShocker!
I don’t think we do. We trust in youth and those guys earning their wages. Those on large wages not doing enough to earn it either show some real commitment and performances, leave or rot in the reserves. Us as fans accept we’ve wasted a large proportion of our money and that we need a long term project which will mean mediocrity for a few years, not quick fixes such as selling our young talented players.Then how do we improve this frankensquad squad without any money coming in?
You are narrowing the stats down to suit your narrativeHow is including goals scored against the likes of Barnsley helpful and not blatant stat padding to suit your narrative?
The simple fact is that he can't do it in the Premier League or Europe.
You’re having a nightmare on this threadMost of them are probably replying to dumb posts like this.
Utter rubbish comment. He’s 20years old and Berbaclass of Redcafe has given his verdict that he’s shite.
Do you think Mainoo can do it? Amad? Mainoo has been terrible this season, Amad has been great this year but overall no real better stats than Garnacho.
Hojlund, may as well sell him too, Zirkzee, useless, can’t do it in PL. The list goes on.
If we were bringing in an Isak then fair enough. I’d not be happy but would understand it. We’ll probably bring in the young LWB who’ll need the rest of the season to acclimatise and a loan for some over the hill striker ala Ighalo.Yeah defo sounds like he’s off. One things for sure we better be planning on bringing in a replacement for him. Our attack is terrible as it is, we can’t afford to be losing one of the few bright sparks we have in there.
So sell them first. Shouldn’t be a science rocket.He stands out because we have so many bad players.
You need interest for that.So sell them first. Shouldn’t be a science rocket.
Including the cup games and fecking charity shield is stat padding.You are narrowing the stats down to suit your narrativeIncluding stats from all competitions is not narrowing anything down, it’s giving a full picture.
How many of those other 72 U21s are doing it in the PL?
Still an utter rubbish comment to make, 25th best g/a contributions in top 5 leagues. We score like a goal a game!1. I posted a list of the best 20-year-olds by goal contribution in the top 5 leagues which he was 25th on.
2. Amad has 6 goals and 6 assists in the Premier League this season in 20 appearances, paying mostly RWB.
3. Mainoo isn't relevant to the discussion because he isn't an attacker who is judged on attacking output like Garnacho.
4. Hoijlund looks quite useless yes. More than Garnacho but would be unsellable at the moment.
Dorgu is seperate to Garnacho. We don't need to sell him to buy Dorgu.If the money gets spent on Cunha or Gyokeres then fine. But if it gets spent on Dorgu or some other unknown entity then feck me we are stupid.
I thought Mctominay was sold to balance the books. How bad are the books if we have to sell one of our more exciting talents?
Seeing Garnacho leave but Antony stay is a kick in the teeth to the fans.
How do you know?Dorgu is seperate to Garnacho. We don't need to sell him to buy Dorgu.
We owe over £300m in transfer fees to other clubs. We have very little cash, and a lot of debt. Things are not good.If the money gets spent on Cunha or Gyokeres then fine. But if it gets spent on Dorgu or some other unknown entity then feck me we are stupid.

What metric should we use to judge him then if G+A is not to your liking?Still an utter rubbish comment to make, 25th best g/a contributions in top 5 leagues. We score like a goal a game!
Amad’s stock is high right now. We should sell him and get as much as we can, he might drop off next year.
Mainoo in another position isn’t irrelevant it’s a cash cow playing crap so we should sell in your eyes. How does he compare to under 21s in top 5 leagues?
And you’re just guessing that Hojlund would be unsellable.
No, you’re just taking them out to try and prove your point. But it doesn’t work because you are comparing him to other players not in the PL.Including the cup games and fecking charity shield is stat padding.

I’d rather just use what we have this season and reevaluate in the summer.
Season is a write off anyway.
They have cleared enough room in the PSR calculations by triggering Maguires +1 on his contract and then the saved money from loaning Antony out to Betis.How do you know?
I'm comparing him to anyone in the top 5 league which includes the Premier League mate.No, you’re just taking them out to try and prove your point. But it doesn’t work because you are comparing him to other players not in the PL.
You’ve chosen your own criteria for the metric you’re using. So the stats your giving are irrelevant.What metric should we use to judge him then if G+A is not to your liking?
Amad's stock is high because he is a better player.
Yeah, it's my opinion that Hojlund is unsellable right now, there doesn't appear to be any interest in him. We would also need a good chunk of money back to be able to sell him too due to the massive fee we paid.
That clears that up, didn’t realise you were the CFO.They have cleared enough room in the PSR calculations by triggering Maguires +1 on his contract and then the saved money from loaning Antony out to Betis.
He can't do it as well as his age peers in their respective leagues yes.You’ve chosen your own criteria for the metric you’re using. So the stats your giving are irrelevant.
Amad is currently the better player, last year Garnacho was, next year who knows.
To say Garnacho can’t do it in the PL and Europe is pure nonsense.
You clearly don’t rate him and want him to be sold, fair enough, but your really going all in on him and just making stuff up.
Be interesting to compare the fees between him and Mount who had a year left on his deal when it's done.Chelsea too, who have sold us utter crap recently.
Yes but you’re using those stats to say ‘he can’t do it in the PL’ but most of those guys you’re comparing him to do not play in the PL either, so it doesn’t work.I'm comparing him to anyone in the top 5 league which includes the Premier League mate.
Let's make this simple.Yes but you’re using those stats to say ‘he can’t do it in the PL’ but most of those guys you’re comparing him to do not play in the PL either, so it doesn’t work.
Last season as a 19 year old he was 4th on the list of players his age or younger for goals and assists in just the top 5 leagues, while he was the only one who played in the premier league. Full seasons worth of data. How do you explain that one?I'm comparing him to anyone in the top 5 league which includes the Premier League mate.
I offered a reasonable explanation and you have no real response. Cool.That clears that up, didn’t realise you were the CFO.
Then it would appear that he has regressed no?Last season as a 19 year old he was 4th on the list of players his age or younger for goals and assists in just the top 5 leagues, while he was the only one who played in the premier league. Full seasons worth of data. How do you explain that one?
Cause it’s just words, show some solid inside information?I offered a reasonable explanation and you have no real response. Cool.
Zirkzee shouldn’t be here regardless of other doings, Højlund should be a backup and given time to determine if he’s going to kick on, Mount might be unable to play professional football based on his muscle twangs, and Eriksen’s time has come and gone.Trying to offer a balanced view on this topic, I don’t think we should be losing a 20 year old who has been one of our stand out young players in last 3 years, however his head has been turned, he’s clearly has an ego which most young footballers have and possibly is at stage where if we keep him, his agent will want a new contract on £100-150k per week like Kobbies’s Agent?
The club has created this problem for themselves by giving huge contracts to underperforming players for the last decade, we need a cultural reset and if Chelsea want to pay us £60/65m + add on of £10m + 20% sell on fee, as much as this is could backfire and Garnaucho develops into a genuine Elite inverted striker at Chelsea, if the £60m allows the club to reinvest at £180–200m then we must let the lad go and try and rebuild our attacking first 11 front three which currently is no better than a bottom 5 PL team in terms of options and ability to create and score PL goals.
Zirkzee, Hojlund, Mount, Eriksen
Should all be bench players at United with only Amad at RWB and Bruno starting at CM.
In this fecking shitty team it’s almost a miracle.Let's make this simple.
Do you think 4 goals and assists combined is good enough in 21 Premier League appearances?
I thought he couldn't play in this system? Looked as dangerous as Amad to me. So many players want the boot before this kid.
