Long-term contracts and a lot of lucrative player sales
So that's a no, then
Because bum lickers like Murtough paid 60M for the likes of Mason Mount.
Nobody matched SJR in the 18 months prior. Hard to imagine someone jumps in now and pays massively over the odds.
The normalisation of treateing loyal hardworking staff as dispensable is something I'll never understand. Removing experienced full time staff which a place like OT needs more than anywhere due to the complexity of the place you then lose the next tier which is often the most important the casual staff that work a circuit of stadiums and bring a huge level of experience and dependability and who can oversea the necessary evil that is agency staff, that's the blueprint for every other stadium and Ineos feel they can do without it, it's failing, a one star and now a two star food hygiene level for a place that asks £2000 per head in many areas is insane.
You could be the best in the business in fairness and you're going to struggle to shift the Rashfords and Casemiros without basically buying them out of their contracts. 24 months ago you might have got someone in Saudi to put up the wages but who is going to want to pay them even 50% of their current now?
I think both could tempt Saudi clubs and the current malaise at the club could work in our favour in seeing them jump ship. Zirkzee I think would be happy to leave now. We live in hope because without any of these movements we are fecked.
They used loopholes in the rules that by now have been closed (like extremely long contract durations to lower annnual amortization).
Any injection of capital into United is also much more messy, since Ratcliffe doesn't own 100%.
Surely if we sell Rashford and Garnacho for close to 90 million we can buy two other players in return. Casemiro going as well according to twitter.
Do you think of Ashworth? Sacking him was absolutely right, chasing him was a massive blunder feom the beginning. A club in need of a massive clearout signing a DoF who has zero experience in sacking underperforming staff was a predictable disaster and in my opinion is the main reason why EtH was allowed to stay, why the squad was even further optimized for him and why United's season is going as badly as it is.
Because he believes that he can make this squad work with his system. It's a sign of confidence. If it's reasonable confidence remains to be seen however, it's not looking very good right now.
That’s essentially what he said.
How would sacking Berrada and Wilcox help? Also, it’s been 6 months. Feels a hell of a lot longer but Berrada and Ashworth only started work in July.
Why INEOS?
Their record with their other football clubs is underwhelming. If anything it shows that not all sports are equal and what makes you successful at sailing might not make you successful in football.
Maybe they will if we can convince them they are costing too much unnecessary money?!
I've lost a good amount of confidence in them after they retained ETH when it was obvious he was going to fail.
This season is clearly unimportant to them, from the moment they gambled on Erik.
Maybe they will if we can convince them they are costing too much unnecessary money?!
Exactly. He would have done that change in the summer because EtH failed to qualify for the CL. Which would have been a more reasonable approach.
