Dan's wife probably paid the difference after having him under her feet all day for months.

Good stuff! Think it’s too soon for him to impact this summer as such, but in terms of the long term picture I hope we give him time to start moving us in a better direction.
Of course it will impact this summer. He won't have been sat doing nothing.
If Southgate wins the Euros, and EtH is floundering come November...
£5 million plus a photo opp with the 96/97 league trophy
This wins the internet for today
Interesting. Didn't expect this at all, so it's good work by INEOS. Looks professionally done. His input on the transfer window will be invaluable. Now just need Berrada to start working in full capacity.
Did you watch England yesterday?
Did you watch United last season?
What has Southgate ever won?
Dan Ashworth's love and admiration.
Southgate isn't a serious contender for the job.
Shocker that they've suddenly found an agreement now they aren't desperate to fill a £50m PSR hole.
In the discussed scenario he would have won the Euro.
There is absolutely no chance England win the Euros
Agreed but in hypothetical discussions sometimes you have to suspend your disbelief
Great news. I don't think he'll make much difference to this transfer window, but its important that he's in place before the new season starts winding up again.
I just hope that he can somehow help us shift players... every fecking summer I've wanted to see that.
How big was the hole? Because I think they also sold Anderson & Minteh.
Yeah I know, they're the players sold for inflated prices to fill that hole.
Nobody knows (seen people assuming 45-55M) but seeing as though the two transfers weren't enough they seemed pretty desperate to get this done too.
Mystery solved
Villa and the Saudis seem to be involved in some blatant flouting of the rules. I hope both come under scrutiny.
Them pretty much shopping Gordon/Isak must mean it was really bad. I'm no expert but I assume that they could face difficulty next year too?
I actually expect him to hit the ground running and make a difference. Hopefully he was not spending his gardening leave just counting butterflies. He may not have had a chance to coordinate with United much, but he should have at least been preparing to dive in, on a short notice
Hopefully they can share the readouts from that "strategic review" that took forever. Must be one hell of a detailed report
Hopefully. Minteh for £39m is obscene. I wonder what Brighton are getting out of that.
Things are finally falling into place it seems. The worry was this summer window would be lost but now that he starts immediately and already has the review done by Cox, I expect things to pick up rather quickly.
We need to get ourselves into the PSR trouble gang to get some nice sales (ignore the probably even worse buys).
Just seen someone pointing out that they probably banked on Guimares release clause getting paid. Think I agree with that.
If there is any chance, we should pay the money for Isak, he is the best no 9 in the PL in my opinion
Too late now.
They also apparently wanted north of £150m for him so I don’t think there was much chance anyone was paying that
No chance. They quoted Chelsea well over £100M.
Yeah I agree, especially when it was made publically available info a few weeks back.
Would also explain them not considering Jackson in part exchange for Isak for Chelsea, they clearly just wanted/needed a big cash influx. (And also it would have been a crap trade)
Hes worth it (in my opinion) if we could ship Rashford out for 80+m I would have done this, also helps he can play as the left forward too
Saying that I know we have budget constraints but its more wishful thinking.
Mark my words though this guy is the best 9 in the league and is waiting to explode
We didn't have the funds to do it before June 30th.
Good to see he's finally pruned his roses and pulled out all of his weeds.
Great news!
Genuinely thought this would be ongoing in 2025. Shocked it’s sorted with how slow INEOS have been with everything. Glad to be proven wrong on this instance.
The new United begins today.
The new United begins today.
At a severely reduced capacity, find it hard to believe he will have had a lot of room to work with key stakeholders to really try and get a vision together and a proper strategy going forward. Course he will have done bits and pieces (probably lots of Teams meetings), but think it will have been quite shallow against what we need.
I could well be wrong!
