Atletico Mineiro, that is.
Yes, i would throw money on quality and Eriksen is quality especially in our case. When you can't lure players with success then you must lure them with money.
And all players play for money. Difference is only that less talented players work harder on the pitch( to compensate talent) so romantic and young fans describe that as "playing for the badge". That shit about "playing for the badge" is for 10 years old kids.
I think they are trying to say United could use player stats compiled by the leagues, opta, third parties or themselves to help inform their scouting department which players to sign. It's just the article they have written is absolutely garbage.
What happens is you decide what attributes are most important for each position and what is overvalued and undervalued by clubs. You target players with strong attributes in what is undervalued stats. I assume almost all clubs already do this to varying degrees. At a guess I would say Leicester are the most obviously candidate, pulling players from obscurity that go on to become very good premier league players. Think Kante and interceptions for example.
I think it would take a while if United implemented this strategy for it to show results.
Having just read moneyball I wonder which clubs take this use of data to the extremes.
This was it but it has morphed into more of a transfer chat thread
Maybe because he doesn't want to join us? All the noises out of his camp suggest he fancies a change and to go to either Italy or Spain at end of season.
Spurs to United right now is a sideways step. Neither side will come close to winning a title for years.
I think he'll go to psg. Money and a league winners medal.
Yeah if he really was bothered by our deficiencies then deals would have been getting worked on in the background before the window opened. January 1st should have been medicals and signing.
Barella, Sensi, Tonali... these guys are hoovering up every top young Italian midfielder. That said, they did let Zaniolo go so there’s that.
Yeah, we rejected him - riiiiiiiight. What a joke this club is. Can we go much lower than where we are now? Inevitably Ole will be the fall guy in the next few weeks. He'll get the boot and we might even get Poch to replace him. Won't make a bit of difference. He'll fail too because of the circus around him. Sad times.
Yawn. False.
Isn't mail banned ? Looks like pure press gossip.
That profile didn't fit Ole when he was a player, he was neither British, nor any of that
I don't think there were many United players who were more loyal to United (considering he was used as a sub regularly, the "super" prefix notwithstanding). I think the summer deal fell through because Sporting was asking more than what Woodward wanted to pay, and he also stubbornly thought we had "enough" midfielders, including Pogba.What is this bollocks?
We're in for Cavani, Eriksen and Umtiti? This is just a list of Ain't Gon' Happen.
Let's have some realistic January targets.

The Mail churning out the rubbish as usual.
I've just read some news (referencing The Times as source) that OGS plans to sign 6 players this transfer window. We can't even sign a single one.
It's like we're briefing to dangle carrots infront of the fans to direct attention away from the real problem. Exactly why I think it's pointless to sack Ole at this stage. Until there are changes in the way the club is run, manager rotation will do nothing but set us back even further. At least we're seeing a clear out of players that should no longer be here. Long may it continue.
6 players in a month ?
Even if we were competent that would be a huge ask.

aye maybe on football manager. I can't imagine us ever making 6 signings in one window again under the current regime.He made it clear we are not even in consideration. Which is why we are not even trying. The rest is just Sky trying to make news out of it. Seems like Eriksen wants to leave EPL, so not necessarily a dig at us, but on a more global scale - we shouldn't expect any established player to join us, while we are in this state. Not going to happen.
Not according to the OP, deservedly in Tier 4 though. But figured if the thread is full of Utdreport tweets that Mail is allowed as well.
Not by his agent though, he's been pretty much always firm that Bale doesn't want to move. The Madrid media are the ones who have fed the rumours the most about him leaving.
