All more mobile than Ronaldo.

If you think Ronaldo is static, God knows what you think of Maguire.

 

[IrishRedDevil]

So bored of this transfer window.

Premier league starting in 5 days and we are 3 signings short.

I'd say 4-5 although some are not as pressing like backup GK

But would say we need ST, RW, CM, RB

Maguire moves plenty, it just takes him ages to get to where he's going

Yep definitely need all of them

Did he not tweet this a few days ago? Groundhog day over and over again

 

[Woodzy]

He’s clearly leaving. The only real concern for us is whether we can get it done before a more attractive team come into the mix. A lot can happen between now and the end of the window.

This tweet was definitely posted this morning. Mahzar's slacking but this saga is jading the best of us.

He also said something very similar a few days back, but this time, the tone seems a little less optimistic.

 

[mazhar13]

Nice have finalised the arrival of Mattia Viti (Empoli) and will be able to accelerate their search for a left-back (Fabiano Parisi, Alex Telles and Jérôme Roussillon are among the players targeted) and a striker (Marcus Thuram, Arnaud Kalimuendo, Alassane Pléa...)

Translation:

• Telles could be loaned out to Nice.
• Brentford are interested in Kasper Dolberg, who could be on his way out of Nice.
• Marcus Thuram is Favre's priority.

Oh sorry it was posted in the FDJ thread this morning but nobody bothered putting here.

I should have checked that thread first, then.

I wouldn't worry about it as there's people that only check here. It wasn't threadmarked and can be impossible to find anything amongst the nonsense unless your reading every page.

Why are we loaning players to watford ffs, they'll be on their third manager by christmas.

Because we are almost incapable of selling players. We've only sold one this summer.

We're not looking to sell Laird as far as I know, we're looking to get him some first team experience. Sending him to a team that's constantly changing managers doesn't seem like the best way to ensure that. We already had Garner going there and losing his place as soon as they inevitably sacked the guy who brought him in.

There was talk about including him in a deal for Antony. Was that untrue?

Give it 6 weeks until Watford change manager as usual. Laird then sits in the stands until January.

Maybe their November manager will fancy him, though

 

[CallyRed]

States that Laird needs to play.
Club sends the guy to the most unstable team in the league.

[Raw]

Of course we have to pay part of the salary. Of course.

 

[AndySmith1990]

Constantly paying for Woodwards incompetence

 

[MDFC Manager]

Where's Mourinho when we need him?

 

[Red_toad]

Naturally…

Should really review how much we pay fringe players who are not bought for their potential, as he’s got the deal of a lifetime from United that no one else will match.

 

[BeforeKeanetherewasRobson]

Just lower the fee. We need to make proper cuts when players leave, even if upfront fee lower

He earns slightly less than Newcastles highest paid player, just to give it some context. Thankfully we loan him out next 2 season and he’s then free to leave. Went from 1.3 million at Porto to over 4 million at United, way too much in my opinion.

Money for old rope we've been, for years.

£5m-£10m, no wages paid, bye.

 

[Telsim]

Buy or jog on.

 

[Leftback99]

Telles leaving will be a loan at best. Why would anyone buy him? And why would he want to leave when no one will pay him anywhere near as much.

[Loony BoB]

Telles would be a very solid player for a lot of teams, not everyone is as blessed as we are in the LB department. We even have fan usernames like Leftback99!

To be fair to Woodward and your current board, this is more a byproduct of the huge financial gap between the Premier League and other leagues rather than incompetence. Telles makes below average money in the Utd squad at £100k/week. There has been a lot of rumours in France about him going to Nice but Telles is making twice as much as Nice highest paid player. If a PL club want to loan a first team player to another league, they'll have to cover a big part of the wages most of the time, because foreign clubs simply cant afford them.

Another one of ole's great signings, where would be without his brilliant transfer business..

At the time it made sense.
