Really concerned at the current situation.

We have brought in Amorim and said goodbye to three forwards - Sancho, Rashford and Antony. And we are incredibly paying for them to play for other teams. Normally a club would get a loan fee on top of wages being covered. You'd expect that. Except United.

And so far, while others are making signings, we have not replaced a single one of them even on loan despite our dire situation.

We clearly have no plan, still, despite Ineos taking over football operations.

We clearly have a plan for the summer.

Why sign a striker if we can't even create chances?
 
Three problem players on huge salaries that needed moving on. It’s part of a long term rebuild, better have some patience or you’re going to have a miserable time.

Yes, normally. United are not normal. We were bought by a crony family with money they didn't have, and they proceeded to mismanage the club for 2 decades, one of the striking features of which was to hand crazy contracts to average (or above average at best) players like Rashford and Sancho.

Undoing that will not take any normal shape. Undoing that takes much suffering, which we are seeing right now. Whether the damage will be actually undone remains to be seen. We might well be witnessing the slow - or not so slow - destruction of a behemoth (like the USA).
