The glorious demise of Manchester United

Have a look at this mess:


In fairness Casimiero looked a hell of a player last year, though he's nothing now. And the rest of that list? 16 players with an average speed of 40m per player, most of whom dont look any better than the ones they replaced, with how many other million pounds worth frozen out.

Keep up the good work...
Yeah but even Casimero is a terrible deal because of the price and size of the contract. Guy is 30 & they paid £60m & gave him a 5 year deal on 400k a week.

When Man United rock up teams must feel like they have won the lottery. Chelsea aren't far behind.

Oh absolutely on Casimiero, it's just that unlike the rest of that list he did positively contribute at one point. There aren't many on there you can say that about.

It used to be a common joke among agents and clubs, that when Man United (and Chelsea under Abrahmovic and now under Boehly) became interested, the price instantly had a 0 added to it.
Hojlund will be an excellent striker, but, consider, for the price they paid for him, City got Haaland, and Julian Alvarez.
If anything, their football operations department hasn't really moved forward since the nepotism of Fergies days, and, it shows, as the 'hit rate' on signings has been appalling for them.

I’ve seen a fair bit of young Timo (another Stuttgart old boy) and there’s definitely a player there if you play to his strengths (i.e. don’t try and play him as an out-and-out centre forward, as Chelsea tried to).

Who’d join United anyway, they’re an absolute basket case.

Werner is exactly like Nunez, great energy & causes problems but has an amazing knack of looking like a centre back when he has to shoot.

Yeah, his workrate and movement off the ball were exactly what you would want in a forward, then it would all fall apart when he got a sight of goal.

Werner could work at Tottenham though. They will have attacking players all round him who can score goals.... Son, Brennan, Kulusevski, Maddison and even that nob Richarlison. He could fulfill the same role Firminho did so well for Liverpool.
