Re: Manchester United

Ego's amd ex players hurt Utd .

Rashford is very overrated player as Fernandes, there is not a glimmer of talent in tehri midfield whcih should create for others two of the back four could well be winning the Euro for England , Maguire and Shaw are poor because others around then are dire .

They should fire sell the lot , and start again as they did after Munich and relegation .

Re: Manchester United

Madrid played a blinder last year in selling a 30 year old Casemiro to Man Utd for £70m, in order to (partially) fund the purchase of Bellingham.

Re: Manchester United

I’ve just read a Alex Ferguson autobiography, it was an old one from a charity shop but it was just as he was retiring I think and what was very clear was as soon as a player got to big for his boots, didn’t matter who they were Keane, Beckham, Van Nistelrooy that they were gone. There was a reason Pogba was let go in the same way.

Since he left, they seem to have bought poorly, but also the wrong type of people, also even youth players seem to think they are above it all. They need a huge rebuild and a top manager, although not sure who could turn that mess around.

I thought that Ferguson left a team already in decline.

Yeah agreed, I’m not sure if he had left or not at the time of the book but he named the players to take them forward and none of them were up to it. But the book (his book) also highlighted how he could rebuild and was ruthless with those not up to it. I think they won the league when he retired so Moyes had plenty to build on.
