Correct I don't care. He may well be leaving.
If we get another top midfielder and if hes made captain that could also work out fine.
I'm more concerned with replacing Herrera and an ageing Matic, plus a quality defender and hopefully a top quality attacker.
Pogba is pogba no point stressing about someone who may well leave.

We all knew it would be a struggle when Jose wasn't backed to buy big like he wanted.

Anyway enough post mortem talk it's time to look forward instead
Was he not given £500 million on players, but a lot of them were not being played etc (ref. comments on here about how many are still around from Fergie's time etc). From the rumours it seems like he was given the money, but did not have the flexibility to choose players, more being allowed to buy people who would sell shirts? Of course we have no idea on the real truth, but I think it was less about money and more about not having complete freedom to choose players. Maybe like Rodgers for us and the transfer committee playing moneyball if those rumours are correct. Balotelli and Carroll FFS!

No idea but Jose did go public about not being able to buy who he wanted and needed so who knows.

Borrusia Dortmund are an incredibly efficient run club. Sell Pulisic for 64 million and buy Thorgan Hazard and Nico Schulz for a combined 77 million.

Meanwhile we’re fking about once again rolleyes

You do recall us buying the odd fabulous players now and then surely? Just the odd one or two..
Just because we've been rubbish under moyes and lvg in buying doesn't mean the current lot can't spot/pick good players. Keep the faith!

Absolutely I do and I hope that Ole does the same and builds a squad who want to play for us not just luxury players. My point was that Dortmund are so good at getting young talent in and running very efficiently as a football club. Admirable.

Yes,very well run club.The only negative is a lot of their fan stuff is too co-ordinated ,not spontaneous and therefore lacks a bit of soul.

Almost Germanic "Automatons" as Captain Manwering once referred to them!

No deals over the line for utd as yet, too many people partying and on hols methinks.

They were excellent last season at Wembley & a friendly bunch while queuing up for the Underground , I get what you say about the co-ordination with about a dozen or so leading their chants with their backs to the pitch . Bloody noisy so n so’s though .

Pretty much the same for all none Premier league European clubs
I'd say the best I've seen at Anfield without it was Leeds fan, they were great.
The loudest tend to be ran by a guy or 2 with a mic

First visit on a match day on Sunday, parking in N3, what time should we arrive to avoid the main carnage?, I'm expecting a pretty long delay getting out.

Add 45 minutes to an hour if you wait for the final whistle.

What kind of carnage at Old Trafford though? The being well beaten by a relegated side kinda carnage or the traffic carnage?

The well beaten by a side of aged Germans carnage. No wait, traffic :-)

Pens if a draw apparently.
