15M + Riola fee is a bargain no matter what happens in 4 years
Why on earth would you not be looking at the hottest striking prospect in European football that can be had for 15m when everyone knows you want a striker - crazy to think you wasn't.
Not signing him for 25m (with fee) then going after someone like Cavani and paying him 250k a week in the final years of his career is exactly whats fked you up these last few years.
We had to pay 75m for VVD - 25m of that was something we really didnt want to have to pay but had to as we fked up... I very much doubt we look at that 25m now and worry about it.
In 4 years if Haaland carries on as he is he will be worth 150m + so even if he did go you would not have done to bad out of him.
I just think missing out him is a big loss for you guys he was exactly what you needed and would have probably got you top 4 coming in Jan with how Chelsea are faltering.
That’s a really great argument to a point I did actually agree with.Why on earth would you not be looking at the hottest striking prospect in European football that can be had for 15m when everyone knows you want a striker - crazy to think you wasn't.

The timescale is just very odd if he had no interest in joining United ,Raiola isn’t exactly shy of expressing himself is he ?

The way you behaved towards the referee because De Gea dropped the ball, was not on.
Grow up, it's not under 17's football, it's up to the ref./VAR to decide.https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51189309
The more you profess that I'm hornetrider the more stupid you look, so by all means carry on.
And you two siding with DeltonaS is hilariously two faced. He's always having a pop at Utd. Hypocrites.
Nothing to say about the actual incident you're being charged with? I'll leave you to it then.
Good luck scrapping over 6th and qualifying for Europe.
Can you tell me when I’ve accused you of anything along the lines of having multiple logins?
What I can say with a degree of possibly misplaced confidence given this is PistonHeads is that given your short term membership you have an awful lot of historical knowledge of these forums.
So what is it then? Long time lurker? Too shy to join? Just a new glory hunting Liverpool fan who has spent the last few months pouring over every football post? Chip on the shoulder that you can’t help but let embarrass you? Or have you been here before and can’t help but behave like a child?
All of the above?
Child.

Harland shafted Ole. He’d committed but changed his mind and it’s now another harsh lesson for
Ole about dealings at the top table. And dealing with Leeds scum.
GTO-3R said:
If we end up signing him for 30 million but not Fernandes for 55 million (Euros) then Ole can fk right off along with his policy to only buy British players. It's obvious what we need.
Failure to strengthen with experience in this window is writing the season off. We still have a chance in Europe and possibly the fa cup but the crowd is going to turn properly on the Glazers and Woodward. A toxic old Trafford isn’t going to help at all and fans will not bother with cup games. An experienced midfielder and a striker on loan surely isn’t beyond united in January? We are screaming out for them. It too much for Greenwood and James to shoulder.The Birmingham kid is a star by all accounts happy we are in for him, how may times do we get criticised for ignoring this kind of talent then paying double in 3 or 4 years? Damned if we do, damned if we don’t.

Listening to Ole just now it sounds like it’s going to be youth in for Rashford.
Off to check youth team stats.....in desperation.
I wonder if the glazers will discount my season ticket? Will they fk.
Idiotic approach.Off to check youth team stats.....in desperation.
I wonder if the glazers will discount my season ticket? Will they fk.
I really think the club is happy to finish outside the top 4 if it saves a few million. Insanely short-sighted approach.

Don’t expect anything ,the objective is a 2-3 year project .
The frustration is how poor the league is means we actually should and could finish top 4 ,but with a thinner squad and probably our 3 best players out with long term injuries it makes things more difficult .
I think you are right, this is a poor league apart from Liverpool, so top 4 would be achievable. Surely the experience of European football would help the players develop and assist in attracting better players to the side. There would be riots in Madrid if the manager said they were working to challenge in 2 or 3 years for the big competitions.The frustration is how poor the league is means we actually should and could finish top 4 ,but with a thinner squad and probably our 3 best players out with long term injuries it makes things more difficult .
