I have to say I think this fella might be braindead.
I am ready to bet that Levy asked him to do that to receive a fair price for him and the idiot believed him again. :lol:


That made me chuckle. To be fair don't mind being braindead for 250k a week

MU have introduced a salary cap of £200K aka 'The Ronaldo Rule'.
Any big name signings will be joining for the lure of the jersey and the history as they could earn far more elsewhere.

Kane can proudly retire with his haul of fans player of the year trophies and his engraved long service gold plated watch from Levy.

Merseyside Police arrested three men for alleged homophobic chanting during Liverpool's draw with Chelsea.

One was arrested inside Anfield and two outside the ground for three separate incidents on Saturday.

The men, aged 23, 37 and 49, were arrested on suspicion of homophobic intentional harassment, alarm or distress.

The 37-year-old has been bailed pending further enquiries, and the other two men will attend a voluntary interview.


I hate Liverpool, but this is getting silly. “Chelsea rent boys”.

I think there is no way on letting Walker go. We are trying to keep Gundo.
The other three I would see them go rather then staying, to be honest.

It makes sense that there will be a lot of movement this Summer.
Pep's public statements on lack of desire, the age profile of some players, lack of game time, playing in and for a Pep team, past success blunts desire, length of time with the club, etc...
I think the refresh started this Summer with established players leaving. For ex, Jesus and Zinch wanted a change, Sterling had lost his desire, etc...
Look at the starting 11 Vs. Wolves. Has to be a lot of unhappy bunnies on the bench. Experienced bunnies who have won lots and now cannot find the drive to keep going. Understandable imo.

The other three I would see them go rather then staying, to be honest.

Be surprised to see Walker and Laporte want to leave or be allowed to

Silva can go for me. Not focused to the level we require this season and this is the chance to get good money for him
Cancelo as well. Not a dependable defender and his attacking prowess has taken a massive hit recently. He has the potential to be a bigger liability than a game changer. Sell him whilst his stock is still good
Gundogan has been a great player for us. But age is not his or our friend. Can understand why he would want to go to Barca this summer as it’s a decent chance for a good contract. He could get offered 3 years there whereas we would likely only offer one year and the opportunity might not be there the following season

Of course there will be lots of factors which go to dictating player turnaround, not least the recruitment side. Before letting players go we need to ensure they are adequately replaced otherwise we have a depleted squad. The emergence of Lewis limits the opportunities offered to Cancelo for example. Can’t see how he plays RB for us any more.

Maybe there’s another Academy lad who will break through? Borges? Maybe a couple of the lads currently out on loan? Time will tell.

But I reckon this will be a summer window with a bit more activity than in recent years. I believe we need to reinvigorate and freshen up the current squad. The performances lately which culminated in the interview Pep gave, are testament to that.

And maybe there might be a surprise exit, someone who we wouldn’t have considered

I think Laporte will be looking to find a new place to play regular football, I think Madrid who need center backs. I think Farsa are out of the question.
He was linked the past years with a transfer, so who knows.
Cancelo looks like he felt of a wagon this season.

I would keep Bernie only if he drops his bird and moves in with Stones.

Farca probably think they can continue to have our pants down with transfers. Who can blame them with our recent experiences?
They won't pay the going rate for Laporte Bernie or Cancelo so they can fuck off as far as im concerned
Would consider a swap for de Jong and Cancelo or Laporte if they fancy it

La Liga have just refused to register Gavi's new contract because it breaks Barca's salary cap.
Gonna be hard to pay for players and their salaries then!

A swap of Cancelo and Silva for Frenkie deJong wouldn't be the worst bit of business given their respective form

I know Dias is close to returning, but for me he has dropped off in the intensity he showed when he arrived, is he like his compatriots looking at pastures new. I thought he would lead like Vinny, he just has a passive look to me tbf he was no different at the World Cup.

Agree re Dias, thought he was largely inconsistent before his injury and did not have a good WC Be interesting to see how he returns. We lack a leader(s) and this is a major part in our failure to win the biggest games. Dias looked the part on his arrival I'm hoping he rediscovers that form

Can’t have been easy for Dias being played with a different CB partner every week.
