Reading comprehension is your friend. It wouldn't change the fact that strengthening the defense would improve the team the most at the moment vs attackers, considering our defense was the problem in the big games, not the offense. That much is clear, not sure how the fuck you're going to argue...

No one is saying to spend 60-70mil on a CB though. We could of got one on a free, also, but chose not to. Any solid option would do, but you want to keep a great, but chronically injured CB, a braindead CB, a 17 year old and a guy who just turned 34 as our main CB options. Kounde doesn't count...

Then it would change nothing, really. We already came close to winning with a far less than ideal defense. That doesn't change the reality that improving the defense would make the team overall a lot better than improving elsewhere. Perhaps only goalkeeper is comparable. A winger to rest Raph...

Yup. They aren't blaming the defense though, they are somehow blaming the coach for everything 😂

Its kind of wild that the main issue with us not making it through the CL was our defense, and they apparently dont want to reinforce or change it at all. Araujo with huge mistakes every year, back up FB options are a joke. Watching Martin fuck up every pass, look terrified every time got the...

I never said not to sign anyone. And to say Ferran is a changed man after several months of decent form following 2.5 seasons of being laughably bad is a bit of copium. Also, Raphinha and Ferran are high commitment, high workrate players which is exactly what I said Flick thrives with. You...

We can hope so, but from what Deco has said I dont see it happening. As much as we'd like to bring in a striker to replace Lewa, there hasn't been anything mentioned regarding a striker at all. I think they know Lewa doesn't want to leave and we are stuck with him. We can't manage a new strikers...

Yea, winning 3 titles with Bumsi was awful. I wish Xavi was still around so I could watch our wingers with their fingers up their buttholes isolated on the touchlines and our midfield getting run over every game. The golden days, surely.

We really must be broke if we're getting Rashford (hopefully a loan) while not buying a winger, striker, midfielder or fullback. Joan Garcia and Rashford on loan likely our only signings. Striker next year then, hopefully.

As I said earlier, he is not a child anymore. He's not 18 like when he started playing for United. He's almost 28 now. He's been there 10 years. A decade. A small fraction of that time, he was a different player, taking on opponents and trying hard. The MAJORITY of his time there, 10 years...

We probably do, just not very much.

That's basing an important decision off emotion and a big "what if". There are plenty of players who are dumb and throw away big opportunities. We can get someone cheaper, younger, hungrier and better. A favorable loan with them paying most of the wages, yea sure, maybe...but I rather not take...

I guess that's what people do in your world. They suck ass at their job and are lazy, then when they apply to a new one they say oh dont listen to all my bad references...I was just really sad there, not lazy 🥹 He's 28 in October, he's not a kid anymore. I'm not convinced he's a changed man...

Players who have the desire to win and improve dont just acquire it out of thin air. It's a part of them. Their workrate is part of who they are. Lazy, disinterested players like Rashford and Leao dont suddenly change who they are because Flick gives them a pep talk. Flick can augment...

He was impressive in the few videos I've watched, but was unable to find extended clips of games. His qualities are quite clear though- decent dribbler, lots of pace and very direct. I'm sure someone will snap Igor Paixao up. Another player I'd prefer to poor mentality Leao/Rashford and 29 year...

Let's make it 8 and have Ferran as our starting 9 since he's now a proven striker 🫠

On another note, we are now being linked with Igor Paixao from Feyenoord. A more direct winger for those who are saying that's what they primarily want.

He'll be ready and too expensive for us to sign then. Sounds about right.

He is not slow. How did you come to that conclusion? Dribbling is one of his best qualities and you listed the player has to be able to dribble...his dribbling ability is why he appears so fast with the ball in the first place. Iniesta wasnt super fast, but he moved super fast with the ball...

Explain to me how he doesn't fit the profile of LW for us, then explain to me how Raphina fits that role.
