Marcus Rashford

[zanela]

What do you have against beautiful Brazilian women? Jk

She took her moderation duties in earnest. While she had some disagreements with the more vocal members, and may have come across authoritative sometimes, she was cordial for the most part and an asset overall.

Don't want to jinx it or anything, but people will find out just how big of a difference a club put in order makes. Not just with Rashfords of the world but everybody. Having club in havoc and transferring all the pressure to individuals because after all they are paid so much and bla bla is the first sign of a decaying football project. Footballers are just regular people in most aspects, if it's hard to meet people in real life that don't get phased out by pressure, it's similar in football.

Pressure is as high in any condition, it's just that more players will face it better if the club is supporting them instead of making it harder.

Welcome to the club, R9

Role of a well managed club is to set the platform and provide the conditions. If a player still fails, it's on him almost surely. Like it exposed Fati last season. Easy. Set the conditions and who doesn't deliver gets moved.

The only two clubs that did this part in EPL were City and Liverpool in many years. Maybe Chelsea soon to follow.

He should be better for us than Joao (cause he's a sharper profile), but that's pretty much the only expectation I have. I don't hate this transfer and prefer it to unproven youngsters, but hard to get excited.

Is it done? I wasn't really active lately.

 

[serghei]

He will be a success most likely, because the bar is low due to Fati being useless. The only question is if he's gonna provide a big enough impact to buy him in a full transfer. People should not forget we have probably 2 of the best 10 players in the world on the wings.

Reading some comments you'd think we traded Raphinha for Rashford.

 

[MonteCuler]

I am really excited

How it works out mostly depends on him. He has the talent to be absolute killer upfront in this Barca side with all the creators around him

His career has been downhill for some time now. It's world cup year, I think he's extremely motivated which is why he wanted to join so much

I think first few performances we will be impressed but only concern is what happens after that. Does he continue to help us win it all or he stops and gets overwhelmed by the praise. I hope he can be consistent

Fabrizio says it's 14 mil so he will be a lot better paid than many of our best players. Some foreign lazy unprofessional bum who never did anything for the club will be getting more than our players who brought us the title last season, seems fair.

It's gonna be interesting registering him, hope they solve Garcia's registration first.

I'm thinking the negotiation basically went, if you want us to pay half his salary, we need to include a mandatory buy clause.

Barca said we'll pay all his salary and give you a buy option.

That's what the landed on, then we asked rashford to shave a little off the top.

I'll take that deal

Deco disasterclass. Thought he was going to earn less.

 

[TheStig]

In the end the bonuses are easy to reach and will probably also be paid and he'll get his full salary just as he did at United. He didn't sacrifice shit, we were just the only idiots willing to pay him that much. Even a retarded club like United came to their senses and tries to get rid of him and his salary and they finally found even bigger idiots that are willing to take it. Villa didn't pay his full salary right?

This is how a Deco masterclass looks like, where are the good old days when he only did damage to the club with interviews?

 

[Messi983]

Blame Bumsi, not Deco, he's the one who wanted Trashy now. If it would be up to Deco he would go to hollidays until August 31 and then get him on loan with MU covering his full wages.

Really? Who do we have on 7m net? Certainly not Lewa, Lamine, or Raph.

Probably comparable wage with Raphinha, probably a bit lower. But Raphinha also cost us 10-15m extra per season in amortisation for his 60m transfer fee to Leeds.

This bum gets to vacation 1 year in sunny Barcelona on a full salary.
