By JesalR Go To PostI think what these big clubs need to realise is that you can’t replicate Brightons structure at a place like United. The context is too different.
It works at Brighton because you can have time to embed and assess these players over long periods, and the manager doesn’t lose their job on a really poor run of form. United need and want success
100%. At least Ashworth’s got experience outside of that with Newcastle and England, which suggests it’s not quite such a crapshoot as hiring Steve Walsh like Sohois says.

By Pedja Go To PostI still remember some football analyst calling Scholes overrated.
By Scum Go To PostWelcome to the PL, Glasner.How could the Glasners do this
By Dazenheimer Go To PostGotta start somewhere.
The point is to recruit smartly and not put such big risks on obvious targets.
Minamino Vs Antony, tell me what's the bigger risk?
I don't think you'll really be buying players in the discovery phase so to speak, I think it'll just be "ready made" targets that are better understood. You won't end up buying a sancho for the right to discover he prefers playing on the left etc

He is, people act like he could play for prime barca

In the age of ffp, you need to give yourself as many rolls of the dice as possible.
By Diego! Go To PostRoy, pls. Retire.
Every single backroom staff member that gets linked with a big club is now described as 'highly-rated', even if no one has ever heard of them before.
Apparently Wilcox's 'highly-rated' reputation comes from being the director of the Cheats' youth setup. Amazing what he achieved by spending 10x the budget of all the other youth teams and buying all the best teenagers in the country.

By Scum Go To PostAll I can think of is that he won't be doing any Douglas Luiz celebrations over the next 3 months.
People begging Woy to retire, but he was retired already. Palace came looking for him like it was the expendables 3
By Laboured Go To PostCan't believe they tried to kill him rather than just sack him. Cheapskates.How do you do it m8? You literally just posted it and the link is already down.

Think it was up less than a minute.
It's going to be fun seeing lots of reports trying to claim he's going anywhere other than Real Madrid.

Chelsea's figures go up to June 2022, meaning the £850m they spent from the summer of that year to August 2023 is not counted.
