I think Romero was one of our best post-SAF signings

Actually I think the RB means something else regarding Leipzig but they still have something to do with red bull
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Its still red bull but they aren't allowed the branding in german football i think
He's got a slightly different role there than spurs though
His time at Spurs he described as turning into a nightmare because of trying to work with levy... Whereas at red bull I don't think he has anyone interfering
He'd love Ed

Ideally we hire the right manager and give him as much money as he needs
So far we’ve not had that combination
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Jose spent how much again?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He wasn’t the right manager though
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Finally
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He was our best manager since SAF though and we’ve taken a step backwards with Ole
But I agree with hindsight that he wasn’t the right guy just as I’m sure people who argued day and night can accept that LVg was also not the right guy
----------------------------------------------------------------------
LvG was the right guy at the wrong time. We needed the LvG that was at Ajax. What we got was too conservative and he made too many mistakes.

Yeah, Ed is the fly in the ointment of my dream appointment 😂
#poetdidntknowit
To be honest, we need a midfielder who can create and score goals whoever takes over. I wouldn't be against signing fernandes.
80% of that list is wasted money.
You are were you are because you've bought sheite players for exorbitant fees. It doesn't take a genius to work that out. 👍
Probably the biggest single reason for the figures in this list was when Ed publicly stated we were minted.
Worst salesman ever
To be fair, the top 18 players in that list were not that bad considering the circumstances:
-Aging squad needed big overhaul, even if some players might not be world beaters
-Lack of known quality on the market. Ppl are quick to forget Di Maria only came on the market because Real needed to recoup some cash. No one else was selling their core players (even Napoli could hold onto their magic tridente for the longest time)
-Lets face it, Utd was p1ss poor in getting the right youngsters at the end of the Fergie era compared to other clubs. Chelsea had fantastic scouts and hoarded boatloads of potential world class players in their youth squads. Ironically it was Mou who wasted it all...
Actually struggling to think of 1 genuine success story from that list....,
It is kinda ironic how with all those players a guy in Rashford was probably our best player post SAF
Actually struggling to think of 1 genuine success story from that list....,

its a sorry list but guys like blind, Herrera, zlatan/romero,(free) and most recently awb and james could be the only ones who can be called anywhere near a success

Well, post saf player I was going for.
We’ve wasted so much talent as well. We’ve made a lot of bad signings, but our failure to get the best from some of the obvious talent we’ve brought in has been criminal.
Which has the added negative of higher player turnover which, in turn, has cost us being able to invest heavily in certain areas that would have given us a bigger impact on the pitch.

Get back in your turtleneck
The list looks better in black and white than it actually is.
Sanchez, Ibrahimovich, Falcao and Schweinsteiger all world class players, but not by the time they arrived at United.
Di Maria a modern day Nani. Great in flashes but you don’t want him being your main man.
Lukaku without wingers was never a smart signing.
Mkitharyan is the one I was most disappointed about. I thought that with him and Pogba we were going to see something special, but if the post-Scholes and Carrick era has taught is anything it’s that a team is only as good as it’s midfield anchor, and we’ve had absolute trash in that position for 7 years.

Probably because we gave them Mkhitaryan for the same price they gave us Sanchez as part of the same deal.

I think everybody would have loved an Ajax era LVG, he was one of the best managers in the modern game but the one we got was well past his best, as was Jose.
Shocking how bad LVG was in the market
