Pretty sure the majority of United fans are delighted with the signing of Sancho and Varane. We luckily have a lot of money and should spend it wisely, in recent years we haven’t which is why many fans will be sceptical. Nothing wrong with constructive criticism if people feel it’s justified.

All i've seen is people saying he's in decline, people saying we've spent too much under Ole and people saying we need another 2 players.
The times are good so let's all enjoy them.

Questions over his decline are valid, I dont really watch Real much but I did notice the odd occasions I did recently that he didn’t seem up to the stands I usually expect. But saying that I’m really excited that he’s joining and think he could be great for us.
Also we do need other players, that’s just how it is. Our midfield still isn’t quite right and lacks balance unless we play McFred which then sacrifices creativity.
I’m sure Liverpool were delighted when they got VVD and Allison however the additional purchase of Fabino also made a huge difference.

His performances may have dipped lately due to fatigue with the Covid fixture pileup and then the Euros on top. He's a world class CB.

Varane has declined from what he was 3-4 years ago. You won't find a single person who has watched him even half regularly say otherwise. That said, he is better than anything else you have, so you should be happy

He was just bored in La Liga after winning the World Cup. The thought of gunning for fourth in the PL will reanimate him.

We are in a really healthy position at the moment as a club and people need to be more positive instead of sticking their knives in everywhere they can find. I'm on about our supporters too!
He isn't performing at the same levels as he was a few years ago, but then again neither are Real Madrid. It's a very good signing though, most clubs in the world would have taken him at £42m of what have you.
I still think United are a few players away. The team is certainly better and the feeling at United has improved massively under Ole, but with the nature of Man United, if he doesn't back that up with some concrete silverware he will come under pressure sooner rather than later.

You could argue that a lot of your players aren't performing at the same levels as a few years ago though. You wouldn't say they're all suddenly in decline though would you?

Is that not the very definition of decline? Performance levels dropping from what they were previously?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
To me Varane is in the peak of his career and he just stagnated at Madrid. A combination of stagnation, Covid pileup and then the Euros are why he may have had a few lapses.

It depends on your sample. Are Liverpool's players in decline? Well factually yes, dropping down the table would suggest the team and players are declining. Putting context into the nature of the season though, I'd say it's an anomaly more than anything else.
Varane is a bit of a different story because I've seen a continuous downward trend in the last couple of seasons. There probably are various factors for this, but it still means that he has declined over the last couple of seasons. It doesn't take away the fact he's a good signing though.

Why did you filter Robb

He was disrupting article flow. Why how do you know??

Filtering someone is an abuse of their Human Rights.
I'm insanely jealous of this. You guys just did the best business of the window by far.

I will consider potentially removing him from the filter list, but not immediately. To be fair I do like Robb so putting him in the sin bin is a bit harsh as he always contributes to a debate but he went too far.
