“Ambition” this what most United fans want the board to do. Overpay 😂😂😂. Newcastle are probably laughing at whoever decided to spend £100 million on Tonali. #mufc
🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Tottenham Hotspur reach agreement with Newcastle United to sign Sandro Tonali. Deal for 26yo Italy international to join #THFC from #NUFC £92.5m + £7.5m in potential add-ons based around multiple Champions League qualifications @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/dWEZtjFzFK
@SuhailChowdhary This is not factually accurate, we don't need to lie out of frustration.
Mateus Fernandes getting 250k.
Mason Mount earning 200k.
The previous regime at the club were wrong to give Mount that & the current regime were right not to give Fernandes that. Both are silly money.
The same club owners who signed Mbeumo, Lammens, Sesko, Heaven and Cunha don’t know what they are doing because they refuse to dropped £85m and £250000 per week for Mateus Fernandes???
Villa and Newcastle hit with fines related to financial breaches, yet still NOTHING on the 115 Man City charges whilst they're casually dropping £116M on one player 👍
We’ve seen this before. The same accounts praised INEOS for passing on Delap, now they’re calling them incompetent. $ 100m+ for a player whose last two clubs were relegated is a huge gamble. Sad to see criticism posted purely for social media clicks.
“We need players that want to come to United”
that’s what Bruno would say over and over again, u don’t give us priority then go to the club u want.
People fail to see that’s not about money, we paid 70 for mbeumo because he clearly said he wanted us , we paid 70+ for Sesko because he wanted us and we could have paid 85 for Fernandes if he wanted us.
#MUFC
Please let’s be clear.
I do not want Rashford back at United but you cannot say he isn’t better than all those LW options going for £100m and over.

I'm seeing the crash out from Manchester United fans on the timeline, and I can't lie, it's quite funny.
We didn't lose the transfer race to Tottenham because the player preferred them. We stepped away because they were willing to pay significantly more, both to the player and to his club.
If Mateus Fernandes chooses Tottenham because of the financial package, that's his decision. If Manchester United wasn't his priority, then so be it. No player is bigger than the club.
Congratulations to Tottenham. They've signed a very talented player with huge potential. But I wouldn't be celebrating if Manchester United had bent over backwards to meet West Ham's demands.
€100 million (around £86 million) is a massive fee. We didn't pay that for Benjamin Šeško, Matheus Cunha, or Bryan Mbeumo, so why should we spend it on a 21-year-old who has been relegated from the Premier League in consecutive seasons?
That's how clubs end up with players on inflated wages who become difficult to move on if things don't work out. Then the media spends years farming engagement with endless comparisons.
There are still quality players available. Aurélien Tchouaméni, Alex Scott, and others remain realistic targets.
People should remember the Alexis Sánchez situation. We beat Manchester City by offering bigger wages after they refused to match our offer. We all know how that turned out.
Tottenham have signed a good player. Fair play to them.
But let's stop pretending Manchester United were "rejected." We simply chose not to overpay.
Peace.
Spurs didn’t “win the race” to sign Fernandes.
Thats what the media wants you to think because it gets clicks & attracts waaaaay more attention than the truth… which is that Man United DON’T want players who aren’t 100% committed to the cause so they opted out
If you think Fernandes chose Spurs because of the project and De Zerbi you are so wrong. Mendes chose Spurs for the money, he doesn’t a shit about his client lol. #mufc
Because most fans just want to paint a picture that INEOS and United don’t spend the money. Where there’s negativity, United fans will feed of it. #mufc
Manchester United paid £75m for Jadon Sancho, €100m for Antony, £80m for Harry Maguire, £87m for Paul Pogba, £79m for Rasmus Højlund, £75m for Romelu Lukaku, £59m for Ángel Di María and £55m for Mason Mount.
Be honest… how many actually lived up to those fees?
So if the club refuses to overpay now, why exactly should I be angry?
Anderson chose a Pepless City, for money.
Mateus Fernandes chose Spurs over his preferred Manchester United and the chance to play alongside his idol, for money.
Sandro Tonali’s heart is in Italy but he refuses to go back home because of money.
You’d think these players were rejecting minimum wage, not 150k+ a week.
Bruno Fernandes I appreciate you *even more* after seeing you reject GENERATIONAL wealth to follow your heart and stay loyal.
This is how you separate the men from the boys.
Fernandes refusing to give United priority despite spurs being nowhere near the ucl and barely staying up also tells you Everything you need to know about how mendes brainwashes his players .. now you still have Tchouameni Bouaddi Wharton Tonali Scott Baleba and many hidden targets that we don’t even know off available for the right price … Add Stiller to that list
