He plays fifa in real life. Same 11 & subs every game. Squad this year isn’t like last year when there was a huge gap of quality between the first XI & fringe players. His treatment of VDB, Bailly, Telles, Dalot is a joke. His favoritism towards some players is annoying #OleOut
@utdreport@ChrisWheelerDM What a load of BS. We bid 80m for Fernandez. 150m was the budget only for the Midfielders. With Rashford returning we aren’t going to buy a LW. The money can’t vanish all of the sudden. This doesn’t make sense
I know it’s the first pre-season game with most of the first team missing and he should get a free pass like others but Zirkzee ain’t got the tools bro. Now that we might not buy a Marquee midfielder and are saving money, we should be replacing Zirkzee even if we have to loan him
Tuchel: "We wanted to go for the second goal but we couldn't get out. We became more and more passive. We couldn't keep the ball. I don't think it was a structural problem."
What is the Insane PR of Baleba all about? Am I missing something because last I checked he had an atrocious season and Brighton will ask for 70m. These people making noise are the ones who were cribbing about Tielemans and Santos signings. It’s very silly #MUFC
@UTDMarcel Players who act difficult with their club get what they deserve. Its karma! Garnacho had everything sorted at Man Utd but acted out after being benched in the UEL final despite poor form. This humiliation is earned.
Manu Koné looks like the obvious choice for Man Utd, but nothing has been obvious with them this summer. I wouldn’t sleep on Angelo Stiller. He was Vivell’s pick. #MUFC
Manchester United are finally learning from their mount mistake. You have to feel for Ederson but it’s the right call. I think Kone would be the obvious choice but I would keep an eye on Stiller as well. Also hoping we close the Scott deal or it’s Baleba #MUFC
@SushantNMehta He is actually good in tests. He has been good when bowling and bats like a dream especially on foreign soil. Just watch his innings in Aus and Eng. But yes he doesn’t deserve a T20 spot for sure
@Mike87_United Mainoo is Spurs level and Fernandez and Tonali are Man Utd level? 😂 I understand that the Transfers have been somewhat underwhelming but insulting Mainoo like this is crazy.
@UtdFaithfuls At best Alex Scot, at worst Baleba. There is Wharton but I don’t think Man Utd have even considered him. Stiller could be interesting. All underwhelming at this point.
Hope you’re right mate, because otherwise Man Utd are treading on very dangerous waters. Tchouaméni, Anderson & Tonali are all gone. There’s no marquee signing left. At best we get Scott, which hardly screams marquee. I’m trying to stay positive, but the situation is bloody scary
Manchester United’s reported agreement with Chelsea for André Santos an initial £48 million, plus £2 million in add ons and a possible 10% sell on clause feels like another clear statement of intent from the INEOS era.
More than the player himself, the deal reflects a club that is no longer being driven by public pressure or emotion. In the past, under previous leadership, fan sentiment often seemed to influence transfer decisions, contributing to inflated fees and poor value in the market.
INEOS have repeatedly stressed that they will not overpay, and this move appears to reinforce that stance. By sticking to a data led recruitment strategy, they have identified a midfielder they believe in at a fee that looks sensible in today’s inflated market.
The bigger picture is just as important. If these smart, fairly priced signings succeed, it sends a message across Europe: Manchester United can compete and win without paying whatever selling clubs demand. That removes the desperation factor and strengthens the club’s position in future negotiations.
For me, that cultural shift is just as exciting as the signing itself. It’s an encouraging sign for the future, and I can’t wait to see what Santos brings to Old Trafford this season.
