🚨🚨🗣️ Michael Carrick with a message to the Manchester United fans:
“Come to Old Trafford on Saturday with EVERYTHING you’ve got. Full of enthusiasm, energy, and support us through the good and struggling times.
“Have that energy and enthusiasm to see something special in the next moment… to feel that passion. Love coming to watch us, love that emotion.
“Saturday is so important and I want everyone to come with an expectation that something SPECIAL could happen.”

Man Utd could technically spend £400m+ this summer if they got £95m for Garnacho + Rashford.
Let me explain:
Garnacho (£55m) & Rashford (£40m) are academy products, so their sales = pure profit under PSR. That’s £95m pure profit instantly boosting the books.
Why does that matter?
When you buy a player, the cost is amortised over their contract. E.g. Buy someone for £60m on a 5-year deal = only £12m per year on the books.
So if United makes £95m in pure profit, they could (theoretically) spend up to 4–5x that — between £300m–£475m — and still comply with PSR, depending on wages and contract lengths.
(Not saying we will do that, it comes with its own risks but)…
If Man Utd sold the following players:
•Højlund £40m
•Garnacho £55m
•Rashford £40m
•Antony £32m
•Sancho £25m
•Casemiro £15m
•Malacia £8m
•Bayindir £6m
Total income: ~£221m
Players leaving on frees:
• Lindelof, Eriksen, Heaton
Annual wage savings from all above: ~£86.5m
Summary
• £221m in sales
• £86.5m wage savings
• £95m pure profit = PSR gold
• Could open the door to £400m+ spending this summer if reinvested smartly
