Fwiw I think the project is dead.
No FOS sponsor for 3 years.
Over £1B spent on dross who do not elevate the level of the team in any way.
Maresca will likely get the boot at the end of the season.
Our time is up.
Personally I don’t see how this can be true from @SJohnsonSport. With all due respect Chelsea was bidding £60m+ for Scott the other day, even without Enzo F leaving. Now Henderson joining on a free at 36 years old means no other midfielder as it stands?

🚨 EXCL: Manchester United reach agreement with Chelsea to sign Andrey Santos. Deal for 22yo #CFC midfielder worth £48m + £2m easily achievable add-ons & 10% sell-on clause. Permission given to undergo #MUFC medical; personal terms in place @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/TY4qfwhHT4
Feared this when everyone kept shouting for “experience.”
Signing older players just for the sake of experience isn’t the solution.
We need quality, not risky assets or a 28-year-old simply because he’s 28.
A lot of fans will back it because “Alonso wants him,”.
