When it comes to Manchester United signing Youri Tielemans & Andrey Santos compared to Elliot Anderson, Mateus Fernandes or Sandro Tonali that it's a question of quality, it's not. It is value for money.
Nobody is denying how good Anderson is, but he wanted to join City & even if he didn't, he is not worth £116m. The club can't spend that on a single player this summer. Fee the justifiable reason to walk away.
Nobody is denying they wanted Fernandes, but even if he was worth £85m the club couldn't blow up their wage structure to make him a top 3 paid player. Wages alone the justifiable reason to walk away.
Tonali simply wasn't worth the fee or the money. There is no world where he is worth £100m & the same wage Bruno Fernandes is paid. The club were right to walk away from that one a long time ago.
Even if you are ok with the fees being quoted in an inflated market, dressing room dynamics play a part. Good luck explaining to Cunha, Mbeumo, Sesko & Mainoo why those players are paid so much more.
Manchester United are reducing a bloated wage structure. It's clear wage bills correlate with success & it will naturally increase with better performance & as the club recovers from a revenue perspective.
The club spent years upon years doing bad deals. Overpaying for transfers who seemed like good ideas, giving out bloated contracts to players who seemed worth it. How do people have such short memories?
Labelling people who understand or care about the financial aspect as accountants misses the point. You should care about the money too. It all ties into the club's ability to spend to it's absolute maximum.
Context matters. If you aren't paying attention, maybe you should start - because you're missing the point.
Can’t wait to lead our team out at another World Cup! Excited to get on the pitch tomorrow with the boys! I know we’ll have incredible support out here and at home! We will give everything we’ve got! 🏴🦁
I can't take anyone seriously who thinks the INEOS-led regime at Manchester United are the same as the Glazers. There is no tangible proof or evidence of that.
They have invested money in the club, put an actual football structure in place for the first time, improved club facilities & are slowly fixing the finances. All done so with the limitations of not having majority ownership.
It is undoubted that they haven't got everything right & have had to wear warranted criticism, but they are nothing like the rodent infestion that is the Glazers.

"What I don't like is when PEOPLE LIE about things, and in this case, what you said about Roy Keane, basically, WHAT HE SAID IS A LIE."
