30yr Old Casemiro (5× Champions League winner): £60m “Too old and overpriced.”
29yr Old Bruno Guimaraes (Carabao Cup winner): £75m “Bargain.”
Transfer fees only become a national debate when Manchester United are involved.
League champions Arsenal already have the PL's best DM in Declan Rice but have added another physical presence in Bruno Guimaraes...
While Man Utd who finished 3rd won't sign a similar midfielder because Mason Mount has impressed in pre-season in a deeper role.
Okay.
Bruno G, Anderson, Tonali, Fernandes, all on the move when United were the club that needed to rebuild their midfield the most....But don't worry. INEOS have invented a new way of winning the league that's never worked ever. Not spending big money.
No UCL signings:
Di Maria, Zlatan, Pogba, Bruno, Casemiro, Martinez, Cunha, Yoro, De Ligt.
UCL signings:
Amrabat, Hojlund, Mount, Lee Grant, Onana, Reguillon, Dalot, Fred, Santos, Dan James.
It’s quite clear the aim is to get into the UCL for revenue but not actually compete.
🔴 From what I understand, Man Utd are torn between a 3rd midfielder or a LB, given concerns over Luke Shaw’s fitness record. Even after a clean last season, his injury history still makes them hesitant
Rejected the richest house in Westeros, the largest navy, AND Vhagar... all because Otto sent his daughter into his room late at night with a book. Worst political mind in Westeros history
