We don't have undroppable wingers either. Time to get rid of one of the older wingers and give him a squad position.
I think we paid something like €30-40M for him two years ago. If he’s not ready for the first team squad this season, that was a daft price.

£18m + something like 15m in addons.
Still daft if he doesn't play.

The Athletic is reporting that back in January, Ralf kept telling Murtaugh and Arnold that Ronaldo needed to be sold and the attack reconfigured. Jibes with him pushing in January as well to sign a new young forward.

But Ralf was shit of course, and it’s his fault the season went wrong. The club told us so. And the brilliant things they’ve done since then prove the club know what they’re doing =))

Daft innit, how they recruited Ralf to makes changes but then didn't make changes, which forced Ralf to voice his concerns publicly (like LVG and Mourinho), which led to the club not taking him on as a 'consultant' because they felt his public statements were damaging to the club (like LVG and Mourinho).

It's Ground Hog Day at Old Trafford.

It's the facade of change without the actual change bit happening.

They've made all the right noises but anything that compromises their commercial first approach, and the primary objective of dividends, is not enacted. It's quite farcical now.

Into July and our only signings are a cheap young LB and, once more, an ageing player who is out of contract. United stopped deserving the benefit of the doubt a long time ago. The facts speak for themselves.

This video appears quite revealing. The club are showing more and more footage from training as if to show the Ten Hag transformation at work. But in this video he can be heard saying the players are "making too many mistakes" :))

Notice as well it's the same drill over and over. De Jong said he does this for weeks & months on end until they get good at it. I bet some of them already think he's a cunt

How long before those cunts get him sacked because they don't like his modern training and ethos of hardwork?

So many of these players need booting. Including Ronaldo - no issue with him wanting out, but he's acting like a cunt about it. Culture and team above all. Hag needs backing to the hilt. There really is nowhere else for the club or these players to go after this.

Apparently Harry Maguire has 'liked' a social media post about Ronaldo being unhappy at having to take a pay cut after we failed to qualify for the CL. The captain of Manchester United.
