45, 14, 32, 19 games per season for Martinez. That’s why you can’t rely on Martinez. His injury record is not the best and whilst it’s not his fault that we’re in the hole created by years of poor decisions, we’re now running with a relatively small squad given the amount of football we’re playing ...

Why sell Martinez? He’s class. He gets injuries, but that’s a big difference from Zirkzee and Ugarte, who simply aren’t good enough and you wouldn’t bother playing even when fit. You’d pay a fortune to get another CB with Martinez quality. It’s worrying how things are going this summer. But the rumo...

Sangare the DM at Lens is 24.

10 months old, but very interesting insight into the culture at the club and the change under Ineos by an employee of 20 years: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNWsPQWwHNU Very interesting video, thanks for sharing. It's remarkable how incompetent the Glazers and Woodward were. The stats in the vid...

United should go shopping in France for midfielders. You still get decent value for money there, and I always feel like players in the French league transition to the PL more consistently than other leagues, even supposedly better ones. I could be wrong about that, but that's my impression. Bouaddi ...

If Fernandes goes to Spurs instead of United so that his agent can make more money on the deal, then he's not the right player for us anyway. We turned things around last season because we'd brought in more players with the right motivation.

Aye, thought the same regarding Bouaddi. He was all action but with the technique and brain to back it up. Maz was their best player behind Diaz and Bouaddi. Had his side locked down defensively, but still played half the time in midfield starting moves. And regarding samba football, when is the la...

Agreed, Stiller cold be had for less than £50m, Sangare at Lens could be had for less. Both are just as good as anything in the Prem but without paying the premium. Don't think the scouting department like to look beyond these shores just at the moment though, so we're stuck with paying over the od...

Really impressed with Morocco, they could be proper darling horses. Maz doing well and that Bouaddi kid looks special, we should be in for him. I have to say, it's the most ordinary Brazil squad I can ever remember at a world cup I was about to post the same thing. Mazraoui has been class, and Boua...

Whitwell reckons we can't afford Rashford now the squads' wages are back up to normal cos of CL qualification The output to risk ratio isn't worth it. He might have fucked his career up tbf. Be a shame if so. He's probably gonna have to wind his neck in, take a pay cut and join a shitish club. Well...
