Football / Re: The Premiership Thread
« Last post by harv on December 16, 2023, 10:52:42 AM »The Europa League and Europa Conference are the two least important trophies out of the lot. And if we were in the Europa League, with currently 13 players unavailable due to injury and suspension, it would give us too many games to play and affect our ability to get a top four place.
And of course I care about the finances of my club, so should every football fan. Because at the end of the day, spending money wins you trophies. Always has done, always will do. This is why bringing in Blanc to replace Arnold is so important. And why bringinging in Mitchell is also so important. The former will bring in more money to spend, the latter will have us handling transfers properly for the first time in 13 years.
Our recruitment has been bloody terrible since before Fergie retired. We've let good quality Yoof players go for peanuts and overspent bringing in other players. With a half decent bloke in charge of transfers, we would have got Antony in for £45m in June instead of £85m in August.
Unfortunately it's not looking like we're going to get the Rat 🐀 deal done in time for the January transfer window, but we should see an improvement of both incoming and outgoing players in the Summer.
I'm just hoping that the Rat 🐀 is going to stick with ten Hag, because he's the right man for the job. He, like all of the managers since Fergie retired, has been let down by everyone above him. There are also rumours that the Rat 🐀 is going to sort out the medical staff that the board refused to do when ten Hag asked for it to be done last Summer.
The Glazers have destroyed this club over the last 18 years. The finances are screwed, Old Trafford is screwed, Carrington is screwed and morale throughout the entire club is screwed. And it's going to take a LONG time and a lot of money to fix the damage, this is why it was so important for Jassim to buy the club. The Rat 🐀 can fix this damage, but it's going to take him 10 years or so to do so, Jassim would have fixed it in 5 years.
