TIDDOLL:
please stop saying "both clubs" stop comparing or contrasting
Man United isn't in the same situation as Arsenal.
In fact Arsenal is way behind,
Yes, we were glorious in the past..
Nd we are still very much relevant at the moment.
All football clubs take lots of years to rebuild after the end of an Era,

But we are right back on spot!!
Unlike the likes of Ajax, The Milano clubs, Liverpool and perhaps Arsenal..

GGMU!

I'll be here to remind you.

Darammliveth:
Sanchez will surely strive in Man Utd.... Along side Pogba, martial, mata and LUKAKU will definitely come good. Imagine a Martial Mata Sanchez behind lukaku. Pogba has been picking from where he stopped at Juve, the guy is class if he can keep his play simple.

Lukaku would come good Amin! Dude is just a white elephant we never needed, mou should have spent that dough on a quality m.f to complement mikhi n pogba...the more creativity in mf, the more goals you get. Now I feel terribly bad for rashford, started out upfront with a lot of promise now hes been drafted to the wings n bench while wasted £75M on that crap called lukaku

wetin concern chelsea

mansnothot098:
Congratulations to him. personally i think the wage is quite much for a 29 year old.

Win big with me in this long month of January and settle you bills.

this thief ,you no de tire ? Onyeoshi

Xavier9ja:
Alexis and martial on both flank equals wicked combination

I noticed this love lots of man united fans have for martial. Is it that you guys don't like rashford or what? I expected you to have said alexis and rashford on both flanks

So Europa league trophy nor be something?

SkgeeBoss:


Done a lot
Last time I checked Man United have been one of the biggest spenders in the epl yet with nothing tangible to show for it...
He claimed some series of FA CUP and it's not like he is coming from a club(Barcelona) where he hasn't won prestigious trophies.

Lukaku was a panic buy in my opinion

OVA200:
Mourinho is an insult to united he is always too jealous about rival and always show it, how will you sign a player with that age and in such condition (desperately to leave)) for such a high wages and same nothing is guaranteed at the end of the season, he suppose to put his other player to consideration now.
I hope man utd won't waste a lot of their budget on salary in few years to come because this transfer will definitely break man utd salary scale when the likes of De Gea, Pogba, Martial, Lukaku, Bailly, etc want to sign another contract they won't stick with their current wages anymore.
This is a desperate signing commonly find in Mourinho (Same with Pogba which is buy-out clause is around 65 million then).

I may sound like hater but this is the bitter truth.

Why blame Mourinho for the deal? Doesn't United have director of football and a management to make proper deals? The last time I checked managers don't negotiate. They can only make their desire known about a player.

oodua1stson:
yeah because sterling and Barkley are disloyal south Americans like Javier Zanetti

u don't know the context of our discussion, so don't jump into it

SkgeeBoss:


Both clubs are shadows of their past glory which u know...
Both clubs are still trying to play at the level they are known for.
It's not like Man United is a quick shortcut to winning trophies...
He went there for the money...
Greed over loyalty.

He went there for money? Lame talk... He's tired of arsenal, he no future with arsenal. The world knows what kind of fighter he is last season and yet arsenal still ended up in europa

To be frank, man United is one of the biggest club in England if not the biggest and they can pay any amount for any player they want

I see no issue in a player salary as long as he plays good football. Many say he should have gone to city to win trophy, and when last did man u win a trophy? I guess they won 2 and city won nothing even though they are already winning this season epl. Don't say he went for money as if current football is not about money

LesbianBoy:


I noticed this love lots of man united fans have for martial. Is it that you guys don't like rashford or what? I expected you to have said alexis and rashford on both flanks

martial have got pace, vision, tricks and 90% dribble accuracy. Rashford at the other end is the show boy, he can dribble everybody on the pitch but his finish are not clinical. Rashford need to work more on learning when to score and when to pass the ball.

LesbianBoy:

Rashford have dropped drastically in the past few games, he's getting more selfish and lack decision taking

Martial have been better than rashford from time, it's just about form. Martial is on fire now, rashford is not... but I can't blame him, he's not up to 21 years future still bright

naturalwaves:
This means that Manchester United will have a good backup should there be an injury. That forward line is getting seriously loaded. Manchester United also need a very good back up for Matic. Matic is being seriously overworked.

Seriously... He needs a support... Herrera is not helping matters so far this season.

That's not the case in every team, Mourinho said that yesterday, this current Man utd board gives Mourinho the power to makes his choice and they promised to get it for him but not publicly, same with Man City, Liverpool, Arsenal etc so Mourinho persuade them to get him by all means, but a team like Madrid, Barcelona, PSG etc makes transfer without the coach approval. That's what caused havoc in Chelsea Last season.

What I am saying is that he didn't make negotiations. With proper negotiations, they could have made a better deal. That Mourinho wanted the player is another thing.

internationalman:

exactly how many assists does he have.

Pogba is undoubtedly a good player, but he should've cost around 40-50million pounds.

sharap ND go ND chk his stat last season check how many chances he created ND also chk dis season stats

how soon is the soon,am getting tire of this recycled news everyday

DoTheNeedful:

I understand you bro but Sanchez look destined to go to City the only way united can get him is only through cash (which they did), what am saying is if Mourinho didn't persuade them too much ordinarily man utd won't make this type of a deal and if they refuse to get Sanchez for him that might be his excuse at the end of the season (we all know Jose) meanwhile he can give them alternatives like (lemar, Malcom, Dybala etc).

Bro it is better to pay a huge transfer fees than a huge salary (tevez as a case study) because that can cause dressing room upset and break salary scale. ( I read now Pogba is also demanding 400K per week now though it might just be a rumor now but something similar will eventually happen.)

Chucksonline:
So Europa league trophy nor be something?

Carrying Europa shows the level of fall from grace to grass.
Man United having to play Europa then likewise arsenal is currently shows how both clubs are gone down the drain.

pat077:
That's much for a player with six months left on his contract

And the player ain't going to world cup
So the case of performing well in world cup and attract other teams is unrealistic
Well their money their prob

Kenneth10110:



Two Fa cups and two community shield

Omo see trophies o

Manchester United are not paying £35m... it's a direct swap deal with no money involved..

Lomprico2:


Chelshit fan spotted! Bad belle

How far with peter crouch sef? Una don buy am?

I'm juve sorry

He won two FA cup. Or is that not a trophy

Felixalex:


No trophies at arsenal either, so if he won't win trophies to enhance his profile, then he should chase money and enhance his bank account. Football is more of business now than those days when there were still some measure of passion n club-loyalty.

martineverest:
Sanchez is after money,no trophies

Abegi. Am an arsenal fan,and am saying his chances of getting a trophy is so much higher than getting anything under wenger, if the deal is lucrative, more money for him, he sure deserves better

I may sound like hater but this is the bitter truth.


Modified: I just read a rumor now that Pogba is also demanding for 400K per week (that's what am saying).

you're an insult to every football fan worldwide.



1st of Pogba did not have a release clause at Juventus. It is nothing but bare stupidity to blame the coach for what a player earns or the amount of his transfer when the coach doesn't even negotiate transfer or contracts at all. Yes, he can recommend players (like when Mourinho recommended Perisic) but if the club consider the player too expensive they will stop negotiations ( like in the case of Perisic).


In the case of Alexis; the board needed him not just for football reasons but because he's a marquee signing and he will expand United's popularity in south America. The publicity and the merchandise to be sold is the reason why the board needed him for more than just his football qualities.


If you think Mourinho negotiates transfer fees and wages then you're a football illiterate who needs to start watching ballet dancing or play ludo

vosquare:

You're right. I don't know what is wrong with him. This season. If Matic should suffer a knock or gets injured, there would be serious problem. Anyway, the presence of Sanchez will make Pogba drop back to help the midfield in that case and that won't be too bad.

#GGMU!!!

Patiently waiting for Chelshit fans who are known to be unsolicited accountants to start balancing the amount spent and how extravagant ManUtd is.

Same thing they shouted about Pogba,We thank God that has died a natural death after he keeps pulling assists.

haters to die of heart attack.t
