I just wanted to say this.

It seems people forgot how that Brazilian team played. It’s all individual brilliance for them not very cohesive in team play.

But that prime 2010 Spain squad guys you should go back and watch iniesta highlights. He was a mad man
Brazil 98 squad was even better than the 2002 squad that won the World Cup.

Ronaldo’s convulsion aided France’s win and I can bet French chefs deliberately poisoned Ronaldo before the final.

The sponsors(Nike) also played politics, they forced Mario Zagallo to include Ronaldo in the line up because of commercial earnings. They threatened to withdraw their sponsorship if Ronaldo didn’t start in that World Cup final.

So no Rashford for the first 3 months.
He could have had this surgery in May after Europa final. He would have been close to full recovery by now.

Rashford went to Euros to sit on the bench, contributed nothing apart from his heroic miss that could have put England ahead in the shootout.

Now the club has to suffer his absence for 3 months - the most idïotic decision ever. Klopp would never ever have done this but we have a useless brainless manager at the helm.

Nobody can tell me Ole doesn’t come to this thread to borrow ideas. cheesy grin

So Ole has finally realized he needs to bin McFred and sign an elite DM behind Pogba and Bruno?

I have been saying he should build his team like this for months. Maybe, just maybe there’s light at the end of this dark long tunnel of his career at Old Trafford.

Varane from 150/200K to 400K.

Pogba rejected 350k.

Bruno will ask for 600K when negotiating his contract extension.

Our wage structure is bleeped up.
United knocked off like £2m a week in wages in the last 2 or 3 seasons and there’s more room to sell dormant players like Lingard, Jones, Pereira, etc. Romero has gone.

The wage structure will be alright.

Sir Ole Pull Power. grin

Time to win the league and the champions league. cool

Thank God there won’t be any excuse of “The board didn’t back him” this season.

I hope for the best.
Ole is a rookie. You can’t place that much responsibility on his shoulders. He needs time after all, winning trophies is even an ego thing. It’s not relevant. Who cares about trophies? It can hide weakness.

The most important things are the long rebuilding, the happiness of the fans(including you and I), the general positivity in the atmosphere, the cultural reboot, super talented kids are coming through from the academy.

What’s not to like? cheesy grin

Even Stevie Gerrard(The pride of Liverpool) would have come to United if you had dangled £400K/week in his direction.

Club rivalry, my aśs. grin

Smart dude, time to cash out.
Meanwhile, Harry Kane is like the opposite.

Kane is looking for trophies to win.
Varane is looking for retirement money.

Two contrasting destinies.

Varane is a top Defender. He offers what we can never get from Lindelof, Bailly, Tuanzebe and even Jones. He's a serial Winner, thus he's coming to the Team with right Mentality.
I don’t disagree with this.

I have mentioned it times without number that he’s better than anything we have so he’s a very very good signing.

I was just speaking about the motivation behind the transfer for Varane himself. Olesexuals on social media are driving the romantic narrative that Varane woke up one evening and decided he fell in love with Ole’s methods and was desperate to play for him. grin
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Illimitable: 7:38pm On Jul 27, 2021
There’s always a hater around the corner.

If Chelsea FC had made this signing, you wouldn’t have the gumption to find this video of Varane.

Every defender has made mistakes so take your video back to your thread.

grin if de gea and pogba can earn so much, what is £340k per week which is actually double his £170k he was earning in Madrid and more than the £250k Madrid offered him to renew.
Thanks for the clarity.

Olesexuals were pushing the agenda that Varane fell in love with Ole for losing to Villarreal and having not won a spoon in 3 years.

I was confused: I keep asking myself what does a serial winner like Varane find attractive in a serial loser? Now that you have broken up the math behind the transfer, it’s very clear to me that money was the driver of this transfer.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Illimitable: 7:08pm On Jul 27, 2021
BlueAngel444:
lol salary na 400k per week
Oasis007:
grin

Read he's on £250k per week.
In other words, Varane came to United because we were the only club willing to double his wages at Real Madrid.

He’s won it all and this is just retirement package for him in case Ole doesn’t win a spoon going forward.

Varane is very very smart.

I didn't ask for this long meaningless explanation. Where you still talking about Neuer and Bayern or addressing football fans in general below
I don’t owe you a reply.

If your ego is too big for you to admit you possess a morgue temperature IQ, there’s little I can do to help.

I wasn’t talking to you - the person the reply was meant for understood what I was saying.

OFFICIAL

Manchester United is delighted to announce the club has reached agreement with Real Madrid for the transfer of French international defender and World Cup winner, Raphaël Varane, subject to a medical and to player terms being finalised.
This is good news.

However, Was his salary mentioned or should we keep believing this 4-time CL winner, a World Cup winner really wanted to play for a serial loser like Ole? grin

So your first paragraph was about Neuer and Bayern fans ? Humor me
Bros, go and display your stupïdity elsewhere.

I made a statement and gave an example of entitlement and you call it shifting. I wasn’t having an argument with Raumdeuter, I wasn’t disagreeing with him but you saw what I wrote as a shift? As at the time I was making that post, I didn’t know you would bring your clownery to Nairaland……but you saw a shift?

Next time, when you realize a discourse is intellectually above your level, you shut up and let those in the know carry on with the discussion. It’s not everything you see on here that you jump into like a lunatic without its bearing.

Your first paragraph had nothing to do with Bayern fans and neuer. You shifted to the average fans and talked about fans in general. Your lies are getting irritating.
You are a lunatic. cheesy

So I shifted from average fans to Bayern fans before you challenged me?

As in, I saw the future and knew you would challenge me so I shifted? grin cheesy

My God - who are these people?

Now concerning the Bold. If fans are not happy with the way a club they support is runned, they have no right to voice out their concerns? Is that what you are saying
There’s a clear distinction between voicing out their concerns and actually going to the stadium to riot or disrupt a game.

They already have social media and plenty of forums to voice out their concerns. Taking the violent route is sheer stupidity.

You will never see anyone at the cinema start a riot because of the way Tom Cruise acted in a movie. He’s a paying customer too, just like you.

So why do you have such audacity while the cinema dude wouldn’t even think of it? That’s the stupid entitlement I was talking about.

Please if you don't understand a discussion it's better to shut up and mind your business. Someone said fans are overrated talking about what Bayern fans did to neuer. That's what brought about the entire discussion nothing about the garbage you are dumping in my mention.
So if I was talking about what Bayern fans did to Neuer, why did you involve neutral fans, spectators and tourists?

This mental gymnastic is annoying.

You still haven't answered my question all these while. What is football without people watching games and buying merchandise?
Now, it’s people. cheesy grin

It’s no longer fans?

I was talking about club fans who feel entitled to remove Glazers based on their highs/dips of their emotions or the ones who had the audacity to disrupt a PL game.

So don’t ask me a nonsense question.

They thrived?
Yes they did - otherwise the club should be bankrupt by now to the point that we are all contributing to their GoFundMe.

United didn’t furlough any staff or sack anyone during the pandemic. Every employee at the club got their salary throughout. No player or laundry woman or tea lady has complained about not getting their wages.

That’s thriving.

Can you show me the lies?
This is what you were replying to…..

So tell me how mere spectators or neutral fans would issue Fatwa on Neuer to the extent of reading him a Riot Act on how he should behave at Allianz Arena going forward…..

These are the fans I was discussing with Raumdeuter. You jumped into it and told me the fans are far too important. After you got cornered, you said you meant the entire spectators, neutral fans, opposing fans and the tourists.

Why would a tourist read Neuer a Riot Act?

Why do you people lie unashamedly?

Let him be tying himself up in mental gymnastics.

The topic started with boycott and those that disrupted a PL game last season. I said those people are too entitled and he came with fans are very important.

Why would fans of other clubs or spectators join in the boycott of games or disrupt a PL game? The moment you corner these guys, they move the goalposts.

There are some players that fans will keep rivalry aside and welcome them with open hands. Pogba is not one of them, he hasn't shown why he should
There’s no such player.

Pogba talked shit about PSG and his words have come back to bite his ašs. That’s all to it.

If he never mentioned anything about PSG in the past, there would be no reason to put banners everywhere.

Besides - linking that to the topic we are discussing now. If the owners are keen on getting Pogba and Pogba is also keen on moving to PSG, there’s nothing the fans can do.

They overrate themselves but the real power is with the owners.

And this a relevant information how?
Football existed before merchandise and TV.

United fans are nobodies in the grand scheme of things. If you don’t watch, plenty of other people who don’t give a shit about United as a club would buy tickets just to watch Varane.
