nitrogen: What are you saying now, we spent close to what City has spent in the last 5 years. Where are all these yarns coming from now? Try to read through the comments maybe you will get the argument/point. |

GloryIsaac: This is the challenge with offering massive wages to players. The moment they become a liability to the club, it becomes tough getting them off the book, not because of their ability, but because of their wages.
According to reports, Suarez has an offer from Ajax, but that comes with a significant pay cut, whether he takes it or holds Barca to ransom is solely his choice. Same reason why I'm scared of united offering pogba a new contract, if the guy starts with his shenanigans again it will be difficult to offload him. |

Expert17: We have to be fast with Sancho's deal.
Once Barcelona offload Coutinho, Rakitic, Suarez and some other stars...they will surely look to the direction of Sancho. You think it's easy to offload players like Suarez and coutinho who are on big wages? See how long it took us to offload sanchez. How many clubs are willing to buy them? |

eph12: Yeah about Ed, I wonder where they brought that guy from. He's very cunny Ed Woodward is the one that facilitated the deal that made the Glazers owners. That's why he is the CEO, reward of the hardwork done in the past  |

eph12: So let's say if the Glazers were to spend their own money too, we probably may have spent around 1b in the last 5 years right? Yes but they don't, Even the Russian oligarch puts his personal money into chelshit including transfer fees, Everything that has to do with money making comes from United not the Glazers. Finally they have take over a billion out of the club since their ownership and nothing pumped into the club while City's owners have pumped over a billion into the club since they took over see the difference? |

eph12: But I'm looking at the data now, and we have spent more than everyone in the epl except city. I think this is the major issue here and not how they bought the club or how they are spending the club's money. What I'm looking at now is how bad we have been when it comes to spending money on transfers We generate more money that any other club in the EPL so it's logical we spend more money, the problem is United should be spending more but can't due to The glazers model of business as Afrodoc has explained. United pay the Glazers a consultancy fee of 10M every year, What kind of Consultancy   United is the only club that pays it's owners consultancy fee! |

eph12: Uhm from what afrodoc2 explained, sounds like they transferred collateral or asset from whatever it was to United assets Exactly |
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Panther7(m): 5:05pm On Aug 19, 2020 |
eph12: They used the assets of the club to secure the loan? This sounds like some gangster shit. They already owned the club or how were they able to use the club assets to secure the loan used in buying the club? Like they were able to convince the banks that they will definitely buy united instead of using their own assest as collateral, they used the club's own. |
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Panther7(m): 5:03pm On Aug 19, 2020 |
afrodoc2: They are spending enough of the money made by the club to keep the club competitive enough to keep on making money.
They have not spent any of their own money. The club they own was bought via loans to be paid back by the club.
Other clubs owned by billionaires get extra money from their owners for transfers, our own billionaires use the money the club generates to pay off debt they caused in the first place, then pay themselves huge allowances before thinking of buying players.
They know if they stop spending completely the club will run down fast and stop making money. There is a reason during Fergie's time the club was selling Ronaldo for world record fee and replacing him with Valencia and co. When he left they tried to continue the same policy with piece meal Fellaini signing until reality struck.
Let's not make the Glazers up to be some kindly and generous benefactors. They are leeches who played a major role in all that has happened post Fergie. Afrodoc, Do you think part of the reasons Ferguson resigned was because he knew the Glazers couldn't keep up with the spending like City did? |

Expert17: We know all that,.
But we are spending heavily on Transfers regularly.
Maguire- Highest fee for a defender in EPL Pogba- Highest fee for a midfieder in EPL
We still have the 2nd highest wage bill in the world. We are spending heavily on one player, the spending is not evenly distributed. People keep saying we spent 200M but we just bought 4 players just 4! Out of that 200M 80 went to slabhead. Even the players we bought are replacement for players that left Maguire for smalling and AWB for Valencia, we didn't spend money to upgrade any position except from bruno which was need. |

afrodoc2: It is not that simple. The Glazers are leeches and have been taking money out of the club for years. Do you remember the details of their takeover and why we keep paying off debt every year? Exactly!! They borrowed money to even buy United, it is regard as the most hostile takeover of any Football club till date. |

Expert17: So Leipzig and Spurs players are better ours??
Yes , we need signings but this man can't tweak formation, can't make big decisions, so many things guyy Leipzig are a side punching above their weight with little or no pressure on them. Spurs?? Even the "special one " is screaming for more addition  |

eph12: How is this a fault of Glazers? I don't understand. They have been releasing money, they still released 200m last season. It's not their fault if the money is spent wrongly Guy, the Glazers have never spent any of their personal money on united, they 'released money' abi the money the club made  |

Leyqute: Was about to mention this.
How many teams got to the semi final of all the competitions they entered at the beginning of the season?
We were 3 wins away from lifting 3 trophies. That in itself is not enough but no be moinmoin. Last season how many finals did we get to and how many semi finals?
Expert, if progress was staring at you in the face you wouldn’t see it. People are just quick to criticize, before January how many people saw United finishing 3rd with 3 semifinals? Na Bruno cause all these now some people think we should be uplifting the champions league. All is well! |

eph12: Only City has outspent us in the last 5 years. Let that sink in. Glazers have not been stingy with the money where was the money spent on? Is united spending or overpaying for players? United will continue to overspend when you don't have proper scouting departments and proper transfer policies, Imagine a club like United doesn't have a director of football? Even the spending was down to a new manager coming in and saying "Get me player X and Y" When has United buy ever been strategic in the last 5 years? Just recently when Ole came we have had some sort of direction. You are comparing United to City?  a club that is properly run, identifies their target and go for them without making noise or arguing over transfer fee of 10M. Even liverpool that hasn't outspent us you see the value of what they have spent. |

Expert17: How will Woodward get players for small fees when OLE makes us look desperate by losing 3 Semi-finals and showing the world we need additions desperately.... Don't we need additions desperately? Shouldn't Ole call out Woodward when he is debating with Dortmund over a 10M fee? What's the talk about Ole losing 3 semifinals, FFS even the 'special one' couldn't even lead us to 3 semifinals in a season. Do I think ole needs to improve on the tactical side? Yes. Do united players need to improve? Yes Should Woodward do his job better? HYFR!!! Should the Glazers improve and put more money in to the club? FFS yes! If we want to apportion blame let's do it evenly. No be every time "ole this ole that". Nobody on this thread ever calls out the Glazers Nobody!!! For una e no dey pass Ole and Rashford. |

Lana1: We dont need to buy too many players. Get a RW and finally fix that wing once and for all. Get one CM and if chance dey a LB. How much we spend to get them is another story entirely.
The manager also needs to work on himself and his players. Too many inconsistencies. "We don't need to buy too many players" Can you trust this squad to play a Chelsea on a saturday play champions league on a wednesday and play maybe a liverpool on sunday? And you won't rotate players? The manager clearly doesn't trust the players on the bench but "we don't need many players" las las na fatigue go kill this team, they will only play exciting football for the first 15 matches and play rubbish through out the season and they only have 1 month to rest before the season starts. Goodluck to Ole, I trust Woodward to do the usual screw things up in the transfer window. |

MRTA7: All I know if that Sancho better not be the only major signing we make.
On a slightly different note, I feel like Ole needs to add to his coaching setup.Maybe some more tactical experience. He seems to be doing well with his individual coaching but I'm not sure about the teams tactical strength. God bless you, Ole is a good man manager but tactical side not so great, I don't think he will add to his coaching staffs cos he trust them and he has known them for years. |
