ChristoBam:Hehe, these clubs spend dirty money, we don’t have dirty to spend and we have matched them in terms of spending. You still want us to spend more so we can go bankrupt or so we can get to the point where we would have to sell a stake to a Hedge Fund that will take 30 percent of your cash flows at source? |

nitrogen:You are comparing Man Utd to these hapless clubs. You do yourself a disservice with such lines of arguments. United make the most money in England, they have the highest capacity stadium, make the highest from the gates, etc. There’s no way a club like Man Utd can go under. The argument here is that the £1 billion taken from the club by the Glazers could have been re-invested back into the club in player signings, stadium renovation and what not but those useless parasites took it to service loans and they took dividends. |

The Manchester United Starting XI that faced Wrexham today: Kovar; Laird, Varane, Martínez, Telles, Iqbal, Garner, Eriksen, Chong, Hannibal, Garnacho. They won 4 - 1...... behind closed Door. |

nitrogen:You don't get the point! The Glaziers put us into this situation and that's what we've been saying from the beginning. How can you say spending a lot more on transfers will make us go bankrupt when more than €1 Billion has gone into their debts and dividends? We were debt free before these fvckers took over. There's no escaping the fact we got into debt and a lot of our revenue go into debt repayment because of these guys. These clubs use dirty money because they don't have the revenues we have and they're trying to compete financially with us. The reason they're successful is they splash the money until they see the success. United will back Ten Hag financially for max of two summers. And leave him to hang after. That's how they balance their finance. How do we get sucess with this? |

ovoP:I don't think this is what I reacted to. You said buying these players is to appease Ronaldo and not for the club. You didn't question if there are 7 quality players we could have gotten. You instead implied that going after those quality players will be because of Ronaldo, and not that the club is in serious need of those players The new coach believes in a lot of these old players? What about the report we heard the other day that claims otherwise? |

Nitogen definitely knows that Glaziers are parasites, sucking the life out of the club. But for whatever reason, he's sticking to their defense. I hope you're not one of those that see themselves in the position of the Glaziers in years? I know people like that. Think they'll become billionaires so mount a defence against anyone attacking Billionaires. No dey whine yourself sha. |

eph12:I was trying to explain its a gradual process, and we should not be bullied into buying 7 players at once because of a 37 year old.. |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by eph12(m): 9:12pm On Jul 27, 2022 |
ovoP:I'm still wondering why you think this club should not be bullied into buying 7 players at once, when its for the club benefit. Or just maybe your real problem is the 37 years old person, and not the buying of players |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by ChristoBam: 9:13pm On Jul 27, 2022 |
For ETH to become successful under the Glaziers, he'll need extreme good luck. The kind of luck that presented Arnold to Klopp. Or allowed VVD to be available at the point they wanted a CB. 1) Luck 2) Financial backing 3) Great system. That's what he'll need to be successful under these parasites called Glaziers. |

ChristoBam:You are OYO. I don’t care if they are billionaires. I just hate it when people that have not run a business before suggest or tell people that run empires and multi-billion businesses what to do. I run businesses and manage funds for myself and for others, so, I know what’s going on. You guys just think it’s about spending and spending. It’s beyond that. There are several moving parts! |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 9:19pm On Jul 27, 2022 |
ChristoBam:The owners are not parasites. Also, the only thing ETH needs is luck. He has his own system and he’s got financial backing. |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 9:21pm On Jul 27, 2022 |
ChristoBam:Dividend is less than 150m, which means they have not taken out a lot as such. Btw, go check what financial leverage means and what it does to a business/company. Finally, if any fan is not happy with the owners, he/she should go support another club until the owners sell. Simple! |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by ovoP(m): 9:21pm On Jul 27, 2022 |
eph12:my point is if we're buying 7 players, we're not going to get 7 quality players out there.. |

nitrogen:What's going on is clear and obvious. The debt they've plunged the club in is clear and obvious. People run businesses mostly for their personal gain. Manchester United is a football club held to heart by millions of fans all over the world. We're supposed to watch on and shut up cuz we don't run million dollar empire but the ones that do are turning the club into a money making machine for themselves and running the football side into the ground? You don't even know what you're saying. Without the Glaziers, only God knows what heights we'd have reached by now. If we were in debt, it'd be because we've invested crazy money into players and a stadium. |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 10:34pm On Jul 27, 2022 |
ChristoBam:Man Utd is a business first, football club second. It was the other way round before the 21st century. Tell me why Facebook, instagram are businesses even though billions of people cherish and use both platforms? |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 10:35pm On Jul 27, 2022 |
ChristoBam:No one can tell. You don’t know if we would be battling relegation with other small clubs (post Fergie era). |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by ChristoBam: 11:11pm On Jul 27, 2022 |
nitrogen:Man just compared Manchester Utd to Facebook. That your first statement is why the Glaziers are bast*rds. I'm not even going to argue with you on that. It's the effect of years of Glaziers. It's now Business first and football after. For the profit of a family. |

nitrogen:You're like a Nazi German defending Hitler. |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 11:44pm On Jul 27, 2022 |
ChristoBam:Lool, everything is business these days. It’s the oil that keeps the engine running. No one can deny the fact that football is now a very big business. Fans will only continue to be emotional, and football club owners will continue to cash out either through distributions or capital appreciation (except money launderers). It is what it is! |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 11:51pm On Jul 27, 2022 |
ChristoBam:….and why can’t I compare both? Man Utd is selling a product to us the fans, Facebook is also selling a product, Infact, Facebook’s product appeals to almost everyone that’s why billions are using the platform vs Utd that has a section of football fans. There is a reason commercializations are happening, and the club is spending a lot on marketing and adverts. Also, there is a reason major brands are using football to talk about their products. This is beyond you in every aspect. Live with it! |

ChristoBam:That talk was pure poppycock. 20 years ago, United were at the top of the food chain…the richest club in the world and were higher than the likes of Madrid, Bayern and Barcelona. The glazers came in and ruined the club. |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by patrickmuf(m): 12:09am On Jul 28, 2022 |
Let's get one thing clear, it's not the lack of spending that's the problem but the lack of a coordinated structure in place to ensure we get the right players for the right value...Even if we had spent £3bn in the last 10 years, it simply would have seen us pay £50m more for for the likes of Pogba, Maguire, Bruno etc... The biggest problem is the management structure where we have too many square pegs in round holes and not necessarily the amount spent as we have kept pace with the rest of Europe in that aspect (Amount spent)... |

Oasis007:Can he play as a DM? |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 5:52am On Jul 28, 2022 |
TeslaFC:He's a CB, precisely LCB and he's signed to play as a CB. Board should spend on getting a DM, the Era of forcing players to play in another position in the name of versatility should be gone! |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Leyqute(m): 7:02am On Jul 28, 2022 |
patrickmuf:The spending was a part of it. People have short memories. When the system was in place with Fergie and David Gill. They refused to spend money. Fergie created lots of excuses for them and had to recall Scholes from retirement to plug the hole in midfield. It was when the system was gone with SAF and David Gill and they started missing out on UCL money that they started throwing money at the problem. This way they’ll get UCL football and… you guessed it - more money. If the Glazers could make more money without investing in player transfers, trust me, they will. After all, that’s what they were doing before SAF left. Man Utd is a badly run club because of the Glazers greed and blindness to everything else apart from money. |
