The radio said he is intending to stay in manchester and travel down. Hows that going to work?
Thats gotta be bollocks
It shows the level of commitment he has towards the move that he can't even be bothered to move closer to Bodymoor.  This signing is an utter betrayal.
I am not a fan of this deal but this is load of bollocks.

It reminds me of the 9/11 attacks.

We're getting a footballer on loan for a few months, not renaming the Holte after the 'Cambridge Five'.

I thought it was ok when it was said we were only paying half his wages. That seemed a good bargain and no lose situation. If we are now paying as much as claimed it seems v high risk and desperation because we’ve had another terrible window!

If we were paying half his wages, we'd probably be paying a loan fee too. It appears we're not paying a loan fee, so as others have done the sums, financially speaking, it's the same, probably cheaper.

Bloody hell this convinces me, you’re normally so sunny and positive and not prone to melodrama at all….

To me, it looks like Rashford wants games so he can make a move to a Champions league regular next season. I'm sure that would suit Man U as well.

If that is the case, I get why he wouldn't want to relocate.

The problem with Rashford is that, yes, he clearly has a lot of talent and needs to get back on the right course, and the right manager could very well do that.

I just can't forgive him for annexing the Sudetenland, though.

People can't actually expect the man to move for a 3 month loan in a city that's 90 minutes away.

I'm sure he can afford a hotel should dire need require him to.

This is the very definition of getting upset over nothing. He doesn’t need to clock in for a shift at Rover at 7am. 90 minutes commute is nothing at all.

At least he has stopped everyone arguing about how good/ shit Watkins is.

Precisely. The alternative way to think of it is he’s a short term free transfer and is taking a 30% pay cut to come here.

He might prove to be terrible, but if he is, it’s cost us about 4 mill in wages. Not great, but a LONG way from being a disaster given Buendia and Carlos would easily have costs us the same.
