You can see why Heck bailed.

To LIV - called his bank balance

Can we scrap the North Stand rebuild and offer to spend the money helping Man U with their new stadium, instead? Feel like we aren't helping them enough.

Osula from Newcastle linked.

This like watching haggard husbands shopping on Christmas Eve for their nearest and dearest.

I would assume that we employed Monchi because:

A). of his relationship with Emery and;
B). to be smarter operator in the transfer window than his peers.

I think we can assume that one of those options was correct.

Almaney was the first choice and he backed out late on

Time will prove that we got someone much better for the role. Someone who at the very least will understand the fan base.

And people wonder why monchi gets belters. We let kayode go brentford, now Geertruidas go Sunderland.  While the best monchi can come up with his manchester utd reject lindelof

We haven't let anyone go anywhere. How do you know we were in for them on the first place?

Thats the point  why wasnt we? Both are better than cash

This is the same Geertruidas that has flopped at leipzig?

Shouldn’t we be bashing Monchi for wanting him in the first place rather than missing out on him now?

That Leizpig  team is in free fall  thats why. I mean have you seen matty cash? How poor he is? I mean its only a loan if he flopped we sentd him back minal risk

I seriously  cannot believe we are signing sancho on loan. A complete and utter shambles..panic stations

We are not skint, we are screwed by financial rules. Those same rules are seemingly ignored by other clubs though, seemingly.

You jest, but at least Anthony has shown he can do it still away from Yanited, Sancho hasn't. This isn't an endorsement.

Quite. Any half investigation shows Sancho disrupted at Dortmund (but was performing on the pitch so the management let it go to the ire of other squad members), disrupted at Manure, barely did anything of note at Chelsea so they didn't even bother taking up the option whilst still buying everyother attacking player in the Prem, and now he would be a good fit for us?

Not only that, its was widely reported that they had to spend £5m to send him back.

Please no...my least favourite player in the entire footballing universe.

We absolutely do.  Half the team looks like it doesn’t want to be here.
Well come 7pm tonight they are seriously going to have to get a grip. The whole thing is a mess but they are highly paid professionals, they need to stop feeling sorry for themselves and work together with Emery to put it right. When Unai turned up we had a bottom 4 group of players that became a top 7 group of players in a matter of months, with the only addition really being Moreno.
Im sure Emery can do this again, but all concerned need to a get a f**ing grip.

Stupid suggestion to think we should be going after Ederson at City. Available for £10mil. High wages probably, which fucks us over.

You've answered your own question there.

Why you getting your knickers in a twist. Relax

And you know Geertruidas  and kayode were both loan deals?? We are skint enough  to get shit like sancho and lindelof in so you seriously think we couldn't  have got either one of those on loan?

Just seen the Sancho story. Surely we wouldn’t touch that would we?
