    Just another work around they’ve done.
    That's based on the fee paid - Not wages - TBF to Chelsea/Spurs they don't pay big wages - Most contracts have review points based into them unless they are going for a top tier player - Chelsea are hoovering up baby talent at low wage cost. IF they succeed - great, if they don't sell on - TBH its a form of trafficking that Chelsea do well

      Back to Utd - I still don't see a number 9, their defence is wank and the goalkeeper is a liability - Rashford they need to get rid off - Sancho - there is £30m in wages and BD fees to pay in his last year - If I was Sancho I'd sit my last 12 months out on Utd' contract and get a guaranteed £15m - **** Utd. on Antony - Not sure where can start as Betis aint paying those wags and a fee

            It just shows you the Bundasliga can be very deceiving too. Sancho looked like a world beater at Dortmund for 3 seasons putting up ridiculous numbers (I think some people forget just how good his stats were) & has looked so bang average for two different clubs playing in the prem. That's the risk, some players don't translate. Lets hope if we get Wirtz, he's is one that does

              Weren’t there loads of comments with Sancho on his ego and attitude when he was at Man U? I think that personality (no dickheads) aspect is vastly under appreciated when players are being scouted. Having some humility is a key aspect and Utd seem to have issues with this.

                Seems his attitude has been under question throughout his career, was routinely late for training at Dortmund and going back to his time at Man City.

                  He was indulged at Dortmund, but apparently when he went back he was a model pro no dramas at Chelsea either they just didn't want to pay £275k a week for him

                      Omg is that true? How embarrassed must you be if you were Hojlund or Dirksen

                          I think thats 4 in all comps. Hojlund did 4 in the prem. 10 all up. Which is still pretty sad for a 72mil purchase player.

                            all it takes is one or two egos and that can ruin the harmony of the entire squad. United have been plagued with this for years.

                              Isn't Cunha a bit of a handful too? They have a massive job on their hand with the rebuild, will be very interesting, and hopefully fun, to watch.
