United are putting season tickets up by 5% next season!

do they ever have guests that don't have some form of sexual assault charge against them in the white house now?

Fine, I don't think an injury ravaged player that is not deemed good enough to be part of Juventus's plans was ever going to be good enough here. If he was THAT good Motta would have found a way to incorporate him in to his system, especially as his versatility is considered one of his strengths. He's played in virtually every attacking position at some point in his career, so I don't understand how he couldn't get a game at Juventus anymore? As an tha pointed out, if he was absolutely tearing it up in training then I'm sure he'd be getting more game time, but the fact that his minutes have been limited to domestic cups and dead rubbers shows that the manager clearly doesn't rate him. If you disagree hop on a bus to Kirby go and explain to the manager why you know better than him. Is that cogent enough for you?

It's games like that where you see the whole 'Trent can't defend' argument fall down. Even with a centre back at right back we lose the game and completely struggle to break the opposition down. It wasn't until Elliott came on we even looked like cutting Newcastle open.

You mean this formation? Yeah I couldn't possibly see how Chiesa would fit in anywhere here!

So why were Juventus absolutely desperate to get rid of him then? It's clearly not an issue with his personality or attitude. He wasn't fit enough when we signed him, then he broke down in September for 3 months. It's patently obvious that he just isn't cut out for the intensity of this league.

Slot answered this a while back, He can't get to a level where he is fit enough to play regularly for us. He trains then he breaks down etc. He's a crock! Why do you think Juventus were absolutely desperate to get him off their books in the summer?

Cunha is meant to be a bit of a liability off the pitch.

Is it big money though? Newcastle paid £40m for Livramento and about £35m for Hall. They are really good at identifying players and then they actually cough up and go out and buy them! With us there's always so many filters we have to get through before we buy anyone! If we don't buy Kerkez somebody like Chelsea will, even though they've just committed to about £45m to a 17year old Portuguese wing back! We are trying to buy the players of tomorrow at 2017's prices! It's been widely reported that Kerkez will cost around 35/40m because that is the going rate now.

Baleba would cost around £100m though. We aren't paying that.

Classic! Our current crop of full backs have cost around £20m. We've identified a top target that has proven themself in the Premier League and has a close friend already in the squad but yet again it involves putting a hand in a pocket! What the fuck is the point in even tracking these players? How much did they think somebody like Kerkez would cost?? They are living in the past! If you want good players you might have to pay some fucking money for them! I'm sure the likes of Pearce and co will soon be saying unbelievably stupid things like, Liverpool can't afford to spend big on a full back after letting Salah, VVD and Trent go on a free! I'm sick of all this look at how much cleverer than everyone else bollocks! We made a profit on player sales last summer! They need to get out there and start signing the best possible players or fuck off.

Why? We have almost a week in between games for every match now. We only need 5 wins if Arsenal win all nine of their remaing games and they still have two ties with Madrid to navigate around their league games.

Its an absolute shitshow to have not had something sorted by now. No idea how FSG think they are going to replace these three as well as all the others.

Goal stands.

This is where sometimes signing one new player can make a difference. Ornstein said we'd been tracking Kvaratskhelia for a long time, if we'd packed Chiesa back off to Italy and signed him, he'd have added a bit of energy and freshened up our attack again. If you stand still you go backwards. I know we are very likely to win the league but still.
