Dirk Gently Talking of bad business, qualifying for the CL triggered a clause in Harry Maguire's contract that meant he gets a 20% pay rise - so suddenly he's that much harder to sell elsewhere.


Wouldn't it be nice to get rewarded for something you had almost nothing to do with in real life!!

Jonny Evans signs short term deal :?

Might be only a deal to provide some cover to those who are still away on internationals/yet to return.

Probably a better option than Maguire.

Man Utd have had at least one player managed by Sir Alex Ferguson at some stage during their career in their first-team squad for 49 consecutive seasons

Rashford signs a deal worth £400,000 per week for 5 years.
God forbid that he gets injured.

Lol, even an apprentice ‘big-hitter’ like yourself can be wrong Oma, it was a genuine comment, despite however you chose to misinterpreted it.

No doubt he (Rashford) will contribute further (and probably heavily), a good use of Man U’s cash.

Ok now?

South Coast Royal Rashford signs a deal worth £400,000 per week for 5 years.
God forbid that he gets injured.


And they wonder why they are 40 mill short of the FFP limit and can't buy anyone decent.
Rashford was utter crap until last December and they reward half a decent season with that?.

Still think that ALL leagues should operate salary caps and maybe limits on overal squad expenditure. The authorities are trying to nanny everyone in everything so why not do it where it might actually be useful and do some good.

Absolutely agree. These players and agents are robbing clubs.

Football as we know it is on death watch.

Oil money taking over. Just 4 essentially state-owned will totally dominate the Saudi League. That's not going to work long-term, so, having got their mitts on European Clubs, oil nations will soon look to move the balance of power totally into their hands. The proposed European Super League will look like it was a great option soon.

Money is all it's really about. Nothing else matters to anyone at the top end of the game. And money corrupts.

Such a shame.
