WestYorksRoyal The decision to pass on Dybala due to excessive wages and lack of enthusiasm is, for me, a sign Man Utd have learned from recent mistakes and are moving in the right direction. A quality player undoubtedly, but could easily have been a repeat of Di Maria and Sanchez.

You can baulk at the fees they have spent this summer, but these are young, hungry players who will contribute to a good atmosphere. Another few years of this and they may start to close the gap.

Another few years !!! :shock:
And then close the gap ? :shock: :lol:
They'll have spent the GDP of more than a dozen of the world's nations by then. And their fans have the balls to call out City for buying the title :roll:
I suppose it won't be classed as buying the title - since they won't have won it - just closed the gap

From Despair To Where? An observation that could have been aimed at anyone signing for Liverpool not so long ago.

What comes around goes around.


Nice though when it is currently not happening to our country's richest club.
Almost as good as when they were relegated.


have our league positions really varied that much in the last couple of seasons?

We still haven't cleared a lot of the deadwood either

Rojo, Darmian, Jones, Young, Mata, Matic, Sanchez should not be playing for United

There are others who are squad players that should be upgraded when possible Fred, Lukaku, Lingard etc

However two very solid buys in Maguire and AWB. James is rapid!!!! Ridiculous acceleration but will he deliver?

To be fair most teams have done it.

Man city brought NoLOLito.

Chelsea has done it since buying Chris Sutton with a few gems like Kezman and Maniche thrown in.

I remember when West Ham brought Marco Boogers who pfucked off to a caravan after two games

Obviously the money spent is vastly different.

1. We are all aware that this didn't quite happen, right?

Classic Harry Redknapp.

2. Massive differences in price tag & wages.

United still don't look that good up top. McGuire is a beast though.....well worth the money. Chelsea were Chelsea were just utter shite....which pleases me.

Fair play Utd but I thought Chelsea looked ok.

Never a 4-0 game on balance of play and chances created.

Agreed RR, it wasn't a 4-0 beating. In fact Chelsea could quite easily have been 2-0 up by half time.

Great to see Maguire get off to a good start though. I like him, and for England's sake I hope he kicks on from here.

Wolves are a proper shithouse park-the-bus team

Really stinking this game up with negative tactics
