MWARLEY2 Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 You just cannot second guess Monchi. He is the ultimate wheeler dealer . Just forget what we have to spend in millions. We are paying top 6 salaries while earning midtable money this summer. All 3 signings so far will be on at least 120k a week maybe more. This is where Monchi earms his corn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicho Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 We don’t have room in the team to give him game time so hope he gets it at Burnley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 It kind of hurts but it's a great deal for everyone involved. Hopefully he'll return. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we might get one none of us have heard of ? But i think it will be a top striker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not ignoring what your saying (of what little you have said apart from "no top striker is playing in conference league") but you seem ro be dismissing us as a average club because of the European competition we are in. Your wrong by the way as shown by the signings of diaby Tielemans and torres Edited August 9, 2023 by Demitri_C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Archer being sold is a surprise. I assume we have someone lined up if Archer goes. Can't rely on Duran he isn't ready and has had no pre season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We arent signing them Who has United with Champions League football signed. A 70 million unproven kid. Chelsea? Nobody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman22 Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Ramsey to Burnley is a good deal all round. 14m to reinvest and a buy back should he really take off there. I hope the lad goes to Burnley and smashes it. The bit about Archer is a bit of a worry but if he goes there must be a back up striker on the horizon!

Maybe not. But if it gives us a better opportunity to achieve our short term goals then we have to do it. I would be concerned if we were selling the likes of Ramsey and Archer and using the money to bring in Maguire and McTominay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spouts a lot of nonsense, but does have North West connections. £14m plus add ons and a buy back is insanely good business by us. Especially when you consider Alex Moreno cost less than that.

Especially when you consider Alex Moreno cost less than that. Indeed, feels like a Monchi special. Doubt we'd have got that under any of our previous regimes. We'd have held on to him, not played him, then sold him for 2m in 2 years time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are good but not top class We obviously won’t be going after your Mbappe’s, your Haaland’s or your Kane’s. But we have the FFP room now to absolutely smash our transfer record for someone on the level of Isak. If we want too. Don’t forget we have Monchi. He may have a gem lined up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
