Sanchez to United has to be up there too! Ill never forget the ridiculous announcement video of him playing piano :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Also.. When are we calling Grealish a flop? End of next season?

Since his transfer he has played 17 of 25 games. He is missing 32% of games
In that time hes made 2 assists, thats one every 8 or 9 games. Those stats don’t sound world class for world class wages.
Plus 2 goals in that time

Not a decent sample size yet but slippery slope ;)

That is true most years sadly. For all that utd are underperforming they still have a goalkeeper in world class form, incidentally, remember that wobbly spell he had a few years back?, and individuals who can pull a goal out of nowhere. They are not a coherent team but their individuals can still bring the points in.

The difference is shown against the top teams who just rip them apart.
 
After all that's said an done with United.... Just for tonight I want Ronaldo to do something and prove me wrong.

He's triple Captain in my fantasy team and he let me down big time at the weekend..... I'd have thought utd have enough to get past saints and Brighton.

There’s a lot to be said about being a team.
Those two are teams UTD don’t look like a team just individual players struggling at times.

Your last statement says a lot. However, relative to the finances available at each club to build a side, Utd are much worse than fourth. In fact, if you compared league standing to club finances, I wouldn't be surprised if Utd were not even close to getting in the Premier League (top 20 English Clubs). League 1 or 2 perhaps
 
Just one of the reasons Man Utd need a new manager,someone who can make big decisions.
Maguire needs dropping pure and simple.
Pogba left out and back to the pairing of Fred and McTomminey the same under Ole.
Lingard again overlooked,for me baffling.
VDB gone so it’s just the same personal,probably produce the same results.
We need a manager who’s not afraid to drop poorly performing players or players with massive egos.

Quite like Paul Ince’s interpretation of Maguire, and what I’ve thought for a while. Maguire is horrendously exposed because the rest of the defence is rubbish, and his form has dipped because of it.

That aside, Fred is lazy and McT is slow. Lingard has developed chubby chops and needs to put some graft in. Rashford hasn’t got past his injury from last year, and I’m not sure he will.

If Utd want to compete with the big boys, Utd aren’t anymore, especially in Europe they’ve got radical rebuilding to do.

No idea, just looked at the first few links and they all said £32m

Yep it’s always been £32mil - that was his release clause

Played one season - great overhead kick against Utd , spent most of the time on the bench when Klopp arrived - then sold for £27mil rising to £32mil ?

Maguire has been poor for a while now
Turns like the QE2 and slower than you getting your wallet out,and that’s saying something :)
Honestly can’t blame that on everyone else.
Paul ince thought he was the guvernor , no one else did.
