'Saudi club Al-Nassr prepared to bid for Manchester United's Aaron Wan-Bissaka'. Get him gone. I'd rather the Saudis came in for Sancho and Antony. They should be the type of players that league goes for and they are harder to get rid of for us It does also come down to the player actually wanting to go there as well, they can't just be forced, and now with some players who've gone there starting to turn their back on it it may not be much of an option for too much longer |

The Saudi league isn't the answer to our prayers. We need to get realistic and get flops off our books at whatever price we can get. And if it takes a pay-off to compensate them for the lower wages they are bound to get elsewhere then take the hit.
But of course there is no point getting rid of dead wood if Erik ends up buying equivalent crap.
If we cannot get a proper footballing director or technical director in place in time to plan sensible summer recruitment I would rather we just focus on player sales and try to turn a profit.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. So letting the Murtough/Fletcher/Erik team spend another £150-£200m this summer is a really bad idea.

Not sure why you even mention it…you know that this is never going to be allowed… My guess is either or both of Dan Ashworth and Paul Mitchell to oversee recruitment… |

If they are willing to pay for a player we need off the books and the player is willing to go to that shit league to make hand over fist in money then so be it. I agree we shouldn't solely rely on them being the ones to get them off the books but shopping these players to them isn't a bad idea either. |

The Saudi stuff is up there with the time Newcastle got taken over and they were going to buy all our dross for massive fees.

10weeks martial is out for!
How has his contract not been ripped up, would just look a PR mess if we cut him loose now, we should have said bye bye on Jan 1st

Wouldn't paying players off the remainder of their contracts impact the FFP? Hence why it makes sense to run down contract etc?

How has his contract not been ripped up, would just look a PR mess if we cut him loose now, we should have said bye bye on Jan 1st He's a complete waste of space, by the time he's back on the training pitch the season will almost be over, he'd then have to get match fit etc, so we might not actually see him play for us again! good! |

It's mental that this guy has been allowed to stick around for the last 3 years, offering nothing |

It's mental that this guy has been allowed to stick around for the last 3 years, offering nothing Surely we'll be in for a loan now this window, only one fit striker and Hugill sent on loan, although he might use Rashford but he's been a complete non entity as well...... mind you with no midweek European games maybe Hojlund can cope with the workload for the rest of the season |

It just doesn't surprise me anymore when he pops up injured, it's expected and that is just sad. |

We need someone short term. Karim the dream or choupo but I can't see how we do it with Martial's £250k a week wages still on the books |

Hojlund can't play week in and week out as much as he runs around trying to get service from these clowns. We need to get a striker in, but doubtful it will happen. Benzema would be a dream though |
