Love watching MU fall to pieces.

But they have to be close to rock bottom. They can't suck forever.

Of course they can. There are still the same people in charge of transfers and before they fix that, i don't really see a way up for them.

If he can stay healthy De Bruyne is going to load a lot of bullets in Haaland’s gun.

Big if that he stays healthy. Curious to see how much rest he gets after CL starts. He was basically broken for nearly the entire last season.

another bust…..bummer…like so many before him, couldn’t rise to the occasion.
Chelsea, Arsenal, and Man U stay competing for shittiest transfer window teams. The starting eleven between those three teams of piss poor signings over the last few years would be depressing. Think I might actually do that exercise tomorrow.

I’m sorry, but this Club is run like a ponzi scheme/scam…..
Yeah I haven’t understood a thing they have done this off-season. They already had a good young team ready to take another step up under Xavi. I get the mortgaging some future income to help their awful short term financial picture but that needed to be combined with only minor spending at most to actually right the ship over a few years.

Instead they seem to be trying to spend the vast majority of what they are bringing in and I’m really not sure what additional financial reward they are hoping to get. It just doesn’t make sense in any way IMO.

Not only are their business practices shady but they’re scumbags as well with the way they’re bullying and guilt-tripping their players into taking pay cuts because of their malfeasance. They’ll be very easy to root against for the foreseeable future.

For sure.

Thankfully it's the beginning of the end (or atleast, a long road back) for them.

The way they are handling their players look terrible. Barcelona is a nice city to live and the people love their soccer there but i don't understand why players would want to play for that team.

You don't even need to go back more than a year to see how their new signings get treated. Depay, de Jong and Aubameyang they are already trying to push out of the door.

It is the fourth "financial lever" Barca have pulled this summer. They previously sold 24.5% of Barca Studios to Socios.com and vended 25% of their domestic television rights to Sixth Street for 25 years in two separate deals worth over €500m.

As good as I’ve seen an Arsenal team look in forever in this first half.
They look pretty well put together. I don’t think they have the depth or top end talent to give Liverpool or City a run for their money yet and it’s a long season but they should be in good position to qualify for the CL this year.

And the game before that, Everton had 3 or 4 great chances to equalize or even take the lead and couldn’t get it done. Going to be a long campaign for them I think.
