I read Chelsea wanted him

The players I named have quality but none are leaders and they need that. If you put Roy Keane with Rio and Vidic plus Van Der Sar in United team, the others wouldn't be so bad. Mount is struggling injury wise. Mainoo and Garnacho are young players but has talent. Dalot is good quality full back. Give Ugarte and De Ligt time to settle in but but are good quality players. Nono has a plan and signings fit that tactical plan.

You make so very good valid points. United lacked a proper transfer plan for years. I think the first 12 months of Ratcliffe's reign running Footballing operations of the club hasn't improve much including seeing him cutting staff from departments, cutting Christmas party for staff and bonus from £100 to £40 M&S voucher, then add he has cut funding to the Manchester United Foundation. Then add Ratcliffe and his people meeting different managers like Ten Hag, Frank and Mckenna, then suddenly deciding to stick with Ten Hag then sacked him a few moths afterwards. Lack of coherent plan again. Then add he chased Ashworth for months then sacked him within 6 months. For years, United have lacked a proper leadership at the top to have a proper transfer plan and even this summer, how many of those signings have improved them, then add sacking Ten Hag and appointing a new manager who wants to play a very different formation and tactics to previous squad, meaning you need to revamp the squad and I think there is more pain to come. What a mess. Looking at the squad, Alot of that squad I would want to sell and bring in players that fit my tactical plan. I would only keep Yoro, De Ligt, Dalot, Mazraoui, Ugarte, Mainoo, Fernandes, Mount, Hojlund, Garnacho, Diallo You mentioned Forest, but Nuno has a tactical plan and the players understand what he wants but also any signings fit that tactical approach.

I accept that some fans are like you describe but I know some fans who are passionate and proud of their club, buy club merchandise and try to attend games when they can but cost of ticket, food/drink cost and then travel pushing the overall cost over £100 which is alot considering other non football factors. thanks Den for those genuine words and I appreciated them

Chelsea being linked with Delap now

Very good points. I think Neil Harris would be good here They probably go for Phil Neville or Leighton Baines

Quality first. If it's quality loan players then so be it. I would like 2 permanently and 1 loan signings permanently. We see in 5 weeks time Won't happen? Says who?

We see in 5 weeks time pal what business we have done and who we sign I wanted a striker, left winger and a defender who can play left back and centre beck

Mark Robins is the odds on favourite(1/7) for the Stoke Job That's what I was thinking either of them taking over or maybe look at someone like Michael Skubala at Lincoln

Wouldn't we got the first instalment when Wharton signed, then another 6 months after(July) then another one(Jan2025)?

ok then K-Hod

Firstly, the Wharton money paid the club debt off in the Rovers accounts. ok Its all about quality not how much we spend who we sign whether its permanent or loan. I'm interested who we signed and whether it will kick us on to get that playoff place.

Ennis was sold 11 months ago

in my post to Herbie, I said I was using Cannon name for example purposes. Fair simple.

his comments in LT after the Hull game "We have spoken about it already and everyone connected at the football club would like two or three quality players to help the group,"

Eustace has said 2 or 3 signings he wants

I said for example purpose, maybe try reading what was posted Rev. Might save you posted this. Your point that there is nothing in that type of deal for parent club, that's where you are wrong, if he did come and help us get promote then Leicester have what they want a sale. that's the carrot for them.

I agree with you. For example purpose if we sign Tom Cannon on loan to buy and a winger for £1m then I would find that acceptable cos you sign a quality striker there.

The Wharton money has gone for me. It paid for last season debt to be cover instead of the owners. We spent a small bit(around £2m or less) in the summer. So it will be interesting to see what we spend this window?

What would be acceptable spend in January in you opinion?

Why? Rooney got the job cos the Plymouth's director of football Neil Dewship was his youth coach during his time at Everton

Brighton and Irish striker. Good player with PL experience Striker with championship experience, left winger, and centre back who can play left back. Bindon not close to signing

1000% He did a great job, dignity, honour to the job.

Awful Manchester United tonight. Massive rebuilding job there for Amorim now Lewis Hall, left back for Newcastle, excellent tonight and I hope Tuchel picks him as England left back now. Much deserved. Nuno has got them playing well, Well organised, counter attacking and Wood, Gibbs-White, Anderson, Hudson-Odoi and Elanga all playing very well.
