Man Utd top league of transfer losses with negative spend of more than £1bn in last decade’​


On the 16th will there be a repeat of these entitled bellends protesting against the owners ?

Have to give it to the Glazers, buying Man U has been an amazing investment for them. £700m was it they paid?

Hopefully Anthony will not be in the squad when we play them .
From a moral standpoint you may be right. From a footballing one I'd love him to play. Absolutely pony, complete waste of football boots.

What it say on the tin really. Their owners spend huge amounts of money on their team and their fans do processions around the ground whining about lack of success. The ‘protests’ cease when they win.
Man U, West Ham, Chelsea, Everton, Newcastle (pre oil money), and more - the fans have become so entitled.

They didn't pay a penny themselves - they borrowed against the club to buy it. A club that had no debt they then lumbered the the club with millions of debt for their own means.

I’m mainly here to sneer at their fans rather than defend the Glazers but isn’t that pretty similar to how we buy houses ? If Man U is going to list on the stock exchange then it will be traded like any other similar company. Their fans have plenty of other options to support a club more representative of their area eg FC Utd, Guildford City, Salford City etc etc

Goodness me, Bournemouth nearly £3,000,000.

The nearly £28,000 per person when their ground is full.

Have they actually sold anyone for big bucks in recent times? Most of the top teams lose someone to a Bayern / Real / PSG (and now Saudi) but not them

The Glazer’s takeover of the club was an abomination.

But yes since then, they’ve obviously spent huge amounts of money. Not always very wisely, but I suppose football transfers are hit and miss. They’ve made what appear on their face, decent managerial appointments and signed players who should be quite good.

I loved seeing ETH interview after the Arsenal game. “We deserved the points, it was all the ref … blah blah blah”. Because that’s what we want, denial. We want big team arrogance, we want them to think they only need to turn up to sweep us aside.

Because make no mistake, we owe them. If Veltman wanted to kill Newcastle, what do they want to do to Man U? The Macca late pen game is nowhere near enough. We owe them much much more than that.
