Cheaper option than Caicedo. Good short term solution, but no resale value. Serious upgrade on McFred.

Way too expensive given wages. Also is € 70 M, a bit less than 60M quid if all add ons hit apparently.

They just don't invest in the team!

As I understand it they haven’t invested a penny of their own money.
What they certainly haven’t implemented is any kind of long term strategy.

It will even hilarious if, with the addition of a single player, it all clicks into place and United go on a winning run.

Didn't that happen with Bruno Fernandes when he signed? Before he turned to shite with all the rest of them.
Terrible deal for Utd. They were royally shafted. 70 million for a 30 year old
Good news for us. Ends interest in Caicedo (presumably we told them "not for sale at any price" if they even called), wastes FFP headroom on a 30 year old and adds another prima donna to a toxic dressing room.
I don't think they'll go down but they could well be fighting with us in mid table this season.

Very good player.
A lot of money for a player of his age though. And I can’t help thinking it’s a bit like when they signed Schweinsteiger, a player who has won the lot but on a downward trajectory and possibly doesn’t have the hunger anymore or the legs for the PL.
And I’m not sure pairing him with Fred like Brazil do is the answer to their problems. They’ve not been great when playing together for them. In our South American Copa America dual in midfield, I would back Mac Allister and Caicedo to better them every time.
Really don’t think this is the silver bullet signing that Man Utd think they’re getting.

No it won't. It'll be sad.
Hilarious would be for them to spunk the £60m and him fit nicely into the current ManU team and not change it. Still be shite. Liverpool at OT Monday.
Now that would be hilarious.

Not that I have too much sympathy, but Gary explains it very well here, I get his passion and point, but it’s still funny.

The greater stupidity is the £350k/week wages

Man U are a global brand so this signing will sell shirts and put bums on seats. Thats all the owners really care about

And yet they're still £500m in debt and getting deeper in it each day.
