Long time that I see Rashford play. If Arsenal believes in a true boost for the team, he is leaving.

Utd getting rid of rashy feels wrong, but arsenal having him feels even more wrong

It’s time for him to go but if he goes to Arsenal it’s criminal. That’s just snake like vibes. It’s like Tevez moving from United to City.

Thoughts on Jarrad Branthwaite. Manchester United interested in signing him this summer. 21 years old, 6 foot 5. Guys a beast of a defender versatile on both foot. Everton need to sell before the end of June especially £40,000,000 would be a steal for this monster. They’ll probably demand more anything more than £60,000,000 United should be reluctant and refuse to pay otherwise we’ve not improved our policy or structure on transfers.

If SJR digs his heels in and says he wont pay more than 50mil, everton will have to settle for less so they don't break PSR rules. 40-50mil is a bargain for branthwaite - he is worth at least 60-70mil

This guy a baller bro, and SJR for sure will be reluctant in meeting Everton asking price. Especially the new structure we have around our recruitment policy with the new Technical Director of Football and CEO no way they’ll pay £70,000,000 or £80,000,000. Everton will have to settle for that £50,000,000 or £60,000,000. If we get him for £40,000,000 to £50,000,000 that’s an absolute steal!

Don’t cry you didn’t win anything major and you bottled a quadruple so 🤫

That joke was funny for about as long as Man Utd's League/CL challenge lasted.

You know what was even more funnier Amad started the ending of your Quadruple. And then it faltered in the league game against Manchester United, Crystal Palace, Everton and West Ham and in Europe against Atlanta.

Let's just ignore the fact that no club has ever managed to win an English quadruple :rolleyes:

I guess Man Utd fans knew in September that they weren't going to challenge for the title after only winning 6 points from the opening 5 games.

Maybe Ten Hag can spend another 200-300mil on players he knows so they can join his flop machine.

Mate he’s building something okay Mickey Mouse cup then FA Cup, Potentially winning the Mickey Mouse, Fa and Europa League next season. With us returning to 4th spot and ready to challenge for the league the season after. Whilst you drove off Klopp and made him drive off. It’s a whole restart with a different project at Liverpool and remember the pressure and expectation will be on Slot right from the word go. Knowing you’ll be competing for the PL and UCL.

lets face it, they wont be anywhere near challenging for ucl or pl. They will be content with top 4 finish and we will be challenging them for that. the klopp era has ended

Yeah but that’ll be FSG expectations this new guy could be finding himself in trouble otherwise.

Would take a punt on Rashford for £30m but no more. Little to no downside with that price.

Best case, becomes a 20-25 goal a season striker
Worst, sell to like Everton in a few years for £15m

you and I both know that even with his lazy attitude, he would still displace martinelli on the left and be a regular starter

I imagine the expectation for Liverpool next season will be like this season. Aim to finish top 4 and then see what you can do in the cups. Our owners are pretty reasonable and know we're competing against clubs who have more money to waste.

Well 2 seasons ago you finished top 4 and then you finished 8th last season. What's to say you won't finish 10-12th with Ten Hag next season? I can't see Ratcliffe trusting him with another 200mil to waste on players like Antony again..

Martanelli not all that though and we've already moved on from him with Trossard. Ideally we'd have a world class 20+ goal a season LW and that's not Trossard (very reliable but more of an option), Martanelli (more of an impact sub/rotation player) but could be Rashford but hes a bit of a risk. God knows what he'd get up to in London...

We're on a different level to Utd now, we just consider arguably your best player these days. Maybe we will and maybe we wont, guess that's just the way it is for Utd now

your not on a completely different level. last season you finished 5 points ahead of us and this season, with all our injuries, we had one bad season. Even after that, we have won more trophies in the past 2 seasons than arteta has his whole managerial career at arsenal

Dysfunctional mismanaged shambles of a club with a decrepet stadium regularly playing the likes of Johnny Evans, Maguire etc. No sign of any plan, or imporvement. A completely average manager. That about sums it up

You were great and probably will be again but for now, a mess. May as well admit that.

We have only played Maguire and Evans because every other CB has been injured.
We have seen what we can do without an injured squad when we played city last weekend.
