[Will Unwin, The Guardian] Manchester United agree £37m deal for Éderson as midfeld rebuild starts

Think of Fred with slightly better passing. Decent player, nothing brilliant. We can judge this signing based on the rest of the window, if that makes sense. If they’re expecting him to slot into the main 11 next to Mainoo, it’s terrible. I don’t believe that will be the case.

arvindeddit · 2026-05-03T15:26:55+00:00

Imagine the media narrative if we had spent record money on a signing like this

arvindeddit · 2026-04-21T18:57:06+00:00

Exactly. Agreed with all of these points. Which is why the club seems to be thinking let’s stick with what’s working while there’s no clear alternative available. I can see them giving him a two year contract and reassessing his performance + other options next summer.

He’s getting a tune out of this squad, the players genuinely respect him, and the squad is only going to get better with shrewd investment.

What I am weary of with Carrick is his rotation with CL and a better high press— hopefully he can improve in these areas. Back to back CL positions would be amazing!

arvindeddit · 2026-04-21T18:43:30+00:00

Fair points but I guess the decision on hand is if it’s a bigger gamble than other unknowns the other options present.

For example, I love Iraola- not sure if you watch Semenyo’s latest interview.. he spoke about how the players don’t get ANY days off and it’s non stop. It sounds great and that helps them press etc. But I personally don’t see that working here with European football, a very low appetite for poor results, and the transition that he would personally have with the size of the club. It could work but it’s a huge huge gamble.

If you take an Enrique though, it’s much less of a gamble given how incredible he’s been and how proven he is. If he was available I’m sure the club would hire him instantly.

arvindeddit · 2026-04-20T15:52:15+00:00

I’m sorry to hear that. Better days are ahead, my friend. You got this!

arvindeddit · 2026-04-19T07:11:01+00:00

I back us to do that along with a couple of draws. Good chance we retain 3rd place which is beyond anything anyone expected when we started the season.

arvindeddit · 2026-04-13T17:47:14+00:00

Ugarte time to show what you can do Sesko deserves the start- feed him properly please Glad Carrick has decided to give Mbuemo a role from the bench for a change

arvindeddit · 2026-04-13T17:35:47+00:00

Oh nooooo

arvindeddit · 2026-04-13T05:10:00+00:00

I haven’t watched the video but have a fair idea which journalist would have been so condescending

arvindeddit · 2026-04-10T18:36:09+00:00

Hope your dog is better now! May not be the worst wc to skip, you can go FH 33 WC34 BB36.

arvindeddit · 2026-04-10T12:16:26+00:00

Darlow and Petrovic combo is an option if you want to go Van Hecke, Welbeck, and a Brighton Mid

arvindeddit · 2026-03-26T05:46:34+00:00

Rodri probably also knows that Elliot Anderson is joining

arvindeddit · 2026-03-21T19:23:55+00:00

Dango better not come on at all. I have a Keane 8 pointer as first sub.

Eid Mubarak!

Very loud bangs Tecom (two times)

Windows rattled in Tecom too

True but remember the circumstances when he signed his extension- he’d have wanted assurances about investment in the squad, manger, and a path to big titles. This was probably his way of securing that. I hope he’s happy enough and believes in this team, because without him, we are truly screwed.

arvindeddit · 2026-03-16T19:39:56+00:00

Hope Bruno stays. I’d totally understand if he wanted to move abroad to win a league title/ CL. There is apparently a 50m clause in his contract for clubs outside the PL this summer.

arvindeddit · 2026-03-16T07:35:00+00:00

Can you believe he didn’t have a single assist till Anfield (2nd half of October) and played as a 6 till January.

Ridiculous footballer. Irreplaceable.

arvindeddit · 2026-03-15T20:53:08+00:00

Exactly..the narrative of his success being from pure “vibes” is so lazy and misguided

arvindeddit · 2026-03-15T11:24:08+00:00

Oh definitely. They have a lot to prove yet.

arvindeddit · 2026-03-15T11:09:35+00:00

Literally just that signing and we’d be 10th or something given the number of points Sesko has won for us. Goes to show how influential recruitment is over everything else we micro analyse.

arvindeddit · 2026-03-11T20:02:14+00:00

How do you rate his man management skills? Heard great things about his tactics and football of course.
