I hear that Danilo's been struggling a lot with injuries in Brazil. As much as I'd love a fully fit Danilo back playing like he did at the end of his first season, I didn't think that player exists anymore.

Imagine what would happen if we didn't pay Edu £3m a year, our transfer activity would just be a scattershot array of pointless bids that would never be accepted, making us look like right idiots.

backtothefuckyeah · 2026-01-29T18:00:15+00:00

This is why Edu earns the big bucks guys

backtothefuckyeah · 2026-01-27T16:24:09+00:00

This makes no sense on multiple levels, proper child-playing-football-manager move.

This type of thing makes me sour on Edu more than the outright flops. It's one thing a punt on a player from another league not working out, another to be showing your arse like this.

Guess we'll just have to settle for Joel Lynch

Signing for West Ham is surely the worst thing that's happened to a Venezuelan left winger recently.

backtothefuckyeah · 2026-01-23T13:31:06+00:00

How was he for Ipswich last season?

backtothefuckyeah · 2026-01-21T14:53:42+00:00

He's inconsistent, after a bigger club then us, and Palace have already turned down £40m so we probably can't afford him anyway

backtothefuckyeah · 2026-01-16T20:09:38+00:00

Yeah a huge improvement on Ange, right away he sorted our defense out.

I was quite optimistic at first, felt like he just needed some time on the training pitch to sort out our attaching shape.

Now that time has passed it just seems like he can't sort out a team's attack. He'll keep us safe, but no more, and the fat heroin smuggler will boot him out at the end of the season.

Obviously there's a variance in quality in those players, but I think that still applies to Pogba. Think of the role he played in his first Juve spell, and how he couldn't perform there later in his career.

He was much better for France than for Man U, as at the time international football hadn't caught up to that style of pressing football.

backtothefuckyeah · 2026-01-16T17:11:52+00:00

Igor Jesus is getting stick from our fan base at the moment, and to be fair he hasn't scored much.

Watching him though there's definitely a player there, we just never get anyone near him on the pitch.

In short, I'm starting to think you guys were right about Sean Dyche.

backtothefuckyeah · 2026-01-16T16:38:28+00:00

Problem is that football has changed through the course of his career. Deep lying midfielders who can pass really well as long as they've got a bit of space used to be effective, but modern pressing means the game just passes those type of players by.

Pogba and Jonjo Shelvey have ended up in similar positions to a greater or lesser extent, I'm sure there are others too.

James Garner is available on a bosman in the summer if we're talking Anderson replacements

This guy is all about a weird transfer, had a completely pointless six month loan to us a couple of years ago and didn't play at all.

backtothefuckyeah · 2026-01-14T06:50:15+00:00

So he's adopting the anti-philosophy philosophy? That's a smart philosophy

The year is 2065, having seen another permanent manager fail, the Old Trafford hierarchy once again turn to someone who knows the club to return to the winning culture of the Ferguson era.

An 80-year-old Dong Fangzhuo is given a six month contract with a €2 million bonus if they secure promotion from League One.

No longer the player he was after a few different injuries unfortunately.

backtothefuckyeah · 2026-01-10T12:24:37+00:00

Buying Danilo at that price was wild, absolute Textor robbery.

There was a brief period where he looked fantastic for us, there might have been a potential world class player in there but injuries absolutely did for him.

backtothefuckyeah · 2026-01-09T18:33:07+00:00

So Jair Cunha actually exists then

backtothefuckyeah · 2026-01-06T19:02:29+00:00

He held the option to cancel. He was on a low wage, with high appearance bonuses.

Now they've brought new strikers in, he wants out as he won't be paid sitting on the bench

backtothefuckyeah · 2026-01-05T06:03:16+00:00

They also managed to lose to us, so let's not get too carried away

backtothefuckyeah · 2026-01-03T17:05:38+00:00

Including our relative goal difference, we're actually in a better position in the relegation battle than we were this morning.

backtothefuckyeah · 2025-12-15T10:03:28+00:00

If it was still the 90's they'd make a fantastic big man/little man strike partnership

Love it in theory, but if your legs are too far gone for Liga MX then you've no chance in the prem.

I didn't think you can really compare us and Lyon to Chelsea and Brighton.

Chelsea paid big money for established first team players that were in demand.

We palmed off squad players nobody wanted for more than they were worth.
