Manchester United Thread 25/26 - Teamtalk/Transfers/Gossip Mod Note in OP 26.09.24

Ashworth was mentioned. He said that was an error (along with the ten Hag call) and that “chemistry” was the problem and that it was never going to work out.

Yeah, I think the praise of Amorim was generous, premature (I like Amorim btw).

He was given the opportunity to rise to the challenge and instead went running to Henry Winter. Garnacho was given the same challenge and while it still appears a challenging relationship he is at least trying to make it work. And he is the 20 year old, not Rashford.

The stark thing in the Rathcliffe interview is we would essentially have been broke by November of the club continued the way it was going. There is lots of speculative stuff about if we clear these wages and sell the player we can spend that amount under PSR as if it was PSR that is constraining us. It’s that we were out of cash

Considering Ed Woodward is an accountant, he wasn't very good with numbers was he. Pure incompetence.

Refreshing to have an owner actually communicate something about the club as well and appear to care.

Nope sorry you are wrong on that too.

Rashford was dropped from the United squad on the 15th December for the city game. I don't even believe Ruben went into much detail just said it was little things. Before then Rashford played in every game under Ruben.

On the 17th of December Rashford dod his interview with Winter and didn't play for united after that.

Rashford had his clean slate but you can't work woth a player that publicly says he doesn't want to be there.

In the interviews he was asked about the stadium and said they will be talking about it in detail on Tuesday. Neville said the plans look incredible.

Others have said there's an announcement on it tomorrow too.

This new stadium will only add to our debt problems.

“United are expected to announce their decision on Tuesday. Sources, speaking anonymously in order to protect relationships, have told The Athletic the club has chosen to pursue a new-build, 100,000-seater stadium rather than redevelop the existing Old Trafford.”

Interesting point about selling land because I am wondering how will they fund it.

Not something I’m particularly excited about but that feeling might change when designs come out. I really do love Old Trafford as it is and will be sad to see it go / not be the primary stadium anymore.

In my lifetime it’s never been easier to get a ticket for the big games as it has been this season. 67,000 odd for the cup game the other week. They will be depending on getting the on-field stuff right over the next 5-7 years to drive that demand to fill those 100,000 seats.

What exactly would it achieve if he slagged off the Glazers?

Why are people wanting to see this? To make things worse? What kind of idiot would slag off his business partners who currently have a much bigger share?

Way too much fan discourse around Utd is influenced by that toxic charlatan Goldbridge, who's strategy is to ramp up social media engagement through polarisation and division, and profit handsomely from it.

Anyone that watches Goldbridge should be ignored

You only have to look at the General PL thread on here to see people that don't grasp the damage the Glazers have done to the club.

These PR exercises are usually really well planned out but I don't get the timing of this one. Seems very much like an end of season review type thing that they've decided to do a few days before the biggest game of our season.

It all seemed a bit rushed, and the optics of doing the interview in London isn't exactly great.

Maybe there's some massive news coming regarding the stadium today.

Thought the interview itself was good. At least they seem to be confident they have a plan in place to turn things around.
