Shaw was probably worth keeping.

by Firenze Thu Oct 18, 2018 7:37 pm

Maybe. Just kinda ridiculous how the entire thing's unfolded. I hope he keeps up his form and doesn't become a lazy POS.

190K? That can't be true Walker and Mendy are like earning 180K combined a week Laughing

Shaw is worth keeping imo really good fullback but not at that price.

It can, just check United's wage bill Laughing

Only Barcelona has a higher wage bill than United and that's probably because of Messi's wage. Sanchez is earning 500,000£ per week Laughing

Moreno won't sign new #lfc contract, and will move on a free in the summer. Arsenal boss Unai Emery is interested, after working with him in Sevilla.

They already have the right back version of Moreno. Imagine them defending with both Bellerin and Moreno. Laughing

Shaw on £195k per week. Laughing

best LB in the league, Young's heir

allow it

£160,000-a-week seems cracy. But they did need him to sign a contract or risk losing him in January.

Signing a replacement (possibly better) would cost £50m plus similar wages.

And Man United would recoup nothing from the sell of Shaw by leaving for free.

it’s not £160k. It’s £195k per week. He gets just £5k per week less than salah

I am not sure about dismantling but Jose can find some tactical answers to Sarri's team. I would not be surprised if Chelsea lose first EPL game of the season today

This trend is really dangerous btw. I know Utd make huge revenues and profits, as far as I remember but if other clubs try to match these wages, surely one or the other day it is going to go wrong. Surely not sustainable on a long term.

That is why I am impressed with Madrid's strategy that they have won so much during last few seasons and still managed it financially so well.

Oh my Willian

by Hapless_Hans Sat Oct 20, 2018 12:41 pm

Terrible from Willian. How Matic escaped a yellow there is pretty outrageous

He got one now, long time to go for him

by Hapless_Hans Sat Oct 20, 2018 12:44 pm

well, now he has it lmao. Will be hard for him to complete the game the way he's going

by Nishankly Sat Oct 20, 2018 12:47 pm

I know Mata's not the fastest on the pitch but he seems much slower now

by Nishankly Sat Oct 20, 2018 12:49 pm

Rashford playing LWWWWB. Mourinho Proud

by Jay29 Sat Oct 20, 2018 12:51 pm

Tbh, I might need to revise my pre-season prediction that Chelsea would take time to adjust under Sarri.

They look like they're going to be just fine.

by RealGunner Sat Oct 20, 2018 12:52 pm

So much superior in quality to United.

by RealGunner Sat Oct 20, 2018 12:53 pm

Pogba

by Hapless_Hans Sat Oct 20, 2018 12:55 pm

Sarri really is an amazing coach. Pep level, while being much more personally likeable.
