De Jong would make us world class. I’ll take it back, he’s worth the silly money they wanted for him.
Barca will take anything for him now they're out of all European competitions. They need the dosh more than ever

Btw I've noticed out throw ins have improved. We used to always concede possession during throw ins earlier

Love how Van Persie, who was with us for only 3 years, is seen around the club quite often whereas he never a goes down to Arsenal who he spent 8 years with.

He was good but he didn't seem worth all the trouble to me.
He was why we were shite 1st half, dictated their tempo beautifully. Him as first choice and Eriksen as back up would fix our problems. Just need a no.2 for Casemiro and a proper no.9 and we’d have a team capable of winning everything.

He's a good player but he's not worth wasting an entire transfer window for. At least we shouldn't waste one more.

Fair point Dozer but sometimes it’s key positions like that which could make the biggest difference. We’ve enough squad dross without adding more to it. But a striker is probably an even bigger priority.

We gave him the title Arsenal couldn't, and he got the love he wanted from the fans

We were brilliant second half.
Erik Ten Hag has taken me from despising this team to loving it again inside 7 months. If he wants to come round to my gaff and have a go on the Mrs he's welcome anytime. She's seen better days but I'd suck his cock too tbf.
Rumour has it that he even makes Barry jealous

Absolutely cracking tie. Both games. Proper feel like I’m watching United again. Not always the best but we’re getting the job done
A brilliant tie between two not brilliant United and Barca sides, but I fucking love us atm. We're a proper side again. Proper connection between team and fans.

This is a must read. It's way worse than originally thought.
A tax inspection revealed Barca paid 7m euros to the vice president of Spain's referee body for over 20 years for unspecified reasons. Barca stopped the payments in 2018 due to being broke. He kicked off and demanded more, and threatened to go public with all of the "irregularities" he saw
