Raphinha Lewa Dembele is going to be very exciting.

 

Expectations = raised.

 

I have a suspicion that some of the signings (Lewy mostly) were made specifically to drive back up match day attendance revenue.

 

When he’s on, he’s on. I really hope we give him what he’s owed and he stays. Been uncomfortable with a lot of the treatment he’s been getting, whether the rumors spread on social media are true or not.

 

I went back and forth on whether to have a big midfielder and a big striker or go two big midfielders and go budget striker. I ultimately went with the latter and went Salah/Son with Toney/Jesus up front. It paid off this week but I feel like it’ll be hard not to have Haaland in the squad every week.

 

It’s funny you say big midfielders because it’s infuriating that Salah and Son aren’t on the forwards list to me, haha.

 

It’s as dumb as having Perisic as a defender, haha. But you gotta take advantage of it I guess.

 

I think they keep those two as midfielders to appease the masses with high scoring weeks. I think!

 

Does ETH have any ideas that aren’t players from previous jobs lol.

What United really need is an inconsistent prima donna who is already ageing out…

 

Wouldn't be surprised if it says more about our scouting department than it does about EtH.

 

I’m considering switching Son out for KDB in fantasy. City against Bournemouth seems too tasty to pass up.

 

I typed in 'Martinez' on Twitter at full time and there were so many of those.

 

Rabiot to United? Panic, panic, panic.

 

Yeah this is baaaad news. Fuck me, Rabiot and Arnautović

 

I still don’t believe we’re actually interested in Arnautovic lol. Rabiot is whatever I don’t like him at all but we’re desperate for midfielders.

 

This happened one day after we agreed a few with Barcelona then?

 

United are interested in signing exactly the personalities they should be avoiding. Wow.

 

Was it blatant tax evasion? Otherwise that makes absolutely no sense.

 

Villarreal are heroes

 

This is super interesting
