Casemiro is not a bad buy, there's a reason United are playing better since he came back from injury. Him and Mainoo are by far United's best midfield partnership. Casemiro is the best midfielder at United at the moment. The only issue with Caemiro is his age, but he's playing well at the moment.

[@richardjones8699]

We've had better results but we're still not convincing in terms of performances. We were very up and down against Wolves and never in control againist West Ham or Villa.

[@joealderson889]

@@richardjones8699 We have not played consistently, but we have played better. There is still improvement to come, but for periods of matches at least, we look better than we have done without Casemiro and more games will bring more consistency. It's the injuries that have plagued us this season that have hindered us the most IMO. Losing Martinez, again, is another huge blow.

the audacity to say Casemiro as a bad buy

[@WOOOPdoctorFROGhere]

it was a bad buy. A bad buy can still be a good player. there's no longevity in signing an old casemiro, it's another one of Uniteds reactionary signings. How can you target de jong and then end up desperately signing an entirely different profile of player two games into the season. It's not a criticism of casemiro, it's a criticism of Uniteds brainless recruitment. It's not that difficult to see it's a bad buy, ask yourself would city, Liverpool or arsenal have blown 60m on a player that age? no chance.

[@rohitrajendran94]

​@WOOOPdoctorFROGhere yeah but the way I look at it is the price we paid to win a trophy albeit its the least prestigious one..without casemiro we are not winning that trophy...and there are strong rumors about casemiro joining saudi pro league clubs so the club might make a decent return on his sale.

[@WOOOPdoctorFROGhere]

@@rohitrajendran94 I think sadly your mentality is everything that's wrong with the United fans (and most fans of big clubs). We didn't need "to win a trophy". When a new manager comes in, the absolute priority is to develop a cohesive playing style. This is often achieved AT THE EXPENSE of trophies. Peps first season at city was trophyless and they were further away from winning the title than under pellegrini. This is because the club agreed that in year one, trophies didn't matter. The objective was to build a foundation that they could rely upon for the next decade. This is what happened. Pep built a system that they're now winning the champions league and consecutive Premier league with. This is the blueprint. What isn't a blueprint for success in this short termism that you and a lot of fans insist upon of WIN US A TROPHY, ANY TROPHY IT DOESN'T MATTER WHICH ONE JUST WIN US SOMETHING. We were awful in the carabao Cup run, there was no sign of a great team being built as 7hag didn't bother to actually build any kind of system, he just went for the lowest hanging fruit in winning the carabao cup. The end result of such mindless thinking was to end up where we are now, regularly getting battered by bottom of the table clubs. I just don't get how United fans in particular still haven't realised that establishing a style of play is worth a million tin pot trophies. But nah, they still go on about how Mourinho was brilliant at United because he cheesed a league cup and Europa league with the shittest football imaginable

[@jun3078]

Ashworth did not sign Botman or Isak btw, get it right jimmy.

[@EnglishForFootball]

Newcastle got Botman for 35m because Lille knew Newcastle would not overpay. If United had got involved the price would have become inflated, and United would have paid it. They have done it with multiple players. Dan Ashworth's job will be much tougher as he will have to walk away from a lot of deals to change other club's startegies when dealing with United.

[@PaulBobbly]

This is exactly why these people are being employed. United got this reputation as they were being run by bankers with no experience in sporting, and who legitimately factored instagram followers into their recruitment. You can look at 22/23 summer transfer with panic buying of Antony and Casamiro at the end of the summer as a clear indication of a team with no plan getting their pants pulled down by every team they call. This is obviously the first thing they’re trying to rectify considering the reputation of the recent staff

[@sibonisoduma5878]

Exactly Man UTD often have no choice but to overpay.

[@chrissilvester5663]

Sir Jim Ratcliffe - Co Owner Sir Dave Brailsford - Board Member Jean Claude Blanc - Board Member Omar Berrada - CEO Dan Ashworth - Sporting Director Jason Wilcox - Head of Recruitment Nick Cox - Head of Academy Erik Ten Hag - Manager That is one formidable group of people all working together to bring United back to the very top where we belong. Seeing us actually bringing in proper footballing people running the club it's ckewrly triggering those that don't want us to succeed.

There should be no pressure for anyone at United at this current moment other than the players, current medical staff, board members and directors. They are the only people at the club that haven’t been doing their jobs properly.

[@aidanlowther7018]

Think you’ll find pretty much everyone has not done their jobs properly at the club from players to board members, and the managers regardless have paid the ultimate price

[@KRUtd]

@@aidanlowther7018 FACTS. I was stupid enough to scream Ole out, I was stupid enough to scream Mourinho out at the time and now I look back I see how blinded I was to the real problems at the club. Although Mourinho wasn’t the right fit for United, I still think he was ruined by the team and board, I think if the board had backed him he would have bought quality to the club. I also think if they’d have had a competent board backing Ole in his time he could have produced a much better team. Managers can’t keep paying the price for poor backing and poor players. And people will say “every manger has been backed you’ve spent loads of money” it’s not about spending loads of money to get success, money has to be spent appropriately otherwise you can really screw yourself and Itd is the prime example

[@rufdymond]

There in a nutshell is the problem - it’s never been about money with Utd, it has always been about the running of the club by people that didn’t have a clue what they were doing. We make enough money on our own without owner input to be successful, but if the money is spent by idiots then you end up where we are now.

[@JelloShots-wg6tz]

The problem is not just buying- its selling too and the incredible wages they pay- which makes selling difficult. Antony was an atrocious deal. He will be loaned off till his contract ends and will be worth nothing when he eventually leaves for free. Casemiro - again will leave for free 2 years down the line. He will be useless next season as his legs give way. Man Utd are very poor at selling. Such as Lingard and Pogba. After 2018 World Cup Man Utd could easily have gotten 60-70 million for Pogba. Instead he leaves for free. Financial blackhole.

[@TheRealDxK]

I'm not sure about this appointment, he's safe but very average. Ashworth joined Newcastle AFTER their best signings were already done/in the works: Trippier and Bruno were signed BEFORE Ashworth, Howe had already identified Gordon, Livramento and Barnes, the scouts identified Isak and Botman - hence the links so soon before some of them signed. Lewis Hall is an awful Ashworth signing and he did push for Pope which has been a good signing, but his record is hit and miss. Some of the youngsters he's pushed for have looked completely out of their depth. Ask Brighton fans, it was Weir who led the signings of Cucurella and Caicedo, and he was the one who was there to push for De Zerbi. Typical Ashworth signings there were decent enough: Welbeck being a prime example, but nothing special. I don't think he's worth it. He's steady, not spectacular. A good stepping stone for Man U, but £6m+ for him feels like having their pants pulled down.

[@robzombie5928]

United have probably spent double what they should have on transfer fees and more than double on wages what they should have agreed to pay to players. Its also much harder to recruit for a team that wants to be top of the league than top 6 or top 10 like Ashworths other jobs. Its also much harder to be a player in a top side.

[@thatsthejobbb8587]

Antony was on €20k a week at Ajax. They gave him £200k at united. It's actually criminal!

[@HolloMollo8]

Newcastle will go and get Rangnick and instantly upgrade. Dan Ashworth isn’t even in the top 10 DOF’s. Everyone thinks he signed Bruno, Trippier etc but they all signed before Ashworth went to Newcastle. Ashworth only wants over priced British players and a British manager. Ashworth wasn’t part of Brighton recruiting Caicedo, Mitoma etc, Brighton own their own betting company which they use stats from to recruit young talent. Ashworth takes all the credit for the stuff at Brighton but Brighton went from relegation contenders to Europa as soon as he left.

Simon talking sense, people love to conveniently forget Man Utd get charged insane premiums on players because of who they are, so the numbers on the prices of these players are skewed massively. Antony for instance was probably likely to be 40m but went for 83 because it was last minute and ten hag likely said “we need a winger and I know Antony as a player” and circumstance meant that they had to go for him at a time when Ajax didn’t want to let go of him.

[@BhambathaDlungwane-ze1sx]

I think your absolutely right apart from a lil detail with regards to Anthony. You are right about his price because that's exactly what Ajax told us at thr beginning of the transfer window but we took to long to make the deal happen and Ajax ended getting rid of majority of the important players and Anthony was left and we went in for him at back end of the transfer window by then it became a sellers market and Ajax had all the leverage seeing that they had to keep him because majority of their players are gone so they aren't gonna let go of the prized asset now unless it's for loads of money which they can reinvest into the team immediately. It's our clubs fault for that price tab of 100mil not Ajaxs fault not Anthony's fault its ours

BUT... there's three main points to remember- City wouldn't allow him to leave if we didn't have a "same standard or higher" replacement. City's success didn't happen overnight, so to think it will have an instant impact on United is unwise, it'll be at least 3-4 years hard work undoing all that has been done wrong firstly there before improvement can be made. And the BIGGEST ONE... he was head of ALL put sponsorship deals/shirt sponsers/Etihad sponsors etc... ALL the points fans try to use to undermine City's achievements and call us corrupt and cheats.... well, United taking Omar... you're either wanting to "cheat the system" with Omar lime we are accused of doing, or... is this passiva acceptance that City did no wrong?

While I think Casemiro is a very good player for United, I can definitely understand the view of him being a bad buy. For 70m and the wages he does need, I’d argue, 4 very good years to justify the price. At the moment he’s had most of a year playing well and 6 months with lack of fitness / injury. If United had any strategy they would have been negotiating with Madrid very early on and potentially got him for maybe 40-50 (considering it is well known they were replacing him anyway) and additionally invested in a developmental player to eventually take over

[@Absint80]

FFS C´mon, let speak about 115 charges!

It's not that Utd have paid a certain amount for a player in a position, it's that Utd have consistently paid higher than what they are valued at which makes them look stupid and incompetent. If your paying £80mil for a CB that is world class then that is fine, but when you pay that for an average or below player is where the issue comes from. They over pay and under deliver on every single signing. Other clubs see them coming a mile off, stick a massive price tag on them knowing they have no clue and no plan.

On what metric was Onana rated as one of the best keepers in the world?

[@nsd_respect]

You clearly didn’t watch him in Serie A and Inter’s run to the CL final.

[@Draper99]

@@nsd_respect He played one season in Serie A… That’s not enough for anyone to decide that he’s world class. But his half a season at United is more than enough to demonstrate that he’s not!

[@eXpressYourselfClips]

​​@@Draper99Well if he was undoubtedly the best keeper in Serie A then logic would suggest he's most likely up there with some of the worlds best.

[@David1988Mufc]

I think it's safe to say that he was the best goalkeeper for ball control at his feet and that was the overall reason Man Utd signed him because De Gea lacked in that aspect

[@Draper99]

⁠@@eXpressYourselfClips And who says he was ‘undoubtedly the best keeper in Serie A’?? You?? Do you think you’re qualified to make that assessment? Also, even if, hypothetically, he was considered the best keeper in Serie A for the single season he played there, it doesn’t necessarily follow that he’d be considered world class. Anyone who looks at his game can see that he’s not world class! If you think he’s in the top 10 keepers in the premier league you need your head testing

Because you’re about to overpay them for a hyped up deal negotiator?

[@alien4422]

Nope, if we wanted to keep him our rich owners could have offered him more money. He didn't do a great job with Isak and Tonali. One's injury prone and the others banned.

[@macca9320]

I bet you didnt even know who he was 2 weeks ago. with most expensive squad and they need a british sugar daddy to save them still.. Taking 2 men from clubs you think are small is funny in its own right. How the mighty have fallen when this is how you lots act.

[@astrologiaeaudiobooks7278]

@@alien4422 True, also Trippier, Botman and Bruno were on the radar waaaaay before Ashworth. Edit: even Isak was being monitored before him, I guess. I think they tried to go for his French cheaper version first (Ekitike), but it didn't work out. And Newcastle didn't even get a negotiated price for Isak, they paid the full release clause, so there was no merit there from the DoF.

Pressure is where nobody knows what is going on but people still expect results - thats pressure, when you are not in control. Build a good team of capable people who all know their jobs, and thats a much less stressful way to work.

@@dq4444 Casimiro was an experienced serial winner at Real Madrid, WC player and the main midfielder of Brazilian national team. Were you expecting to get him for 30M? Even mediocre English players like Phillips, Mount and Gallagher are worth between 50-60M. You don't get players of his quality and experience at 25 years old for cheap prices, they simply don't exist. Look at Caicedo, is he doing well?
