Well we could have signed 20 if we wanted to. Have you ever heard a phrase quality over quantity?
We had a shambolic day - and end to the market. I actually feel physically ill.
We’re going to get shat on from a great height. Strap yourself in.
Yesssssss!
This should hold us in good stead when we announce our financial results.
Its quite tragic, isn't it. One man and familly make lose intrest in something that i loved and cared about so much
Well when you bollocks up the transfer window you need to put a briefing out there to shift attention. I guess Director of Football is overplayed now.
Yup.
I cannot believe that we got rid of Sanchez (who was overpaid and crap) and replaced him with an older player, who is also overpaid.
Surely, Woodward and Judge can't be this bad?

This transfer window has been a shambles as a whole. We may end up with some good players but the planning and carrying out of our business has been embarrassing.
If there’s any truth to this, it’s the cycle beginning again, but with the real problem welding the axe.
Let’s start some sort of a crowdfunding for the man or the woman who’ll have to do jail time for that cnut.
Who did we end up signing? We've been linked to about 50 players suddenly in the last week.
We got VDB and Telles - both hopefully good players though neither first team players right away.
And I think we're getting Cavani and some 18 year old from Atlanta?
Some good depth I guess but I question how much of that will actually start for us

calm down folks. This team will be back to post-lockdown heights once fitness kicks in after the internationals. I'm loving all the kids we're buying and see a clear strategy.
Yeah it should've been done during the period OGS was caretaker, but like a kid who doesn't want to do his homework we gave him the job permanently after like 10 games even though OGS's contract ran until the summer. He'll probably end up getting sacked and it's another 2 years wasted
How do you feck up transfers both in and out of a club?
How is it, with more prep time than ever in the history of football since transfer windows were a thing, have you messed up to this degree?
It really is astonishing? His worst transfer window in the entirety of his time here.
He's supposed to be getting better at this purely via experience, but instead he's getting worse. How is that possible?

Some have asked if he is genuinely this incompetent or if it is by design.
The outs would suggest the former. He's fudged getting deadwood off our books, which is damaging the bottom line; if he'd managed that area splendidly whilst fudging ins, I could buy the evil genius, master saboteur train of thought.
When the' search for a new DOF' news dropping
I suppose 33 is a kid to anyone 60+Not sure how Cavani would feel being called a kid.
Why would anyone believe stories from such sources that have had zero insight all summer. The Express is about as bad as it gets.
Absolute shite window
Because a couple of other outlets are running it now.
I'm fecking fuming. The man's a coward and the safest bet anyone can make now is Ole doesn't see Christmas.
It's a story from the Daily Star.
All such outlets said Sancho was close in August. Not worth the paper they are written on.
feck Woodward.
I... I just dont get it. OK maybe I buy into the argument that Sancho was overpriced for the sake if argument, but how could we not find any suitable second/third decent option for the RW after months and months? Completely inept.
I'm always happy to see new players come in, but whenever a player joins on the final day it just screams Plan C(unless it's someone like Sancho, obiously).
He gets what he deserves now. Thinking he's the big man all relaxed, be a riot when fans get back in. Killing the progress of the club, nobody to blame and nowhere to hide now.
35m net spend this summer. Really delivering for his manager.
Usually we'll make a signing to save his bacon, no such thing this time. The atmosphere whenever crowds finally come back isn't going to be pleasant.
United are paying £575,000 per week to 4 goalkeepers.
Let that sink in for a minute.

Its ridiculous
I want Ed out, but this is too much guys...
Mancs, please beat COVID and raise hell. I will send money for bail.

Never enough.
LVG was 100% right about the clowns running our club.
Shampoo and a discounted snood?
Absolute fecking clown working for blood sucking pieces of shit, Europa League again here we come, it's just a waste of time hoping anything will improve while these cretins are in charge, they couldn't broker a deal for a blow job in a brothel.
LVG also spent a lot of money on tat, he can hardly talk.
I think this is a worse window than Moyes’! At least we had a current champions at the time, this is a new low. No winger, no centre back and our marquee signing is someone who is 33 on a free transfer.
Telles is a good addition but he will not stop the issues we have alone.
Ed needs to go now! We are quite happy to sack managers for poor performance, why not Woodward?

Can't wait for him to leak stories about DOF's.
He's not the only thing wrong, but he seems to be a massive part of the problem. He needs to go, but no chance.

As much as I don't condone that behaviour, I had a giggle at 'Ed SmallWood'
