These transfer rumours are leaving me underwhelmed unless we’re signing a harry kane or Kvarasheila.
I mean we finished third last season, this should be the window where we go out and sign real quality to close the gap and actually push for the title.
I’ve got no issue with Summerville, don’t get me wrong.
But would he even be on the bench for a guardiola team ? He’s a squad option at most, and there’s no way I see him benching cunha either !
what’s shocking me more than anything is the ambition from spurs and brighton right now.
If bouaddi heads to liverpool, it is going to hurt, wharton potentially going there or to spurs will sting too, and tonali to spurs would be absolute madness(even though I don’t really rate him)
Personally i’m praying for a big fernandes bomb and hopefully lewis hall or truffert as well.
Mateus looks a solid pick, but summerville at that price? top players don’t come to old trafford just to sit on the bench behind cunha and mbeumo. nobody does that right now.
That being said; the smart move is building proper rotational depth. that’s how you close the gap, better options across the squad instead of hoping for one or two superstars to fix everything.
Remember the last time we went big on “quality” with ronaldo, sancho and varane? we all saw how that ended up.
I don’t even think the target this year is to go full title charge. It feels more like securing top four again, boosting the finances, and sticking to project 2028.
But last summer was excellent, so i’m choosing to believe the board knows what they’re doing.
