Manchester United are trying to offload one of their keepers -- Dean Henderson. He's 26 years old.

Apologies. Good GK but there is no way they get that much for him.

The only Hendersons I acknowledge

So the same Henderson I was talking about - plays for Liverpool doesn't he?

Onana is official.

Onana is a good get, although the price tag is a bit high.

That would all be awesome.

Not surprising the kids lost to Wrexham. Looked pretty fluid until the goalie almost killed that guy. Then the fact the Wrexham are grown men and not little ninjas they took over the game.
Tonight against RM should be fun.

Another midfielder hopefully and then sell 10 players. Great offseason

It's the selling 10 players that'll be hard and will cost you. £80m on a relatively unproven player makes it seem like you haven't learned much.

Well if he turns out to be steller, make everyone look like fools. OR he could be a bust. 2 years is all he gets to show it.

Truthfully I don't know much about Hojlund. I see a strong, mobile and positionally clever striker in various clips, but Youtube highlights could make Jonjo Shelvey look like Zidane. It seems like an awful lot of money, but what do I know. They will be hoping he finally fills United's striker void.

This made me laugh. It seems so out of character for Keano, doesn't seem like something he'd do, complete with the dramatic Kingdom Hearts-esque music.

I only saw few full games of him with Denmark and Atalanta but it is certainly all about potential now. Kid has good motor and movement to get open and finish in the box. I think it is smart investment from Man U. Kid is only 20 at the end of the day...

Looks like Fred is going to Fenerbace and we're selling at goalie who never played for the first team too.
Love it. Let's dump McTominay too!

At last you are getting money for deadweight.

Great, another forward having a police investigation. Looks like United needs to do some serious work on their culture and behavioural assessments of players.

United might be the most toxic club in the country. It doesn't seem to matter what players or coaches are there, there's always discord. I guess the common denominator is the Glazers.

Have to be among the worst owners in Europe. They've saddled the club with a huge amount of debt, haven't invested in infrastructure at all, and take substantial sums out of the club. I suppose it's been a shrewd investment for them, and there's a long, long, long way to go before the bottom drops out.

Tbh I expect the same is going on at most clubs. These footballers are spoilt, entitled idiots for the most part. Man u had a good academy and so a lot of young players coming through. Chelsea and Spurs have both had players investigated recently for the same despicable actions. Even in Leicester's past there was Danny Simpson - woman beating and of course our 11 match superstar Stan Collymore.
