Transfer Rumour Thread 21/22

[the_arab]

One things for sure imho, this is a job-defining pre-season from Asghar. If we do well (we have done under him so far) then he should be applauded for it and especially by the doubters. If he gets it wrong then he should walk, there is no way he should survive if Courts ends up having to leave or relegation happens.

This to me feels exactly like the McNamara relegation pre-season where we could see going in to it the upcoming season was about to be a disaster..... and it was

The fella was struggling to get a game for us is that who you want us to be signing just to make up the 3 or 4 promised?

That's not what he said or meant. They've signed a player for nothing who will improve them. If they can, why can't we?

[AraBrian]

It's not that I don't approve of their age, more is this really the best we can get? Really? Two guys at the end of their careers who aren't going to get any better or earn us any money in the future? Having the massive recruitment team that we have, who according to the manager, spend 18 months tracking players, these two are the best they can find? Nah, no chance. Sorry.

Really don't know who they have been tracking for 18 months know you don't think its ur job or any one on heres job to name players we should be signing so guessing it is the people who are doing that job and signing the players you are not happy with how they are doing their job but you think they are doing a pish job.I would love us to be signing brilliant players every other day but doubt that will happen know people on here expect great signings even though no one will mention who they want us to sign as it is not their job they just kind of want to say whoever we sign is not a good signing and they want better.

never mind brilliant or great signings, id be happy with a couple of decent ones to improve on some of the absolute p1 sh we have in midfield. The fact we attempt to play Clark there shows how bad our current options are

[AraBrian]

when played correctly he did a good job, most of Shanklands assists in the first few months of championship season came from him. it was only when Neilson started messing about with the 11 and forcing in Pawlett that changed. He then didn't get a game due to the way MM wanted to play, went to Dundee and pretty much single handidly turned around their season with great numbers. Of course id want us to sign players who could actually provide service to Shankland... wouldnt you?

Yip but don't think he would have done it in the premier.Did well for us when he took a game in championship and did well for dundee in championship he might do ok for them next season but I will wait and see but really don't want utd to sign mcmullen even on a free.

[AraBrian]

Youre talking like we're paying peanuts and can't attract any players Brian. We aren't. There's far more teams paying less than us who are signing players. And abused? Really? ��

Yeah there are teams paying less and signing players forfar arbroath montrose brechin just angus teams that are paying less and signing players but that does not mean they are player I want us to sign don't think auld charlie would have signed for any of them but think any of them would have loved him to.

if we dont have the budget to find a single creative player then we shouldnt have been paying money to extend the contracts of the likes of Connolly and pawlett when we have so many other options like them. A creative player was more important than another defender or a backup keeper.

Maybe it’s not so much about budget and more to do with players and agents no fancying United at this time? after all we’ve not been setting the world on fire with scintillating fitba, last season saw one good game ffs, and I can’t remember if there was a decent display the season before? Reckon we need to ride out the storm, hope we have a decent first half of the season and get clear of trouble, see the return of away fans which brings in the ***** funds needed to entice the players everyone wants to see at Tannadice, and then maybe we get back to where we like to think we should be.

The main thing for me though is encouragement, this is what these players, especially the young lads coming through will need from the support. Get behind the club lads, only four days to go so let’s be United 🖤🧡🖤🧡

the point is tho, Dundee significantly improved by signing a player on a free proving that there are players out there that can improve you if you find the right ones for how you want to set up.

Yeah i m not convinced its a budget thing, I think its more that we would prefer not to spend and have decided to gamble with what we currently have which is why i think the decision makers of that should walk along with Courts if it goes tits up

Agree that asghar and the board should take responsability for how their experiment with courts etc goes don't really know if it is all down to the hated asghar or if others have a hand in it but if it is another success like his first two season think he should get a bit of ceredit.
