  3. Bad decision. Barkley is a solid player for a lower position premier-league team. He’s not good enough to make Man U competitive with Man City.

    Waste of time and money.

  4. Ross Barkley ➡ Man Utd 

    I’ve seen this one before. In FIFA 17. **8 years ago…**

  5. So tell me exactly which United midfielders are clear cut better than Barkley this season?

  6. This is absolutely hilarious, I think the recruitment team at United are just trolling at this point

  8. Casemiro clearly came to man u chasing a fat paycheque. He had won everything that had to be won at club level with RM. He was anyway very close to his RM shelf life when man u desperately lapped him up. He is indeed a professional but what motivation and hunger can such a player have ? Everyday he wakes up and sees multiple Liga and CL trophies in his cabinet. No matter how many seasons he plays for man u or how much they pay him, he will always call himself a madrista. Predictably stupid of man u really to think that he will stem the rot ! Smart bussiness by Casemiro.

  9. Lol really? Whilst Barkley has been great for Luton, is he really the kind of quality needed for United to get better? As someone who isn’t overly keen on United, I say go for it. But if I’m trying to be non-bias, I wouldn’t say this is the sort of player United need.

    Non-bias hat going on…. When I look at United, there’s probably less than 5 players I would keep, and they are young and upcoming players rather than top players at the top of their game. Even their so-called best player, Fernandes is a liability. Just seems to moan and throw his arms around most of the game. The team needs a massive overhaul, which is quite a statement considering they’ve outspent pretty much everyone in world football. Not sure where this overhaul is going to come from though, I read the other day they aren’t far off from breaching FFP rules?

  10. Man Utd and short term paper over the cracks deals – name a better duo

  11. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 most ridiculous headline I’ve ever read
    edit: in the sense of delusional journalism

  12. Seems implausible, but I suppose they’ve gotta get their word counts and stories in.

  13. >Daily Mail

    Like lads we’re already on fire you don’t need to make shit up

  14. Thats just stupid. If they get in a sportsdirector now also, both him and the CEO will not let Jim or others make decisions on who to buy.

  16. Cue Southgate considering recalling him to the England squad.

  18. It must be so annoying to be a rational United fan, with batshit crazy rumours like this circling around daily.

  19. We may as well try and buy Jack Wilshere for one last fucking brilliant decision before the real football people join. Why not!

  22. Why would United replace a DM with Barkley? Awful “journalism”.

  23. Ratcliffe is playing football manager. This isn’t going to end well.

  24. We need clicks so let’s insert “player name” linked to Manchester United.

    Don’t worry by Wednesday a new headline players fed up with Erik 🙂

  25. He would be their best footballing midfielder!! Yea I said it

  27. Now now come on guys…don’t knock till you try it!

  28. Replacing your best DM with an attacking mid… Wonder what can go wrong? Casemiro is so much better than Barkley…

  30. Heard someone on a United podcast predicting *as a joke* that we’d be in for Barkley. These journalists need to try harder.

  31. I saw an article the other day that had Ratcliffe saying he wanted to be the next Ferguson. He does know that he’s the “owner” and not the manager right?

  32. don’t see how him and bruno get into the same midfield, it’s like having a midfield 3 of kdb, bruno and odegaard, you’ve just got 3 profiles that are far too similar.

  36. Aren’t we hiring a DOF and CEO? why the fuck is Jim picking players?
