Don't forget there will be a payment too Charlton in a selling on fee bonus for Charlton ...... so we will not get all the funds?

As there would have been had we sold last year Joey. Probs less this year if a percentage

I know that's not a view people tend to agree with but in the "who's to blame for it not working?" I'm going at least 80% club management.

Sorry, but that’s utter nonsense.
Plenty of players got a chance last season who weren’t Silva’s buys.

Haha of course they were.. approximately 6 of them? How many did Silva buy? Of them only Mina was left out a lot. I’m going by memory.. he brought in 2cb, played one at all times, Digne, Bernard, Rich, Gomes. By September going into our worst run they were all starters ... rotating Mina and Zouma depending.

Yes but posters on here should realise it's not a bundle of cash mentioned.....

I don’t think you can just judge him on his time on the pitch. Yes that’s all we see. But there has to be more to it. Which we will never know.

Maybe he’s was a tit.

Maybe just maybe he was never very good.

Maybe Silva's judgement is suspect?

Not having that Walcott's attitude on the training pitch was so fantastic that it earned him game after game when he was utterly toilet in most.

Pogba hasnt exactly worked at United. Not his fault?

he does come across as a decent professional tbh and has offered more than Lookman has when he started/came on.

Pogba has been one of the 5 best midfielders in the Premier League since he got there and the problems at that club start far away from him. And I don't really like him at all. But he gets far too much blame when the club's dysfunction started long before he arrived. The lad is still a good player as he shows when he plays for France.

The players we bought last season are demonstrably better than the players they replaced in their respective positions. That’s why they started, not because of some strange conspiracy :Blink:
