2023/24 Jarrad Branthwaite

[Blueberry Muffin]

Hard not to feel conspiratorial about his exclusion from the England squad with this. Ratcliffe telling Southgate to leave him out so they can bend his ear and say it's cuz he plays for Everton. Then Southgate gets the United gig if ETH falls through. My angry brain is working over time here.

 

[Wat Tyler]

Giving me Rooney and Lukaku feelings tbh, was just as devastated.

Same. Weren’t too arsed with stones rodwell or whatever but this lad is real deal.

Do just think: what is the point?

 

[jazzy]

He won’t be the same player without Tarks next to him.

He’ll be a scape goat next season for uniteds clear lack of defensive organisation.

70 is a little short, 80m is solid enough.

See if we can get some one thrown in on loan..

Where is it being reported that we've agreed a fee of £70 million?

PSR means we have to sell. An absolute disgrace.

Branthwaite is worth more than a few points. Take the deduction and spend. Why are we selling players?

 

[BlueStevie35]

We’ve sold Jarrad Branthwaite to pay for Neal Maupay, Dwight McNeil and Beto

Cheers Kev

And Mosh for f’ing up our finances for 8 years

We sold richarlison and still got done

Ineos won't spend the money needed at first then annoy you guys so much into the last week then pay what you wanted at the beginning leaving you no time to bring in a replacement.

He was out on loan last few seasons and only started the 3rd game this season. You are devastated in losing a great player that hasn't even played a full season for us? We are not there, not even close, if we have someone worth 70M plus, we sell! If I recall right, he almost went out on loan again last season or the Dutch club tried to buy him. Think he wanted to go. Was probably told he would play a big role this season in the 11 and he could go if a big bid came in.

Don't get devastated over these players, we cannot hold the best players, simple as that.

Put 2+2 together there mate, the answer is in your question

And FYI “Kev” is responsible for what’s on the pitch

So when he commits the club to £30m for Beto and Danjuma who can’t get on the pitch, he’s at fault.

so if it’s going to the debt it’s making the team weaker which is another struggle

and yes he’s signed them but dyche would of agreed

the bigger picture is kenwright and moshiri

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

Where is it being reported that we've agreed a fee of £70 million?

It’s not. That’s the price we’re supposedly aiming for. Which means we’ll get less.

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

Eh?! Richarlison’s value didn’t go “down and down” ffs. At what point was he ever worth more than what we got (we’d have gotten more if we hadn’t had to rush into the sale of course)

Well according to yourself he was literally worth more even when we sold him....

 

[Jcr1878]

70 million upfront + add ons & maybe a loan is probably what they’re looking for. I’m gutted he’s leaving but not surprised. We need to invest into a quality player to replace him

 

[matty1878]

lol

just squeezed after JB

 

[Tin-Tin]

Anything over £70m is good business for us at this moment in time.

Most clubs are not in a position to be keeping their best young players. We need a few more Branthwaites until we are in a much better position to keep top talent.

I think we all knew he was going so its not a surprise. I hope he goes on to do well, but not sure if Utd are the right choice for him at the moment.
