Country: England
Not only that but this is Ole's team now, he's settled, he's spent and now he's renewed if you don't even challenge it's a worry.
I have some thoughts on United this season though, but I'll keep them to myself. Some on this forum probably won't like it.
Off the top of my head: Botman, Kounde, Pau, Romero, White, Andersen, Tapsoba, Lacroix.
I was sure you would go for Kounde or Pau.
I'm a big fan of Varane btw. I wanted us to sign him too but that's because we already had Gabriel and Saliba.
I think ultimately Madrid will come out better out of this if they replace Varane with Kounde.
He tackled his own player in training and injured him? This guy, he needs to grow up.
Rooney
Not what most would think when you get stuck in a job
Rooney

Is Rooney doing the player-manager thing or is he all management now so he can be fresh for these training matches?
Giggseh should be locked up. Guy is a psycho, might get a machine gun and go on a rampage at OT on a match day I think.Man Utd's legends are all scumbags, who'd have guessed?
Pau and Kounde had a better season than Varane tbf. Arguably for 2 seasons in a row. Btw, if you add Varane's wages, it's a much costly move. That's a 5 year deal on 300k pw. I think you know well enough how these wages can have the opposite. You lot and us have learned this the hard way(Auba, De Gea, Alexis, Özil, etc.)How are those players benefiting us more than Varane for challenging the league? In fact, Varane cost cheaper than Pau Torres, Kounde, Romero, and White, thus we went to player who has better quality and cheaper which probably suits our budget. And one of them is below Laporte in pecking order of Spain national team and Laporte is city 3rd choice CB.
This, you go to Redcafe and you'd be mistaken in thinking you're on a forum who's team is on a run of titles.Their fans celebrate transfers like they're trophies these days, 5 years no trophy 8 years no league title most noise they've made in Europe is losing to Villareal and getting lapped by City but they still think spending money is gonna make them what they once were.

Anyway, as you said. Given how you've invested, you'll have to properly challenge for trophies now or it will be all for nothing.
They're not random though. How does Varane compliment Maguire but Pau and Kounde don't?It’s not about just signing some random centre back just because they are young, it’s about signing who we need. The three Pau, Kounde and Varane are different type of centre back and the one who is the most ideal for us and the one compliment Maguire the most is Varane.

Fair on Pau.Varane has pace to compliment and at the same time the physicality & height to compete in PL. Pau Torres would only be another Lindelof because you can see they play almost the similar way with similar physicality while Kounde’s height is an issue and concern for PL. We had a problem with Lindelof‘s lack of physicality and aerially and this is why Varane is more ideal for us and that’s why he was our first choice above Kounde and Pau.
