Crazy how United is gonna have the Triplete UCL winning vertebral column and are gonna play the Conference League.

I think they're looking at it as he could be the difference between them going out in the group stage or making the RO16. the money you make from knockout stages (CL money, merch sales, etc) more than offsets the 20-30m less they'd sell antony for next summer. if he carries them to the knockout stages they'll still get 50-60m for him next summer

Something seems off with this whole thing. It’s emerging extremely quickly from a player who’s never indicated anything but being a loyal club servant, and towards a club that is a complete dumpster fire, can’t offer UCL football, and it’s not even domestically competitive.
United better be ready to pay through the nose.
Also, maybe CR7 comes back the other way as a make-weight?

Pool should look at Asensio for the midfield.

what about aouar for cheap? since FSG can be stingy on spending this might be an affordable option to hold things over for jude next summer. i bet klopp can bring the best out of him again

I’m very Zo.gif on this one. On one hand you don’t rebuild a side by signing Casemiro, you rebuild by signing the “next” Casemiro. He has won everything there is to win, he’s going to be on massive wages and has nothing to prove, these aren’t typically the type of players who are going to get stuck in and be up for it. It would be better to go after young, malleable players with high work rate.
On the other hand, we’re desperate and it’s Casemiro
Upgrade is an understatement.

I have a thing about Ligue 1 players. Not certain if they can take the first year of beatings from the prem. He would be a solid option. I also like Pior Zielenski from Napoli. I think he could make the most impact of all 3.

i think yall would be set for a while if you dropped some bread on milinkovic savic this summer and then jude next year. would solve a lot of MF issues in the short and medium term

Casemiro may have his limitations, but effort isn't something I would worry about, he's puts in a ton of work on and off the pitch.I’m very Zo.gif on this one.

Prem and/or Champions league will decide where Jude goes. I like Savic, but jot certain if FSG want to spend the bread.

30 yr old, plus he cost us $6M. One of our best transfers of all time if you take cost and benefit into account.

To think the decision way back when was Casemiro vs Lucas Silva

Then you guys loaned him to Porto and he balled out and you guys finally realized it.

I did not see the Casemiro thing coming. Why would he want the leave the reigning UCL champs who are returning basically all of their core player....granted older.

my brother asked me the same thing, but getting your wages increased from 10.5m to 21 makes it a lot easier to make the decision. at the end of the day you gotta secure the bag for your family and future generations. he's won enough and can now get paid while going to another big club (albeit in a horrible state right now). if he ends up being the piece that helps turn things around he'll be a legend in manchester while getting a massive payday

€70 million for 30 year old Casemiro and you guys are saying it’s too low?

I think we could have haggled for an extra 10 mill, but we have a good relationship with United and did right by Casemiro

Yea RM have a good relationship stealing United’s money and best players.
They want to make sure it’s long and fruitful for many years to come.
