SuperSAINT

I saw this game live & thought we'd be brilliant that season... Never quite happened. He was tremendous that game.

Good spot. The big question is, is anyone else anywhere close to leaving?

Top stuff, Ben. Good hear from Noah Liebherr too. Great episode.

You’re spot on about the wages being the main problem. I know there is still time, but the concerning thing is how close we are to genuinely shifting anyone.

Basically, they aren’t that interested... https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/man-utd-mario-lemina-transfer-16565647

In reality, loans with heavily subsidised wages is the main solution.

Poor Mario might have to retweet his video...

We're probably as desperate for Mario to leave as he is to leave us.

The echo & even K,Billy have mentioned about getting our money back. Not sure we’d get £25m. Whether we should or not is another matter, but we need the cash.

Utd to bid for Longstaff?

Any idea if the money would spread to both a replacement AND a centre-back?

Konsa to Villa?

I’ve seen Fitzhugh Fella tweet that Austin fancies staying put & seeing out his contract.

If he’s dedicated enough, he’s handy cover on both sides.

Wouldn't he be a replacement for Herrera?

I don’t think it happened (for whatever reason).

S We will probably get 2 or 3 more sold & loan out the rest.

Wouldn’t the Lemina fee go primarily towards a centre-back? Imagine cash for a Lemina replacement somehow needs to come from a fringe-player sale whip-round.
