I keep him & Maguire (providing you can reduce Maguires wages) for as long as possible. They're both decent back up options who dont kick up a fuss about playing time etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Ham came in on deadline day with an offer of £32 million (£25 million in hand and £7 million in add ons). Hard to pass by. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to have 2 players per position & then call up youth as/when needed in the case of a long term injury etc 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also got Chris Rigg and Assan for the future. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kilik Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 Anyone been able to sell Maguire? i gave him the 1 year clause as i wanted to sell him instead of a free but no one seems to want him because of his wages Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomekian Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Re McTominay - I bought him as Arsenal winter season 1 loan with £15m obligation - play him as CM (A) behind Odegaard and ahead of Rice - expected him to be a useful game state sub. He scored 15 in 15 in that role Feb onwards (including the winner in a MOTM Champions League performance) and so far is 9 in 9 in 24/25. Requires the rest of the team to be good enough to live with being average in the ball, but stupidly effective in that role. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone who will actually be rotation too, can be someone young but Hojlund will be my main striker going forward. Martial doesn't cut it at all Zirkzee accepts being a backup but he has been amazing for me while Hojlund was recovering + he is cheap and did a hattrick against City in the Community Shield. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MatthewS17 Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 Just wondering how everyone is managing around United's finances? From the big earners, only Rashford, Bruno, Shaw and Mount remain. I can't sell Rashford, because only Arsenal are willing to bid for him. Maguire and Lindelof are still at the club, but their earnings are 100k now, as I got them on smaller wages. I like keeping them around as neither is bothered about their play time, and it's just good depth. I did bring in Reece James on 200k a week, and Diogo Costa on 150k, but I'm around 5th highest paid wages in the league, which is not bad for a club of this size. Into my third season, comfortably ahead to win the league for the first time, and I've been given a 30m budget to work with and around 150k wages available. Palace are 90% going down in my save, so Olise's 41m release clause is a no-brainer, especially since neither Rashford and Garnacho are creative wingers. On top of that, Garnacho, Hojlund and Mainoo are looking for 250-300k wages with PSG sniffing around as well, so it's not looking rosy. Osimhen is available on a free, but I'm not really keen on losing Hojlund. It's creating quite a dilemma. It feels terribly unrealistic to get rid of every single high earner, and I'm never getting rid of Bruno. I'm still trying to keep up with British quotas, but also to keep an English contingent in the first XI. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My projection is not rapidly dropping, but it is reducing debt and expenses, I will go from a negative 130 million balance to around 48,5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
