Nice one Shanghai this Man U team are always thinking they are smart. But for all I know they are penny wise pound foolish. Pogba left on a free and arrived 100million plus that was one of the greatest highlights of their madness, Haaland agreed terms with them only for a small dispute of agency fee to end the deal now Halaand is banging goals for Dortmund and ManU wants to buy him triple the old price and pay agency fee. Odion scored 4goals in 3 starts plus a fantastic golazo still you want to continue using the lad on loan because he is 30. But come to think of it will they do same Aubameyang because he is at same age bracket with Odion.
If ManU can not pay out is full value and have him they should step aside a host of clubs are now watching. As for Odion he has realized his dreams it’s time to be wanted or move away!
U are on point my friend. Don’t mind them
That’s why they are mumu United! British sense…
