I'm not arguing there's budget for this move, i'm still shocked we are going for Sesko...but the club has made cash from sales this summer with various sell-on clauses (Elanga, Carreras, Oyedele). There will be further outgoings, obviously, too. Maybe just getting the convo started for next summer?

Yeah I’m under no illusions it’s a great business decision, but it’s a better one than past regimes would have made. Reset and hope the recruitment is better this time around. But back to your point, if the recruitment isn’t better overall then that much on Cunha would be a mistake. Time will tell.

Getting his wages off the books is a win on its own. We’ve been run so poorly for over a decade, these small steps are good signs things are turning around. Im under no illusions we will get huge fees, it’s simply a step in the right direction.

Most seasons I’d agree with that, but we will get decent fees for Antony, Marcus & Malacia etc. and their wages off the books which will make a huge impact.

I agree, this is never going to get fixed in one window but it sounds like Cunha, Delap & budget left over before sales, & we have a LOT of sales to make. Time will tell if Berada/Wilcox have learned from their first summer in charge and can come good. Signings like Ayden Heaven give me some hope 👍

He won’t be the only signing this summer, I’m reserving my judgement because if he’s part of a larger squad reset he could be a massive addition.
Let’s not forget Amorim’s first summer at Sporting they moved on like 25 first team players, it won’t be that many but it gives me hope!

Really enjoyed Part II of this today. It is so rare to read anything even remotely pragmatic regarding rebuilding this squad. You're the first I've seen mention Stiller, I've been banging this drum, he's a perfect fit, but the budget is gonna be tighttttt so it's prob a pipe dream...

There seems to be big questions around his fit in the new system, tactically & his overall coachability. He’s one of the few players we’d get a decent fee for, & 100% profit that could be spent this window. Add a sell on % or buy back clause and it’s probably a win/win scenario for us.

Bummed to read this; I love your work, but definitely understand...when I stepped away from working "in the game," it was difficult at first, but eventually, the mental health reset/work-life balance allowed me to fall in love with ⚽ all over again on my own terms. I hope the same happens for you.

Absolutely, there was a moment when we were already 4-0 up where he was tracking back with so much intent. Love his attitude and commitment to helping the team 👏

Fantastic result, can really see what the manager is trying to implement. Onward to Wednesday vs Arsenal! #MUFC

A little rotation before Wednesday is not a bad thing 👍 wouldn’t be surprised if Zirkzee and Rashford swap roles as well #MUFC

Finally saw Wicked and the hype is real! A beautiful adaptation of the musical we all love, such an homage to the stage version and expands parts of the story in ways that only film can do. Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande are sensational! #Wicked

I remember watching her live for the first time earlier this season in Houston, and it was one of those rare experiences of immediately realizing after a few touches, "Oh damn, this is a special player, she's going to be a star"

This is ultimately why stopped interacting on Twitter, I’m not here to amass a large following. That’s not my goal and honestly sounds anxiety inducing.
I’m here to connect with likeminded folks on a variety of interests. So far, really enjoying it here. 👍

Not embarrassed to say everything started with Beckham. I was obsessed with playing the game and he was my gateway as an American kid to the premier league. Fell in love with Manchester United and never looked back.
