Well Man U won't be coming in with any momentum for Sunday…getting waxed by Palace

We need to jump on them early and they'll quit
I was worried about that match, but now I'm not. But there's still time for me to think about it and get worried again

At this point, I overthink every match and think that we could lose to even a U10 trans-mens' team.

Rumors that Zubimendi only wants to play for Xavi Alonso and will follow him if/when he takes over at Real Madrid.

We may switch over to trying to get Frenkie De Jong. Not sure I really want to do that because he's had a ton of injury issues the last few years

Compilation of various sources RE our MF search for the summer......

- We have backed off Zubimendi. Arteta wants him but the player wants to play for Xabi Alonso. Current rumor is that Real told Xabi that next season will be Ancelotti's last and he is the pick to replace him and that is why he opted to stay another year at Leverkusen. Zubimendi is also aware of this and is holding out for a move to Real next summer.
- Supposedly Frenkie de Jong is now on our radar and Barca is looking to move him on this summer. Saw him described by a guy that is both a Barca & Arsenal fan as "a more press resistant and less physical Declan Rice".
- We have been linked to Onana (Everton). Everton are supposedly asking 70m GBP. Arteta/Edu were interested but not that interested and have since moved on.
- We are being linked to 19yo Benfica DM/CM Joao Neves. He is young, has high potential and is signed through 2028. He will not be cheap.
- Arteta/Edu like Bruno G (Newcastle) as a 6. If they decide to pursue a 6 (with Rice staying at 8) he will be very high on their list. However, they are not interested in paying his 100m GBP release clause.

I was looking into that and this season has been his worst with 12 league matches missed with 2 separate ankle injuries. Last season I think he missed 7. Prior to that it was a max of 4. This season is the exception because his last injury was late in the season but going back to his last year at Ajax, he has 30+ app and 2500+ min in league every season.

Gotcha. I guess I felt like it was much more recently.

I did see something that if Bruno G leaves, it'll either be to play with Pep (City) or abroad

I think Bruno has something against us. We were linked to him leaving Brazil & France and I think he may have took it personal that we backed off both times. In that case I hope he leaves England. I could see him going to PSG (deep pockets + CL), Atletico or maybe Barca if they sell FdJ.

I am shocked that he signed a 1 year deal. Figured at his age, he'd definitely be looking for 2.

That's a good deal for us, provides good coverage and has partnered well with Rice. Got to assume Partey will be out?

Think he will if we can find a buyer

Arteta is rolling Partey out there to start perhaps the most important matches Arteta has ever managed and might ever manage.

I don't think we can safely assume anymore that they're going to sell Partey unless they bring a big signing in.

We know the quality that Partey brings. The problem is we cant keep him healthy. Every "expert" claims we are gonna buy a starting quality DM/CM. Partey's salary is too high to be a backup. Personally I think us playing him now is a combo of knowing at his best he is the best option on the current roster and putting him in the shop window so that someone feels comfortable taking him off our hands.

Edit made for correct day. My angst is still there.

Hoping to wake up to a nice surprise with Fulham and City being the early match tomorrow, then my anxiety will grow exponentially if City drop points

Yep they just have too much depth, they can absorb a De Bruyne / Haaland being out for a few weeks

Tom Rennie can go over the top on the subject. But he's right in that Man Dhabi can buy a $100mm player and sit him on the bench to see if he fits in at some point.

Yep they did this for years and broke the rules others have been punished for to build the depth they have. The league has no spine so they will not be punished.

No Bruno Fernandes for them and a CB pairing of Evans and Casemeiro. We need to finally get over the horse at old trafford today!

I didn't give us much of a chance today against you guys. But no Bruno again. This should be a right shellacking.
