Casemiro going from being over-priced questionable signing to essential part of the team to washed dead money back up has happened at a remarkable pace.
It’s happens sometimes when you spend big on older players. People like to think that top players all stay at peak level deep into their 30s but many do tail off fast.
🎶Ohhh Thiago Silvaaaaaaa🎶
We know we got lucky.
You guys are a money-no-object club, you can absolutely afford to take the gambles and pocket the wins. United are having to budget carefully for FFP and they’ve blown a fortune on transfer fee/wages here!
United fans and crying about money when they're just as bad, name a better combo
united just do shit business
United have even more money than chelsea, just chelsea sometimes actually sell players they've spunked away all their money on so they can spunk away some more money
huh wasn't thiago silva was a free transfer though?
United is also a money-no-object club lol. They are just bad at it
This has to be a copypasta
I assume there is a /s here lol.
We signed Silva on a free...and we also stay within FFP by selling/loaning players.
Wages still count for FFP. He’s not playing for free.
Our wage bill is smaller than City's, Arsenal's, and United's...
What part of that doesn’t mean giving a huge contract to an aging player is a risk? You seem to be arguing that it’s not a risk because he was signed on a free transfer.
We give Silva 1 year deals that he and Chelsea must agree to extend...
Overrated
Yeah but Chelsea got him for free. Even if he had been garbage he would’ve been valuable for culture. Cavani, Thiago Silva, Zlatan, Larsson, etc all good signings. Even someone like Gary Mac for Liverpool.
If United had signed him for free they’d still be going on about how good he is. But on the flip slide Chelsea would never have spent £70m on Casemiro.
