    Sancho to Saudi Arabia is a get out of jail free card for both club and player. United should do a bundle deal with Casemiro and Varane

      How’s a Saudi move a jail-free card for him, besides it just being a massive pay cheque? He was touted as someone who would go on to be one of the best players of his generation. It’d be a massive shame if he just gives up and retires before even turning 25.

      I think its also way too early for Richarlison to consider it too - he’s only 26.

        Such is the problem with golden handcuffs. There are probably a dozen clubs where Sancho would be a good fit and see him recapture his Dortmund form, none of them can afford the financial package it would take to find out.

          the problem for any of those clubs is that he’s only recapturing his form if they can get him to sort out his attitude and approach to his fitness, that’s a massive risk.

        Assuming it’s a short enough contract he could go out there and use the clean slate to prove commitment and (at least to that leagues level) skill. Still plenty of time for him to return to Europe.

        We should be keeping Sancho until at least we know if Ten Hag is still managing us come August 2024. A January loan is all we should be targeting.

    Hope it’s not a loan. £ in alongside INEOS new boys in the driving seat could mean a winger coming in to replace him if we can sell.

        He’s not played well as a 9, but he’s not been a bust. Has had several assists in his last few games playing from the LW. And has been playing through injury recently.

      The most toxic too. Day 1: Load as many FPs as they can, buy all top players, just make a toxic mess of the actual game, quit after going 2-3 down.

        He lost his striker position to son. Got pushed out to the left wing and he’s been replaced by Johnson who’s looked more impactful so far this season. With a complete fit squad his best chance will be an impact sub. If he wants to solidify his spot in Brazil his best chance is to leave

          I actually don’t know if I would say Johnson looks more impactful so far this season. Richy has 4 g/a with medium play time, and he does a lot off the ball to hold up players. There’s always 1-2 players standing on top of Richy every game he’s on.

          That being said, he’s far away from being where he needs to be, and Johnson could easily be the better choice.

      Haven’t tried it since release because I’m play the Finnish top flight, but in my beta save the intermediaries couldn’t find me buyers for Martial, Erikson, Hannibal, and a few other players.

      Erikson was pissed because I wasn’t playing him every game (why would I when Mount fit my system better and Bruno has a strop if you don’t play him for every minute he’s available), and Martial got upset that I pulled a Fergie Hairdrier on the team when we lost to Everton. Apparently him, Hannibal, Garnacho and Pellistri all thought I was too harsh.

      The only one who didn’t drop the concern was Martial and his agent nor intermediaries could find a buyer outside of Watford who wanted him on loan for nothing.

      i like fm24 more than 23 and 22. i think they did well with this version. especially with how the saves work now, i think it’s a milestone game.

    Sancho, there’s a possibility. I’d be amazed if Richarilson goes to Saudi Arabia. Especially considering he could be injured then still.

    Look even if we can get a fraction of his price a full sale and getting his wages off would be massive.

      Richy back to you and the Dele fee waived in return for Branthwaite is a deal I’d be very happy with

    If the deal to Saudi falls through. They should just swap players. Maybe a new environment will help.
