Typically a sell on fee is a trade off for taking a slightly lower amount in transfer monies. It'd be extremely surprising if we sold him for as much as we did AND retained some rights to future transfer funds. Plus it'd just be bad business on our part, United don't exactly do a lot of up selling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmcla26 Posted 9 August 2023 Share Posted 9 August 2023 Sheffield United to finish bottom, Luton 19th (they'll get some good results at home) and Wolves 18th. Can't see anyone struggling as much as those 3. Think that they'll all be relegated with games to spare. Newcastle will have a slight drop off and be between 6th-9th, with Tottenham, Brighton and Chelsea. Villa and Liverpool to battle for 4th and top 3 Man City, Man Utd and Arsenal, in that order. 10th-17th could be any order. Haaland top goalscorer, obviously.

All parties probably saw this as Maguire’s final/highest destination. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man Utd aren't making any profit so you wouldn't get anything anyway. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Mister Posted 9 August 2023 Share Posted 9 August 2023 Wolves getting rid of Lopetegui was the right decision for them. He may be a good manager but he was kicking off about lack of investment and was unhappy. They will be better off with a manager that is willing to work with what he has got. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bilo Posted 9 August 2023 Share Posted 9 August 2023 O'Neil looks a decent appointment for Wolves. Bournemouth massively improved when he took over. My bottom three is Sheffield United, who look an utter mess, Bournemouth and Forest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunbury Fox Posted 9 August 2023 Share Posted 9 August 2023 Forest and Everton deserve to be relegated but probably won't be because there are so many dross teams this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whetstonefox Posted 9 August 2023 Share Posted 9 August 2023 Forest fans are in for shock this season if they think the media will care about them. Last year was their first for 20 odd years and there was a story to tell with all the new players. I can see Cooper being first manager sacked this season as I reckon their owner will not feel obliged to back him like last season. They will probably stay up as the bottom half looks bang average at best but can’t see them above 15th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_horns Posted 9 August 2023 Share Posted 9 August 2023 Ross Barkley to Luton .. He sort of goes against the general make up of their squad a bit . Older player with a big ego and reputation Probably on good money too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lionator Posted 9 August 2023 Share Posted 9 August 2023 I actually think Wolves will be ok. Sheff Utd are clearly planning for disaster given that they’ve just sold Berge. Luton could build something but will find it difficult obviously. Burnley look strong. I thought Forest might do well but they’ve been horrific in preseason. Everton will struggle again. So there’s 3 of 7/8 who could go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicesterpool Posted 9 August 2023 Share Posted 9 August 2023 (edited) This going to be klopps final year at Liverpool. I just think if Liverpool dont get top four this season then i think Klopp will walk away. He'll certainly walk alone 😆 Edited 9 August 2023 by Leicesterpool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty good. Our last friendly we beat Rennes 3-1, who'd beaten Forest 5-0 the week before. Before that we battered Luton and should have won by a few goals but missed a load of sitters, and got a late draw against Celtic. We won all of our games in our Portugal travels.

UniFox21 Posted 9 August 2023 Share Posted 9 August 2023 Reece James as Chelsea captain. Given I assume they wanted someone regularly on the pitch, they've chosen badly. Minus Thiago Silva that team is lacking serious leaders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In reality they'll get about as much airtime as someone like Brentford or Palace, if even. They'll stay up this next season which is fair enough but if they get relegated in two or three seasons time no one would bat an eyelid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
