Mason Mount is looking to leave United . . .AC Milan have an interest (they do like former Chelsea players at that club). Should we put in a sneaky bid for the lad? the lad who's all grown up now and yet it's always Frank Lampards voice i hear saying "Mason Mount". lol.

We got his best years. Injuries and burn out caught up with him. He'll appreciate the more leisurely Serie A.

But he is Pep.

I would be careful with the “get the manager who he wants”. If it goes tits up, manager gets paid to go away, and some unknown players on ridiculous contracts.

I am always wary of managers who want to play a back 3 and require specialist players. Remember that one year when Pep, Klopp and others used the back 3. They all abandoned it the season after.

I'd normally agree but when the alternative is having the five muppets spend another billion on utter dross and market opportunities I'm more than happy to give Alonso control.

Fair point. I do wonder though if our inability to pay big wages, and the state of our finances are forcing him to sanction some of these deals.

No top manager walks into a supposed “big club” with a list of targets including Chavarria, Lacroix, Xhaka and Palestra. The Wharton links have disappeared, and I reckon they spoke with his agents, heard his wage demands and switched to Xhaka.

We need to sell Enzo first.

No matter how much people hate Enzo Fernandez, it is silly to think BlueCo would let him leave for cheap in a market where Elliot Anderson goes for 130M and Mateus Fernandes for 85M.
