The conspiracy theory only really stacks up if those players are being sold for big transfer fees. Broadly we seem to just be shifting them for their value. Only the Saudi league is currently prepared to pay the value AND the wages those players wants. If all those players were happy to take a 50% cut in wages, we'd have many suitors at the same transfer fees. Edited June 25, 20233 yr by bisright1

There is an article in the Newcastle The Mag site about United's partnership and income from the Saudi sports council and Saudi telecom for the last 14 years and asking why that is never an issue that's never mentioned Add to that their fans are eager for Qatar investment with Saudi Arabia showing interest.

If all those players were happy to take a 50% cut in wages, we'd have many suitors at the same transfer fees. When we shifted Ramires, Luiz, Oscar, and Schurrle for the prices that we did, even I had an eyebrow raised and was like "hmm, something dodgy going on here Roman?", but the prices that the Saudi clubs are paying for our players are nothing abnormal whatsoever, as far as transfer fee's go they are going for peanuts, they just have the money to pay their wage demands. Neville is just a bitter hypocritical rat-faced w**ker that never admits he's wrong on anything. Arsenal managed to get Willian to cancel his contract and go back to Brazil not earning anywhere close to what he was earning in London, but nobody thought that was dodgy did they?
June 26, 20233 yr If it weren't for Al-Nassr, Cristiano Ronaldo would still be an FFP millstone around Manchester United's neck. Neville's thinly-veiled xenophobia can f**k off. Firstly, none of the players we sold to Saudi would have even looked askance had Ronaldo not taken the money in the first place. Secondly, even if PIF had some sort of interest, it is far less a conflict than say Man City shifting players between its clubs for token fees. Thirdly, all the fees paid to Chelsea have been below market value. The only real controversy should be for reserved for fans of Saudi clubs. The PIF owns the same 75% stake in all of them. Unlike say the A League or MLS, there appears to be no rhyme or reason by PIF are funding some signings at some clubs and not oothers. If I'm an Al Hilal fan, one of the largest and most historic clubs in Asia, if be pretty pissed that my closest rivals get to sign Kante and Benzema while I get Kalidou Koulibaly lol
June 26, 20233 yr Whenever there is a new kind of fluctuation or a model building that wasn't there before it should be examined. Boehly has certainly brought new ideas to Premier League as he promised. I prefer personally this whole PIF connection is investigated so there can be certainty money is just not circulated to put off FFP regulations. I think it benefits football in general. If we don't work our arses off on the pitch why would we get any slack off it. Finding loopholes is a bit lazy. I know Boehly is a resourceful and clever businessman but you have to own to your mistakes and live by them. I am not suggesting there is anything shady going on but I prefer these are checked as you can easily draw the conclusions Neville has done. Anyway in business it is all about who you know. If you are talented in making connections you are sure to be success. Neville is a MU man. Everything he says take with a pinch of salt. Objectivity from him is just impossible.

June 26, 20233 yr Super impressed with the how the club have managed to sell players. I really didn’t think they would be able to trim the squad so effectively and quickly. Got relatively decent fees for players as well. Still a couple of big ones to go (Lukaku and Pulisic) but I expect deals to be done. The majority of the key deals are done.
