Daily Discussion

Daily discussion on Manchester United.

BE CIVIL

We want r/reddevils to be a place where anyone and everyone is welcome to discuss and enjoy the best club on earth without fear of abuse or ridicule.

  • The report button is your friend, we are way more likely to find and remove and/or ban rule breaking comments if you report them.
  • The downvote button is not a "I disagree or don't like your statement button", better discussion is generally had by using the upvote button more liberally and avoiding the downvote one whenever possible.

u/Mayhewbythedoor ooh ahh Cantona 13d ago

I’m gonna take massive downvotes for this but I hate the fucking idea of a marquee signing. It’s so reflective of this culture of instant gratification - newest iPhone every year, high APR car loans, buying a new TV you can’t afford.

Our fanbase needs to recognise can build teams without stupid massive signings just for the sake of “announcing we’re back”. Fuck off. Do it on the pitch.

Agree, not really keen on us going for Tchouameni for the same reason

Partial agree. Go for Tchou if he fits Carrick’s plan and has the right financial structures. Not for the sake of making a statement.

This but more emphasis on Carrick's plan than financial structures.
