Big Buckets

@AcademyScoop If he’s the third midfielder, I’m fine with it. If he’s the second midfielder, that’s a piss take

Ready to have my mind changed but this just feels like such a backwards step.

@_Utdbaki @rymd_8 @ManUtd Brother, your list above ain’t exactly realistic

@rymd_8 @ManUtd We have Sesko + he would cost like 80M. Not realistic tbh

Eliot Anderson Lewis Hall Fernandes Baleba Diomande Mateta @ManUtd

@ConnorF1878 Martinez and Shaw ain’t going anywhere pal

26/27 where I’m at atm

@_Utdbaki Jesus, what a disaster that would be

Just put my Baleba and Tyler Adams in the bag son.

@SullyTalkz @UtdDistrict @pepealvarezzz Sounds scarily similar to the De Jong situation …

🚨🇫🇷 If Aurelien Tchouameni asks to leave #RMFC, they would be open to letting him. Up to #MUFC to try convince him to join. However #RMFC want to keep + his current stance is to stay. If he stays, they could look at new deal. @UtdDistrict W/@pepealvarezzz roundtable.io/sports/soccer/…

@Utdtruthful @lauriewhitwell Which qualities are those?

🚨🎖️| @lauriewhitwell: “I don't know, I've never really felt Mason Mount’s been one Manchester United would look at selling in the summer, just because of like, I say the kind of qualities that he has shown in the past”. #MUFC [TOTD]

@analyzingfutbol It would be a major mistake. He’s a decent player, but with his age and injury record, there are much better options available.

I listened to this pod and this quote stood out to me. I’ve followed Adams’ career since before he became a pro in MLS. He’s a player that I think was always ahead of his age and conducts himself really well on and off the pitch. He’s intelligent, breaks up play well, and circulates the ball pretty well (but I wouldn’t say he’s close to some of the other names in this regard.. Can also play at FB. When he was at Leipzig, I even suggested him for MUFC one year as an alternate option for us to sign. But his injuries have persisted, he’s 27, doesn’t have the height I’d want to add into our midfield, etc. I also think that the data I’ve looked at for him, he’s ok but never really been a standout data profile like Lammens was prior to his move. Could he be an underrated option? It’s definitely possible, but I don’t think it’s a move we should be making in this rebuild.

@SamJDean The award you get for that is winning trophies. The footballer of the year isn’t a team award, it’s about who has been the best individual. Bruno has been a better individual player than Rice this season. Screw your head on.

With respect to my colleagues in the football writing industry, I am stunned that Bruno Fernandes has been named FWA Footballer of the Year instead of Declan Rice. Rice has literally won more matches this season (35) than Fernandes has even played (34). telegraph.co.uk/football/2026/…

@KJParr269 @PLUTRON_ManUtd @NathSalt1 @ChrisWheelerDM Didn’t know he only had a year left tbf. If we could get him for £20m, that would be a shrewd bit of business

💰 £150MILLION midfield rebuild 💰 #1 - £80m #2 - £40-50m #3 - £20m United ready to go big to reshape the middle of the park this summer, reports @ChrisWheelerDM #mufc dailymail.com/sport/football…

@PLUTRON_ManUtd @NathSalt1 @ChrisWheelerDM Think Boro will want close to double that

@realbigbuckets @NathSalt1 @ChrisWheelerDM Hackney

@Dzm_0 Replacing the two attackers we bought last summer. Never gonna happen

@UtdMaI Absolute garbage

This team next season?

@UtdXclusive @lauriewhitwell Interesting, but no. If we sign a left back rather than a left winger, we need someone who will hug the touchline.

🚨🗣️ @lauriewhitwell on the possibility of Van de Ven playing at left back for Manchester United: "One of the aspects that United are looking at is left back, a supplement to Luke Shaw and if Patrick Dorgu is used more as a left winger - there’s a few moving parts a little bit. I guess Van de Ven could be used there, I’ve been told just that a left footer would be ideal." [@TOTDevils]

@ronaldobrown_98 Fair concern. But it’s just less of a concern than the 2-3 midfielders and the left back. Seems highly unlikely we do all that and sign a starting-quality winger

Am I being gaslit into thinking it's disingenuous to worry about our two LW options next season when neither is actually a real left winger?

@GBUnitedx @lauriewhitwell Brentford would ask £80m for Thiago after this season. Do you not think when you put these lists together?

🚨@lauriewhitwell #MUFC currently aim to make FOUR major summer signings: - Two midfielders (both in £70M+ region) 🇫🇷Aurelien Tchouameni 🇨🇲Carlos Baleba 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿Alex Scott/🇵🇹Mateus Fernandes IF Ugarte is sold. - An experienced striker 🇧🇷Igor Thiago from Brentford. - A left-back 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿Miles Lewis-Skelly/Lewis Hall #MUFC

@xBriandc7 @UtdSaint1 There’s no chance Everton sell Ndiaye for £40m. Just look at the prices wingers went for last summer

@UtdSaint1 Diomande 100m, Barcola 70m, Ndiaye 40m.

Man Unites should be going in for LW this summer regardless of what profile Dorgu is given. Cunha has been good there this season, but he isn't a LW. We need more of a "natural" LW. Look at the LW market. Our best options right now are: • Diomande • Barcola • Ndiaye So, who does United Go for? 🤔

@UtdSaint1 It would be great, but I really don’t see Ineos buying any of these. They’ll all cost upwards of £50m. Don’t think they’ll splash that kind of cash on LW given the other priority positions

@ahtalksfutbol Decent squad, but a ways off a title

@ahtalksfutbol Left back is far more important than left wing

Barcola/Leao Tchouameni Mateus F Baleba (3rd midfielder) Danny Welbeck that’s a very good window 👍🏽
