Cheater or not, it's much easier to judge someone than to really understand them. A pain shares is a pained halved, and as far as I know putting a story in the spotlight can help others. You can look at it through the idea of 'exploitation' if you really must but I'd rather think of the people it could have help through empathy and shared experiences. For some, even knowing that the millionaire footballer with everything material in this world can suffer through similar emotions is enough. I know what you're saying is coming from a good place and I would never devalue someone's loss. Loss is one thing all humans experience in common and knows no top and bottom. However, using it to build up your PR image is abhorrent and I think that's what Ferdinand was doing. Perhaps I'm wrong and I know im too cynical about most things but I doubt his sincerity.

Teso dos Bichos Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Even though the under 18 side lost to Everton, Mejbri was the MOTM rightfully so. So many youngsters from man utd are sticking out like a sore thumb but Hannibal is above. Future number 7 . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason to believe Wan Bissaka, Maguire and James won't be good acquisitions to be fair, so he may be correct about this summer, but it's indefensible to act as if the massive fees splashed on Pogba, Lukaku, Fred, Sanchez (wages) etc. have been justified.

I agree but for him to say our way of recruitment is the right one is ridiculous. He can't just look at this summer, his whole body of work since being at the club has been shambolic. The bloke is a massive weapon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teso dos Bichos Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 West Ham are in reportedly talks over the signing of 16-year-old striker Mipo Odubeko — who scored 35 goals for Manchester United’s academy last season. That’s according to 90 Min, who ran their story on the Republic of Ireland U-17 international on Saturday, noting how he rejected ah offer from the Red Devils in July and left Old Trafford following the expiration of his contract. United have apparently continued their attempts to convince the player to sign but without success. Perhaps the player and his representatives believe his development will be best served away from Manchester, but that’s hardly accurate when you see the amount of youngsters Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has brought into the first team since becoming manager earlier this year. Being a free agent at 17, any club signing him would need to pay compensation which could be set by a tribunal unless the two clubs can agree on a figure between them. Meanwhile, United have recently been linked with a move for 15-year-old West Ham defender Jamal Baptiste, who has played for the U-23s this season. He’s used to playing well above his age and made 14 appearances for the U-18s last season, as well as representing England at U-16 level. If there’s no way to convince Odubeko to re-sign at United, and he fancies joining the Hammers, perhaps we could wiggle some deal in that could see Baptiste go the other way?
