Name ONE player except Ibra who reached his full potential under Raiola? Both Pogba and Verratti are far away from the level they could have been. Rejecting Barca for MUN is as stupid as it gets.
i heard that he started to liking manu posts From a champions league team to a europe cup team. That choice would be hilarious. Atleast it will someone who wont stand in our way. They must have offered him the world like psg did in their prime
This just reads like sour grapes. Utd are just as big as us despite their current floundering.
not really. I got respect for Uniteds history and name but as of 2019, that is all they are currently.. history.
this move would be utterly ridiculous, totally money orientated and from what alot of us were told, De Ligt was supposed to be 'smart' a 'leader of men' yet at the first sign of big money hes willing to drop down from Ajax even.. playing CL semi finals to Europa league, careers are supposed to go forward not backwards, remember Ajax were in the final of the Europa league a few years back.
if he had joined Barca and 'worked hard' 'fought for his place' he'd be on that money by time hes 23.
sour grapes would be saying hes not the best CB talent and a potential generational talent; he is
With you, it seems that if a player doesn't sign for Barça he will irremediably waste his career.
Thankfully, all the players don't think like that or there would be no class player left for the other teams.
And we could say Malcom or Coutinho have wasted their career by signing at Barcelona. It goes both ways.
Anyway, i'm still convinced he will follow de Jong. There was the same tone of defeat in news just before the last offensive of Barcelona where they raised their offer at an higher level than what PSG had offered. I can see the same result in this case.
It's clearly pizza boy behind this... De Ligt is probably keen on joining us more than any other team...

That's not what most of us here are saying. If Real Madrid, or Bayern, or City etc. come knocking it is hard to say no but Manchester United right now? Does anyone believe IF he goes there it is because he is attracted by the fact that he is going to be part of the so-called "rebuild"? We are simply question his desire to chase money and call it out as unwise.
Of course Barca is not the only club and there are plenty of good clubs out there where players can develop an excellent career and there are ample examples of such. We are not that bloated.
At Barça you have Piqué, Lenglet, Umtiti.
Bayern has just bought Lucas for 80 M and have bought Pavard and they have Boateng, Hummels to sell before adding a new CB.
City could do with him because they let Kompany go and Otamendi is maybe on his way out.
However, at United, there is literally no one. He would be instant starter, star, main man. And he would get lot of money. Maybe he thinks he can have the same impact VVD had on Liverpool on the defensive side.
But the whole story is more about Barcelona than United. If Barcelona really wants him, they'll pay up and that is all. The stories about playing with Messi and all only are taken into account when their personal interest is satisfied : money and playing time.
