Whatever his part in last year transfer saga, when it comes to commercial deals Woodward is a genius.

Lol.... He's a genius in the same way PSG's directors are geniuses for being sponsored by Qatari government and have the highest commercial revenue out of any club in the world, and Chelsea is genius for selling David Luiz for 50 million pounds to a club renown for abiding by FFP.

As soon as UEFA gets serious about FFP all this crazy commercial revenue shit starts happening. 90 something fucking million a year from shirt deals alone.... Bayern makes in the 20s, Real and Barca in the 30s....If that doesn't smell corruption I don't know what does.

Please stop it man if you don't have clue.

PSG's sponsorship is self sponsored, why will adidas who has no ties whatsoever with Manutd do that?

Comparing ManUtd sponsorship deals to PSG, ManCity is just :facepalm:

Corruption :lol: Yeah nothing to do with Nike, adidas, Warrior fighting for the deal.

dude barca and madrid barely get into the 30 millions...man utd has 90 something fucking million a year. bayern has in the 20s million. I know they're a popular team but that is beyond ridiculous.

this is as clear cut case of money laundering as you can find. you can bet the fact that chevrolet an almost bankrupt american company, the land of blazers, is involved now too, has something to do with it.

Again how is adidas related to ManUtd to do all that you mentioned?

The Nike deal we negotiated 13 years ago was worth around 20 Million, the deal Madrid signed just last year was worth 30 Million.

It doesn't matter what Madrid or Barca makes, that is because of their incompetency. Also we have no idea about what the deal is about, whether ManUtd gets any profit or flat out 75 Million.

Blackpool cancelled their preseason as they have only 8 players in their entire squad.

Do they have 40m to buy Kuzmanovic + Guarin + Alvarez with few others thrown in for free?

Anyway, Chelsea's Salah is having problem in Egypt in regards to the military service.

Salah's registration for abroad education was cancelled by the Minister of Higher Education, possibly forcing him to return to his homeland to serve mandatory military service. He may be prevented from leaving the country if he returns which jeopardizes his Chelsea future.

Ahmed Hassan, the Egyptian national team director commented on the sitaution:

“Salah has expressed his shock about the decision. He told me that he is trying to represent Egypt in the best way possible. Is this the best response from the country?”

Van Gaal is changing lot of things at ManUtd.

He has asked club to rip the training pitch and replace by Desso. I think it's the same as playing pitch at Old Trafford.
He has told that the training grounds are too open and wind is not helping the cause. So ManUtd are working on few things to stop the excessive wind at training grounds. Not sure what they are doing but it is work in progress.
He is not happy with pre season tours, so next time the pre season will be very short or will be in Europe.

He said : “The tour was already arranged [before he became manager] and I shall adapt and United will do everything to apply to my rules but I have said that already.

Well those pre season tours are for the money so obviously Van Gaal can't get rid of them for good. Man Utd has to keep the money making machine going.

Van Gaal said this tour was fixed before he came so he has no issues. All the reports saying that Woodward will let Van Gaal choose it, there might be a tour but a smaller one.

- - - Updated - - -

Van Gaal confirmed that we will play 3-4-3 next season, or you can call it 3-4-1-2 and that squad is unbalanced as we have 4 #10s.

We have only 3 first team CBs in the team and M.Keane as reserves. We need at least 2 CBs if we don't promote Keane and Blackett.

Herrera was godly. It's crazy how many average CMs United bought, but they bought Herrera at the right time. Van Gaal loves players like that.

Tbf we hardly signed any CMs.

Carrick was excellent for most part of his career.
Hargreaves was very good in his only season. Then he was injured.
Anderson was amazing prospect when he was at Porto but Fergie tried to convert him to box to box CM, he has all the attributes but lacks application.
Fellaini had a poor season though.

Fletcher, Cleverley are academy players.

Edit: Yeah Herrera was just superb. He won tackles and played so many through balls. IIRC it's close to 7 or 8 that were executed successfully.
