The recent disapproval of Sir Jim Ratcliffe over Manchester United's transfer strategy is something I, a Red Devils fan, love and hate. I don't even know what to say when I think of Casemiro's £350,000-a-week salary. This buddy's performance during the Real Madrid period was really good, but when it came to Manchester United, especially this season, it felt like a big gamble, and the result. Ahem, you've seen it too.
I think Lajue's criticism is quite in placeThe £70 million plus a long-term contract with a high salary to sign a player who is about to enter the late stages of his career is indeed unconvincing. Now I hear that he may be purged to Saudi Arabia, which is really emotional. It's not just a reflection on Casemiro's personal future, it's a deep reflection on United's current transfer strategy.
But the good news is that the arrival of new president, Omar Bellada, gives me a glimmer of hope. Verada's experience at Manchester City is a positive sign for us, especially with the likes of Haaland, who he has been involved in, which is nothing short of exemplary in the transfer market. While his responsibilities at United are different from those at Manchester City, I expect him to make a positive difference in terms of salary structure and signings.
I must say that some of United's actions in the transfer market are really puzzling. For example, the time when he spent 100 million yuan to bring in Antony for Ten Hag, and the time when he claimed to have looked at 82 right-backs and finally chose Wan-Bissaka, these decisions are really head-scratching. Now, with the Premier League's rules of profit and sustainability also restricting us from doing whatever we want, this may be the beginning of a wake-up call.
Bellada's accession and Ratcliffe's reflection was a turning point。What we need is not only short-term improvement, but more importantly a long-term, healthy and sustainable transfer and financial strategy. Manchester City have done a great job in this regard and their success has not been accidental. Their long-term plans for player renewal, such as Pep Guardiola's search for Walker's first-class man two years in advance, are what United are missing at the moment.
Berada has said that once you start paying too much, you lose the rest of the transfer game, and this sentence is, in my opinion, a reminder not only for Manchester United, but for all clubs. Bringing in veterans with high salaries may bring a short-term halo, but in the long run, what we need is a more rational and sustainable development strategy.
As an ordinary fan, I hope that Manchester United will learn their lesson and no longer be a high-profile loser in the transfer market. It is to be hoped that the new policies of Berarda and Ratcliffe will bring real change to the Red Devils and see a stronger and more competitive Manchester United in the coming seasons. After all, for us loyal fans, every improvement at Manchester United is our greatest happiness.
