Manchester United signings weighed against 'financial criteria,' Ten Hag says
I don't like to read stuff like this , we went through this before and started losing players to other clubs because we wouldn't pay the extra 10 -20 million.
Then the following season we splash out more money on lesser players.
I don't know if he wanted Gakpo , but it appears it takes us weeks to make a decision , while other teams come in and do a deal straight away , it makes us look like we are trying to cut corners all the time.
While he would be a great addition ( hope we get him ) , he is not a No. 9 which I still think should be our priority , I also think we still need a top centre back.
