First Lucas and now Thiago. And IIRC, before that, Fabregas too.
United always lose out to foreign competition.
We're shit at negotiations. Always have been. Refuse to pay agents as well. Chelsea and City for eg gave Hazard + Nasri's agents £6M. We'll refuse to entertain a quarter of that. Our agent fees are like the 10th highest in the EPL or something like that.
Its not that, they take there ignorance to a whole new level.Ask most Italian fans and they will recognize that Manchester United is one of the top clubs in the world.
Ask most United fans and you will see that the imbeciles have no idea what there talking about.Chelsea and Arsenal fans for example think there on par with Milan or Juventus.
English fans are simply ********.
Regardless of what you or I think, you'll find there's plenty of people around the world who put United ahead of Milan. That's a fact. People in France effectively consider us the 3rd major club, the Spanish often talk of us as being the next best thing after Barca/Madrid ect. According to a Juventus fan living in Rome, United are ranked as high as anyone, Asia speak for themselves, as do the UK.
I don't agree with it so don't fire abuse my way, but it's the way it is. It's understandable - the EPL is the most watched league in the world and those watching have seen United crowned champions 12 times in about 18 years, and only out of the top 2 twice. Does anyone even watch Serie A anymore?
Milan aren't even seen as being the biggest club in Italy by the Italians themselves either. I don't know of any Arsenal or Chelsea fans who consider themselves bigger than Juventus. You'll find that Juve have always been rated highly in England, mainly because of their success in the 90's which came at a point where Serie A was huge in the UK.
All about opinions.
For the record Barca > Milan, even though Milan have more CL titles. Madrid and Barca are the two biggest clubs in the world.
