I dunno if this makes me (and any other Utd fans) feel any better, but we were never getting either of those two. Rice was a pretty long shot all things considered, and Kim would never have chosen us over first team football at BuLi champs Bayern.

It's a sad state of things, but United have not been serious contenders for ages now. We shouldn't be trying to lure in big names with even bigger wages. Our wage structure is already fucked up beyond repair, and we only seem to be making it worse.

I think if Qatar or sir Jim happened then maybe

Kane waited for MUFC too

Kane would've only gone to people not in direct competition with Spurs i.e City. Levy wouldn't have ever sold Kane to a PL rival. It was more wishful thinking on our end. And looking at how shambolic our team currently is, in retrospect it was a great decision by Kane not to come to OT.

The problem wasn’t money 100-150m

But people questioned his age 29, this a guy who is never injury and doesn’t relay on athleticism

Could play till 38-40

The problem was that United wouldn't get him if Levy could decide it (so this summer) and then they would still've been in a hard competition with Real, Bayern and other clubs (if he would've gone on a free).
