According to AS(no clue why they would know this), United have offered Schweinsteiger €11m to gently caress off.

I am just going to say that at the season I thought why would we pay good money for some rando who has only played in Egypt but it turns out Rmadan is actually really cool and good and another great buy by Mark 'Sparky' Hughes

It's no secret that Mourinho doesn't like rotating the spine of his team much and Schweinsteiger is injury plagued. He shouldn't have been bought in the first place.

If anything Mourinho's biggest challenge is all the overpriced dead weight United has. Rooney, Schweinsteiger & Depay all have to go but will be really tricky to offload. Zlatan isn't performing up to his potential/expectation but at least he's on a one-year contract. If you can get rid of those 3-4 situations (Rooney to China, Schweinsteiger payed off, Martial no idea), sign a few good defensive players and reorganize around Pogba/Mata as attacking mids and Rashford as striker I think we could have a much more coherent and conistent squad next year. Zlatan will probably be resigned for next season but needs to start being played as a sub or in place of Rashford for defensive "park the bus" grinder games where we can occasionally hope he poaches some weirdo set-piece or long-ball goal to nick a 1-0 late in the game.

My job pays the same, owns owns owns.

Manchester United have the highest wages in world football according to a global survey, with the first-team squad earning £5.77 million a year basic salary on average. Pretty good wages for a mid-table club

lol that Celtic and MLS teams have the same basic wage structure but Celtic is actually decent because MLS is loving retarded and implemented a ton of protectionist measures, keeping themselves out of the global football market and spending half the wages on past it garbagemen

All this does is highlight the fact that United need to clear out the players who are no longer good enough to warrant their high wages (Rooney, Schweinsteiger), never were good enough (Fellaini, Young) and aren't going to be good enough (Memphis). But of course the question that's been asked a thousand times is, clear out where? Who is going to give for instance Rooney a contract he'll accept?

MLS or China. To be honest I wouldn't have any problem with Rooney seeing out his contract and either leaving on a free or negotiating a lesser deal to stay on afterwards. He shouldn't be captain/a nailed on starter anymore but it's hyperbolic to claim he's nothing at all to offer the club anymore. Even while being "poo poo and gash" he got double figures for goals last season and already has a couple of goals and some assists to his credit this season, while playing the worst he's ever played AND while being shuffled around different positions. I doubt Young's contract is that mega and everyone knows Fellaini and Schweinsteiger should never have been bought in the first place, good chance the club is stuck with them as well. I don't get the hand wringing though about the wages, it's not like the club can't afford them. Mourinho picks the players, regardless of the wages they're on, it's up to him to decide if they're good enough or not.

Schweinsteiger could be the Chicago Fire's version of David Ross. I'm going to write to Deadspin about this.
