    100,000 will still easily fill up. Unlike the Emptihad down the road
  • United is one of the top sport brands in the world. Not only in football, but sport in general. 100k capacity stadium would be great.

    Finally a stadium we deserve, the biggest club in England needs the biggest stadium in England! INEOS!!!!!

    As a United fan, I'm not sure why so many fans think this is a bad idea. Iconic stadiums and teams have built new grounds. Such as Bayer Munich, Barcelona, Arsenal, Juventus, Atletico Madrid and Inter and Ac Milan are looking into this too. Got to get with the times and compete with the infrastructure of other teams in Europe and the Premier league. We've fallen behind off the pitch, as well as on it. This is a fantastic idea
  • Sir Jim really mean well for Manchester United to be at the top again.❤
  • @alambyant
    Once you include all of the fraud, waste and backhanders to the final total the costs will be astronomical. Two things you never hear in Britain: 1) Ahead of schedule. 2) Under budget.
  • @K.MIGHTYD
    Old tafford can be use for games like under 18s etc don't destroy it but new stadium is a good idea
  • Manchester deserves this 👊. A world famous club that needs to keep up with other big clubs around the world, in terms of stadium development. This will be another huge step to put Manchester on the map as a world city in the UK alongside London. I would be delighted to see this go ahead.
  • Forget about rebuilding the old stadium just build a brand new stadium
  • The way things are going,sir Jim could become a united Legend😮
  • If Yoro is injured and out for the start of the season hopefully that will force United to sign another centre back because Lindelof and Maguire are both well below United standards the issue is these players that are not good enough don’t respect the club and won’t leave Ten Hag has to make a statement to these players and say if you stay you can forget about playing a match Maguire Lindelof McTominay Erikson Hannibal Sancho will have to think about this I’m sure some of them will want to play football but one or two will not care because they are about the money they are the ones holding United back at the moment

    They should visit Edmonton Oilers redevelopment, one of the best and most successful team redevelopment in the world.
  • I've said that if they build a new stadium it would be foolish to go lower than 100k seats I actually think they should do 105k just to top the camp nou's capacity of 104k when completed 🤔
  • A Liverpool fan traveling around the with Manchester United.
  • @Bah836
