Waiting to be sure of his knee - if there's a doubt then no , otherwise still confident it will happenShouldn't it of happened by now?
Yeah, I'm more hoping than confident.Waiting to be sure of his knee - if there's a doubt then no , otherwise still confident it will happen
Sadly we're not in a position to negotiate effectively. It's late in the window, we've fallen from the podium, we blabbed about how much money we have. All of these factors are going to add to prices.12 million is alot, he wants to leave and he is on a one year deal, 30 years old. Why do I always have the feeling every team is charging us a premium tax on whatever we are spending. I'd say 6-8 milion euros is about right for De Jong considering the circumstances. I bet you any other team could get him for a figure in that area, but we are paying 12 mil euros...Now I don't mind the couple of million as I know we got plenty but it is just an assessment, we are systematically overpaying for anyone now.
Well - regardless of what happens now - if we sign di Maria (which looks 99,9% likely) - Woodward certainly has redeemed himselfThis would go from one of our worst to one of our best teams of the PL era very, very quickly if we somehow pulled this off.

Back seat behind driver.Where is he?
No. Ronaldo was £80 million. Di Maria will cost £63.9 million (ignore the Mail saying £70 million).More expensive than Ronaldo then? Great to have him but my god we are bad at negotiating transfers.
Not to mention inflation means Ronaldo is now closer to £100m.No. Ronaldo was £80 million. Di Maria will cost £63.9 million (ignore the Mail saying £70 million).
And the £63m includes around £12m in add ons. So the initial fee is around £50m iircNo. Ronaldo was £80 million. Di Maria will cost £63.9 million (ignore the Mail saying £70 million).
Papers have all been full of shit wrt the fee. Trying to show our desperation etc by quoting the highest fee. By all accounts it was "rising" to £64m+ with add ons etc.£59.7 million? That's the lowest fee mentioned yet.
Another good tweet from you. You may want to post this in the Tweets Only thread for people who don't have much time to sift through pages of drivel.Tweet

It's a lot of money but we have to spend it to get back to where we want to be. I wouldn't mind spending the same on Vidal as long as his knee has recovered.Papers have all been full of shit wrt the fee. Trying to show our desperation etc by quoting the highest fee.

Yep, feck the money. It's less of a dividend to the Glazers so it's all goodIt's a lot of money but we have to spend it to get back to where we want to be. I wouldn't mind spending the same on Vidal as long as his knee has recovered.
