Woodward [doesn't] strike again!£28m when we're crying out for a DM
Why can't we join the race? Gueye instead of Longstaff, and offer them Darmian at cut-price too.£28m when we're crying out for a DM
Why instead? £28m is a good price for Gueye and if Longstaff is available for similar, get both. Sell whoever is surplus to requirements next season. At these prices we'd pretty much be getting our money back as long as we're not sticking them on ridiculous contracts.Why can't we join the race?

Cliche but if we wanted him he costs £50m.Absolute bargain.
Agreed.Cliche but if we wanted him he costs £50m.
This is bollocks …. and smacks of a "victim"/woe is us/whining mentality.Cliche but if we wanted him he costs £50m.
Herrera wasn't the answer to Uniteds woes. Neither was Fellaini.Gueye and herrera for 28m. Great business puts us to absolute shame
He is 30 in september - if we would sign him he would cost more than £28 million. Would Everton even sell to us ? And why would a player from Senegal choose us over PSG where he will win titles without breaking a sweatWhy can't we join the race? Gueye instead of Longstaff, and offer them Darmian at cut-price too.
Its definately whining, but its not bollocks. PL to PL transfers carry a premium, also everyone knows United are desperate so again extra premiumThis is bollocks …. and smacks of a "victim"/woe is us/whining mentality.
Herrera was demanding double his true salary value. If Scott McT started demanding £300,000 just because some team in Mongolia was offering him that, then you wish him well.Gueye and herrera for 28m. Great business puts us to absolute shame
Let's hope we get longstaff thenHerrera was demanding double his true salary value. If Scott McT started demanding £300,000 just because some team in Mongolia was offering him that, then you wish him well.
Idrissa Gueye is awesome but doesn't fir our age profile for new signings. Getting 10 good years out of Longstaff is better business than 2 good years out of Gueye.
Maybe you miss understood me. I said if we had wanted him not if we bid. If we bid now Everton would obviously accept. But we clearly aren’t in for him which is why the price doesn’t match what I claimed. It’s not hard to understand. It’s been highlighted many a time one example being Longstaff.This is bollocks …. and smacks of a "victim"/woe is us/whining mentality.
He was sold for £28m. If United had offered £29m Everton would of course have taken it. Or do you think they'd give up £1m for no reason?
Not for no reason. Tue reason is they'd strengthen a domestic team and by doing so widening the gulf between them and the top teams. That's probably not something they want to do.This is bollocks …. and smacks of a "victim"/woe is us/whining mentality.

Hardly.Gueye and herrera for 28m. Great business puts us to absolute shame
And gave them huge 4 year contracts. It’s not good business, especially when the players are a long way off being WC.Imagine the scenes here if we signed a player who will be 30 in September.
Have to agree. He is very competent as a contention midfielder, but can't offer much more than that.Idrissa is soon 30 and is in my opinion not a top player. Good sale by Everton.

One of the best ball winners in Europe. Very good at what he does.people losing their shit over Gueye
Only 28m? Other than Kante, this is my second choice to partner Pogba. PSG got a great deal on this one...Tweet

Are you on a wind up with this post?Exactly and Ole should not cover for Ed. He is a fecking united legend. Unless he cares more about his job than united, then fair enough he can kiss his boss's as* as much as he likes.
So as much as i love just having a go at Woodward, I actually do have to note with seriousness here that "player we didn't want " is disingenuous. It has been very apparent over the Woodward tenure that many signings are HIS list and preference rather than the managers. Likewise, many players crossed off the list because HE didn't fancy them.Because he didn't sign a player we didn't want .
I swear our fan base needs to get a grip .
