I don't doubt that the Coronavirus has had an impact but we should one of the clubs best placed to cope with it.

If no one else was doing business we could say fair enough, but these are just excuses.

The other clubs are not just doing business either, they are doing smart business.
There was a thread a day or two back explaining how much more we make from match day revenue than other teams and how we will suffer more than others.

They are trying to include Dalot in the deal tight arses.
Good, we can’t complain about being unable to shift our deadwood, whilst complaining about deals to get rid of it.

We need to shift our mediocre full backs before we add more mediocre full backs to the squad.

You can't give someone something they don't want.

Doesn’t hurt to try though. Telles has got a year left on his contract, Porto are not in the strongest negotiating position. He’s worth feck all in 11 days.

Hows it good? Dalot is at least a 10m asset. If we wanted to sell him, we would sell him

As the other guy said, somebody needs to be willing to give you the £10m. I wouldn’t give you a packet of pork scratchings for the lad.

Our best bet is offloading him on somebody who is desperate to look like they’re getting a good deal

With the pandemic, that just became easier than ever.
As soon as season tickets go on sale for next season there will be thousands giving in and giving them the money and round and round we go. We never get rid unless we cut them off from the money.

Our fanbase don't seem to be able to grasp this. They are the rich ones but fans have the power. Boycotting is the only thing these parasites will take notice of.

What's your background with going to United games out of interest?

This is the type of nothing reports it's come to? :lol:
It seems like a bunch of these recent Tweets with the info attributed to Laurie Whitwell and Andy Mitten are from the most recent Talk of the Reds podcast. I'm not surprised that they're loosening up and talking about more speculative bits of news in there.

"Probably be very, very happy with".

Something in that sentence doesn't add up. If we will be very, very happy with him, why is there a probably? If some would be for it and other wouldn't then nobody is likely to be very, very happy.

Spoof.

That's just a 'cut your nose off, to spite your face' situation. We support Manchester United first and foremost, we buy our season tickets because we love the club, it's history and want to back the players, to be there for the moments of euphoria that happen in the future that we've witnessed in the past.

I can tell you now that people buying season tickets won't matter a jiffy to them, there'll always be someone next in line. The waiting list for season tickets at United when we got ours was 30 years!

Where it'll hit them the most is sponsorships. The Chevrolet deal runs out at the end of the season, if our next best offer is half or less than half of what the Chevrolet deal is, that'll make them think as the value of their asset lessens.

As much as it pains me to say, they're here to stay for the foreseeable future. We're currently in a pandemic which will likely see the end to fans in stadiums this season and they've already said they're not listening to those boycotting and having tirades on social media. What other options do us the fans have?

Wasn't it Mitten that linked Coman to United in the Athletic? No other journalist has really picked up on that story so could potentially be that player. If not bullshit.
