First of all sorry for my english.
It seems like Sancho is going to join United before the Euro Cup started.
To be honest we all will miss him in Dortmund. He‘s an absolute game changer for us. One of the most talented players we had in the last decade. I think he is made for United and will be part of a new era. For us he‘s so much valuable that i don‘t think he will leave for less than 100m € in total. At the latest after reaching the CL next season we don‘t need to make transfers because of our financial situation.

Even if he signed today he's not seeing Ole's face until after Euros, you get that right? And if England were to go all the way he'd have a 1-2 weeker after the Euros I'm guessing.
Yes, of course. So what? That goes for everyone who plays for a national team who's qualified for the tournament.

One of your best ever players in BVB’s history even when he’s leaving at 21? I love the BDL brigade bigging him up everytime :drool:

He wrote "one of the most talented players we had in the last decade". Which isn't the same thing as "one of your best ever players in BVBs history". Are you really so amused by accusing fans of other clubs of "bigging up" their players that you have to invent cases for it? It's a stupid thing to do anyway - it's good to have posters who've followed transfer objects for other clubs share their opinions. If BVB fans are very high on Sancho, that's good to know.

Are you trying to start an argument with everyone? :lol: So oddly hostile.

Mate are you okay? I am a big Sancho fan and I would absolutely love him here at United. I just cannot really stand our own slagging the player down after an England game yesterday without watching his BVB performances when he went there at 18

Oh, sorry! Then I completely misunderstood the point you were making.

I did not say that Sancho is one of our best players in history but i did say that he is one of our most talented players in the last 10 Years.

So Ole won't have something to work with whether it's completed before Euros, during Euros or just after Euros. Your post just didn't make much sense is all.

This is all deja vu to last year. I doubt we get it done tbh.

I'm sure will brief to try make ourselves look good again

For the most part though I just see an incompetent club

Nothing is obviously happening until after the euro's. We just have to hope that we sign him before his summer break after the euro's and don't wait til after his break :lol:

The media are short of stuff to write, again. That means they will spin all transfer stories to the maximum. I won’t believe any signing for United until I see whoever it is paraded in his new shirt at Carrington or Old Trafford. I still believe Haaland will go to City.

If true that's not happening. No way we will spend anywhere close to that amount. Nor should we. Go for Graelish instead

Not sure why the price has suddenly crept up :lol: if there's any truth in that, which I doubt, we'll not sign him and no one else will, I'd expect.

He's coming home though.

Not at all he's in the last year of his contract if they don't sell its a different ball game now.

They had the extra year up their sleeve last time not this time.

Because we're not just running out and dropping 100 million in the immediate post-COVID fiscal environment?
No I never said that's why.

It would be for how we wasted an entire window on him last summer resulting in us failing to add a single player to our starting 11.

Couldn't afford to do that last summer and we can't afford to do it again.

At a certain stage it's incompetence to keep trying to do a signing if we aren't willing to meet the fee and they aren't willing to come down.

I think overall we have plenty of evidence over the years to suggest we are hopeless in the market.

We overpay, we undersell, we don't get the targets our managers wants etc etc etc

Yet to see any real evidence things are getting much better in that department.

That tweet is cleverly worded. Doesn't say that the only 'suitable' offer is the insane 93+23m. Of course if United drop that insane amount it'll go through. I think this gets done at 80m pounds max. But probably after the euros.

They sold Pulisic for 60M € with 0.5 years on his contract. And Sancho made the difference for them between making UCL and UEL this season. That's easily 40M €. They're perfectly fine with keeping him another year and then sell him for 30M less. I doubt he would even be for sale if not for the gentlemen's agreement.

Don’t want him full stop. Sick of overpriced superstars fleecing us. Bring the players through the ranks at least they play for the club and not the cash. Greenwood mejbri elanga garner etc. We ain’t winning the league with Pep at citeh especially with his unlimited budget. Might as well be a club united again.

Sure let's tell our manger he can have his main target 3 seasons after he asked for him.....
I don't think you get it, if Dortmund don't sell for a reasonable price this window the opportunity for good money or near to what they want gets smaller and smaller.

Pointing out the tweet you posted with the silly price is stupid and they can't hold their ground like they could last time there has to be some sort of compromise.....

How is that tweet any slight on Utd?
We wasted one summer in the hope Dortmund would lower their price. It would be incompetence to do the same.

The second we weren't willing to sign Sancho last year we should have moved in and signed a CB or CDM since Ole clearly wanted us to have another run at singing him again.

The issue is now we need all 3 of a CB CDM and RW.

That could have been avoided if we didn't put literally all our eggs in the signing Sancho basket last year.

Considering we where dumb enough to do it last year I don't see why we wouldn't be dumb enough to do it again.

If Dortmund are doing a Peter Kenyon on us we should walk away. Either pick him up for half the price next summer, or a free after that.
