Hope so, but I’ve read it’s unlikely to happen. Would love to see CR7 though it’s only right.
Didn't Maguire start for Leicester before he signed for us?
Think he would have done well in the Bundesliga.
Yes, a bidding war for Dan James
He has my outermost respect. I wish him all the success his hardwork and talent deserves.
Some players are just shameless in that they will prefer to sit and get paid for nothing.

Really wish him the best, seems like a decent lad. Unfortunately wasn't of the required standard here.
Rember his dad died just before the move as well.
I wish him all the best, hopefully we never take advice from Giggs again.
Harsh but fair
Proper professional this guy, it's Leeds but I hope he smashes it.
Amazing news, was never good enough, all the best and all that
Hope AWB is up for it when we play them
Great lad, wish him all the best
That advice landed us a nice profit though. As long as it's not relationship advice.
Win some, lose some, you can't think like that, even Fergie had some mistakes.
Wish him luck and all the best in further career.
Like how people saying Leeds are a good fit for him and he will do well there? How exactly he is utter shite, £30m is an amazing deal for us.
Best of luck to him, he tried hard here and hope he does do well there......but he was an absolutely awful buy, even early on when he was scorign some goals it was blindingly obvious he just wast nowhere near the desired level to succeed here

Few reactions off Leeds supporters from their forums, let's just say they ain't happy 
Cavani 21, CR7
I think a 21 year old Dan James coming into United now, as apposed to 2 seasons ago. Would have been allowed a more slower integration and less reliance, giving him more time to develop naturally. I think the shirt weighs heavy on his shoulders, in comparison to some of his performances for Wales.
I don't think anyone thinks he is good enough as a starter, although until this season I'd have accepted him as a decent squad option. But after the signings this summer and the development of some within. I genuinely don't see him as an option on either wing.
Rashford and Pogba will always be preferred left, Martial is an option there. As is Elanga whom has more potential (would benefit from James' minutes). Greenwood and Sancho offer a different option on the right, with Mata also offers something James cannot and we appear to be keeping Amad now too.
All in all he seems like a nice lad, I wouldn't say he never gave it his all. It is just that his best isn't United standard. He was a Maddison like punt, who is going to net us a profit.
I'm sure he'll do well for Leeds.

Leeds' playing style and Bielsa's coaching will be great for him. Given we've already played them once this season, hope he slots in well and helps take points off our rivals 
In any case, nice hard working lad who gave his best which unfortunately wasn't good enough for Utd but that's hardly his fault. Wish him the best.

40 mil?! feck off
Inject this into my veins...
Fair play to the lad.
Showing ambition to go out and get game time. He will always have my respect.
Unlike Lingard and Jones.

Not sure about the credibility of the tweet but imagine selling Dan James for £40m
40 fecking million.
Well that's simply only true with hindsight. And a lot of his best performances have been for Wales - he was REALLY good at the Euro's. Unusual for us to turn a profit on any player.
I call bullshit
Would be a bigger shock than signing Ronaldo!
no fuking way everton offered 40m for James
Take their money and run!
Time for West Ham to have a 'hold my beer' moment and offer 45m.
Playing vs 2 blocks of 4 for us vs playing for Leeds where they are attacked much more and in turn have plenty of open space to work with are 2 very different propositions. Lingard for example showed how someone whk looks clueless for us can do very well at a mid table club. No guarantees in football but given his playing style, Leeds will suit him a lot more than us.
that can't be real.Tell Leeds we want 45 m
£40m!!?!?!? What is happening
I said we had 0% chance of signing Ronaldo on Thursday. Within 24 hours, the club had announced it. This is surely even less unlikely.
