So they are Feyenoord fans?
Couple of them are yes, but also some Ajax and Sparta fans in the family. But believe it or not, the don't believe the hype quote came from an Ajax fan.
So they are Feyenoord fans?
I was thinking more 79.999 myself€80m + £1
Come on man, understand that the way it was phrased it's clear they are Feyenoord(or PSV) fans. Clearly not unbiased.Come on man. Try to be unbiased on this - is he really a 80m player? Rasford at his best for United couple a years ago wasn't even close to that. And Rashford actually had good stats 2 seasons in a row. Double digit goals and assists.
All my Dutch family members (Mom side of the family is Dutch) were already flabbergasted when they read that we were willing to pay 50 million for this bloke, let alone 80 million. 'Heavily overrated'. 'Not nearly as good as anyone says'. 'Don't believe the hype', were the main reactions I got back from them. Sadly, I think we're paying too much, once again, for an Ajax player which are often overhyped and overpriced.
Fine you’ve watched all their games and form your own opinions that he is the most impressive players you’ve seen. Unfortunately there are no objective metric to support your views.Tadic took 7 penalties last season. Missed 3. He took only 5 less shot than Antony. Minus that all penalties and their shots. The goal per shot (conversion rate) is almost the identical.
Tadic minutes per goal is much worse.
In what world higher shot on goal means worse shooter?
Are you even educated on understanding stats?
Educate yourself before you talk to fan of other clubs.
You don't even watch their games.
If we sign him, then Glazers are actually very concerned about Mondays protest.
Brazil FC soon…
Who was the Ajax fan who laughed at me yesterday for saying that he'd kick up a fuss?
EtH wants another midfielder (alongside Casemiro) a RB, a versatile forward (Antony) and a GK.
Something tells me we aren’t done.
Glazers are looking to sell so are making the team better before they go (strangely) and/or are very worried about UCL/EtH resigning (not that I believe he would in a million years) or the protest.
Either way it’s forced their hand to actually spend our fecking money for once & properly spend it in one window instead of this 150M bullshit thst gets you nothing in this day and age
If you compare him to both Raphinha and Richarlison it’s probably overpaying by about 10-20%.. but he is only 22, we’re also in the sh*t and desperateNot only fair its overpaying by at least 30-40%.

It's like United fans describing a Liverpool player.
Is he kicking up a fuss then? All that is known that he isn't on the training today, which is pretty much standard procedure when a transfers could happen.Who was the Ajax fan who laughed at me yesterday for saying that he'd kick up a fuss?

Pretty much an overreaction. It's standard procedure that players don't have to show up for training when a transfer could be done.
All this tells me is that Ajax expects United to come back with a better offer.
im sure our fax machine will break on tuesday morning and they wont be able to get a repair man out till september 2023If we sign him, then Glazers are actually very concerned about Mondays protest.
Sure it's nonsense, your family clearly aren't big football fans(or have a big bias) if that's the response about Antony. Ask @KirkDuyt he hates Antony with a passion(due to being a Feyenoord fan) but still acknowledges that he's goodThis is nonsense. If I get the same answer to the question: is this guy good enough for United, from fans from three different clubs (Ajax, Sparta, Feyenoord), and all of them are not very enthusiastic to say the least, it's quite understandable that I'm not a fan to pay 50 million quid for this bloke, let alone way more than that.
If anyone is showing his or her bias, it is you.
Not sure, but clearly Ajax expects United to return with another bid.So you think that he is close to be transferred?
A year ago he doesn’t worth 80m+ either to be fair.Funny you mention Vinicius because one year ago he was viewed as someone lacking an end product (3 goals 5 Assists in 20/21) and not having what it takes to succeed at Real Madrid.
The Dutch deadline day is a day earlier due to a screw up by the Dutch FA. So Ajax is never ever going to sell Antony on the PL deadline day due to not being able to bring in a replacement.im sure our fax machine will break on tuesday morning and they wont be able to get a repair man out till september 2023

You have not been able to provide metric stats with context. Echoing same stupid argument doesn't make you any smarter.Fine you’ve watched all their games and form your own opinions that he is the most impressive players you’ve seen. Unfortunately there are no objective metric to support your views.
And for the nth time, he is plain average to be considered as 80m+ rated player, no matter how hard you are trying to twisted that, he lags behind other top attacking players in about every important metric out there.
It happened with Martinez and it happens at most clubs when transfer could be made. Would be a shame is the player gets injured and the deal doesn't go through because of thatAnd you think that they told Antony to not train based on that hypothetical?
80m is too good to refuse. Honestly don't know why Ajax isn't accepting it. Kicking up a fuss is a very normal thing. We have seen that with Ronaldo in our case. I think he will join us this window .Is he kicking up a fuss then? All that is known that he isn't on the training today, which is pretty much standard procedure when a transfers could happen.
The kicking up a fuss is speculation
Probably because Ajax wants more and thinks United will come back with an improved offer.80m is too good to refuse. Honestly don't know why Ajax isn't accepting it. Kicking up a fuss is a very normal thing. We have seen that with Ronaldo in our case. I think he will join us this window .

Vastly inflated fee. Do we really want to be Brazil FC when this has to be one of the weakest Brazilian national team ever.
