We better just buy Amrabat now before his price goes up.
Agreed - I mean clearly the guy is talented, but I just dont see why City are so desperate to sign him after the season he had. Surely there are just as talented players out there for £25 million less.What the hell has Paqueta ever done to be worth such a fee? I mean Pep will somehow make him look like a world beater surely, but he’s been bang average whenever I’ve watched him. Insane money, even for City standards.
Incoming £10 million bid for ScottWow. That's a ridiculous fee. West Ham are rolling in it this summer.
West Ham's first choice midfield last season was:I thought Paqueta was a flop at West Ham.
West Ham paid a lot for him recently and has looked a very good technical player in France and England that is probably a premium now plus Premier League money.What the hell has Paqueta ever done to be worth such a fee?

I had some poster arguing with me when I said we should be expected a minimum of 40 million for McTominay given his age and profile. He was saying 15 million was his levelTweet

I don't understand the market anymore. At this rate McT is worth 60m.
Stop discussing non Utd players /tweets on hereWest Ham paid a lot for him recently and has looked a very good technical player in France and England that is probably a premium now plus Premier League money.
I think most teams try to have their replacement in place before finalising a sale if they can do, so they don't get taken to the cleaners afterwardsSo we won’t let him go yet because we need to have discussions with players and pick our favourite. Who works like this?
I guess the deal is done and sorted, but United are waiting for some answers themself before letting him go. They don't want to be left with three center backs. I guess.So we won’t let him go yet because we need to have discussions with players and pick our favourite. Who works like this?

Tom and Dick. Harry is still 30m.I actually like the way prices are skyrocketing for every Tom, Dick and Harry. It's going to severely punish clubs without good scouting systems in place and clubs who always want the ready made product and don't want to do the development work. It will also help to redistribute wealth and funds to smaller clubs and leagues for better than any official programme will ever be able to do.
What were they doing over the last many months if they still need to consult various stakeholders?Tier 2:

United are consulting various key stakeholders, including members of the Women's team. All of the info will be passed over to Richard Arnold, who'll make the final decision.
I guess they wanted to have all of the facts before consulting with stakeholders but briefing that part of that consultation will be with the women's players, 3 of whom are currently preparing for a World Cup quarter final tomorrow, and putting some responsibility on them (knowing that if they're understandably not happy with him returning that they will get a load of shit from dickheads on social media) isn't really on.What were they doing over the last many months if they still need to consult various stakeholders?
Was clear that they intended to do a statement at some point this weekend about him returning, hoped that it would be drowned out by the rest of the goings on in the Premier League (they even put out a puff piece in The Times) but have got cold feet after today's statement and planned protests by supporters.What were they doing over the last many months if they still need to consult various stakeholders?
There will always be protests. Someone is always unhappy, there is no need to appease everyone. Just make a decision and be done with it.Was clear that they intended to do a statement at some point this weekend about him returning, hoped that it would be drowned out by the rest of the goings on in the Premier League (they even put out a puff piece in The Times) but have got cold feet after today's statement and planned protests by supporters.

Predictable. This was never going to be as easy as the club seemed to think it would be.Tier 2:

They didn't just realize this now...media are trying to stir shit up right before the season starts.Predictable. This was never going to be as easy as the club seemed to think it would be.
This is unfair on everyone. If you are not ready for the shitstorm, let him go.Tier 2:

Source (Tier 3): Nice-Matin
- Ten Hag's call to Todibo convinced the player to pick United over other suitors.
- The deal may happen in the last 2 weeks of the window.
- Price: no less than €40m
- Allows Nice to bring in a new left back & midfielder
This is all just PR. Making the world very aware that we have consulted the women's team. Really they should have been spoken to months ago as part of the investigation.Tier 2:
