Would be delighted even if the offer was half of that.
Yeah no arguing with that.I meant after Lukaku. We are generally shit at selling. Think the highest fee we received in the last 4 or 5 years is Dan James for 25m.
I find that hard to believe, a good trivia fact / quiz question if true!Article says our record fee for a midfielder. Beating Schneiderlin at £24m.
We're not that lucky...Tweet

Al Nassr is supposedly set to offer £34m and give him a three-year deal.
Snap. Their. Hands. Off.
Sorry but this is nonsense - Everton being case in pointPL clubs don't need to sell their players to stay afloat anymore, the PL is basically a super league. Except us because of how badly the Glazers have mismanaged us.

Did Alex Crook miss the memo? We already know that most of the squad are available for transfer.Tweet

Not if we the same numbers of injuries again next season. We would not be able to have a starting-11.I think I would be happier getting rid of 5 players this summer than signing 5.
Yeahhhhhhhhhhhh!! :dance:
If I never again have to see someone on the reddevils subreddit calling him “iceman” then I’ll be very happy.Tweet

Little unfair, he was very good last year not this year his legs have gone, we have to hope he realises this, Saudis pay £34m and give him £500/600k per week for two three years. Huge benefit if this one goes through the payment will be upfront so that’s a huge benefit to actual Cashflow.Getting £10 for Casemiro let alone millions is way too much!
The club still owe £30mWould be delighted even if the offer was half of that.
He will go to Italy and have his indian summer. Same as Darmian, Smalling, Young, Mikhi, Lukaku. EPL is not end of the football.Getting £10 for Casemiro let alone millions is way too much!
We were quick. We probably could have got a good price for Donny, Lingard, Henderson etc if we’d be ruthlessWe did well to flog him at that.
Was trying to be funny. If we get £34m for him at 32 after a poor year we will be incredibly luckyLittle unfair, he was very good last year not this year his legs have gone, we have to hope he realises this, Saudis pay £34m and give him £500/600k per week for two three years.

If we get €30m for a 30 year old Lindelof with one year left on his contract I will happily eat every hat I can lay my hands on.Correct decision. An okay player but been here years and never showed enough to be considered a starter. Should still get roughly €30million for him.
Lindelof wouldn’t even play at city if all their defenders were injured, Pep would play midfielders in defence before him, he’s nowhere near good enough for top level teams, never has been, just another example of our terrible transfer policy the last decade.Lindelöf is a good defender, but if we want United to come back to old standards, then "good" is not good enough. We need some of the best defenders possible, and Lindelöf is no where near that level.
Agreed. Can't believe certain people were suggesting he should be DM fill-in. He's better on the ball than Smalling was, but only slightly better than Varane, for whom passing is the weakest part of his game. IN addition he gets bullied aerially and even on the ground - his play reading is OK, but not enough that he should been kept on so long, except that we were being run by a football exec operation with genuinely worse judgement/instincts than the average Cafe commenterLindelof wouldn’t even play at city if all their defenders were injured, Pep would play midfielders in defence before him, he’s nowhere near good enough for top level teams, never has been, just another example of our terrible transfer policy the last decade.
He's shot. It's Matic redux. He's not exactly the most consistent playmaker either so it's not like you're using him as DLP if you have ambitions to crack top 4 and beyond again. There are players in the French league available for what Casemiro would hypothetically fetch from Saudi, who would be more effective, just in terms of PL demands, even if they don't have the same level of big club, big-match experience.I'm not as adamant about getting rid of Cas as most, mostly because that means we need to buy 2 new dms in the summer instead of 1. However, if they're really offering £34m, we should take it. That's a really reasonable bid, and we could really benefit financially from getting his £350k wages off the wage bill. That being said, INEOS need to replace him. If they don't invest properly, as I'm quite concerned they might not, we could continue going backwards.
Our reported early targets aren't encouraging me tbh.
He’s worth more than Fabinho as he’s still Brazilian Captain, I think United might ask for £40m, might spin a yarn that he’s a vital part of our rebuild which Ofcourse is not true!Was trying to be funny. If we get £34m for him at 32 after a poor year we will be incredibly lucky
This is Manchester UnitedLindelof has been here since 2017 for feck sake.
It was clear after a year he wasn't very good, mental he's lasted 7 years.
