Yup. Having two keepers sharing sort of equal status, is far from ideal. But it may be the lesser of two evils. Don't make a choice you do not need to make. Wait until the evidence is at least 80/20 in one, or another's, favour. Don't gamble at 50/50, even 60/40 etc, when arguments can still...

I agree with this. Whatever the plan was (if there was a plan to get rid of one of them), ditch it. They are both under contract and being paid handsomely. Hold on to both for another year at least, before making a decision we could regret

In this thread, as I understand it, the difference between those leaving and coming in, is that who we get, will be dictated by outgoings, more than normal. Lingard, is one of those, most think should be an outgoing to aid incomings. He is wanted by West Ham, and we want Rice, so serious...

112m net! How?? ............................................De Gea (Henderson) Wan.B (Trippier) - Varane (Lindelöf) - Maguire (Bailly) - Shaw (Telles) .................................Rice (McTom) - Pogba (Fred) Sancho/G'Wood (Diallo) - Bruno (Sancho) - Sancho/Rashford (James)...

I'm not a pessimist in general. I think the Glazers are a big factor in our sometimes lack of faith. We nearly didn't get Bruno, because of the messing about, (he gives the ball away too easily etc.), it was as if we didn't really want or need him. In the case of Kane specifically, getting...

What do we still need? Aka The never ending story. Attacking Midfielder, Defensive Midfielder, Central Defender to partner Harry, and cover for Wan.B. I've gone for: ............................................De Gea (Henderson) Wan.B (Trippier) - Varane (Lindelöf) - Maguire (Bailly) - Shaw...

My crime, to which I plead guilty, was that, I drew a misleading picture. I have amended it to explain my thoughts fully, if all players in their best form. Net: 112m ............................................De Gea (Henderson) Wan.B (Trippier) - Varane (Lindelöf) - Maguire (Bailly) - Shaw...

Quite right, and I am not suggesting that. I am suggesting we offer them 60m, with Lingard going the other way for 22m (a net difference of 38m). If they want 70m for Rice, we want 32m for Lingod, still a net difference of 38m. If they want 80m for Rice, we want 42m for Messi Lingard. In...

Agree. Rice should have nothing to do with Pogba. If we want him, this is the time to get him using Lingard as leverage. Think we should be able to get him for about 60m, with Lingard going other way for around 22m. If they want 70m, we want 32m for Lingard.

What do you think is unrealistic about mine? I think it might be close to what happens.

Out: 82m Romero 0m Grant 0m Jones 0m Dalot 9m Matic 9m VDB 31m (or swap with Varane*) Pereira 7m Mata 0m Lingard 22m (only to West Ham for special fried price, if we are getting Rice for #) Chong 4m * Swap Varane for VDBeek- Longshot! (Zidane/Real Madrid wanted him!) If Varane is serious about...

I think we should be more measured. When we sold the above we had Fergie. This is a whole new ball game...Sorry! Another year makes little difference to what price we might get. Zidane might not do so well second time around, and he is a big part of the draw. Ole might do better than some might...

If this is true I am seriously shocked. Was convinced he was coming here on the premise that if he wasn't, Ed wouldn't have let Herrera go so easily. Some things make no sense to me.
