Sure, if you consider Sarr and Brooks to be viable alternatives to Sancho.
The truth is, there is no “alternative” to Jadon Sancho. Legit alternatives are the likes of Mbappe. Anyone else other than Sancho is just another playing filling a hole in the squad.

Bit late getting serious at this stage. Dortmund could struggle to get a replacement at this point even if don't laugh at our offer

This misunderstanding needs to be corrected.

We can sign players from the Championship for 10 days after Euro window closes. So we can push BVB to the last hour and still have good options.
Makes sense why we were linked with Sarr and Brooks before, as club was doing necessary contract work in case we need to press that button.
Are you sure it's not the other way around? i.e. Championship clubs can sign PL players 10 days after?

Heres my theory. I dont think they want a replacement. I think they want to bank the money and use time as an excuse not to get anyone in.

A brief like today seems pointless in negotiations. How does it help?!?!

If we don't get him we look terrible. It sets up unrealistic expectations. I am over whether or not we get Sancho. Briefs like these are what make us look incompetent.

No one, not even Dortmund care about the fake deadline that passed 6 weeks ago.

That doesn’t mean it will go through, but that “deadline” has no bearing on it. If the deadline was end of September, that at least would be credible.

Unless this is successful or one of the most illogical transfer approaches I can remember.

That Norwegian fella is full of shit.
Why would he go about making such quotes? He's going to look extremely stupid and ruin his reputation for no reason if he doesn't have viable information.

Somebody close to Ole might be spilling the news, or Ole himself talking to put pressure on the board.

How’s he going to ruin his reputation? He’ll just delete his Tweets and the same gullible lot will eat up his crap next Summer when we’re chasing Angel Gomes for £70m.

Signed in on reddit for the first time ever, purely to upvote @sammsky1 comment, if we all did the same and upvoted it constantly they'd be fuming!
Holy shit that is petty :lol: To be fair I have no idea what the boys over at reddit are spouting so they may have it coming. Anyways, I think I would tone it down before the transfer has gone through...

Im betting this is all media conjecture knowing there is only days left of the window and are assuming United will make a move. Dortmund will reject in my opinion unless we stump up €120m.

Just don't think it'll happen. As usual we'll attempt to low ball them, they'll obviously say no and life moves on. We end up walking away looking like right knobends, as if we haven't had the entire summer to sort this out.

Secretely getting my cock out in excitement though
