Thought this was a joke, then looked at your previous posts. Ruddy hell.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.

Yeah, I just think that for the prices being quoted Murtough would definitely be involved.
Transfers are interesting because once a window shuts you;re pretty wells tarting from scratch, as such I think this would have been transitioned. Judge definitely working on it but as I replied to Damo, for close to 100 million, Murtough will definitely be involved.
Fair enough, cheers mate.
10 million is not much. This should get done soon.
Let’s get this done reds!! The earlier we get it done then the quicker we can move on to our next target, we need all our signings ready for pre season, I understand it will be difficult obviously because of the euros.
He will sign once England crash out, then fly on holiday
having Sancho, Rashford, Greenwood and Amad as wing options in the next few years ... dear God. Hard not to get excited.
Nah England got this dude.
+ Martial
The forgotten man.
didn't forget him, just think of him as someone who primarily plays up front. Greenwood might too at some point, we'll see ... but the options we have are certainly very exciting.
Still a month away then?
I’m bemused that one could write something like this seriously.
Even if there is a release clause which is reasonable buying club would still try to negotiate better term of payment structure or If it's bit on the higher side buying clubs would still try to negotiate it down it's just common sense.
You would get taken to the cleaners at any of our local markets with that attitude
Unpopular opinion, Sancho should start on the left and Greenwood on the right.
Some kind of United transfer market PTSD? I kind of get it to be fair. This feels totally different though. We are actually negotiating and not making a total hash of it by the sounds of things. Having dedicated people there constantly studying the market and in dialogue with clubs is exactly what we’ve been missing.
don't think it's unpopular at all, that might even be the best combination. Although I do think Rashford on the left and Sancho on the right will work very well too.
It should be made known that we aren’t using intermediaries anymore this time and none of that wishy washy crap. United are directly dealing and communicating with BVB. Both sides want this done soon, i also imagine Sancho’s camp too could be pushing the deal to wrap up as well
No point in signing him then. Im sick of signing left sided players, we have more pressing concerns. We are looking at mininal improvement with that move.
There would be times when that will be the case as players get injured or out of form, but I’m not convinced on a Rashford Greenwood wing combo as they are both players looking primarily to score rather than create or create space for others, particularly against teams sitting back.
They will be pretty fluid anyway so regardless of starting position they will pop up in different area’s.
Throbbing!
This is gonna be done soon.
Payment structure and bonuses plus trying to get a few million shaved off/turned into bonuses is all that's left. Might be done by end of the weekend/before England's first match.
Then medicals and personal terms signed after England finishes.

I feel like we've always been organised since the committee formed, it's the valuations piece where the issue was last time. We did offer them £90m last season and they straight up rejected it...that's pretty insane.
Judge seems to get tarred with the Woodward brush because they knew each other pre United but if you look at players we've brought in, the finances and structures involved in fees and salaries + offloading players like Sanchez and sorting the loan financials for lots of our of favour players, that's all on Judge.
I reckon he could comfortably play #10 as well if Lingard leaves and Bruno needs a break here and there.
Strongly disagree. Neto is better and proven in the Premier League.
It's the position he's probably going to ask to be played in before he signs. This is the reason I've never been that excited about his signing. He played the whole 2nd half of the season on the left for Dortmund. He scores more from the left and assists more from the right.
Martial's trial at CF failed and James also much prefers the left so the the signing of Sancho will leave us with
RW - Rashford, Sancho, Martial, James
LW - Greenwood, Diallo
Thats completely unbalanced. Martial and James must go if we sign Sancho. I'd like to see a more experienced player on the right.
Overall, I'd give Sancho a miss.
we should :
Go all out for Haaland
Sign a top Cdm
An attacking Rb option
A top Cb
Sell:
Pogba
Lingard
James
Bailly
Williams
Dalot
Pereira
De Gea/Henderson
Bissaka/new
New/Lindelof
Maguire/Tuanzebe
Shaw/Telles
New/Matic
Fred/Mctominay
Bruno/VDB
Rashford/Martial
Greenwood/Diallo
Haaland/Cavani
No no no. This isn’t the United way. We’re supposed to sign players the day before the new season begins.
Not sure if been asked before, but don't City still have first refusal on him?
Anyhow, from limited youtube clips I've seen, seems like he's another one who's best when on left side. Hope clips were misguiding or he's good at multi tasking.

First refusal doesn't mean a thing when it comes to the players decision
The fact that Whitwell reports that Dortmund are open to add-ons this time around makes it feel much more imminent and more a matter of when than if compared to last year when they wanted everything up front and reportedly rubbished the idea of add-ons
Never seen a situation like that occur, where particular scenario goes down to players preferance. Surely, there's something in black and white to avoid such scenarios?
He's about to play in a major tournament. One unlucky injury and they can get massively fecked. He's hardly an asset who's going to raise his value significantly, if he has a good tournie, the time to cash in is definetly now.
don't worry I'm sure we'll do that with whatever CB we land on, after we've shipped a load of goals against and dropped some points obviously
He probably is a Mata, Lingard replacement more than a right winger..
Club disagrees with other club over valuation of player...ONLY AT UNITED!!! FFS.
What about the Welsh Wizard Daniel James?
What are they going to do if he doesn't want to sign for them?
First refusal just means that if a player is available for transfer then a club would be informed first. Neither the player or the other club is under any obligation there.
Say that again and I'll feck you up. You're in for a world of hurt, hater, surely conceived through a hole in the condom.
edit: not possible to whitetext a link?
Pretty much.
Basic points taken from that article are:
- Our offer was €75m + €10m (£75.5 million total)
- Dortmund are holding out for €100m (£86 million in total)
- Dortmund are open if the total fee is made up of more add-ons as long as they're achievable. Team success triggers rather than individual success. United are famous for their Ballon d'Or clause (Martial and Fernandes have such).
- We want to spread the payment over more instalments. Dortmund appear flexible on that front and agreement over this is not seen as major hurdle. (I suppose the "We offered to pay over 5 years, they want it over 4" talk came out of that, but apparently is not a biggie.)
- The general feeling from all camps is that a deal will happen. Sancho IS pushing for the move, while still showing the respect his current club deserves. Dortmund are aware of Sancho's wish to move and want to respect it. Dortmund are known to keep their gentleman's agreements and don't want to be seen in bad light as that could harm their model of bringing young promising talent and not stepping in their way when it feels it's the right move.
As far as I’ve seen, there is no first refusal, just the sell on clause. If someone could just splash £50 mill or so on Zaha (go on Arsenal we know you want to), then that would be lovely.
