Fight for his place? As in sit around getting paid a fortune for doing nothing?

It’s an account which summarises all the different sources. They aren’t negative in any way.
If these players are happy to just take their big wage then shut up and stop complaining about your lack of game time. Bailly has consistently complained about not playing enough and straight up threatened to leave. Now he has the chance he won't leave because no actual good team that would pay a similar wage wants him. This is the problem with all the crap overpaid players in our team. Yes there are teams that would be interested but they won't pay anywhere near to the wages required. No good teams would want them.
Under a new manager, he has every right to. Trust me once ETH assessed him and deems him a bad fit for his plans, he will be gone. No surprise he wants to try and impress the new Manager, hopefully he stays fit enough to do that.

Not sure how reliable
I think players like Bailly are confident in their ability and dream of playing more for United than they are just content to sit on the money. Despite our fans negativity about us, we are still at the pinnacle for a lot of players and under a new manager why should he not feel as though he could possibly prove himself to the new coach? I'm sure if he doesn't figure in this manager's plans then he will move on.
Maybe Bailly wants to see if the new manager will give him a look-in? He has the right to.
Please stop spouting this nonsense. Bailly is clearly going to be 5th choice once Martinez joins. Bailly and all these other players are using this "fight for my place" bollocks as a way to keep earning their big wages without getting a load of hate from the fans. The worst thing is that so many of the fans actually accept it.
So Maguire, Varane, Lindeloff, potentially Martinez and Bailly reckons he's getting a look-in?
Not happening.
Bailly was bought as a punt and if he’d been able to stay fit had the talent to be a starter. It wasn’t a terrible transfer until he broke down. The last contract we put him on is terrible business though, like most of the rest of them. We have so much money tied up in players “fighting for their place”
Those spots should be going to youth players on 1/4 of the money. Use any extra big money to genuinely improve the starting 11.

Not at all.
Hence “maybe he wants to see”, I don’t know what kind of conversations he’s had or will have with the new manager. It’s prudent of him to at least want to do that before setting his course
Who the feck quoted them as saying they are more than happy not to play? Do you really believe what you are saying? That a professional footballer is happy not to play? Has to be one of the weirdest things anyone as wrote on here
Me thinks you’re the one spouting nonsense
lots of professional footballers are happy not to play, the clue is in the professional bit. if the choice is a 150k / week to be on the edge of the first team squad and some potential reflected glory along with the trappings of being at a big club, versus say half that as a regular at a much smaller clubs, id take the 150k / week. as would lots of others. its a job.
It’s positive so let’s question it’s validity! (Let’s forget the hinting tweet from Romero though)
He can still think that DeJong is coming without thinking that this guy is reliable. The two aren't interdependent. I never heard of this reporter personally, have you? Has he been known as a reliable transfer source (honest question I really don't know him) ?
He's just an awful source mate
UnitedSofa's never ending quest to just get irrationally mad at anyone being negative, even when the person in question is a true positive muppet, and are just making a point about a dodgy source
It's been well reported that Woodward saw players as assets and gave out contracts not based on their value on the pitch but based on their value to the club
Edit: Also, yea he didnt write contracts but there is no washing from those decisions, he had good part in it.
Ole never player Bailly you really think he wanted him to stay? It was Woodwards decision to give him a new contract to protect the asset and maximise any potential value by selling him. Christ even Bailly said before signing the contract he knew that's what the club were trying to do
I hope someone tells him clearly that there isn't a spot for him to fight for.
Not quite how the tier system works, either they are reliable or they're not regardless of the positivie/negative nature behind the tweet. That particular source is tier 5 and banned, likely for a good reason.
Yes, like i said, if players got extensions against Ole`s wishes or he never was asked for input, that makes him look even worse. I believe he had at least some spine, so dont doubt he green lighted all extensions. Same goes with in/out transfers.
Doesn't matter a jot. We offered him the contract and unless we pay it up, he can stay the duration.

Feck
Lewandowski?
Times exclusive eh! The pinnicle of all honesty.
I’d be relieved to be honest. Obviously this will divide opinion.
Oh no. Anyway…
Not really surprising.
Unfortunately I don't think we're going to receive a satisfactory offer.
Written by Duncan, which means it is coming from Mendes.
Where would he go? United is the best place for him at this current stage, surely it’s bullshit. No top team better than us will guarantee him a starting spot.
Thought he loved the club though?
No one's going to pay him 500k p/w now. I also don't think we'll get in his way if he decides to leave.
Ronaldo -> Bayern and Lewa -> Barca maybe?
Not sure his return was worth the dressing room drama that followed.
I love my first car. No way am I driving around in a B reg Fiesta now though.
I’m sorry to say but for him to have come out like this-he already has an offer from another club
Not reliable. One of the ones marked forbidden in the OP.
