i don't think we get our club back till we face a genuine relegation battle or someone offers the glazers 5+ billion.
If castles is right and we bid a bit more and we still don't get him, it will simply be "see no value in the market".

We're not going to buy Bruno Fernandez. It seems the club is too far apart. We have to live with the fact that there is no back-up to Rashford at the club. There has not been a back-up for him all season and the club can not be surprised to be in this situation now, where he is injured, and we don`t have anyone to replace him. And I now that Fernandez is not a striker, but he would have offered us some possibilities going forward.
He is also Portugal international. That country has produced some great talents like Bernado Silva
Silva, Ronnie, Carvalho, and those are just a few that made it in the premier league with ease.
Players come to the EPL from all corners of the world and make it. Just remember Vidic came from Spartak or whatever.
People still think that the EPL is played at some godly level of incredible football where only guys like Grealish and Maddison can perform. Put those into a UCL top game and they're as lost as the "man united" way.
Any transfer, be it from the EPL or not involves a risk factor, but if you don't try, like we're obviously doing with Bruno, you never find out.

If and when we sign Fernandes. We are going to see a huge change in are play. Can not wait for this to happen. It will shut a lot of non believers in the club,
Is this Fernandez guy any good?
Yep
360 sources on twitter is saying that we’ve launched an £52 mill. bid and that Matt Judge is on his way to Lisbon to make an agreement.They dont give any source though.
and when we don’t we’ll see the same old Excuses mimicking the party line. The same will happen with Sancho in the summer, and then when we pay 120m for Maddison it will be because he is twice the player.
I'm not sure what Maddison has actually 'proved' in the PL, he's had a purple patch where he's been good apart for that he's been quite average, sure as hell not a 80m player. As for Grealish, it's his first season and a good start let's see how he does next season.
People don't think it's a 'Godly level', people think, and rightly so, that it's different
The PL is incredibly fast-paced and the ball probably spends more time in the air than in any of the other major European league. It's not that good players can't learn to adapt, it's just that like when you do anything new it takes time.
Fred is a great example. Worse than useless for the first 12-16 months at the club. Under any normal circumstances he would likely have missed his chance and been discarded as a bad buy. He's almost been lucky that the club is in such a poor state because it's meant he's had far more time and chances to prove himself - and is now looking a decent player
I'm not that sold on Maddison either. People keep referencing his high 'chances created' stat but he takes all their free kicks and corners if I'm not mistaken. He's got a good pass and is pretty intelligent but I'm not convinced with his dribbling, shooting or physicality. Bruno definitely offers more and Grealish does too.
360 sauces reliable? Tier 1?
Brief sauce
Completely agree . This is exactly my main gripe atm. Other clubs get players signed and we find out about it last minute. Since Fergie and Gill left we have to go through this shit every single transfer window because of how bad we are are closing deals .
We have turned into a amateur laughing stock of a club
must be true then.Could have something to do with that every other club know how «rich» we are and trying to make us overpay.
Even you half Bruno's output it's still better than Maddison.
If Matt Judge is on his way then we definitely won't sign him
Oh no we'll get him...If Matt Judge is on his way then we definitely won't sign him
On 800,000 a week.
Plus millions a month in bonuses if he agrees to do commercials with our indonesian condom sponsors and our Botswanan bog brush suppliers.
I'm bored of this shite now. Let's just feck him off.
I'm pretty sure the condom sponsors would back out knowing that our team can't score.
We have been lacking penetration so, yeah, probably a waste of time.
We have 5 more days, can't believe we have let this so late and might not sign him at all. Amazing how a big club (before any smart arse comes up with we aren't, disagree. We are) is run where we can't even sign 1 player when we have so many injuries and also didn't replace outgoing players.
I'm bored of this shite now.
Just pay the damn money and get him!
360 Sources have 0 sources?
We could sign up a couple of male porn stars.
Castles' saying we've upped our bid to €55m.
This is like crying at 9pm in a club because you haven’t pulled! Ok every bird in there is married to Better looking blokes but Jesus come kicking out time there is always the chance of scraps. Be strong brother. Although, when your wing man is called Ed, you may have more reason to be concerned.
This whole 'saga' has been made-up Twitter bullshit.
What was the figure that Sporting reportedly wanted ?
who, Woodward or judge?
I think it was €70-80m in summer, reportedly an intermediary approached us this transfer window and they would take less, so if the deal happens it'll probably be €55m+10m in add ons.
How Judge describes himself
This quote is from the biography on Judge's LinkedIn page: "Managing Manchester United's equity and debt capital structure – three equity offerings incl the IPO, totalling over $450m; and three debt refinancings ($1bn+) – debt private placement, term-loan and RCF. Also player negotiations (transfers and playing contracts)."
Little end product too.
Something something balls going no where near the goal something something....
I want us to sign him just to see what you come out with "He's not even real, its just a hologram!".What if you quarter it?
I think this is true of City, Chelsea, Barca, Real and PSG. How come they manage to get deals done?
Wouldn't surprise me if City do a lot of under the table payments, same with PSG. No idea how Chelsea manage it.
He's real. But the sources for the story are unsubstantial and unconvincing. Occasionally, some of the shitty sources have been wrapped with a bow and delivered by a reporter that Reddit tell us is 'reputable'. But the sources are still shit so that's the only only salient point.
And then you get this thread. Posters keep mentioning that nothing makes sense, or the that the club is acting illogically. But that's only because the underpinning narrative is not true. It's like convincing yourself that the earth is flat based on fantasy stories in A Bola. And then you get confused about how space travel works and start blaming NASA.
