Why are people saying we agreed to what they initially wanted?

The chances of the fee rising to €80m are very slim due to the qualifying conditions. If they are met, then that would be a major plus to United as he would have fulfilled his bonus targets, thus helping us achieve success! They wanted €80m outright going by reports so no, we haven't paid what they wanted all along. We have negotiated a deal that is more favourable to us. We won't be paying €80m unless the bonus's that we negotiated are met. How is that so hard for you to understand? We now have the favourable terms due to "negotiating."

Some people on this forum only want to see the negatives! It looks like he will be our player now so go and cry about something else on another thread!

In Portugal the values that are being talked seem to be 55M€+25M€ objectives (10M€ being standard games/goals objectives and the other 15M€ are harder, like Premier League, CL and balon d'or, etc)

Let me take you back to Dec 29th, three days before the transfer window opened


The fact that our club is so dysfunctional has made people forget what a normally functioning club looks like.

you act like no club has ever signed a player in January in the last few days of the window. it literally happens every year, usually the final day.

If it's £46.6m with up to £10m in addons then we've done well to hold our nerve for 3 weeks considering reports were coming out of Portugal that they were demanding £65m + £15m addons.

Stop it Pexbo, that doesn't follow the narrative.

In fairness, they did well with AWB also making sure that Zaha clause stayed, could be worth some decent money that. They do a lot of shit work, but not everything they do is shit and it's annoying that everyone seems to want to push that narrative at every opportunity.

Fernandes' odds to join United started today at about 4/9. Drifted right down to about 2/1 and for a time Barca were favourites. Now the odds are back to 1/50 the highest they've been so far. Roller-coaster of a day.

Anyway. Bruno Fernandes strikes me as a level headed hard working individual who doesn’t feck about. I’ve seen & heard quite a bit of Fernandes for a couple of seasons now and although he has skills, he especially reads the game very well and is also defensively a good player despite his slight frame. Would be a much welcome signing if you ask me.

This was always going to happen (talking about the january window). He seems like a player with right mentality and most important on field skills.

We still have time to add a striker. If that happens this window will be a success in my opionion. Only negative aspect is that we left it very late, again.

Bruuuunooo!

So it’s happening, but will he really make an once of difference under Ole? Seems to me he’s Pogba’s replacement anyway.

What ARE you talking about. We were never going to sign him for twice the price. So why would anyone criticise that. The gap between the two was no more than £10m. Tiny in today's terms.

Get a grip it was hypothetical. I said ‘if’ we were to sign him for double but had it done on Jan 1st there would still be people moaning.

Honestly its like being an old people’s home in here, Serial moaning and complaining, it gets to the point where you have to ask yourself ‘why do you support this team if you don’t like or enjoy anything about them!? And have nothing positive to say about the club you follow.

Basically a thread with hopefully good news for a change infested with miserable posts. That’s what I AM on about bruv

Please. Woodward's Joffrey in every way. A jumped up little shite who thinks he's way more important and talented than he actually is. At least the shit we're throwing in his direction is just metaphorical.
