Evra. Loved him as a player, and enjoy some of his antics. However he’s pretty mad, and licks uncooked chickens. I’m not sure he’s the best barometer to use...
Not sure Goldbridge has other sources than the one guy telling him we would sign Fernandes last summer.I know Mark Goldbridge isn’t a reliable source, but he mentions a couple of people he’s spoken to who have knowledge on the inside have said Utd’s strategy has been shocking. Utd genuinely believed that Dortmund would cave in near the end of the window and would accept less than 120m euro. Every person who knows anything about football knows Dortmund aren’t going to budge. Bunch of clowns in charge.
That´s what they said about the period after lockdown, and that they expected a lot of injuries.The fact that this did not strike United, is good news.
Yep, everything has to be the worst extreme. Anyway, I'm looking forward to this being over one way or another.
Yup, I think he's OTT on his love for Shaw, although I think he's a good player, and undervalues McT - but that's pretty much it
With regards to his views on players, I think that’s natural for all fans to have different views on different players. That’s what fans do.
Yeap same,sick of this sh!t show.
Oh definitely - and there is always the double-sided sword nature to what he does. The worse we are, the better his channel does. I think this is what gets up people the most.
Just watched it. See I don’t dislike Mark like most on here but he’s doing that “my guy says this” or “people I’ve spoke to said that” to feel important. Anyone can see what’s going on here. Rio mentioning how Ed handled his contact, Evra mentioning a club contracting him cause Matt Judge won’t answer his phone and several terrible transfer window can tell you how inept they all are.I know Mark Goldbridge isn’t a reliable source, but he mentions a couple of people he’s spoken to who have knowledge on the inside have said Utd’s strategy has been shocking.

Thats what he plays off of though
He was just as bad! missed out on some big targets.
He's been very confident right up to this video, whatever has been said to him has certainly spooked him
Possibly the most damning thing you could say about Ed is that he's got people reminiscing about the good old days of David feckin Gill
He also got us some good ones and certainly better than mutt and jeff.
I saw the MEN article today about how the club is being run and you can clearly see it’s by a bunch of idiots. The fact that the 3 main guys in charge all went to the same university and are mates just shows how inept they are. All finance guys who are managing the biggest club in the world without the foggiest knowledge of football between them.
Yeah I noticed that. He’s been adamant it’s going to happen and always remain 90%. But I saw him weaken his stance from what he’s learnt today.
Nobody ever slagged Gill off or turned up at his house did they
Nani and Anderson in one day was incredible though
Maybe that video of Evra last week was him seeing this on the horizon
As am i brother.
Christ
Everyone is going to be saying the same on Monday when they see what we end up with. Ed, Matt and the glazers couldn’t run a bath and their endless dithering and lack of direction was further exposed in the covid climate. It seems like they don’t know how to deal in any other way than how they took over us. Its cold and hostile and remote. No personal touch or relationships being formed with other clubs at all by the sounds of things. Recently We say we are biggest club in the world but try to bully smaller clubs into letting us spend a few million less after months of needless drama. I’m sure selling clubs hate it and would just rather focus on winning matches.
Don’t be stupid! As ludicrous as it sounds, I’ve been saying the same thing for weeks. We will do exactly what we always do and pay the asking price. There’s even a post I said weeks ago about not being surprised if this goes right down to deadline day. I’ll be honest I didn’t expect it to go this late but it doesn’t surprise me anymore.Are you jumping off the train?
I gave up a while back but I hope you are correct.
Yes you’ve always said we will pay the asking price in final days.
The only reason I’ve not given up is because we have history of having the same journey time and again.
I think itll probably be too late by the final day. Lots of clubs get an extra season out of want away players so expecting sancho to push hard enough to get a move in a day isn’t entirely realistic. They could have simply just decided to not accept any offer from us now, even 120 and get the extra season out of an unhappy Sancho. Our problem is we’ve to wait until Monday to find out. We probably still could have done this deal for 120 a few weeks ago but I feel like it’s less likely now with every passing day and no news.
Didn’t LVG leave DDG on the bench for our first few games of the season when he was off to Madrid? Stated something about the player’s head being everywhere but in the match so best to let him think about it.
Daily reminder for folks that don’t quite understand the financial health of a public company like Manchester United. This deal was never happening
Agreed. I have a feeling if it doesn't happen by then, it wont happen this yearI feel that the next 97ish hours will be crucial in getting Sancho over the line
"Insanity is doing the same thing again and again and expecting different results"Are you jumping off the train?
The point is that we all knew dortmund won't accept anything less than the asking price. So either pay it or strengthen elsewhere. Instead they played Russian roulette winding down the days to the point where we're now desperately looking at rejects on loan deals and we will no doubt sign someone average last minute at an overpriced fee. Disgraceful
