Oh, for sure, but we've been overwhelmed by the negative lot who seem to come in and shoot us all down.Except many of us on here have always said this will go into the final week and be resolved by BVB blinking.
Yeah funny how certain ahem sources haven't mentioned anything about this bid so far isn't itHmmm think this could be done guys. All this bollocks about us bidding and them turning it down is a face saving exercise for Dortmund. Think about it...we have apparently been in discussions with them for months...we know the price and we know that bid would be turned down. I think we've agreed the price and we're just feeding thw media this bollocks so Dortmund can save face.
What has changed? United haven't made a bid and no agreements have been reached with anyone. Same as the last 6 weeks.Not really how it went down but ok.
What use would my 'thoughts' be on whether a bid is true or not. Romano is where he is because he is by far the most reliable , clearly through his agent network. Not infallible but clearly the most reliable transfer guy out there
Sky Sport Germany though, completely differs from Sky Sports News which we have in the UK. Same way Sky Sport in Italy has almost no resemblence to the british outlet. Im talking in terms of reliability that is.Sky Sports News has turned into a joke, it’s an entertainment channel these days reporting things that just get clicks and views.
They’ll hype this up all week to get views, their sources are terrible.
Tune into transfer deadline day guys!!!
You expect them to say "We won't sell him for 150" today just to make a u-turn tomorrow and tell their fans "100 was just too good to pass on"? I think their messaging today would have been slightly more vague, if they were indeed about to seal the dealIn fairness though that’s bollocks isn’t it? Of course they’d sell him for 150m euros. So if they’re saying utter shite like that it does lend itself to believe it could all just be posture. Same with the August 10th deadline. We’re happy to accept 120m on August 10th but not 120m on August 11th as that only gives us a whole 2 months to get a replacement. Totally illogical.
There’s been no false information. It’s all club briefings and all part of negotiations. Very convenient for Sancho to be ill an hour before all this comes out.What has changed? United haven't made a bid and no agreements have been reached with anyone. Same as the last 6 weeks.
There have been a load of tweets with false information, same as the last 6 weeks.
If you've followed his posts youl find he hasn't.There is no such thing . None of these people know what is happening . They just guess based on what anyone else is saying . Romano has basically tweeted every scenario going in this saga by now so he can claim he is right when it is all over and somehow people fall for it
After what he did to us in the 4-4, I was so optimistic... ahh, the last 7 years of football has been mostly pain, punctuated by a few grey spots of numbnessWas she feck I remember trying to half talk him up when I was describing him to her, out of some sort of Muppet pride, deep down knowing I was devastated.
What about Bürki? Part of the smokescreen?There’s been no false information. It’s all club briefings and all part of negotiations. Very convenient for Sancho to be ill an hour before all this comes out.
Sancho mysteriously picking up an illness moments before kick-off in Dortmund's biggest game of the season?What has changed? United haven't made a bid and no agreements have been reached with anyone. Same as the last 6 weeks.

choo choo !!!!
So true. We need this Ed! We've earned it!After what he did to us in the 4-4, I was so optimistic... ahh, the last 7 years of football has been mostly pain, punctuated by a few grey spots of numbness
This is what concerns me. I would think Dortmund care more about backlash from fans than 4th-dimensional negotiating tactics with Woodward.You expect them to say "We won't sell him for 150" today just to make a u-turn tomorrow and tell their fans "100 was just too good to pass on"?

The transfer is just a fee agreement away from him wearing a red shirt. You can't deny its already close.It's been less than 12 hours since Reus reiterated Sancho is staying and one of the papers close to the club reported that he wasn't for sale at any price.
Yet Sancho getting sick (and Bürki as well. for good measure?) and suddenly the transfer is so advanced we're in the kept out of squad stage?
Why do people reply like this? Almost every top journalist has made it clear that we are talking to Dortmund's intermediaries, we've already agreed salary and agent fees with Sancho himself and its common knowledge that 120m euros gets you the player. Not saying it will happen for sure but the August 10 deadline was nothing but a fabrication, a tool to hurry United and nothing more - money speaks.I still cant believe people are on the hype train about this. 10th August has come and gone.
That was our opportunity. We wont get him now.
Maybe Reus gets a nice bonus for maintaining the stanceIt's been less than 12 hours since Reus reiterated Sancho is staying and one of the papers close to the club reported that he wasn't for sale at any price.

Fingers crossed he doesn't still jump on a plane and join up with Dortmund tomorrowOkay, I jumped off this train a while back as I thought it was leading to a dead end.
Sancho mysteriously picking up an illness moments before kick-off in Dortmund's biggest game of the season?
I think a lot has changed. Something is going on behind the scenes.
Oh come on, even you have to admit that Sancho picking up a mysterious illness is all too convienient given the situation.It's been less than 12 hours since Reus reiterated Sancho is staying and one of the papers close to the club reported that he wasn't for sale at any price.

Haven't they said similar with Dembele and Aubameyang in the windows they left though?This is what concerns me. I would think Dortmund care more about backlash from fans than 4th-dimensional negotiating tactics with Woodward.
We will, in a couple of days. Woodward wants to be seen as having tried till the very end. Additionally he can also then say that we'll come back for him next summer.Wouldn't we of put out a brief by now if we hadn't made a bid?
Yeah definitely suspicious to say the leastOh come on, even you have to admit that Sancho picking up a mysterious illness is all too convienient given the situation.
Surprised they wouldn’t know better. He pulled the exact same excuse before leaving citeh.Oh come on, even you have to admit that Sancho picking up a mysterious illness is all too convienient given the situation.
And Bürki, who has to stay home with the same illness? Part of the smokescreen? Agitating for Utd move himself?Yeah definitely suspicious to say the least
Nah, I'm good. Just keep on rolling guysGerman Defence League on night duty! Let us know if you fancy a cup of tea lads.

2 Sugars please Chief and get out the best biscuits for our German friends
One double tea coming right up you mad manOkay, I jumped off the train a while back.
But I want back on. Room for one more?
Oh, and make mine a double!
Yeah like everyone has been reporting for weeks the exact same thing. Its the same info worded differently. Nothing has actually changed but everyone thinks we are very close to signing him when intact we are no different from 6 weeks ago.Why do people reply like this? Almost every top journalist has made it clear that we are talking to Dortmund's intermediaries, we've already agreed salary and agent fees with Sancho himself and its common knowledge that 120m euros gets you the player.

What is your personal take on the situationAnd Bürki, who has to stay home with the same illness? Part of the smokescreen? Agitating for Utd move himself?
Nah, I'm good. Just keep on rolling guys
To be fair, I got it the other week and it was flu like. Put me on my arse for a good week.There is a terrible non-COVID cold going around.
