Why doesn't someone just call Dortmund and say United have agreed €120m, draw up the paperwork?

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.

Maybe we should throw out the dead bodies to spare some energy? Or give them a chance to revive and push the train over the finish line?
Let’s Gooooooo!!!!!!!
Nothing is going mate...
Sounds like Tina from HR didn’t get the weekend off after all.
1300 pages!
Happy 1300 pages!
Would be funny if that was meant to be tongue in cheek given how it reminds me of this

What if, ed pushes the panic button and offers 150m for Sancho ? 
)
)Who is this bloke? I've only heard of him this summer, can somebody tell me what it is he does other than post platitudinous rubbish day after day on Twitter?
A United great on Sky calling the club an embarrassment and inept. That's gonna rile up the marketing and PR teams at United.
he should have just offered the 120 back in August. He’s going to offer 120 today or tomorrow and get refused and look a total tit.What if, ed pushes the panic button and offers 150m for Sancho ?
Then he d get just as much crap as he does without signing him bc 150 would be ludicrous.What if, ed pushes the panic button and offers 150m for Sancho ?
He will get the sack. How would he explain glazers yearly dividends ?What if, ed pushes the panic button and offers 150m for Sancho ?
A journalist notorious for being absolutely miles behind on things.
They won't refuse 120m.
He's from the BBC I've just read, who traditionally tended to rise above transfer rumours and only report stuff that was confirmed to be happening. So now BBC journos are as bad as everyone else, baiting fans for clicks?
Things aren't what they used to be, that's for sure.
Yeap the damage has been done already.
He used to be head of sport I think. He isn’t anymore. He’s still at the BBC so I’m assuming he hears a lot of stuff but he’s tweeting as a United fan.
It seems like a different age when he wrote "Sancho then...".
Shows how long this tedious saga has been going on.
I wonder if Ed is in smoking room right now thinking, yeah, we'll probably make a little bid tomorrow, get him over on a flight, sorted.
Why is the BBC paying a bloke to tweet as a United fan? Either he has info he can impart in an engaging way, the job of a journalist roughly speaking, or he doesn't and he's just a twat with a smartphone.
Why am I even in this thread? Everything about modern transfers annoys me
The BBC aren’t paying him to tweet. It’s his twitter account and he’s tweeting...Why is the BBC paying a bloke to tweet as a United fan? Either he has info he can impart in an engaging way, the job of a journalist roughly speaking, or he doesn't and he's just a twat with a smartphone.

A little check on his credibility here.
Oh he's trying to flex, see how this works out for him.
That's what most would predict today.
Tbf if you asked me I would have told you the same lineup

i hope you’re right!
I don't expect him to mean much by it. Like many people it's probably something between amusement and pity at the fact that Cokerill has been lying in wait in their parking lot for about a week now. Always asking the same question, while everyone, including himself, knows he will always get the same answer, no matter what's actually happening.Would be funny if that was meant to be tongue in cheek given how it reminds me of this

Ohhh he’s gone for it. If this is wrong his credibility of fecked straight away.
If he’s right I’m gonna lube up.
Of course it was.
Just a perfect day
Cavani "here we go"
Then later
Beat Jose too, and then Sancho
Oh just a perfect day
I'm glad I spent it with you

The only damage done is if we don’t get him (because we could really do with him) and even then, it’s predominantly from the media who all love to sh1t on United. Let’s see what happens tomorrow first. If he comes, who gives a monkeys how it happens. Just want to see the lad join us. All this other noise from opposing clubs and fans and ABU media...feck em, they don’t pay our bills so who cares what they think!?
You now have several high profile players at the Dortmund saying Sancho is staying. Not that "we will wait and see" but that he is staying.
I can understand if its the board or manager playing the game and driving a hard deal but unless this is one very elaborate attempt by Dortmund where they've persuade several top players to lie about Sancho staying in order make a bit more money, then it looks like he's staying.
This is honestly one of the most tiring transfers I've ever followed. One day its a dead cert he's coming the next it 100% he's staying at Dortmund. Thank good there's only 36 hours left of this.

By several do you mean 2? Reus and Meunier? Any others?
Sancho still being worked on
He’s right
Never doubted him, the great Norwegian oracle.
