All figures are made upWhy? 120m is a made up number. It’s not like a player has an MSRP. They might accept less. Might not. Worth trying. Problem is, they hold all the cards this summer.

Basically. Makes sense why they were so bullish about getting exactly what they want for him.Since he has three years left on his contract, pay up or forget it.
Sancho is a better player and prospect than Dembele was. Hes a better player worth more than Auba or Pulisic. Auba as well was a lot older when he left, and Pulisic im pretty sure had 1.5 seasons left on his contract and was a bench player behind Sancho despite being older (and he never found consistency).They paid that fee cos of the Neymar sale though. Everyone knew how much Barca got and hiked the price accordingly. The opposite should be true here where the fee is more realistic.
I'm not upset by it but why do Dortmund only now have a backbone? Pulisic went to Chelsea for £58m. Aubameyang went to Arsenal for £56m. Is Sancho worth double those two to Dortmund? I don't get why they are suddenly playing such hardball with us. We have done business before for Kagawa and Mkhitaryan so it doesn't feel like we have poor relationship with Dortmund.
Yup, agreed!Of course it is. This guy is pandering because Ed Woodward abuse = sounds legit and makes you believable.
Man's talking in 3rd person as wellShocking if true but that tweet literally sounds like indykaila
That last part sounds like a throw back to the days of Peter Kenyon.
What a *insert abuse* just pay the installments!feck off Woody
Are you sure? I thought Evra was a free agent at the time and a quick google says he signed a new extension in 2014 not a extension clause. Still, I think it is almost the only example I've heard of it happening.Evra didn’t have a choice. Woody activated the extra year.
Feck Dortmund? This is on Woodward, not DortmundI cant be bothered. Feck Dortmund. On to our next target.
Yep, it has always been that simple. We are making a meal out of this transfer.Has anything really changed? If €120m is the price that everyone knows then if it’s paid, it’s done. Regardless of contract extension or not, if they’ve quoted a price and it’s met, it’s done.

The english communication is bit more vague than Zorc, might be intentional or not

That’s not the case whatsoever, just because it’s not the news you wanted, doesn’t mean people like Romano are any less credibleThis just shows how little Romano and other journalists actually know about the situation. They are briefed what the clubs want them and us to know..
its true, evra wasnt all that happy about itAre you sure? I thought Evra was a free agent at the time and a quick google says he signed a new extension in 2014 not a extension clause. Still, I think it is almost the only example I've heard of it happening.
Woody extended it, Evra confirmed that was the reason he was pissed at him.Are you sure? I thought Evra was a free agent at the time and a quick google says he signed a new extension in 2014 not a extension clause. Still, I think it is almost the only example I've heard of it happening.
We wouldn't be. Only fans who think they know as much as(if not more) about whats going on than the club, believe this.I can't see how we would be unaware of the 1 year extension.
Bit early to judge isn't it? We could go out and sign a CB, a RW, a CM and still have change left over if we choose not to do this deal. When Ferran Torres moves for €23m it does make Sancho seem awfully expensive.Well it was nice having the hope that our owners and management were serious about getting us back challenging. Backing out on Sancho is 100% just a lack of ambition and just shows that they're ok with being top 4 challengers at best.
City strengthening, Liverpool already at the top, Chelsea aggressively strengthening... United have to do substantial reinforcements this summer, or else we're fecked next season.
Ok. Feck Woodward and feck Dortmund. Happy?Feck Dortmund? This is on Woodward, not Dortmund
You'll be selling a few, surely?I’m not sure we have 120m to spend this summer anyway, let alone on one player.
The meltdown is incredible.There was everyone thinking we were finally turning the corner as a club. Just feck off glazers and take your cretin with you.
Would be very surprised if Zork does a 180 and sells him now. There's not much wiggle room to back out of that sort of definitive statement.Err what? If we pay we still get him.
TBF to Dortmund, if he's got 3 years on his contract, it's a fair price.
