I see. Embarrassing is a strange adjective to use, but perhaps if you feel embarrassed reading posts in what will probably be the biggest muppet saga of our summer window, you should take a step back and only view the thread sporadically?
We need squad depth and not to rely on James when one of front 3 is out.
70s humour hey.Original comment was great. This makes it even better
I also think it’s unlikely we’ll sign martial. Seeing that he plays for our team.
Click ignore thread. Simples.
Exactly. Specially during this pandemic when it wouldn’t look good that we’re seen spending millions the moment the transfer window opens. It wouldn’t bode well with many folks while also affecting our other transfer plans. Timing will be key. Patience is required.
Yeah, silky whippings landing with aplomb.
Naughty ladies love that kind of stuff.

price just went up by 50 million.
I'm not worried about getting Mbappe. We have the English version.
15 minutes since the last post - this one's dead muppets.
You guys are stealing my thunder!
Well a silver lining of this performance is that it should be clear to the club we kind or need him if we want to do anything of note next season...
We should have scored 7. I dont think this is the best example to to sign a winger
They’re gonna look like muppets if they sell him aren’t they.
Statement of intent! Either they are going all out for United to increase their bid or its trolling max.
As a Bayern fan it's normally not my job or goal to defend Borussia Dortmund, and I can understand your frustration, but what they are doing is perfectly within their right and makes total sense, in fact it is even brillant:
They have bought him for close to nothing, have him under contract until 2023, with a wage set in 2019 - whatever happens, they cannot lose in this scenario. They gave other clubs the opportunity to make an offer that matches their demands until before training camp is starting. Didn't happen, end of story.
Just imagine in such a scenario someone came after your most valuable asset and wouldnt want to pay the price you want. You wouldn't sell either, right? And next year, after Corona, his price tag won't be lower for sure, especially since he will be still another two years under contract. Brillant job by BVB.
I just don't understand why somebody at United apparently thought they could get him on the cheap? That's the only part of this story that doesn't make sense.
My recommendation: If you really want him, then buy him this year and pay whatever Dortmund wants. The bluff didn't work, and therefore he'll be tomorrow probably a bit more expensive than he was yesterday. But next year he'll be a year older and even more expensive, because Corona will be over, and most likely Real, Barca, and City will enter the race too.
If he's not making an effort to come as in handing in a transfer request we should move on.
Not sure what Dortmund have done wrong here exactly. They've set a price for their player, one which we apparently haven't met. They've no reason to bargain or negotiate with us. If you're looking to get angry at someone direct maybe channel it towards our own people who can't seem to get the job done.
A lot of teams finances next year will be impacted by Coronavirus. A lot of teams won't have game-day revenue considering how many teams will at the very least play a significant portion of next season behind closed doors.
Honestly that's what I see our transfers as...for a long long time.
We haggle over a few million, los
So... How can United get the job done if they cant get the oppertunity to negotiate?
My problem is with how public Dortmund are about this. Just shut the feck up already, we dont need a daily reminder about how big their balls are or being told about some bullshit deadline.
Corona isnt going away ffs!
Definitely Tier1
The problem for potential buyers is that Dortmund can keep waiting for another year, after next year. And even if they let him go for free in 2023, even then it was the deal of the century for them.
Dortmund don't want to negotiate. They've set their price and it's up to United to meet it. Seems pretty straightforward.
Apart from them running to the tabloids every day basically daring us to bid?
Cant wait for the next deadline. Obviously all communication will now be ceased since the deadline has passed. Bound to be.
Nah, all the signs are that they really do need to sell and are obviously keen to get as much as possible. They’re far too vocal for a club desperate to keep a player who seems quite content to stay... if there’s been no contact by us then why all the press releases?
It’s obviously a dangerous game but a pretty common buying tactic is to wait the seller out. Generally, whoever says a number first (Dortmund) has already ‘lost’ the negotiation. It gives the buyer the starting point to work down from.
That's quality!

I agree with one thing, it would be in United’s best interest to sign him this window as we basically have a free run at him, barring the bit about €120m.
Jury is still out on COVID. Let’s see what happens after fans are allowed back in the stands and how well the world deals with it over the next 6 months. Club finances won’t be bouncing back that fast.

How are you guys posting in here during a game??
Dortmund have balls of steel I must admit. They fecked Woody like a schoolboy. They can wait another 2!!! years then even with just 1 year on his contract he won't go for a cheap because there will be a biding war (Barca, Real, City or PSG as a winner). If City end up with Sancho, Manchester can be easily blue for another decade. We should avoid that for all cost.
I'm not even sure Sancho is that bothered in staying or going.
They must really be serious about this being dead in the water, otherwise the presser, all these posts etc. are really going to make them look like mugs, so unnecessary
It is funny though, they're severely taking the piss now

WTF?
What the hell are you talking about Corona will be over. The earliest vaccines will be early 2021, with the effectiveness of around 50-60%, which means the next season will carry on just like now -- without fans. You should be worried more clubs will have to furlough staffs to survive than anyone having the financial means to splurge 120mil on a single player.
After seeing Rashford's performance tonight, pay Dortmund 130 million pounds for Sancho. Rashford is such an infuriating footballer. Get Sancho at any cost
