It's nonsense, faux outrage for clicks.How is he spot on?

Because the tea lady IS useless at transfers.How is he spot on?
He is talking nonsense though. Basically when we sign players we are lucky because someone else couldn't and when we don't sign players it's a joke because they chose someone else? He essentially described transfer dealings for every singly clubs on earth, no one gets all his preferred targets.Tweet

Spot on, even a PSG fan gets it more than our own board
It's baffling really, now all of a sudden all are experts on United transfers out in the media and apparently, according to them we were in for Bale, Thiago and who knows who else and suddenly Regulion is some star who we missed out on just cause of meaningless buy back clause.He's a terrible pundit, and he's wrong there too.
We aren't just going to buy players for the sake of it. They have to fit a long term approach and want to play for the club. We have gone for 3 players outside of Sancho. One we got, one we (rightly) wouldn't accept a buyback clause and the final one wanted Liverpool.
This has nothing to do with board ineptitude. And as far as sancho goes, chill the feck out. Its a lot of money to consider for any club and it will rightly go to the wire.
He isn't but it's the sentiment among the fans and this Journalist is making name for himself with this. He just said what ManUtd fans want to hear.How is he spot on?
Ronaldo was by far the most expensive player in the world when RM bought him. Would you consider him a bargain? I know I would.Sorry but potentially the 5th/6th most expensive transfer of all time can even be considered as a bargain is ,frankly,hilarious.
Exactly. No club is going in for Sancho because simply put, they can't. We will go in with a limit in our heads, and suddenly its a massive issue.It's baffling really, now all of a sudden all are experts on United transfers out in the media and apparently, according to them we were in for Bale, Thiago and who knows who else and suddenly Regulion is some star who we missed out on just cause of meaningless buy back clause.
As a PSG fan, watching the conveyor belt of talent they had succeeding at other clubs, he should probably be more outraged at that.He is talking nonsense though. Basically when we sign players we are lucky because someone else couldn't and when we don't sign players it's a joke because they chose someone else? He essentially described transfer dealings for every singly clubs on earth, no one gets all his preferred targets.
What the feck are you on aboutBecause it's a joke that the club apparently don't understand all the palpable frustration from the fans over the way we go about our business
Yes and the clause will be active from summer 2021.He mentioned Halaand,which I was disappointed in us missing out on, but didn't his agent want a buyout clause in his deal similar to the one he's now got at BVB ?
Yes, Raiola insisted on a buyout clauseHe mentioned Halaand,which I was disappointed in us missing out on, but didn't his agent want a buyout clause in his deal similar to the one he's now got at BVB ?
The man stated that Real Madrid couldn't sign him, therefore it doesn't count in favor of United. He doesn't even have the decency to critically think and tell himself that maybe if Real Madrid one of the wealthiest clubs can't sign a player, signing players isn't always easy? He says that it took United 18 months to sign Bruno, how long did it take for Real Madrid to sign Hazard and why no one else managed to sign Bruno during those 18 long months?As a PSG fan, watching the conveyor belt of talent they had succeeding at other clubs, he should probably be more outraged at that.
All his examples were crap as well, he even used an example where we did get the player... Go figure.
Off to Bayern or Real at that stage I'm sure.Yes and the clause will be active from summer 2021.
I think his wife works at the Arsenal too. Some PR or comms role. Maybe an agenda going on.He is talking nonsense though. Basically when we sign players we are lucky because someone else couldn't and when we don't sign players it's a joke because they chose someone else?

Yeah, proper jeb ends. On top of that conflating the Haaland and Gabriel situations. I'd expect this sort of stuff on talksport.The man stated that Real Madrid couldn't sign him, therefore it doesn't count in favor of United.

The brief from this morning doing the rounds on different outlets about the club being frustrated over fan backlash on social mediaWhat the feck are you on about
Bayern have Lewandowski, so they won't. Madrid might. I think he might stay for 2 years before making the move.Off to Bayern or Real at that stage I'm sure.
Anyone apart from ESPN reported that?The brief from this morning doing the rounds on different outlets about the club being frustrated over fan backlash on social media
I guess because it's a journo and not a United fan saying it makes it not valid for some reason and we'll feign outrage and pretend that the same sentiment hasn't become widespread on here
ESPN isn't better than Talksport, we all know it but for some reason when they play to the gallery a part of the fanbase ignores it.Yeah, proper jeb ends. On top of that conflating the Haaland and Gabriel situations. I'd expect this sort of stuff on talksport.
He mentioned Halaand,which I was disappointed in us missing out on, but didn't his agent want a buyout clause in his deal similar to the one he's now got at BVB ?
Yes and the clause will be active from summer 2021.
Worst case scenario in this is that we'd lose Haaland for 100m, enough to buy a replacement. Yeah it would suck to lose a player like that, but it sucks even more to not have the player at all and instead loan a player from the chinese league.Yes, Raiola insisted on a buyout clause
Too which end they can get absolutely fecked.
Sky did yesterday about them being 'clear-headed' , and not caring about any fan 'hysteria' this windowAnyone apart from ESPN reported that?
And are ESPN even part of media which we usually deploy if United intend to put some information out I actually doubt it.Anyone apart from ESPN reported that?
Lewandowski is ageing like fine wine but he is turning 33 so I thought Haaland might be on the radar. Also forgot City but unsure if he's a Pep player.Bayern have Lewandowski, so they won't. Madrid might. I think he might stay for 2 years before making the move.
ESPN sources aren't a brief and the club maybe thinking that negativity isn't ideal is not exactly ground breaking, we can all make that one up and the club most likely actually think that. The rest of their rants are nonsensical and when United fans share the same thoughts, we tell them that it's nonsensical.The brief from this morning doing the rounds on different outlets about the club being frustrated over fan backlash on social media

100 million? Clause is closer to half of that.Worst case scenario in this is that we'd lose Haaland for 100m, enough to buy a replacement. Yeah it would suck to lose a player like that, but it sucks even more to not have the player at all and instead loan a player from the chinese league.
So not a brief.Sky did yesterday about them being 'clear-headed' , and not caring about any fan 'hysteria' this window
Exactly. It's Simon stone, Ducker, Hirst. Not ESPN.And are ESPN even part of media which we usually deploy if United intend to put some information out I actually doubt it.
Fair enough, i though it was around 90, but 70 is not a bad amount either.100 million? Clause is closer to half of that.
Why would anyone pay 100m when his buyout is £63m.Worst case scenario in this is that we'd lose Haaland for 100m, enough to buy a replacement. Yeah it would suck to lose a player like that, but it sucks even more to not have the player at all and instead loan a player from the chinese league.
How the feck is 100mill the worst case scenario when the buyout clause is almost half of thatWorst case scenario in this is that we'd lose Haaland for 100m, enough to buy a replacement. Yeah it would suck to lose a player like that, but it sucks even more to not have the player at all and instead loan a player from the chinese league.
It will be if we have to play him, develop him and lose for low fee while we also stall players like Martial, Greenwood. It will be worth it if he helps us to win CLs, PL but we are not there yet.Fair enough, i though it was around 90, but 70 is not a bad amount either.
You’re right and Ole has presented long term options to the board in Bellingham, Haaland and Sancho and they’re going to fail on all 3. That’s on Ed for failing to get 3 young exciting players to this team. Ole clearly sounded out all 3 about their interest and they passed the first test. All of them are/were interested in joining but the club ultimately failed to do its job in getting the deals over the line.He's a terrible pundit, and he's wrong there too.
We aren't just going to buy players for the sake of it. They have to fit a long term approach and want to play for the club. We have gone for 3 players outside of Sancho. One we got, one we (rightly) wouldn't accept a buyback clause and the final one wanted Liverpool.
This has nothing to do with board ineptitude. And as far as sancho goes, chill the feck out. Its a lot of money to consider for any club and it will rightly go to the wire.
The fact he says “who do they think they are?” When talking about us rejecting buyout clauses from Real Madrid tells you everything you need to know about him.Laurens is also the same guy who had a hilarious yet embarrassing unprofessional meltdown when United knocked PSG out of the CL in 018. He ain't no friend of ours.
Lots of people saying BVB don't have to or dont want to sell Sancho. And yet Woodward is prepared to take this to the wire to get the best deal. That implies that he knows from his sources that BVB must sell this summer, so just a case of waiting it out to get a deal he can afford.
Madrid will have to break the bank for Mbappe next season.Off to Bayern or Real at that stage I'm sure.
