At the moment I am just focussed on us completing the season and hopefully getting 4th plus winning 1 or 2 trophies.
I agree with this 100%. Money is not gonna be a problem if we get serious, and Dortmund will be listening. The question should be who else we can afford. Now is the time to spend the noodle money.I don't understand why so many are being pessimist. 90M + 60M in credit in cash is huge money, especially in an environment were clubs will be struggling to stay afloat. If Dortmund can afford to keep Sancho then well done to them. They do come across as a selling club. Also I wonder why would they do it. Sancho has 2 years left in his contract. If they won't sell him on cheap now then they'll have to sell him on cheap in 12 months time. So in my opinion they are better off selling him now when they need the money and can negotiate some juicy clauses for him
As said 150m in cash is big money in this current climate. Many clubs will be forced to the wall with this crisis and cash will be king. If Dortmund want to act as jerks then I'd have a look at clubs like Roma. Prior to his injury Zaniolo was scoring goals for fun. He can play both in CM and RW and he's doing well in a team that didn't make Mkhitaryan and Kagawa look like a super star.

Any one (or more) of Grealish, Bellingham, Ighalo, Partey, whoever fits, and I’d be stunned. And i reckon we can afford it. One, or more, in adition to Sancho.
And if we don’t move on Sancho now, we’ll regret it for generations. Ole knows it. Woodward knows it. Jadon himself knows it.
A young, world class, english front trio of Rashford, Greenwood and Sancho playing together for Manchester United to «complete» the rebuild, blasting us into a decade of contention on all fronts.
Add Maguire, AWB and hopefully Grealish to these three, and were looking at 400 caps for England combined when all is done and dusted. Please quote me on this in 10 years.
Make it happen.
In 621 minutes of Premier League and Europa League play at right forward/right attacking midfield this season, 18 year old Mason Greenwood is providing a goal or assist every 62 minutes. I don't see any reason to think he wouldn't enjoy continued success with more coaching at the position and more playing experience at the position. Like Sancho, his superb technical skills, not his overwhelming physical abilities, that make him so productive at the position, imoDangerous thinking. Greenwood has world class potential but he`s still not ready to start week in week out and he`s more of a RVN/RVP than a Salah/Pepe/Mahrez anyway he`s playing on the RW for now till he physically develops and he lacks the natural pace wingers/inside forwards have, long term he`s a CF.
It’s actually even £90m + £150m in credit.I don't understand why so many are being pessimist. 90M + 60M in credit in cash is huge money, especially in an environment were clubs will be struggling to stay afloat.

Ah ok, my mistake. That's huge money mateIt’s actually even £90m + £150m in credit.
Well it may become a problem if Dortmund insist on a silly sum of money like for example 120m in cash. Considering that we buckled up for Maguire and in some ways Bruno then that a realistic scenario we must brace ourselves to. I hope that United has a plan B for Jadon just in case. We can't face yet another season without a top quality RW + if we are serious on an alternative then there's a chance that Dortmund would stand down and be more realisticI agree with this 100%.

Greenwood's natural position is CF/ST. Why should we move him to right wing. No one in Dortmund would like Haaland to play in RW/LW incase Sancho moves to another club.In 621 minutes of Premier League and Europa League play at right forward/right attacking midfield this season, 18 year old Mason Greenwood is providing a goal or assist every 62 minutes.

I don't confess to have inside knowledge though. I'm saying if you take all things into consideration us signing one of the most wanted players in Europe during a pandemic where we are going to lose tens of millions is just pie in the sky.Jon Snow.
And you have been peddling this line, and tbh, just about any line of negativity long before the accounts were published. For months in fact.
You need to get over yourself. Your an internet fan like everyone else. Coming along declaring what will and won’t happen and telling everyone else that they are idiots for even daring to ‘hope’ that a deal that has been very, very widely reported to be highly possible is in fact possible.
You can think we will not sign Sancho all you like. What you shouldn’t do is confuse yourself for someone who has any more of a clue of what will actually happen than any other poster online.
well Buck, you're very positive and optimistic if you think the FA cup and Europa league are going to played out, as well as all the league fixtures for all other countries, for us to win two trophies this year.At the moment I am just focussed on us completing the season and hopefully getting 4th plus winning 1 or 2 trophies.
While those sums are correct, I think it is misleading for fans to think that a significant amount can/will be used for transfer transactions. Don’t forget that there are salaries to pay, debt to service, facilities to maintain and unfortunately dividends to pay to the Glazers . All of these fixed expenses have to be paid for with reduced revenues.It’s actually even £90m + £150m in credit.
As soon as I saw the Ogden tweet regarding Bayern being interested, I also envisioned Christian Falk rubbishing it..Tweet

And we have heard you. So now what you need to do is continue your campaign by telling those who have NOT heard you - like Honigstein, Ornstein, Romano and the rest of the journalists who, despite being aware that there is a pandemic, are suggesting that the deal is still being pursued.I don't confess to have inside knowledge though.

I don't think this impacts signing Sancho in that Sancho could play at LW or Greenwood up front. The idea is probably to have 5 star quality players for 3 spots, with one wide player and one central option, like how City have Sterling-Aguero-Sane as starters and Jesus as a main central sub and Mahrez the 3rd winger. We'd have Rashford-Martial-Sancho with Greenwood (central) and James (wide) backing them up. Hell we could even play Sancho-Rashford-Greenwood as a front 3 longterm if it turns out Greenwood is our best attacker and at his best on the right and not centrally.In 621 minutes of Premier League and Europa League play at right forward/right attacking midfield this season, 18 year old Mason Greenwood is providing a goal or assist every 62 minutes. I don't see any reason to think he wouldn't enjoy continued success with more coaching at the position and more playing experience at the position.

thanks for the update.At the moment I am just focussed on us completing the season and hopefully getting 4th plus winning 1 or 2 trophies.
Even then he is still not ready to start week in week out or be a focal point in the big big games yet and there is the issue of depth. If he gets injured we are screwed. Not discounting his potential as I HIGHLY rate him but having him as a regular on the RW instead of someone established should not be an option if we want to go to the next level.In 621 minutes of Premier League and Europa League play at right forward/right attacking midfield this season, 18 year old Mason Greenwood is providing a goal or assist every 62 minutes.

Spend your cash reserves and credit line on player purchases before the PL has even resumed playing.

Seen a lineup online suggesting he will. If so I’ll definitely be watching todayIs he starting today for Dortmund?
Given the transfer window will not open before the PL resumes that is near on impossible.Spend your cash reserves and credit line on player purchases before the PL has even resumed playing. What could possibly go wrong?
You're comparing chalk and cheese in terms of development. Greenwood has had 18 of his 22 appearances coming off the bench whilst Sancho is the star of a title challenging Bundasliga side, able to strike fear into the likes of Bayern or Barcelona players every time he gets on the ball.In 621 minutes of Premier League and Europa League play at right forward/right attacking midfield this season, 18 year old Mason Greenwood is providing a goal or assist every 62 minutes.

You can do business anytime you want. The transfer windows just regulate when you are allowed to register new players to competitions. But that's kind of missing my point: as long as there are all these uncertainties around the impact of Covid-19 with potentially financially devastating consequences, clubs will probably want to hold significant financial reserves.Given the transfer window will not open before the PL resumes that is near on impossible.
Thank you. Greenwood is a massive talent but we shouldn`t overrate him that much just yet. He still has some way to go especially in physical development before he can reach Sancho`s level and like I said I`m 100% sure he`ll end up as a CF anyway not a wide player.You're comparing chalk and cheese in terms of development.

Greenwood is certainly exciting as a talent and his progress has been great thus far. But to insinuate comparison to Sancho just yet is presumptuous.
I’m aware you can, but we haven’t, because the season is not over. I think it is a significant point because, for the season to be over - football will need to have returned, or clarity provided on the future of things. So if we are only going to spend once the season is completed, there is a certain level of clarity required for us to get to that point.You can do business anytime you want.

One is a world-class creator, the other is a seriously talented finisher. Their abilities complement each other perfectly. Somewhat similar to Haaland and Sancho, but Haaland's goals come more from his positioning and movement while Greenwood still needs some work/experience in this area of his game.Thank you.

Just seen the lineup and he’s on the bench again. Same team as last week that hammered Schalke so no surprise I guess.Seen a lineup online suggesting he will. If so I’ll definitely be watching today
Ah that’s a shameJust seen the lineup and he’s on the bench again. Same team as last week that hammered Schalke so no surprise I guess.
According to @Rozay we've got 90m in cash + 150m credit. So here's what I thinkSpend your cash reserves and credit line on player purchases before the PL has even resumed playing. What could possibly go wrong?
That was Sancho at his best. The simple touch to get past the defender in the middle and then the simple pass for assist.He's so deadly on the counter on that right side, nice assist.
Then we are idiotsDon't see him moving this summer. We won't cough up the price they would want, and they won't budge on the 100m+ price tag.
The reason why he's not starting for them at the moment could transfer/contract related maybe? I reckon he's moving this summer. Woodward will offer the asking amount anyway, he'll understand how good of an investment it is when you're thinking in the long term, he'll see this summer as an opportunity.Don't see him moving this summer.
