I can't wait for the day when we don't have to picture Woodward at all... ever again!I can even picture woodward with a pipe in his mouth and a long beard saying that
Yep, Bayern know it as well.100% renegotiation tactic.
As great as Goretzka would be for us and for the Premier League, he is not going to leave Bayern.
Wasn’t the same said about Kroos?A German playing for Bayern Munich? Ya, he’s going nowhere
He's comfortably a tier above Saul.How does he compare to Saul?
I've not seen enough of either to make an informed decision but know how highly Saul is rated.
I think only Camavinga is moving on this window and others possibly signing a new deal or running down their contracts. Except Rennes other clubs could absorb the impact would be my guess.Impossible as selling clubs also want to cash in, especially in covid market.
Perez probably thinks after super league fiasco, he can still outsmart everyone on the market. If he'll gets one player for free from that list, he can already consider himself lucky.
Yep, what I've read is we've made him an offer and he likes it. Come January he might well be ours for next summer.If you look at the reports it says for 2022. Isn’t that when he’s out of contract? If do, smart by us. Not one for this summer
Well, doesn’t mean you can write it off this summer. We probably prepared an estimation for his personal deal and looking for how much the player/agent want first. And then if we sell Pogba this summer, we might use the money we got from selling Pogba to sign Gortezka. If we don’t sell Pogba and Pogba doesn’t sign a new contract then we will lose Pogba for free next year but at the same time we might get Goretzka for free as replacement.If you look at the reports it says for 2022. Isn’t that when he’s out of contract? If do, smart by us. Not one for this summer
He'd definitely get into the first XI.Non starter.
He's better than both of them combined. Rice might be better defensively though, as Leon likes to go forward quite a lot.Would be a dream signing. Much better than Rice or Neves.
I normally wouldn't jump on the train, but recent history with Bayern has shown other players unwilling to accept 'low-ball' contract offers and running them out.
We're offering him a contract based on him potentially running out his contract.
No because we won’t have spoken to him and offered him a contract. We will have spoken to his agent and said “sure, I reckon your player could get around £10m a season with us”.Serious question...but is this not tapping?
I personally think we don’t have enough budget left to purchase this summer so we are being smart, let him run down his contract and offer him a contractWell, doesn’t mean you can write it off this summer.

Might be our position in a negotiation with PSG too; yes, we could lose Pogba for free, but we could also replace him with a great bosman player. It gives us a stronger hand.I'd be content if summer 2022 we lose Pogba on a free and pick this guy up on a free to replace him
Sounds like a bad idea. Pogba is probably worth more and why should we wait instead of progressing with building?I'd be content if summer 2022 we lose Pogba on a free and pick this guy up on a free to replace him
And we need that more. Rice is good for parking the bus or controlling the game, but our weekness is to break down teams.He's better than both of them combined. Rice might be better defensively though, as Leon likes to go forward quite a lot.
Even speaking to an agent is tapping up. Any communication with a representative of the player, or the player himself, without permission from the club is considered tapping up.No because we won’t have spoken to him and offered him a contract. We will have spoken to his agent and said “sure, I reckon your player could get around £10m a season with us”.
What?Sounds like a bad idea. Pogba is probably worth more and why should we wait instead of progressing with building?
Why? Thiago and Alaba have just left Bayern that's proof that players will leave Bayern for new challenges/better contracts0 chance this happening.
