It may just be his opinion. It's not exactly an out there view.
Dont the agents get like 5% of the player's wages anyway?
I was very much joking
This thread is a laugh, but I'm still in the no-chance-campHe obviously doesn't like us, but his logic is completely skewed. How are we ever supposed to get out of trouble if highly rated young players won't sign for us?
Will they fall so far under like us? Like when Fergie retired
Maybe... but he is on astonishingly high wages at the moment. They'll have a lot of money to reinvest when that happens
It might end in tears, but muppets never stop.I think people are afraid that this will all end up in tears and pain. They can’t stop thinking about it even if they want to and this thread is a constant reminder that it could be happening. They are torn, there’s an internal struggle going on and they are posting negative stuff so that the muppets would start thinking logically and stop acting like this is done. But little do they know that there’s no logic in muppetry and the pain, tears and joy are just another day in the life of a muppet. Here’s to all the muppets, let no one stop you

I think that's a bit outdated now. Agents acting for players should be paid for by the players but it seems to have shifted to where the club seem to pay them. Not sure how it came to this.
What if De Ligt likes united more than any other team outside his country? Can he still say that?
Okay, we can offer good deals. But hold on a second; we are Manchester United. We are the most famous club in the world, we have a rich history, we have a huge fan base, we have great facilities, we have on of the best footballing setups in the world and we have had some poor years recently. The last part is not the end of the world. It’s not defining us as a club.
Where did you get that from? Absolutely no way we are paying that.
Possibly, but I’m not sure even at that age players aren’t thinking a bit that they’re only 1 tackle away from their career ending. One 4 year contract of this size sets him, his kids and his kid’s kids up for life.
It is not true, how can we refuse to pay De Gea that money yet give it to a 19 year old boy.
I haven’t read the article but I feel the same. For all the talk of rebuilding, most of of us are still getting into muppet mode to pander to Mini Raiola’s demands. Our wage structure is broken. I would be happy if we signed him for £200k a week but £350k will do irreversible damage on who we attract. This isn’t a joke. Once the glazers and Woodward make the signing, other players will demand more.
I think the Mirror wrote that bs.

From the twitter post from the last page. I know it makes no sense but seeing that money would be the only reason why he would want to join this current United side, who knows.
I don’t think he’s guilty of bias but he is guilty of lacking a balanced view on the matter. Money is a factor in every transfer but if you consider the players age and career path then moving to Utd now makes sense. He’s 19 years of age - he can go to Utd and play in a league he’s always admired and would suit him for the next 5 years and still move to Barca in his prime thereafter.
If we had brought in an elite manager (I didn't want Mourinho but he is an elite manager so it made sense that big names would be attracted) then fair enough, I could buy all of that, the rest of what you say is absolutely true. We don't, we've taken a massive punt on a guy with no real CV so not only would he be joining a weaker team than he's currently playing for but also trusting his development to a coaching set up who have no evidence of being capable.
You think Mbappe is on £50k a week? What about Felix or Sancho? Will they be happy on £60k a week when they leave their teams?

It's happening!!
If anyone with a shred of knowledge of the game had been at Utd after this game Utd would have signed this kid for 30m . He was so good in this game. The club is run by baboons.
This is done dealio!
The sky source is Guillem Balague......
It must be sad to be Sky Sports. They have no credibility what so ever.
Sky sources?
Ever thought that maybe the kid wasn’t interested in leaving at that point?
I'm obviously not saying that they should be earning £50-60k a week, but 350? That's for the real superstars. Neither De Ligt, Felix or Sancho deserve anything over £200k.
