You need to have 80m.

He only turned 29 a few months back. Moutinho who plays for Wolves is better than any mid we have bar Pogba, and was 32 when he arrived in England with mostly experience of playing in the Portuguese league.
So this prem proven bollocks is over played..
If this was a negotiating tactic, we've just broke twitter, and it would also show that we have at least two credible journos in our pocket
Has he though? All we have right now are conflicting reports from two seemingly solid sources. The true outcome has not yet been revealed.
Weak minded folks for whom bragging/getting slagged on social media is their raison d'être?
Dani Ceballos on loan. Plus they also bought William Saliba, but loaned him back to St Etienne for another year. So Pepe + Ceballos, but they haven't addressed their shitshow of a defense.

Said a few pages back when it first broke I am not buying it... I think we are still in for him and we're waiting until he has been told to his face tomorrow when he arrives for training.
He will be told he is not wanted and to train alone.

If he doesn’t want to play here and has made that clear then there isn’t much the club can do. Offering him astronomical wages would further the perception that we don’t know what we’re doing.
Disappointing, though. As a player I think he’s exactly what we need up front.

Woodward loves a briefing.
The club tells the press exactly what they want them to know and when...
So Italian media still insisting this could happen but the likes of Ducker & Stone stating that we don’t want him now.
Personally, I’d rather just move on from Dybala. If the guy really doesn’t want to come then no point pursuing. We’ve been in this situation before.

WTF
Except it's not a source in terms of English media. If BBC reported it then United briefed them and the rest of English journalists, while Di Marizo is depending on his sources, and tbh, he has had a crap summer.
I am not buying that and personally i am amazed how half of this forum is praising Ed because of this.
It is fecking propaganda people. All our PR agents doing everything to save our face. We fecked it up. We don't want to pay him what he wants( and of course that he wants a lot ) so we released this total and complete bs about his desire. Rubbish. I can't believe that people buying this story
Ceballos on loan I think and Saliba from St-Etienne
Utd can only ship Lukaku if they lower the asking price otherwise no club is going to pay anywhere near the kind of fee Utd wants.We need to ship out lukaku. It is the best option commercially - so it doesn’t matter if dybala plays well. If he does it’s just a bonus
A top forward for 80m is quite cheap. The best forwards in the PL would go for 130-140m. Or Dybala isn't quite at that level now?
Tanc says there will be news in 15. Probably his usual self-promoting antics.
Once again, we always seem to lose the perception battle on social media and elsewhere. Some see it as unimportant but it matters as our standing as a club and the impression it creates.
They did didn't they?
I've been saying that too.
Nobody knows bar the negotiating teams and the clubs hierarchy. But considering bluffing that you are willing to walk away and make yourself weaker by doing so is a well established tactic of negotiation...
The UK is doing it right now for example, and that's on a much bigger stage than some football transfer.
Not saying that is what is happening. I am just guessing like everyone here and most of the journalist.
I'll be refreshing furiously even though I know he's a lying tart.
This will not happen.
He doesn't want to come , Woodward from the position of power wants to twist it as press says what he briefs.
The Old Lady is not pissing around!It was really obvious we weren't going to get him. It's also easy to say now but it's good because he clearly did not want to be here.
Why is the statement worded so weirdly...’Utd pull out of the deal due to player and agent demands and general sense player would be coming to Utd for the wrong reasons ‘
Why not just say we couldn’t agree contract terms.

Spot on. Top reds will tell you it doesn't matter. But top players don't take us seriously.
This is the exact kind of signing the club should not be making, the one of the reluctant player.
That's sad.
It's a classic move by Ed, dump Dybala before he gets dumped himself.
We did the same when Griezmann deal collapsed as well, and briefed the entire media we're pulling out of the deal because we're not interested any longer before the player himself announced he's staying because of their transfer ban. Woodward has used the briefs in this way all the time when the deal collapses, so of course, it's logical to believe this than Di Marzio this time. Though they may still try to sign Lukaku by offering Mandzukic or something.
Yep they did, although stones did say "As per Ducker" so i don't know if it was a brief, or going from the telegraph exclusive.
If we have walked away, so be it. We tried, it didn't work out.
If this is a negotiating tactic, it'll either work amazingly or not, either way it covers our backs. We tell Juve we're not paying the wage demands and the deal is off. Juve tell Dybala that he needs a new club or he's being benched/reserved. Dybala agent tells United we're willing to compromise, deal happens. OR We walk away, Dybala and agent stands firm and he's Juve's problem then.
Despite the fact its been abundantly clear that our philosophy on signing this year are based exactly on the reasons why we purportedly turned him down?
Ceballos on loan
That must please a lot of United fans.
Sometimes he’s trying too hard
Didn't fancy her anyway.
