He isn't talking in pound, it's an italian article for italians. And I missed that article.
Paulo Dybala

I think it's 60/40 he goes to you now. Would be a great signing and would mean expectations of a PL and CL charge in my opinion.
That said I do feel there's something messy going on behind the scenes with Dybala, agents and image rights. I'll be interested to see what gets agreed on in the end but it is looking like you could pull it off.
Delighted for the spurs guys on here really as for so long you've dipped the big names. Now it's like all those Christmases coming at once!
Tottenham have given up his images rights. Manchester United would never give up image rights , it's glazers buissness model
The apologists on here are pathetic. They are part of the reason the club gets away with its managed decline of the playing squad.
We are in for an extremely painful season
Alli takes the bench easily.
I responded to why I do think that money is an issue. We've lost top players before. What we usually do is move to other targets especially when we're desperate to fill a given role. The issue here is money. We're using Lukaku's money to balance the big hole in our finances left by the Maguire's deal.
I really can't believe we're starting a season campaign with a weaker midfield and forward line then last season.
I believe the OP was saying that money wasn't the issue on Dybala part... even though the club have attempted to paint him as the villain who was chasing money
was close for us as well if i remember, again nothing happened and it was all over BBC and Sky
Even if it's €, then that is still a €10m net figure which you disputed was never reported. I just showed you a link where it did, now you're arguing about currencies!
Article actually says above 10 million net too!
If Spurs sign Sessegnon, Ndombele, Lo Celso and Dybala, they should be in the title conversation instead of the top 4 one. It would really mean one CL spot left for United, Arsenal or Chelsea imo.
Keep dreaming it won't happen
He doesn't seem the kind to take that well.
You may doubt it but it's a fact, it's not as if United was a PLC and the financial reports public.
They never reported we were close to an agreement with the player. In fact they always reported that there was no indication Dybala was interested. This is different
If they sign him, Tottenham are going to have 3 players who have proved they can score 20 goals in a season. To put it in perspective, we have none with Lukaku going.
Honestly if we end up the transfer like this, then I hope we won't get the 4th place. Hopefully that would bring some real changes in United starting from a change of ownership.
This is rather depressing.
Dreading the title change.
Well not going to believe it until I see him with the shirt on but gotta say this is probably the most exciting transfer deadline day that I can remember. Hope it doesn't all end in tears.
This is what I don't understand. Why would players let their agents ruin their moves with ridiculous demands? The agent fees in transfers is actually a lot more unheard of than the players wages imo.
Nothing ever changes
We will get 6th to 8th and the cycle continues
We are Liverpool in the 90s
Exactly, the discussion was specifically about Dybala, other possible dealings have nothing to do with it and could still happen.
Statistics can be interpreted in a million and one ways . I know because half of my family are accountants who are pretty involved in AGM meetings.
In a few years the money will dry up and then we are just an average money machine as well!
If Spurs sign Dybala.... feck me...
I'm not dreaming, purely pointing out that this place is hysterical about twitter hacks and any sort of info as its facts, we must be in for about 30 players, and then the clubs are mugs when its not true, pure shatter gun approach funnily which is the reason we are stuck with a squad that needs gutting.
if spurs get him because they paid more money than what we were offering, or he takes less then fair play to them.. fact is too many of these players take the club for a ride.
If this goes through it would be a reality check to United and large segments of this forum
Agree. And even Arsenal have started spending. Dread to think what would have happened if Chelsea didn't have the transfer ban. Our only hope, which is a slim one, is that Liverpool is burnt out (loooooooong stretch), Arsenal still being Arsenal and Chelsea are as mediocre as their team suggests. Trying to be positive here, but it's hard when it looks like the club aren't even trying at all. Dybala might have been a new AdM for us, but atleast it would show supporters and our star players that we still have an ambition of getting to the very top in the near future.
They are not paying more money
Dybala looked at us and realised we are a shit club now and told us to pay a fortune or feck off
Sponsorships will eventually dry out, our fan base will get smaller and United will become less attractive. At that point the Glazers will have to sell out. Hopefully they will feck off and take all the rookies and incompetent people they hired with them
The funniest part of this transfer saga is Woodward taking the moral fecking highground regarding player fees when he's been behind paying trash like Sanchez, Schweinsteiger and Falcao (who have/ had no resale value) obscene money. It really is baffling.
This will be our biggest issue this season. Yes, we can't control midfield and yes, we don't have much creativity in the team, but the endless slew of missed chances from Rashford/Martial is going to be painful to watch.
I hope so, but feck me they have been here an awful long time now
We will be 7 years without a title at the end of this season and no challenge even
We became Arsenal very quickly
Try watching it happen when your team hasn't just won a major trophy and has just sold a striker who was second highest goalscorer last season and won't be replaced this summer.
Even more infuriating I can assure you.
this season we'll probably get rid of Ole and the trip to nostalgia crew. Its a start.
The money this guy would of brought in from shirt sales alone would of been more than enough to pay off those fecking agent fees.
Fek off Wudwurd
Fek off Wudwurd
Arsenal consistently finished in the top four. We've become Liverpool mate.
I can’t tell if this is satire.
I think that's the case regardless of who Spurs sign today tbh. Spurs are very much the new Arsenal in that you can almost guarantee their top 4 place
If Spurs do sign Dybala what they probably do is secure 3rd place and really should be giving a real title challenge (not like the title challenges of a few years ago an actual title challenge)
Not really sold on him as a player, so not too disappointed by this. Think he'll struggle in the PL.
