He's a fantastic player. One, along with De Ligt who has been talked about by scouts for a while. There are so many like this with potential and offered for small amounts of money. Glad to hear United linked but he's definitely going to AC Milan, because we're too late. Ben Godfrey at Norwich and Adam Webster at Bristol City are the two I'd for if we're into the whole "save money AND buy British" thing. Both would do well in the Premier League.He is 19. We don't know much about him, but hope some scout has done his job.
Who else has been briefed re. Maguire?They have all been briefed we are going for AWB and Maguire at whatever the cost. I believe we will eventually get both and all is just posturing from both the selling clubs and us

The reports are from two different people.so we have 100M budget but will go 'big' for Maguire, got it.
Yeah, state an opinion, then completely play it down.What a weird fecking tweet.
Well it's a difficult job pushing the "Ole goes British" narrative the media have created without looking like a complete arse if/when we buy someone like BrunoYeah, state an opinion, then completely play it down.
Halfway through the window it does check out though with a Welsh lad in, and two English boys seemingly lined up next.Well it's a difficult job pushing the "Ole goes British" narrative the media have created without looking like a complete arse if/when we buy someone like Bruno

Another good player for the right winger role. Since we failed Sancho we should be looking at Brooks from Bournemouth.Tweet

Except our interest in Maguire far predates it all and judging by the most recent reports it seems Bruno is more likely to be our 3rd in than Maguire. Don't get what the fuss is about either way. Loads of clubs have a core from their own country. Loads on here wants us to be more like Ajax well this is one step in that direction.Halfway through the window it does check out though with a Welsh lad in, and two English boys seemingly lined up next.
I don’t think it’s a bad thing to want that core group either. Just don’t think we’re targeting the best British talent, which makes it a risky bet.Except our interest in Maguire far predates it all and judging by the most recent reports it seems Bruno is more likely to be our 3rd in than Maguire.

To be fair, James, AWB... then i think it's obvious we want Sancho, Maguire. etc etcHaha, journalists are quick to brandish one English signing as an evidence for policy of signing British players.
You can tell that United are planning on buying British this summer by the way they're about to buy a British player. Is this a hint about future purchases also being British this summer? Probably, but also maybe not. Send tweet.Haha, journalists are quick to brandish one English signing as an evidence for policy of signing British players.
The whole "United are overpaying" narrative, which if we did switch to "cheaper, foreign options" we'd be lambasted for not signing English talent.Tweet

Watch this. He explains how Ajax operate and how they collectively help run the club.Think Overmars is the DOF and VDS is the CEO, something like that.
Either way for sure, whoever in charge there is doing a great job.
Anyone else reckon £50m up front and a 50% sell on would suit all parties?Tweet

After what happened with Peresic they can pay upAnyone else reckon £50m up front and a 50% sell on would suit all parties?
(Including fans on here).
Naive to think they won’t be in the running for top 4. They have huge talent coming back from loan. In today’s market, players coming back are easily worth over £300m.So basically all we have to do is be better than Arsenal next season for top 4.
What if they can’t, though?After what happened with Peresic they can pay up
£50m isn't going to get us a decent replacement in this market. What if they don't sell him or he runs his contract down?Anyone else reckon £50m up front and a 50% sell on would suit all parties?
(Including fans on here).
Doesn't mean we cut them some slack and give them a player for £25m less than what we want just to shift dead wood.What if they can’t, though?
It’s an expensive player to maybe not want to play.
We keep him and play himWhat if they can’t, though?
