What are you talking about? 40mil for Varane is a steal; I would bite their hand off. He's worth 60+

My phone does that for some reason . My apologies. Genuine Question ? Why do you think Madrid are burning us do you not think its the players and agents? United are used in loads of negotiations for contracts if the press are to be believed. Or the stories could be just fabricated for clicks.

We need so much more than those two to challenge & win the two big trophies next season which must be our aim.
Look at Arsenal, for years & years all they cared about was getting a CL spot & now they find themselves 17 years without the PL & looking nowhere near ending that run & finishing 8th? miles away from winning the PL & being in the CL, I do not want UTD to go down that route.
Look at last summer's signings, Telles & VDB made zero impact & hardly played & Cavani only came good in the last 3 months of the season.
What more do we need on top of Sancho and Varane? You could argue a DM but what else after there? I genuinely fail to see which other position would need improvement
A world class striker wouldn't go amiss.
Grantet Cavani was great but how long can he keep it up, not to mention he had some injury issues.
Greenwood? Maybe.
Martial? No.
Anyway, striker could wait until next summer I suppose. Haaland would be nice.
With Sancho and Rashford on the wings you'd imagine Greenwood will score a lot playing as a No9 no? A ST would be nice but it's not a massive need(at least not now) compared to CB, DM, RW
I've yet to see Greenwood have a great game as an out-and-out no9. He's very young though so that will come.
If these three young players click it would be a sight to behold. When has that happened? A front trio, all under 24 and all from England.
Luckily thats exactly the plan
I do think we need at least one midfielder as well to be able to compete at the top.
I was scrolling through YouTube and one of the United channels had a video streamed 2 hours ago saying that we and Dortmund are now 5 mil euros apart. We've offered 85 and they want 90 + 5 mil in add ons. I know 95 - 85 = 10 and that it said 5 mil, but I'm guessing they referred to the guaranteed sum. I suppose working out a clause for 5 mil add ons won't be too hard.
No way that one of best defenders in the world is 45 mil. No way. If so, we should pay that today
Love the mental gymnastics people go through to convince themselves that a transfer is not happening.
It would be if it weren't for Murtough dealing with all the transfers. Funny how the CAF cries out for a DOF for nigh on 2 years. We get one and people seem to forget it rather quickly.
Yeah I said earlier today I reckon it will be £50 plus and probably a bit more than that, closer to £60 mill most likely.
I think we should be banging their door down with a starting bid of £50m’s
1 year left on contract , if he doesnt want to renew 45 mill. is 45 mill. more than what they'll get next year.
Unless they can drum up a bidding war for him theyd rather take that.
I would even put in a tenner myself for United. What a great deal if that price is true
He may be, but Pogba is way more marketable, and they bid something stupid for him while he had 3 years on his contract and now they're demanding 40m for Varane who also wants out with just a year left.
Tearing away from the pack, or being torn, ...
I think #IKN means I know nothing, so he's admitting he's not ITK.

Don't see a midfield signing if this indeed proves to be the case even though we still need one badly

Growing doubts about finding the money.. time to start getting worried?
Literally a bluffer. How can we not find 5m more yet are after Varane etc. How can we not find the money we offered last summer?
Scare tactics nonsense for retweets.
To be fair, Dortmund have no idea what we can or can't afford.
I just don't get why we move so slowly. Granted there is probably a lot to consider but I find it very hard to believe that anyone at the club is consistently working on this deal on a daily basis.
Isn't Jan a known Bullsh*tter? To be honest, not sure any journalist knows what's actually happening.
If you take some of the rumours as true then one of the stumbling blocks (outside of the fee), has been the length of the installments. United supposedly wanted 3-4 years, Dortmund 2.
If Dortmund don't budge on that, then it may genuinely be a difficult deal to conclude yes.
Having said that, it's all he said, she said at the moment, people drip feeding information to sources on both sides and no one really knows who to believe so obviously no one here has any idea what so ever...
Honestly looks as if people are filling in the dead air before an announcement is made after the Euros. I remember Madrid being favourites for Pogba before the Euros final with reports of late night, teary calls to Perez only for it to be revealed that the transfer was agreed to weeks before that.
Ill bet any money that its announced within 3 days of England being out and these journos won't be called out for the blatant hot air theyre spewing.
I feel sorry for the lad tbh, assuming he wants the move. Why are our transfer deals conducted so publicly? I worry that the Glazers PR machine is trying to imply that Dortmund demands are unreasonable, either way this will drag out until Dortmund tell us to F off, or the transfer window closes.
The biggest rumour of a stumbling block a couple of weeks ago was always “it’s not going to happen during the euros”
= I dont know anything
feck off
Dortmund playing the media once again.
They're pushing us to do it on their terms
who has the doubts in Dortmund?
Is it Jurgen down the pub in downtown Dortmund.
Literally nobody should pay any heed to anything any shite bag on Twitter posts
I am worried. We supposedly offered over £80m last summer despite knowing the price. We're now conveniently a good £15m below this summer's valuation, I honestly wonder whether it's all posturing from Utd, making it look like we're serious about this deal but ultimately not willing to part with the money. I have no faith in our ability/desire to do this deal.
Whos conducting anything in Public?
Only Twitter attention Whores are talking pony in Public.
I don't know, maybe because there is a major international tournament on, which the is a part of?
Just out of interest. Which club in world football, move transfers as quickly as you think they should? Name 1. Name 1 that makes transfers happen as fast as they do in football manager.

If you're going to talk about valuations BE CORRECT with your figures kindly. Mind you this was before our second offer

Fiorentina have signed Nico Gonzalez from Stuttgart.. Reported fee around € 25m
At home to Leicester where we lost 2-1
Chelsea conduct their deals efficiently and quietly, same with Liverpool. There are no long, drawn out saga's with most of the signings they make.
Most of the transfer window and the €90m was paid almost all up front. Only a few add ons were paid after the deal was complete. It was the all up front money that dragged it out. I think the numbers were agreed early.
