This right here is disrespectful from Westham to both United and or Jesse Lingard.
We loaned out a player with two years left on his contract to them, said player was fantastic for them and now he has a year left on his contract.
You want the player but not enough to pay a fee for his permanent transfer but will take him on loan so we end up not getting a fee for him.
This is after making significant purchases and bids for players at other clubs.
It's either they dont value Lingard or they think we are fools. We should stop doing buisiness with clubs like West ham and Everton who feel they can always take us to the cleaners for our players.
biggest frustration is that we are only a decent (not world class) midfielder away from genuinely fighting for the title this year….
next year, real possibility of Pogba leaving, Ronaldo a year old…. And no decent opportunities to get Halland…
but we are not acting….we have sold James… all we need is to sell Lingsrd and get Neven in..
He is not a world beater but he will do a good enough job for us to challenge for the title..
I really don’t see a point in keeping lingard…. Once Rashford is back, we have enough options … Martial (I rather sell him before Lingard) is still here…

I find the obsession players have with Real Madrid baffling. Fair enough when La Liga was the strongest league but it's far from it at the moment, the Prem is the place to be. Imagine a basketball player turning down the NBA to play in the Spanish league because he prefers the weather and lifestyle.
Well, they are still the biggest club in the world after all so is it really that baffling?
We’ve nearly gone full Italian club transfer on them, you should never go full Italian club transfer, which would have been a loan with an option to buy, then payments over 5 years.
West ham have always been idiots to deal with. The Diop enquiry when Mourinho was here is another example, we were lucky Tevez wasn't actually owned by them at the time. I wouldn't lump Everton in there with them though, they've been pretty decent with us.
Think Barca still owned part of his rights whilst at Betis, which they laid Betis for the other half in order to own him outright.
Shady as feck to me.
We are by far the biggest club in England yet players still regularly prefer to sign for City, Liverpool or Chelsea over us.
Because they win things.
That's normal, you sign some players you fail to sign some players. Let's not forget we have been a complete shambles for the best part of the last 7-8 years.
I’d say that for a team that has largely won feck all in the last 10 years, we’ve beaten these teams to our fair share of players.
Means absolutely nothing
Everton paid 20 odd million for Schneiderlin and wanted to pay for Sergio Romero.
But Real Madrid could have Mr Bean in charge and be languishing in mid table and still players would flock to them. Just seems like lack of ambition to me.
Why test yourself in the best and most competitive league when you can have a holiday in Spain.
Sancho
Varane
Ronaldo
Can we stop the myth that 'top players' don't want to play under Ole please?
To you maybe; to football players looking to sign for a club...it's quite possible it does
It wasn't in response to a 'myth'. The question was posed as to why some players prefer to sign for the aforementioned clubs ahead of Utd ' the biggest club in England'.
They have coaches who are the elite of their profession. As much as I like Ole, he isn't and that's indisputable
There is that and some will play to further their ambition and some will be happy earning a good living even if it means languishing in mid table
Watching Transfer news on Sky Sports since 7 am this morning and will be hoping we bring in the holding midfielder we desperately need. Then let's see us win this league. Fingers crossed for the right one. Tchouameni or Camavinga.
Camavinga signed for Real Madrid yesterday so he's out.
Didn't hear that . Hope it's Tchouameni then.
Nothing on message boards or social media to suggest anything. He's ahead of Camavinga in his development so would have made more sense to go all out for him
So signing for Real Madrid automatically shows ambition regardless of where they are at? Does the same apply to signing for AC Milan who are also a massive club?
Yet statistically Oles start is up there with them, bar one thing; silverware.
Which players we've truly been in for have signed for them last few years?
They are a historically big club, so a lot of these players probably saw their idols playing for them. They won 3 consecutive CLs just a couple of years ago. They pay massive wages, and the city/weather is great. What's not to like?
I wouldn't put Everton with them. They saved us with Rooney and Scheiderlin. It was our mistake that we didn't buy Fellini on time cheaper than we did eventually. Also, Lukaku' peice seems fair, judging by following the transfer fees.
Neves would be ideal but the chances feel vanishingly small
:/
If AC Milan had won so many UCL in last decade, then yes. Dont forget they are about to sign Mbappe also.
Pretty much rules out any last minute sale of Lingard that.
I was going to have a dig at West Ham for not coughing up the money they clearly had for a player that transformed their season, but I think the issue lays more with Lingard and his refusal to want to move. He seems intent on sticking around and "forcing his way into the team".
I hope to Christ we don't renew his contract to protect his value. We've seen how that plays out.
