Sure. $150M but a 10 year contractHe's not worth 150m! Kinell.
I think 81m (given HM cost 80m so that would be harsh).
Yeah give me Mac Allister/De Jong and backup DM who has that positional senseI'm not usually fussed on how much United pay for players
But I do think they can easily get a top class midfielder for a fraction of that fee

Even if we had unlimited funds, I wouldn’t pay thatI mean he's worth what people are willing to pay at the end of the day. If Enzo Fernandez can got for 120m then Bellingham for 150m isn't that unreasonable for me. I'm not sure I'd like to see us spend it with our budget limitations after last summer though, as I'd much rather have a world class striker and make do with current midfield options or bring in someone for less.
For those wondering where this is from, this is from Romano's latest YouTube video (2:39 onwards)

Enzo Fernandez was not worth anywhere near €120m either.I mean he's worth what people are willing to pay at the end of the day.

If we had unlimited funds it wouldn't matter what we paid, so you're just saying you don't like Bellingham as a player?Even if we had unlimited funds, I wouldn’t pay that
Probably not no, but what players are worth isn't what the market is based on in reality. Bellingham is only 19 though so could easily be one of the top midfielders in the world for the next 15 years. I'd take that even for 150m.Enzo Fernandez was not worth anywhere near €120m either.
There's midfielders out there that would cost 2 to 3 times less and will deliver just as much impact if not more in the squad. That's who we should be trying to find. Its the job of the scouting department to find them. Plus Manchester United have many holes to fill in the squad elsewhere to be squandering €150m on a tweener. The last tweener we spunked that much money on was a flop.If we had unlimited funds it wouldn't matter what we paid, so you're just saying you don't like Bellingham as a player?

Born in 2007. Christ I'm old.
i've been in my fekn job longer than he's been alive.Born in 2007. Christ I'm old.
If you read my earlier post I'm not saying I'd sign him if I was us either, I'd much rather sign a top striker. My post was he's worth whatever clubs are willing to spend and if Enzo goes for 120m then Bellingham should fetch 150m. I agree there are other cheaper options who can more than deliver, but they also likely have half a decade plus on Bellingham in terms of age and aren't English which both bring premiums to the price.There's midfielders out there that would cost 2 to 3 times less and will deliver just as much impact if not more in the squad.

I’m saying just because you have the money doesn’t mean you should agree to pay for extortionate prices. Everyone should have a responsibility to try and stop prices from getting even crazier. I saw haalands agent saying he’s worth a billion quid ffsIf we had unlimited funds it wouldn't matter what we paid, so you're just saying you don't like Bellingham as a player?

I suppose that means he has a big-time agent?
AgreeNever been less interested in a player at that price tag. He can join the others for all I care. He's not worth anywhere near 150million euros.
Meh, this is not really true, or at least not necessarily.I mean he's worth what people are willing to pay at the end of the day.

Sounds right. Osimhen first choice but a question of money/ownership. Ramos the likeliest choice. Frimpong replacing Wan-Bissaka, who Ten Hag has gone from thinking is unplayable to thinkin is a solid #2 but not ideal for Antony to thrive, who he sees as a key player and one of the core starters along with Rashford (LW or #9), Bruno (too productive and hard-working not to be), Casemiro, Shaw, Lisandro and Varane.For those wondering where this is from, this is from Romano's latest YouTube video (2:39 to
United are still following Jeremie Frimpong according to Romano.

Would take a Ramos/Kolo-Muani IF our two Madrid agents persuaded their old team mate to come here for a yearSounds right. Osimhen first choice but a question of money/ownership.

I'll know we are really united when we win the next trophy and every player in the team joins ETH for a dance rather than just the ex-Ajax boys.Tweet

We'd need to sell the entire log cabin of deadwood to fund a sale for either FDJ or Bellingham.Tier 2:

— Twitter API (@user) dateBasically, we'll look to bring in a talented goalscorer regardless, whilst our ability to purchase a midfielder will depend on how our sales go.
- Incomings
- New goalscorer - known players in the shortlist:
- Osimhen
- Kane
- Gonçalo Ramos
- Mohammed Kudus
- New midfielder - known players in the shortlist:
- Frenkie de Jong
- Bellingham
- Players must be sold to fund purchases and comply with UEFA's financial sustainability rules.
- Sales will fund the move for a new midfielder
- More players to be sold than brought in next summer
- Known players for sale:
- Maguire
- Martial
- Alex Telles
Or the (cost of the) players that we bring in will be determined by how much we raise in sales proceeds.Tier 2:
