I feel that’s Sanchos best position anyway. He doesn’t have the pass & power for wide roles, we see it all the time where he’s basically neutralised by a single determined fullback. In that 10 role though his excellent short passing and finishing can be fully utilised

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Big move. He's a good keeper with great feet put he'll give us restless nights when he plays as a CM

Fair play to Mount here….he’s pushed for us and hasn’t fecked about
Maybe we still go late in window for Kane,presumably you don't see either Onana or Rabiot as experienced signings then
Yeah I would love to have both but not happening
A small 100m
Yeah exactly
Something Maguire should do ASAP!!
I just don't believe this.
To be fair, if the rumors are true about us offering him 200k/week, we are more than doubling his current salary. Pretty easy to see why he would be pushing for the move.
He was always going to make more in salary after Chelsea didn't pay him these past few seasons. 24 years old, good player...he'll cost near the amount United paid for Fred.
He has already rejected 200K per week at Chelsea.

Weren't there reports that Boehly made that offer and that Chelsea pulled out of this and offered him a lower salary after the World Cup when they hired their sporting directors as they felt he was not worth 200k/week?
Pretty sure one of the Chelsea fans on this forum mentioned it recently and that is why Mount is rejecting all Chelsea offers now.
Why when Di Marzio is reliable source
Don't know, there are so many reports on his contract saga.
There was some news that he is looking for parity with Sterling and Matt Law said it's not true, then there are rumors that he was offered as much or close to what James was on.
Nope, no we are not. That's a disputed term with echoes of colonialism and not recognised by the Irish.
It is indeed a colonialist term, but if you a beef about the term, take it up with the Italians, not the British.
The earliest recorded use of the term is by an English man in the 16th century so I'm not sure what the Italians have to do with it, and I'll take it up with anyone using it, thanks.
Worried that we are still not getting traction on player sales. That is the only way we can sign more than one or two players this summer and we need at least 4 (GK, CF, 2 CMs).
Hilarious how that grifter Romano still gets away with it. An aggregator account that never credits other people's stories and pretend entire football world run their business via him. The most well connected and popular man in world sports.
If you actually pay attention to his time line and don't just focus on stuff he "gets right" you'll observe more shit on the walls of his Twitter page, thrown in the hope something sticks, than even basement level tabloid reporters would be slightly embarrassed about. No doubt he's build himself up and is a world class self promoter and he's utilised social media better than anyone.
He saw an opportunity and took it and he had the world believing he's the most knowledgeable transfer guru, in the loop of every transfer in every nation, in every language, at every club playing at every level of football everywhere in the world simply because he doesn't credit anyone else and pretends it's all his own work.

Onana and Mount pretty much are our rumoured transfer budget and we haven't even started talking about the most important position yet. CF. I think there is some traction in sales as we are close to closing these deals first. Sadly we not hearing about it much in the media.
A new keeper would be very exciting we’ve had DDG for more than a decade now.
We don’t get a top class forward we are battling for top 4 again and not coming by it half as easy. I’d go with City, Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal all finishing above us.
I must admit I was pleasantly surprised with our top 4 finish last year as had us 5th at best after last summer window. No way Liverpool and Chelsea have a season as bad.

the window opened like… a week ago. Early days
Good we should be saying this is our offer take it or leave it. 55 represents great value for Chelsea. Not so much united.
Only Kante has actually been completed so far, for a free, so Chelsea do still need to raise funds by the end of next week. Romano being typically vague about Mount being done by then so he can't get it wrong, but they do really need to get Mount sold by then for FFP reasons.
Isn’t Mount pretty average?
How does he improve the team?

How come we don’t have a dedicated thread for Mount considering he is our major established target thus far?
Sorry, but you are wrong.
OK, I'm sorry, I should have said British and Irish midfielders. Conversation over.

Excellent. 55m still too high for me but glad the club look like they may have learnt a bit of a lesson and aren't going to play silly buggers
Good.
Absolutely not - he had 2 seasons in Chelsea (not counting the 22/23 when every player in that team was crap) where he was brilliant. He improves the team by being a player who is good in tight spaces and who scores a lot of goals in open play. How many players do we have who is capable of scoring 10+ goals a season from open play ?
He is quick, is an underrated passer of the ball and he works hard.
In other words - he brings energy and goals. That is something we badly lack
Explain
Final final offer please. £55m for a guy with one year left is already crazy. That offer implies that Mount with a 5 year contract is worth £275m. Absolutely crazy valuation.
