We should just buy the whole fecking club it would make transfers so much more easy and we get a feeder team.
Ander Herrera is a Manchester United Player!

Actually, that does sound like a sensible timeline.
Its so freaking funny. Atletico wumming us
Bilbao are wumming us too!
Its done, they are just wumming . I like it though.
Because they are not acting like a pub team on Twitter. The transfer is going through no matter what, there is nothing Bilbao can do to stop that - they are just being a massive pain in the ass for the sake of it. We have probably set the wheels in motion with the Spanish FA - which is why we have probably taken him to Carrington and Bilbao has feck all of a say in it.
Do you know who Bilbao are and their reputation for selling players
I think that it was a waste of time to make the bid, like I said it was nothing but a formality.
Yes i do, it doesn't take long at all to make a bid in an attempt to save yourself a lot of hassle and potentially quite a bit of money down the line and any business person worth his salt will do so.
Bilbao's reputation makes no difference whatsoever so you can shove your laughing smily up your arse
Whatever, tuck yourself up in your megastore kit and furnishing set. I'm sorry I insulted poor Woody.
You can see right now what they think of our attempt to make a bid for one of their players. They're laughing at us.Yes i do, it doesn't take long at all to make a bid in an attempt to save yourself a lot of hassle and potentially quite a bit of money down the line and any business person worth his salt will do so.

What a classy bloke. Munich insults.
How do they manage this with EU law, etc? Doesn't it fall foul of discrimination/restricted trade and stuff?
Its like some stoned students are running Bilbao twitter account.
One thing's for sure. By going so public, Bilbao have pretty much burned their bridges with the player. He was head-wrecked enough by the fiasco last summer. They'll have pushed him past the point of no return with all this hooplah.
Unless im mistaken, its against the law to have a player fly to another club and do a medical etc etc without the permission from his team?
Athleti just saving face for the announcement from us later...

Cautious, your wish may come true.
Always wondered that. People call Zenit a racist club, but the true racist club in Europe are them. But it happened for so long that it's considered a tradition.
Why? I's exactly the opposite, it's stupid not to have medical, because the time constraints. United need to close the deal as soon as lawyers will give them green light, so all personal details and medical should already be in the bag. It's like that for any type of these deals.
Ill help you out, the answer was number 2, that was the more stupid choice and you wouldn't be a very good business person if you went for it.
Because the club have follow the rules, we have to do a medical, since Herrera gave the money and the document to the LFP monday. You can't do that without a medical.
And it's not a transfer, it's a contract breaking, United don't have to reach an agreement with Bilbao, the club tried to, failed and took the other road.
The last 6 pages are hilarious, some of you are such drama queens. Brilliant.
Agree.
I think you're right. I don't believe we would have gone back for Herrera without being prepared to go the release clause route. Nor do I believe that Herrera and his agent would have risked getting involved unless they were confident it would take place.
I put twitter notification of Man Utd's twitter on my phone last night, hoping I'd see a confirmation tweet. I see nothing except the "Valencia sent off.." I go on twitter only to find our bid has been rejected ffs
exactly. Not sure why it's so hard to fathom?
Karma
That guy has even posted a picture with some 'old scarf' Cheilini has on his shoulder..
I would have choose the first one too, but none of them are "stupid".
The first one is more interesting because it can spare you a lot of time but also allowed you to keep a good and respectful relationship with the other part.
I still think this will be done by tomorrow, hopefully
Who cares? They rejected it so it didn't work but if you didn't make the bid then you wouldn't be doing your job properly. The fact they are laughing is totally irrelevant to the business involved in conducting the transfer.
How so? It's not like a normal company rejecting job applications based on provenience. It's a football club, they chose which players they want to represent them.
Well I believe all this is just SOP in order for the club to show the fans they are fighting to keep players. The player and the club both probably already accept that with the buy out clause in place, he will eventually leave. Only a question of when. I doubt the players are unhappy about it. More likely, they know and accept what is going on as necessary politics for the club. All of them are of Basque origin and have Basque pride, after all.
I gotta agree with you. This sounds like a likely timeline. Now it's just a question of paperwork and taxes. I hope there are no glitches there.
What a classy bloke. Munich insults.
What a low life, I had to report it. Made my blood right boiling.
They do not negotiate with teams. Their stance is pay the clause or nothing.
I'm one of those who never believes a deal is done until it has been officially announced, with a picture of the player holding up his new Man Utd jersey.
Having said that, if we have indeed went so far down the road with Herrera, AB's position now is just posturing. If we use Javi Martinez's transfer to FC Bayern as some sort of case study, release clause in Spain is treated as a player breaching his contract unilaterally. It is not an amount by which the club has no right to turn down. The player has to buy out his own contract (which co-incides with reports of Herrera submitting the money on his own). Once the contract has been bought out AB will no longer have any rights on the player.
tldr - AB can reject as much as they want, as long as Herrera buys out his contract as agreed with the minimum release clause, it means moot.

So, you go down the buy-out route and get the player, costing more money in taxes etc. Then the other party come out and say they would of just accepted the bid had you made it. Your telling me thats not dumb?
Those players would have realization somewhere else in this case. Imagine if you are a talented youngster that presumably yes you have been given chance to play in La Liga for Bilbao, but as soon as some other club come knocking you will know that they won't sell. It happened with Martinez now with Herrera and probably to Muniain.
Or either way the players will try to have a release clause as small as possible in order to get a chance to continue with their careers elsewhere...
Not sure their own fans like the false hope.
I'm not saying I agree with the EU, but the law applies whatever the business. It's discriminatory under EU law I would have thought.
Some posters have had a nightmare in here. Total meltdown.
Well this one got weird since I last checked in last night...
This has to be the first time a club has started trolling over a transfer. I'm really starting to feel for woody. He just can't catch a break!
