By the way, in an interview last year Rybolovlev spokesman said that Porto was the example and that they wanted to be a FC Porto for luxurious players.
 
We've messed up and are now out panic shopping but to be honest I don't give a shit I'm just glad something is being done.
 
That's what I was thinking, why don't we just take the safer option and buyout Griezmann. Martial is a promising youngster but his goal return hasn't exactly been phenomenal.

Maybe, just maybe Griezmann wants to stay where he is.

We can't just bid for players and expect the player to drop everything and move to us.
 
I hope he gives Rooney a run for his money, as he's too comfortable. Maybe then, he'll come good, but I wouldn't bet on it.


Rooney's place will be in no more or less danger whether we sign this kid or not.

Not every player needs competition to perform, Rooney is just going through a really bad patch whether he comes through it or not will have little to do with us signing a 19yo kid from france who's played mostly on the wing in his career.
 
If it is anything over 50m then Ed and LVG should go in a psychiatry for the rest of their lives.
 
Holy shit. This will be a great signing.. for the future! That said, he can still provide now but he's got great potential.
 
This screams of someone being about 3/4 the way down the list of players we actually wanted. Exactly the same as the fellaini mess. We can't be ridding ourselves of all our attackers and place our hopes on rooney and some unproven 19 year old.
 
£54.5m (75m euros) is feckin stupid.

Thats close to the figures established world class players go for.

BBC says its is 36.6M GBP.. Probably around 50M euros
Far more likely but still rather high imo
 
36m is ok. Thought it was 55 or something. Just came here to write that de bruyne and griezmann would have been a steal for 56m compared to this martial fella.
 
That's a lot of money. I'm convinced Lacazette wouldn't have cost a great deal more and he's more established at this stage.
 
And that's when the Glazers are stingy.
 
Why have I never heard of him?
I am quite sure no one has, but it sounds good to diss him, slap LVG and woody and claim panic buy.
We are very close to a team structure of Ajax when LVG was there. Some serious young talent supported by experienced players. Just hope the youth gets a chance.
LVG is certainly putting his head on the block. Love it. Can't knock someone for sticking to their principles whether you believe in them or not.
 
'We could have gotten Bale,Griezmann,Muller etc for that amount'...do they want to come to United though?
