People are such drama queens. Who cares what the fee is, we need an attacker and French football watchers do agree that this guy is full of potential.
The way people go on about transfer fees...! Strewth.
Would people prefer to get somebody who's only 80% of the player, but for half the price? Maybe Mane for £20m? Of course not.
United need to buy footballers who are good enough for where we want to be. That means that there are only a handful of players in the world that we should be targetting. If paying huge fees is what it takes, so be it.

Well he was 17, what did you expect?
Lyon fans demanded the board to be sacked and signed a petition to get him to stay.
That should speak volumes.
We need to get a grip and stop being hysterical about the "fee" until everything is all sown up. We have already seen how much the media loves inflating the prices United pay for whatever self gratification they get, the BBC's continued insistence on a 1:1 EUR-Pound exchange rate in Depay's transfer being such one obvious case. The club is not run by complete idiots you know 
So is he another David Bellion/Memphis Depay? 
Adidas are paying for him, aren't they?
Cheers lads, thats reassuring.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not questioning the lads talent. I just think its absolutely insane money, and stinks of panic buying at the last minute.
We've been scammed by Monaco. Unbelievable stuff. This guy costs more than Sanchez, Hazard and Ozil. Shocking bit of business by United yet again.
We're so gullible when it comes to transfers. I'm sick to death of being ripped off by smaller clubs, fecking rediculous. Whether we're buying or selling we ALWAYS get scammed. Bloody joke!
Serves our right for leaving it so late.
So, how on earth is this lad going to get a game? Wayne Rooney is undroppable, remember? Are we playing 2 strikers or what?

Rooney's going to be our ball-playing CB alongside Smalling. Duh.
What the hell was wrong with Welbeck? Do our people at Old Trafford really know what they are doing?
The more I think about it there is nobody great to buy maybe better trying to get next big thing but if he turns out to be shit LVG is screwed. You look at Ajax though Davids Kluivert Seedorf at young ages, he knows what to look for in youth.
Big fee but it must show LVG rates him hugely. His signings so far have been astute.Going to trust the manager on this.

I said this in another thread and feel free to quote me on this: Everyone complaining about this fee will consider it a bargain in a few years. He'll be huge for us (assuming he signs).
Imagine the outcry if we'd signed Neymar for big money at 19.....wish we had now though

The Welbeck who is currently tearing is up at Arsenal, aye?
Was Mendes invovled? That would explain a lot.. We need to stop dealing with the fecker.
If this guy is any good, he'll run his contract down and sign for Madrid in 5 years

Let him play before judging the pricetag, because he could end up being worth every penny to us. It seems like a lot, but transfer fees are insane and money isn't an issue for United. Hopefully he's the right player for us.
I meant that the cost of a top fotballer has increased more than regular stuff which is used to calculate the inflation rate.
Imagine if Chelsea or City stepped in at the last moment and snapped him would be too expensive then would he?
I'm excited.
I'm excited.
Isn't he injured for months now?
To paraphrase Jonathan Wilson's recent tweet, why quibble over a couple of million for Pedro, and then pay £36M for Martial. No panic buys, eh Louis?
been injured for ages
It was a goal, somebody posted the youtube video on a previous page. Clever edit though.
He left because Monaco gave 10m for a 17 year old basically, so Lyon couldn't say no, though the fans hated it and they knew he had loads of potential.
The fee seems to be the only talking point about him.
Point is?
Wow! When did Ronaldo change to number 7 at Madrid? I missed that!
He wasn't good enough?
Did we though? Were we interested? The papers said we were but they also said we're buying Neymar, Bale, Muller, etc.
Lad on the SI forums Man Utd thread is saying the fee is £25m, including addons, but I can't see those numbers being reported anywhere at all. At that price he'd be a pretty excellent transfer, I suppose.
We signed Ronaldo for £18m then sold him to Madrid for £80m. This game is kind of fun actually, what was Bale's mark-up?
Wait, I've just realised he's a Mendes player? Why the feck are we going near that fecktard again?
If he does well, he'll be off to Madrid at the age of 22 for half of what we paid for him. Horrible move. Why can't we just forget Mendes players once and for all? Don't want him now.

You really are a muppet. You should put your phone down until the window closes, you sound like your about to burst into tears
Hah. I'm puzzled why would someone go with editing that?
Never seen him play, after watching youtube compilations of him I can honestly say i was more impressed by Berba's touches than Martial.
I hope he turns out to be the gem many people think he is.

My mother-in-law said it is £28M.
Where do you think the money from the gates,season tickets and the megastore goes to?
And he was bang average before he was injured.
