Mainoo is priceless at this point. We'd be mad to sell an 18yr old who can play at this level, and cost nothing, for any money.
Especially as United have been absolutely horrible at buying midfielders for about 20 years.
Any player in our squad you won’t sell for 100m?

Honestly, no.
Mainoo comes the closest to unsellable. But I'd probably sell such a young player for that much. There is no guarantee he will continue his meteoric rise past this season. I think he will, but even if he does, 100 mill for such a young, unproven player is too good to turn away.
Hojlund, too. It's not someone I'd want to sell, but for 100? Good striker, but I'd honestly value him at around 50-60 if he wasn't playing for us. When we bought him, I think a fair price would have been 40-50.
Sounds a bit harsh, perhaps. Just trying to be economical. I really like both of them.

Martinez, Mainoo, Garnacho and Höjlund.
Højlund, Mainoo, Garnacho, Martinez (assuming he’s not crocked now).
Absoloutly not. 100mil? Any of them. Hojlund has an argument though.
once again i agree with you
100m is a shitton of money. Im with SWE-Chucky Martinez, Mainoo, Garnacho and Hojlund i would hate to see them leave but 100m? not an easy decisionThey could all go
Yeah saying a player like Mainoo is easily found when we watched Enzo and Caicedo go for a combined 210m between them is insane
Mainoo and Hojlund are unsellable currently. Taking the cash for either is a small club mentality. Garnacho is borderline, but yeah can probably be tempted.
The rest? Yeah feel free to take them for even half that.

I admire your naivete if anybody seriously thinks there's a single player in our squad that anybody in the world, Saudis including, would offer 100M for.
Mainoo is a great young player but nobody in their mind is going to pay more than 60M. Hojlund maybe 70, same for Garnacho. Murtough and Arnold are the only morons in the world who were paying double the price for players. We can't sell Antony even for 40, I bet. And I doubt anybody will pay even 50 for Rashford, because nobody wants to pay his insane salary and he is too arrogant to take a paycut, of course

I’d say I’d let them all go but the way we piss away money on transfer fees I’d say no to Garnacho , Hojlund and Mainoo
For £100M they can pick two players. Any two of them.
Hojilund and Gernacho. In a few years everyone is going to cost 100m, it will be the going rate for average players.
No ones gonna even pay halve of that on our players. They go of form aswell… you could argue last seasons Rashford was closer to 100m. This seasons he’s about 10m. Antony won’t go for anything over 40m, lot of money lost. We’ll be lucky to get 10m for Martial. Maguire and Mctominay we can probably get 30m for both. The only ones we shouldn’t sell is Mainoo, Højlund, Garnacho and Martinez.
We haven`t got any players that we would get £100 M for. We wouldn`t get anything like that even for the good young players like Mainoo or Hojlund.
I couldn't bring myself to post since watching that shit show yesterday. Take those shirts off lads. Never put them on again. Your not good enough for my club. Especially Mr rashford. The way he ducked out of challenges was disgraceful.
I’d take £60m for Martinez at the moment, same for shaw. They seem to be made of glass.
agree with the other three as they, at the moment, seem to have a big part to play in our future
Mainoo and Hojlund
I’ll second this
Any player in our squad you won’t sell for 100m?
The question should probably be which player in the squad could you sell for a 100m
The question should probably be which player in the squad could you sell for a 100m
Would it even matter? Would we trust the club to spend the 100 million properly to reinvest in the squad? Decades worth of money down the drain doesn’t fill me with any confidence.
I can appreciate you don’t like Rashford but selling him for anything over 20m is just fecking nuts. I’d be okay if we sold him but given his profile and performances last season alone, I’d be demanding 60-70m minimum. And for someone like PSG, losing Mbappe. That’s easy money. If we were to sell him to PSG, I’d expect, in reality, something like 75m plus another 15-25m in add ons.
To get him off the books I would be fine with most fees to be honest. It's not just the fact that he isn't any good, it's that he actively makes us considerably worse as a team by doing nothing every game, yet HAVING to be selected still for some reason. If he's not here, then he can't play, then we don't have to play with 10 men every game and we improve. Almost worth paying someone to take him tbh.
If anyone was to pay anything like £75m for him then they should be sacked immediately.
I guess Hojlund, Garnacho and Mainoo would be the only ones I'd be disappointed to see go because at least they have youth on their side such that they could turn into elite players.
The rest of our squad ranges from not good enough, injury prone, too old/past their prime, and terrible attitude problems.

Any of the players can go for that price, but wouldn’t let John Murtough go for any money, feel like it’s just about to click for him
He scored 30 goals last season. Clearly he’s a good player. Potential attitude issues notwithstanding. There’s always been tons of knee jerkism surrounding him. Overrating of him when he’s playing well, and straight up abuse of him when he isn’t.
He’s spent his entire professional career under one dysfunctional regime after another. I think it’s inevitable that he’s picked up some bad traits, and I think the ship has probably sailed on him ever reaching his full potential. But there’s a sense of overreaction about everything he does amongst the fan base.
Shaw yes, he soon 29 and has a horrible injure record - barley any full season while Martinez for the first time picks up one and is like 3 years younger and would be a lot harder to replace.
Agree with this. All of these are talented, hard working, likeable players. They show potential and would be hard to replace. Even if you could replace them for 70 mill each, it’s just not worth the trouble.
Mainoo, and that is it on hopes alone.
Definitely an unpopular opinion but Im not very high on Hojlund, I fear he will fall flat and become incredibly inconsistent

Mainoo would be the only one I would be trying to keep if 100 million was on the table.
Everyone has a price.
But as good as Mainoo and Hojlund are , Nobody's paying 100m for them.

i agree but to be fair very few think that's realistic, it's more a "what if" scenario. As I said before I would hate to see certain players leave but 100m is a lot and it would be worth to sell anyone at that price most likely.
Yes, thats why I added Martinez to that list. Today youngster from Portuguese league cost you 100m-110m euros after 1, max 2 good season and at the age of 19-21 years old. So gambling Martinez, who can have 6-7 season left in him for 20 years (or 21, even if would love Silva from Benfica - but not for the cost of Martinez, everyone else are upp for grabbing) who has played 1 good and 1 great season in a mid ranked league with really 4 hard games every year, 2xSporting & 2xPorto, the rest of the games the barley need to focus at the defense at all. So i would like to see him in the Euros before making an decision on him (and Joao Neves) to see how to play with higher pace, more competition, their moral, how the handle some of the best teams and players in the world - and because the both have clause, so the Euro would not effect the price (i think they have around 100-110m euros).
I’ll sell all of them for 100m
Our next Captain....Harry Maguire.
Leaving aside Mainoo, Garnacho, Martinez and Hojlund I doubt the rest are worth £100 million combined.
Considering the lack of even quality strikers in world football never mind world class ones the fact that Hojlund is showing early signs of becoming a quality striker we would be mad to sell him for a 100.
I'd add Jadon Sancho for laughs given the proportion of fans that were whining that United should just pay 100mil to Dortmund to get the deal done 
I think the intention of using 100m as benchmark, instead of the term untouchable, is that every player has a price tag. No-one saying Mainoo or Garnacho are anywhere near that price range, but simply the reason that they look good and are looking better every day. So not worthwhile to replace. In fact, to replace them will cost us a bomb, and the effort to integrate a new prospect is not worthy of it, while there are half a dozen player that MUST be replaced.
We havent got any elite players. By that we could swap any of our players for a City Liverpool and Arsenl one and it would be an upgrade. Mainoo Garnacho and Hojlund may get to that level eventually, but not yet. So to answer the question I would sell any of them for £80 mill never mind £100 mill, as of today.
