Nah it is enough to watch games closely. Maybe you should make an effort next time you watch a game live, then you can observe the behaviour of players on the pitch

If people think we're not in for him and there's no real other strong links currently, then you can 9/2 for him staying at Sporting.
perhaps, but my point was is it worth a £70m transfer falling through if he breaks a leg or does his knee ligaments in for the sake of a nice goodbye for Sporting?
This is the guy I want here, he looks quality
Breaking News - it's not close at all.
Bravo good sir, bravo!
Di Marzio seems to have a completely different definition of the word 'close' compared to most people, the fecking donk.
This was never going to progress much until after Sunday. Keep calm everyone.
Maybe Ed is stipulating that we have to sign Maguire first, and then sell Lukaku, and get Dybala, and it has to all be done one at a time, and in that order, and if not it won’t happen.
Actually that’s probably exactly what will happen and he’ll be able to save money.

Personally I don’t think we are going to hear anything further about this deal till after their cup final against Benfica on Sunday.
Sure it can, I've spent years making sure I don't make personal judgements about people I've never interacted with or have any idea about. It isn't difficult.
And in fairness, rightly so. Fans kick off when a player looks to be engineering a move away. Pogba only had to say that maybe it's time for a new challenge and he was public enemy number one. What about the other way around?
It's a pretty big deal, to be told in a reasonably quick time frame that actually, you're employer doesn't want you and you may need to uproot your life, including a partner and go to live somewhere else. If it comes out of the blue, you're going to need.a bit of time to digest that.
I think it's pretty reasonable that the initial reaction is along the lines of 'eh? No, I'm happy here.... can I have a word please?'
My apologies to the other Portuguese Posters you are all pretty good in fairness .It might come as a shocker to you all but...I am in fact a Sporting fanwho would have thought?
Also appreciate the post! there are other good Portuguese posters as well!
Because we don’t want to sell the best player by far in Portugal for a discount. If we need money we have other players we can sell.
He is going to be the biggest transfer in Portuguese league history because if he is sold we will receive 70M up front and not 30M with installments

Oh, and you are of the opinion that the majority on here will adopt that kind of thinking?
Change the Caf, change the world!
No but its better than 'if you can't beat them, join them' mentality.
You're moving the goalposts here buddy.
People will make personal judgments. Especially on a football forum. Get used to it. Nobody likes people preaching and then bragging about how easy this mentality shift actually is. You're not going to change a thing on here.
But, you have your opinion just like everybody else. For all it's worth, I agree with you
Nobody is paying that so at least you get to keep himBecause we don’t want to sell the best player by far in Portugal for a discount. If we need money we have other players we can sell.

Gladly!
Though personally if he is sold I think will be 60M plus add ons.
Longstaff who has under 20 games in the EPL is being valued at 50M paying 20M more for a better more proven player is not that bad especially in today’s market.
People want Sporting to give him away for “free” wrapped in a bow.
Is he better than Felix according to you?Because we don’t want to sell the best player by far in Portugal for a discount. If we need money we have other players we can sell.

Di Marzio was right about this. All that needs to be agreed is the fee, the agent fee, the wage packet, bonuses and length of contract.
Other than all that its really really close though guys, honest. Di Marzio said so. Hahahaha

Felix isn’t in Portugal anymore.
Right now? Yes. Potential wise? No
If Felix fulfills his potential then he will for sure be better then Bruno.
If we are using last season as a measure then no he is not because Bruno was head and shoulder above any player in Portugal last season including Felix.
Like I said though. Felix ceiling is no doubt higher then Bruno.
No shit.
Thanks!
Well ya that too
Ah, now, wait a wee minute. Clubs can value players however but until he’s sold for that figure it’s irrelevant.
This deal is so hard to read because part of me thinks this will really gather pace after Sunday,however the other part of me thinks Utd only saw him as a option if Pogba left and now he is staying this will go dead.
I'm so very tired of hearing about 'ceilings'.
Almost as tired as hearing about us almost making a bid for this guy all summer.

Is it just me or others agrees with this too that Bruno is more important for us as a team than Dybala?
Remind the thread why sunday?
They have a cup final with Benfica.
We definitely need midfield creativity, but we should aim to sign both, especially if Lukaku leaves.
Bruno or Bruyes?

It’s interesting to see how sporting, porto and benfica every year gets big money on selling/trading players but they are always full of debts
I'm tired of hearing this "deal close" for the last 2 months. If we are really interested what is the hold up for so long.
Midfield is a more gaping hole than false 9. But please, please, we need a top star on this team other than Pogba and De Gea. Dybala can be that, so I say we need him more despite our positional needs.
There have been several reports saying that we're focused on the Maguire transfer so everything else is queued behind that. Woody only has one pair of hands, doesn't have the luxury of a DoF and also has to juggle all the commercial deals which are the Glazer's priority
Agree completely. Dybala can play as a false 9, classic 10 or out wide (although not his preference) so having both gives us options and means we're not as reliant on one player to always make something happen. City have two players for every attacking position.
