When does the TeamViewer sponsorship starts? They not to keen to present him in a Chevy shirt i guess?
What the hell are these last two pages? This was not very Big Day of you all.
this is not buying a loaf of bread.
Read my post. I said at €120m - not at a ‘reduced price’. Your failure to acknowledge something so obvious is what’s bizarre.
Damn, another football thread which went into politics debate. Amazing
Insulting another member
No. My point was that I didn't know you were a moron until you came out to protect us all from "the forces of evil that are dividing our society".
Now I do.
utterly fecking bizarre. All down to #brexit. Joke!
Guys - let’s post about Sancho in this thread. Take the other stuff elsewhere.
Some terrible posts in here.
Ffs I come in here for mindless posts and I got, well, mindless posts. I like my mindless posts about Sancho at least.
Big day tomorrow.
I miss the days when the only negativity on here was people saying how Sancho was overrated or how Chelsea get their business done early.
People trying their best to be banned.
What could you expect of 200 page thread about Sancho's move? Keep in mind these 200 pages are just from the beginning of June...
Small day today
How did the club feck up? We rightly didn't buy him because the price was too high then.
What I meant is - If Utd came a week or two later with 120m and favourable structure for them, yeah, I think they would have still sold.
Just as they'd surely have accepted a bit less than their proclaimed price had you approached in time (like they're doing now).
But that wasn't the narrative that was peddled, was it. It was, the deadline is 'artificial' (duh
) and BVB will actually cave to a lower price late in the window. Which was clearly complete nonsense, as anyone who listened to what they said could have known.That's not a judgement on whether Utd should have done it, btw. The way this went now, 90m € a year later, is a good deal for Utd too, and last year with the pandemic 100m+ transfers were probably difficult to stem. So it's perfectly reasonable to not have done it.
As I said in the post that started this discussion, I'm just puzzled why Utd didn't end, but rather seemingly fuelled, the media narrative that the transfer was still on.
He is right though
Now that’s a train I can get on board!
i love that we have spent 2 pages complaining about the last 4 pages.
Could't possibly comment on that.
Because they wasted the whole of last summer in persuit of him, before panicking to wrap up most the transfers in the final week or couple days of the season.
They thought that they'd be able to haggle dortmund down and it backfired, we could have been a lot more efficient than what we showed. In the end we waited 6 months to 1 year to wrap up a player who was a target for a previous window, just like Bruno was.
So yes, Neville is right in his views for me. He speaks on behalf of many fans who aren't really excited from us finalising a player who was a target of last summer. I want to see who we get from here on.
Wake up sheeple!

the club don’t control the media narrative. My overwhelming point is that there’s a tsunami of things that are said in a transfer sage that involves United. Most of it is BS, assumption or inference.
Could also say that there were plenty of United fans on here last summer whi totally ignored what they said about Dortmund's stance. Proved right, were they not?Some reams of bullshit on here.
There were so many arguments here last summer where the German defense league fans were convinced that Sancho's price would stay at €120m euros this summer or may even go up, because a lot more clubs would be interested and covid effects would go away.
And would refuse to listen to reasonable United fans who told them otherwise that the price was going to come down dramatically over 12 months of losses for all the clubs.
Qué sorpresa, they are now not even acknowledging this anymore
That's true of course. But do you really think the club had no hand in any of the news about this last summer? I find that hard to imagine, with the way the stories by the usual suspects were worded.
Yep.
I don't understand why there's so much focus on whether the deadline was real or not. Of course it was part of negotiation and a deal could have possibly been accepted afterwards. However insisting on the deadline wasn't just to pressure United, but more importantly it was about giving Dortmund the option to reject an otherwise acceptable offer without disrespecting their agreement with Sancho.
Whether they actually would have rejected such an offer is a bit irrelevant to the purpose of that deadline.
I’m sure some stories were, but again that would have been self serving, in the same way some stories from Dortmund would be self serving for them. Just because a club briefs something, doesn’t automatically give it any credibility.
United briefed about Sancho to be honest, and to make it worse did the same the summer before that too
Hahahahaha what the feck
Politely, get the thread back on the fecking rails.
So the FA, UEFA and a ton of other football associations wants to create disruption and chaos in society by having players taking a knee, apparently. I'm glad I can come to the caf to learn how the world works. If you would've asked me 5min ago if the FA was involved with the deep state and actually run by Soros and the Clinton's I would've laughed at you, but now I know better.
With my new found knowledge I can see no other reason why this evil plan was set in motion other than to stop us from signing Sancho. Hillary has obviously been against United having a tricky right winger ever since Nani left.

He is not. He is fecking hypocrite. In many things and also in this. He and Scholes are behaving like players are bought for monopoly money. "United must sign Sancho and 3,4 other players. Ole is not backed if we don't spend 300 mil euros etc...Bla bla bla".
This is 100+ mill transfer. Yeah, i don't care for that money, you don't, Gary don't but Glazers, Dotmund, Sancho and his agent do. For every million in that transfer.
Light prejudice, meaningless arguments, etc are not needed in this holy place.
The saga has lasted 3 summers, in this the excitement of this transfers is not what it should be. He is right about that, even if you are also right about him and the other stuff
Is he? Ronaldo was close to joining Real Madrid for years before he joined them. Journalist need to report news and that's what they are doing. If Gary doesn't like then don't read it. Don't think it has taken away any excitement of signing one of the best talents of next generation.
The day Sancho signs, I will be absolutely delighted and would look forward to seeing him play for us next season. Probably watch all stupid friendlies (which I would have done anyway but it would become more interesting). I am sure Gary will too.
Yeah, agree about that
they have to spout hyperbole so they get likes and clicks. It’s the same as on here, being controversial or aggressive or argumentative gets the attention. Sensible, rational discussion doesn’t exist on Twitter.
