Yeah that Bruno’s attacking output has been terrible hasn’t it. Oh and Rashford only scored 20 odd goals while carrying an injury all season, how shite!
Thats why i rate Bruno and Rashford, both quality players, but they would look even better if they played for Liverpool or City, ever since Fergie left United struggles going forward.
Literally how many weeks has it almost been done?
It’s obviously not going to get done while the Euros are on.
honestly? About 395
We struggle with the exact same things now than we did under Fergie in his last few seasons. You're talking twaddle. Our attack has improved under Ole.
Why not?The transfer can easily be announced while the tournament is still going on.Why is this always seen as a problem
.It's distracting for a player who is never playedWhy not?The transfer can easily be announced while the tournament is still going on.Why is this always seen as a problem
Nah mate, the agent deals with all that, he's been waiting for this for 12 months.
Player will want to just focus on the Euro.Why not?The transfer can easily be announced while the tournament is still going on.Why is this always seen as a problem
I'm sure he is, do you think he involves himself with all the negotiating?
Well what are we really missing here apart from him holding the shirt?
An announcement of a fee agreed a la Lukaku
Already a legend in my books
The deal can really be imminent.
he's always wanted to join us, Liverpool, Chelsea, a return to City, he would have turned them all down
Really really imminent?
really^3 imminent.
I’m not sure about Chelsea. He admitted Chelsea was his favourite as a kid.
Doesn't mean much, the likes of Sterling and Pulisic were United fans as kids, had no bearing on where they signed
What's with the thread title update? Can't see anything new from the Athletic today.
Near-completion can finally be imminent
Tantric transfer
Tantric transfer
Mmmmm.....full body transfer!
Lovely title change, that’s big day stuff that is.
click the link, the Sancho stuff is in there.
Deal is closer than close, closer than any tweeter could ever imagine.
Showing your age there
Shite from Jota.
wrong thread?
Nah, I just wanted to spread my dislike for Jota to as many threads as possible
Shite from him in every thread tbh
Closer than a wet shave with a cut-throat razor.
Yes I saw that, thanks. It's a two day old article now so old news as far as transfers go!
Several points come to mind.
We spent at least 65m on three players who made zero impact, two of whom play in Sancho’s favored position at RW.
If we’re going to save only 20m over what was demanded last year, it seems in retrospect that it would have been well worth it to spend that 20m on him than on the 65m on three players who made zero contribution.
At the very least it can’t be denied we actually had the funds to pull this off last season. But it may well be the case that the Glazers felt they needed to send a message that they will not be held hostage to a purported ransom demand.
I quite agree. He’s done nothing during this whole saga to help Sancho in signing for us. Jota out! Style it out dude, nobody has noticed. I think you’ll get away with it....
This zero contribution argument is weird. Amad scored a very important goal against Milan and has had a year adapting to the club. By all accounts he's got very bright future here and I'm for one very glad we got him. Also he was supposedly a target for Dortmund as a Sancho replacement. The other two, if we only signed people 1 season at a time it makes sense, but we don't.
Add on top of all of this we're still going to get Sancho a year later. There's literally no guarantee on Sancho's effectiveness and there still isn't. Now we will have 4 players on our books rather than just blowing our entire budget on 1.
Just hope it takes us until 2 or 3 games to realise he's yet another player who massively favours the left, and will spend most of the game trying to end up over there.

don't tempt fate.I for one think he will be a great success, but I just can't see the logic behind the argument we should have just coughed up the money.
