It's 120m euros which is £108m pounds. We usually spend around 150m a year on average.
Not true. We average 75-80m NET per season.
Not to go the whole net spent argument that certain clubs do, but last season United offloaded Lukaku too, and this summer Sanchez and his wages.
The entire Maguire and quite a bit of the AWB fee can be taken away from both those players. Although United did spend big last summer, it wasn't as big as people thought.
I went to a Benz dealership yesterday. The salesman told me the price ( which was also written on the display.) , I asked him for a 75% discount because of pandemic. He said no. I said I would not pay full price. I stood my ground. Then walked out. Proud of myself
it will be more accurate if on the display was also written
"Because of Covid situation paying cash you will get 20% discount"
Let's be honest 108 mln for Sancho is robbery.
S
From which team?
Slightly different I would think. Sancho would be cup-tied in the CL and will not want to move at that stage. Next summer is, of course, a possibility.
They abolished being Cup tied in the CL.
Wolves
Is it just me that hopes Dortmund have a shit season ? 
You don’t have to hope it. They are not gonna win the league anyway. They will have the lead and find a way to bottle it.Is it just me that hopes Dortmund have a shit season ?
Is it just me that hopes Dortmund have a shit season ?
I fear not.
This place is full of petty cnuts, it seems.
They talk a lot but the reality is that they are a feeder club. Must hurt deep down.Is it just me that hopes Dortmund have a shit season ?
That's a pretty telling brief by Dortmund
That's a pretty telling brief by Dortmund
What brief?
Ehm ... what?
Having 10.000 fans or not doesn't affect Dortmund at all. They actually planned with zero fans for the rest of 2020.
That's a pretty telling brief by Dortmund
where?
James Cooper saying he rates our chances at about 40%.
So what what are we? We haven't been interested in being Top club for years. I'd be looking closer to him before slagging Dortmund for wanting what their player is easily worth.
Hey! Peddle the propaganda or get off the muppet train. This service runs on blind optimism, not logical thinking.
Our reality at the moment is just as bad mate. Doing the hokey hokey with the Champions league every year whilst the Glazers take more and more money out the club.
Thats almost 1 in 2 chance, which if you’re being optimistic is like a 2 in 3 chance. But no one likes to think in thirds so just round up, to a 100% chance.
With sales of Smalling and Romero we will probably hit that target anyway. I don't see the money being an issue.
As long as United thinks it’s 100%. Whatever he thinks doesn’t really matter to me or us
I just ran this again and I think you’ve got a little dot and some curved lines in the wrong places but all in all, it checks out.
Also according to my maths we’re signing him for £10.80. Bargain.
More good news mate. Keep it coming.
So long fellas. This saga is running out of gas.
I find these threads on here really weird (hence largely avoiding).
Nothing has changed in weeks yet you get loads of posters popping in declaring with some strange confidence that it is 'on' or 'definetly off now lads'.
Anyway this was also useless, enjoy. Fingers crossed we get him.

Same, from Cardiff myself as well. Always been United for me, could never warm to Cardiff the club.
I see your logic but it's very hard to compare value when talking about top flight football, this kids numbers across Europe are up there with the very best and that's in comparison with players much older and established, he won't reach his peak for another 8 years, which is frightening really. So you have to factor that in as well. Plus his marketability etc which is a big aspect, especially for a club like United as we invest a lot into player marketability.
Re Pogba, I definitely would. I'm one of his biggest fans/defenders on here though.
I want to stay onboard the Sancho train but I've a horrid feeling this leaked video of the negotiations spells the end of this saga!
Who knows what the sticking point is. We’ve probably agreed to pay 120mil Euros it’s just how and when it’s paid.
Add ons probably provide United with comfort where Dortmund would rather not have them and probably happier if it’s just 120mil in instalments. Like 80 now, 20 next year, 20 the year after.
United might not want to pay 80mil upfront as they maybe have other targets on top of Sancho.
I’d love it if Ed just phoned up Zorc and was like ok let’s hash this out but judge probably deals with the face to face then answers to Ed who answers to the Glazers. Zorc probably has an overlord he has to run these things by as well.
Can you explain how Dortmund is affected by this?
Germany consists of 16 federal states, which all have their own governments and regulations & rules. If I'm not mistaken the decision to allow fans in the stadium and how many even goes down further the pecking order to the "Gesundheitsamt" (local health authority) level.
Thus, banning fans in Munich doesn't mean Dortmund being also not allowed to let fans in their stadium. That's how it works in Germany.
Yeah I imagine you're right. Lots of red tape. Get the impression United are one of the biggest pains in the arse to deal with in the transfer front.
regarding this topic, I was totally fine until Kai Havertz was signed. Sancho and Kai are in the same tier. (At worst) I had assumed that as soon as Kai's one would be done, Jadon would follow right after!
"At worst" because the "romantic" in me thought Jadon would be signed on August 7th!!!

Hope not, because that just isn't realistic.
I know we've got a lot of very dead deadwood, but bugger me I'd hope we'd have shifted a few to help things by now.
It's not now I agree. Selling 5 players for combined fee of 60m seemed reasonable 3 months ago though. Smalling alone was being touted at 20m. So 40m spread out over 4 players wasn't that unrealistic back then.
Think we know that we find it hard to shift our players due to their wages though. Anyone who is willing to take a punt on our deadwood probably wants a loan with us continuing to pay towards wages.
The key to anything happening here is in our ability to offload first......
the Smalling to Roma saga has gone on all summer as well - at one point it was all done - now looks off....
Romero - why hasn’t he gone yet?
Rojo/Jones - we just need their salaries off the books - we won’t get any transfer fees but making room re salaries is key to allowing us to pursue Sancho
However, Ed and his team are just as effective at selling as they are at buying......hence the stalemate we are in
