Okay, how does one get the ticket for the hype train?
Fecking journos doing everything for clicks.
I am with you mate. And i am going to rip into the German posters on here if this goes through
You love to see it!
Waiting for the new financial quarter, this has been reported for the past 1.5 months but muppets have been ignoring it.
That's garbage. Theres no need to wait If the intent is there?? A deal could've been agreed in principle couldn't it ?
No benefit for Bvb to do so.
Spot on!
This has been discussed at length during this thread over last months.
My conclusion is Woody was banking on the BVB's fear of economic fall out from covid19 2nd wave would make them blink and accept a lower offer. That requires us to submit a very very late offer, so they have to make a pressurised decision while looking at a massive cheque sitting on there desk. And if BVB manage to resist, we are still be able to sign alternatives like Sarr or Brooks as PL/Championship window stays open for 10 days longer.
It's happening...
We’ve had a long time to prepare this bid so hope it’s a good one.
Keep posting all the way to 1500 pages!
Yes. This will be done.
So do we think the fee will be what Dortmund have demanded all along or less? I’m voting less.
That's not German. It basically says we're "preparing a bid". Nothing new.
That's too difficult for Ed & Judge.
1. they can't multi-task;
2. three transfer deals in one week is a miracle for them
I think we'll pay what they want. Which is what we've been prepared to do all window in my opinion.
Us/Dortmund have just disagreed on the structure of the payments.
This will probably be another Woodward masterstroke like the AWB deal

Woody and Judge can’t even tie their own shoelaces
Nothing to do with Woodward, Judge is the chief negotiator.
Woodward just oversees everything and gets final say.
But Judge is the man who does the negotiating
Wait, wait, wait, doesn't this mean we're monitoring the situation before we prepare to prepare a bid?
Sorry, the many stages of transfer negotiations confuse the shit out of me.
You love to see it!
When this signing gets confirmed, we have to get this term trending on twitter!
So if this is true, then there is obviously some credence in Luckhursts report last week that we want to push this into the next financial quarter.. also makes sense why it’s taken so long.
Only thing that makes me doubt this is that we’d have clearly let Dortmund know that’s what was happening and why would they insist that he was staying if this was the case

Sancho bid: Next week, this summer's big transition saga will have a decision: Will Jadon Sancho be in Dortmund or will Ole Gunnar Solskjær get his first choice?Can one of our German friends from the Bundesliga Reputation Protection Alliance please translate?

On Sunday, Dagbladet is informed that United is preparing a bid which will be sent to Dortmund in the next few days.
Dagbladet does not know the size of the alleged bid or whether Dortmund will accept this, but several British media have this weekend claimed that the bid will be 90 million pounds. In that case, it is 18 million pounds below Dortmund's alleged price tag.
Dortmund has since the alleged deadline of 10 August claimed that Sancho will be in Germany, but Dagbladet has received confirmation from several sources that the clubs have still been in negotiations after the alleged deadline expired.
Therefore, United will still believe that there are both opportunities and time left to sign Sancho, Dagbladet is informed. This despite the fact that there are only days left before the window closes on October 5.
Solskjær himself is said to have told Sancho that he expects the transfer to go smoothly, while Sancho himself is said to have expressed that he wants to join United.
Apparently so.
@Zoo beat me to it. Nothing new in this article in my opinion. But it’s on.

Ever since the alleged deadline of 10 August, Dortmund have claimed that Sancho will stay in Germany, but Dagbladet has received confirmation from several sources that the clubs have nevertheless been in negotiations after the alleged deadline expired.
Therefore, United will continue to believe that there are both opportunities and time left to sign Sancho, Dagbladet is informed.

To keep the interest in the transfer going? Really have no idea, but if it is to do with the financial quarter, then surely Dortmund would know thats what we were doing.
Also makes sense as to why we've not briefed that we're done and moved on. We shall see this week, but things seem to be heating up tonight it seems with the reports coming out (as sketchy as they seem at the moment)
So the credibility being Dagbladet have close ties with OGS or his people, hence that is their source?
Howard has spoked
Yep
Choo fcuking choo.
If it's true, and we're putting a bid in, we finally get to see just how much COVID has affected them, as even if it's £90m or close to €100m, then i doubt they'd reject it. Thats a fair whack to compensate for what they've lost due to COVID. Lets see i suppose
Lots of sources saying the same thing, not the usual British brief sources though.
They will say "in Germany" there's no news so shut the feck up.Can one of our German friends from the Bundesliga Reputation Protection Alliance please translate?

As I’ve insisted all along. We will pay exactly what Dortmund has asked for.
As soon as Utd briefed James Cooper that there would not be a last minute desperation of paying the asking price like they did with Bruno and Maguire....I knew straight away that’s exactly what we would do. We are shit at negotiating. We are shit at bluffing. We pay what you want. Name your price and we’ll pay it. This nonsense that we can’t afford a player is exactly that, nonsense.
Maybe some truth in the October 1st date then
