If Zaha is going for +60m Sancho is clearly worth 120mAre you so sure about that? I mean, he has pace and flair, but is he really a brilliant winger? If so, what does that make Sancho? An über-super-duper-brilliant winger?
Here's a statistical comparison between the two, for some added context.
Zaha:
Sancho:
But sure, we should sign Zaha and Grealish instead.
You're right, he was a direct replacement for Neymar. I think it took a while, with Dembele going awol but it was definitely done in the same window.
This is what I'm afraid of. What's sad is that Jason genuinely seems to want to play for us. Such a frustrating missed opportunity.
Has anything happened in the last 3 hours or are we just filling the pages out of pure excitement?
Nothing new.
Jesus.
Opposite of excitement, a lot of muppet meltdowns over absolutely nothing.
If it does work that way then Sancho is worth 60mil since Zaha will only cost 30mil this summer.
I don't recall anyone in the English media saying the deal was "close"
So the saga begins.
I don't recall anyone in the English media saying the deal was "close"
It's been reliable German media and the likes of Romano.
The article is a nonsense and there's nothing to substantiate any of the quotes. If Dortmund had of said that it would be all over the place wouldn't it.
What a joke of an article, how have the English press been saying a deal is close?
More like he was thrown from the table and told to let the professionals handle this deal
All this shows is that anything to do with United sells papers and promotes clicks.
and get me to 30k!
Actually, Freddie Röckenhaus is one of the most reliable, if not the most reliable, journalist when it comes to the BVB.I don't recall anyone in the English media saying the deal was "close"
Maybe its like i have said before in here: Zorc will stand his ground and if they don't get their sum they have in mind, they just let him play one more season in Dortmund. Arguments for this were mentioned a lot in here.
Spot on and wouldn't surprise me if this delaying thing is Utd just trying to build the hype of this deal
Maybe this is Dortmund's way of saying "we couldn't give a feck if you walk away, pay up or he's staying"
Someone will ask romano tonight and he will say the same. They are trying to figure out how to pay.
What?? It began months ago
Anything you read that's not on either clubs website is utter click bait.
Why cant anyone comprehend this?
But then you have Stone coming out and saying we are using an intermediary.
Hope we have 120m available as it seems we'll have to splash the cash. Doesn't look like BVB is fussed about us "walking away if the price isn't dropped".
He even name checked the intermediary. I wonder what Dortmund are playing at. It’s clear that discussions have taken place
So this is Zorc’s response to the briefing yday.

Ok, this article says it all, inclusive quotes from Watzke and Zorc. And this counts, its a Röckenhaus article. Iam changing my opinion in this moment: it seems that Sancho is staying one more year in Dortmund. If until 10. August things changes dramaticaly, no transfer.

Posturing.
Thats exactly what i was trying to explain from the very begining. This is their state of mind, and they got some arguments for this mindset.
I've still get 100% confidence he's ours. Dortmund play just as many pathetic games as we do. It's very boring.
I think United this entire time have been fully intending to pay the price. They are just briefing the opposite so that they don't get fleeced on other transfers they are trying to complete.
For 30M i would take a chance on Zaha to be honest.
But i wish we could sign Sancho soon, i don't know how much money is lost in merchandise every day a Sancho N° 7 shirt is not sold.
While the German article with quotes and all around a bit sobering, this is a good point. Name checking the intermediary makes it hard to imagine that there was no contact of any sorts. All a bit strange, even if it's just Dortmund posturing.
I feel worse for the Dortmund fans in this moment. Zorc said the same stuff with regards to Dembele right before he moved. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.
According to Watzke, they still haven't received any kind of offer for him, not from Utd, not from and kind of handler. And he doubled down on the deadline. The coming days will be interesting.
Look at the German posters coming crawling back at the first sign of it not happening 
how predictable.
how predictable.But an offer wont come in unless they reach a number they both agree on
Simon Stone basically backing down over his previous tweets and rehashing what Fabrizio Romano was saying all along is the only development
