Stay strong muppets as I'm now tapping out, going to go cry in a cold shower while fully clothed like they do in films

Ronaldinho was the first then Sniejder then Griezman theres so many ive forgotten them all I want to sleep and wake up when hes oursStay strong muppets as I'm now tapping out, going to go cry in a cold shower while fully clothed like they do in films
If we don't get this done it's safe to say that Oles plans fairly fecked.
Clearly we are banking on this.

Is that one of the knobheads that reckon we should sign Grealish, Zaha and Jimenez for a combined total of £108mill instead of spending it on Sancho?
Fair play if Woody holds his ground and doesn’t pay 120M.
Exactly why I don't know why people are worried? Ole keeps getting what he wants as he keeps delivering what's asked of him.
Kidding?
Nope. If the club doesn’t want to break the bank during Covid for him then that’s fine. Just hope we move quickly for other targets.
Hopefully we get an answer quick.
Not If we don't get him though
I actually think it was my fault. I committed the ultimate sin and watched a ‘Welcome to Man Utd’ YouTube compilation of Sancho’s greatest hits. I never watch them before it’s signed, sealed and delivered but this felt like a sure thing... I’ve only gone and jinxed it!
Club has a history of fecking things up last few years. I think it will get done but wouldn't be surprised if we feck it up
Dortmund have said a lot of things, do you really think they'll turn down €120m on the 11th? Or even the 20th? Doing some very quick maths, is easy to work out that Dortmund will not get more for Sancho next summer than they will this summer, even if there's a bidding war next year, it still won't rise to €120m.
When have we missed out on a target? And how would adding a DOF to the process of: Scouts identify player along with manager > manager speaks to Woodward > Woodward speaks to Joel Glazer to get approval to release funds > Woodward and Judge use intermediaries to broker a deal > negotiations take place > personal terms take place > player is signed.
You think adding more steps to that would speed things up?
We need to stop obsessing over one target.
Checked his stats. Ridiculously good at FWL, FWR, AMC. Sancho adds depth as well as quality. One of the attacking 3 (bar CF) can be rested every game. That’s 33% less playing time for Rashford, Greenwood and Bruno + huge improvement in creativity when Sancho is in.
I don’t care how much we will pay. Just get that guy.

Who says we are? It's not obsessing either. We clearly want Sancho, so work is being done on it. To be honest I doubt there's many backups to Sancho being thought of because we're that sure of getting him.
Well some people don’t seem to understand that we may not be willing to pay 120m during Covid for Sancho. And are crying about Woodward for this.
I’ll be honest having €120 million in the bank does nothing for me as a fan whereas the excitement of seeing Sanhco play week in week out is priceless. I really hope we just stump up and pay, he’s worth every penny and honestly I’d rather sign Sancho plus no one else rather than moving to secondary targets.
It’s worrying if our whole success is hinged on one signing. Would be bad planning.
Couldn't agree more
Yeah, in all likelihood we're playing in an empty stadium for the foreseeable future with all that entails from a revenue and financial planning perspective.
What price did we pay for Fernandes? And that was pre-covid.
We've got more targets in case this doesn't come off, I wouldn't worry too much. Sancho is just obviously a step above the others. The media will always make this a bigger deal than it has to be
But we have dire needs, there are no players in world football who would satisfy those needs better (I.e. if we are talking about any single player and putting Messi aside)
Very quiet today as opposed to previous days. Calm before the storm?
Edit: never mind
Them making contact seems to suggest Sancho leaving is a probability, not a possibility

Quietly working on image rights and agent fees perhaps. It may be difficult in deals of this magnitude and player’s high media profile
Wonder if we have a sell on clause like with Zaha for Memphis.
Have we got a buyback clause for Memphis?
I hope this is the case, I guess there’s no target as obvious as Sancho.
What sells more papers? United in for Sancho at massive fee or United in for some lad that plays in Italy for an average club. Mitten was reporting that United have about 4 or 5 back up options that we most likely won't need to pursue (because we'll get Sancho) but they're on the cards should this one not come off.
Depay would be a good signing for them, would mean Reyna is the direct Sancho replacement if he leaves.
It's a funny ol' life
Not when he has been the main target for two seasons and Oles top target and he wants to join and he isn't overly expensive in context.
Theres something in the wages etc i feel. Thats why we’ve suddenly moved fast to clear Sanchez's huge wedge off the wage list
Its like We should revert to the LVG tactic of spending all the money on as many random shite players as possible
Maybe. But unlike Alexis, Sancho will help generate a lot of new commercial revenue for the club
