Sorry for not being the toppest or reddest. To say United aren't the pull they once were is hardly a stretch though, is it? Have you watched them for the past 7 years or so? How many of the best players in the world will think "ooh yeah... i will have me some of that!"?
I'm curious, where can you see him come summer 2021?If we don't get him this summer, he goes elsewhere next year. Suggestions we hold off now and come in next year are likely naive.
If we rate him and want him, it's sort of now or never.
And Barcelona will end the season trophy less despite having the best footballer I've ever seen. Super logic.
Of course there are other players. But it's better to get the best, if you can. Signing Eden Hazard or Malcolm as your winger can make a huge difference to your success.

As I sad we can't get back to the top by just sitting there and thinking of well nobody wants to come to us or try to get top players. You're not a top red but seem to be a complete opposite if you catch my drift.Sorry for not being the toppest or reddest.

Looks like its all over.

In all honesty, if he doesn't come to us this season, I could see him going to Bayern Munich next season or the season after, if he plans to stay in Germany for the long term, which is unclear.
He will? What are the lottery numbers?He'll join Liverpool next summer.
If he didn’t want to leave Germany this whole story wouldn’t have gained so much traction. He is “homesick” and wants to come back to England. So no chance Bayern sign him.There's a bit more to it than that. Not all of those teams that you mentioned play beautiful, free flowing football or are in great places. I would be hesitant to move to either Barcelona or Real Madrid right now as, especially Madrid as (despite winning the league) they look in a bit of a mess on the field. I'm sure Sancho would look at players like Dembele (Barca), Bale and Hazard (Madrid) and think that maybe they're not making the most out of these talented players.

He will not be with Dortmund for the complete duration of his contract and they would be idiots to let him leave on a free eventually instead of cashing in on him. They will cash in on him eventually, especially if his performances are as good as they have been and continue to be.
Looks like its all over.
Daily routine:
step 1) Dortmund official/player does an interview.
step 2) Interviewer asks a question about Sancho.
step 3) Dortmund official/player answers the question
step 4) Some Twitter account takes up the question
step 5) ???
step 6) "OMG THEY ARE SO OBSESSED THEY CANT STOP TALKING ABOUT IT THE TRANSFER IS CLEARLY ON THEY ARE SO DESPERATE TO SELL!!!"
Chef has apparently commented that Jadon happily eats every meal he prepares and that he's happy he's staying.Who is next? Have the kit man and the chef say they are happy for Jadon to stay as well?

Strange stuff. He's obsessed about cafe obsession.The question is why are you obsessed by this? Genuinely curious.
Well, one things for sure, Dortmund will be losing a lot of face if the deal goes through from this point on. So much so that it becomes almost a factor in the price - there really is no way Dortmund can take less then the original asking price without looking like chumps, arguably it might take more than the original price now (unless Sancho really went on strike, which isn't on the cards). If Woodward really was trying to wait it out to ratchet down the price, well, he's probably achieved the exact opposite.

Regarding the “Sancho then” tweet.
Strange stuff. He's obsessed about cafe obsession.
Based on what? He didn't say anything like that. He even today said that he is happy playing with his teammates etc...Sancho is happy to move to the club. Not sure your point?
From WikiWhat's the prize money for the EL ?
Similar to the UEFA Champions League, the prize money received by the clubs is divided into fixed payments based on participation and results, and variable amounts that depend of the value of their TV market.
For the 2019–20 season, group stage participation in the Europa League awarded a base fee of €2,920,000. A victory in the group pays €570,000 and a draw €190,000. Also, each group winner earns €1,000,000 and each runner-up €500,000. Reaching the knock-out stage triggers additional bonuses: €500,000 for the round of 32, €1,100,000 for the round of 16, €1,500,000 for the quarter-finals and €2,400,000 for the semi-finals. The losing finalists receive €4,500,000 and the champions receive €8,500,000.
He's homesick right now, but he might not be in a year's time or even sooner than that. People can change state and that will influence his decision making. It could be that if he's missing home now, that feeling could grow stronger and he pushes for a move next summer.
The homesick stuff might just be paper talk, so I'm dubious about reading too much about that anyway. What we can't deny is that in his current league, Bayern Munich are the dominant team and the obvious "step up" if he wants to stay in that country. I hope for our sake that he is homesick as that makes the case stronger for us to pursue a deal.

If he is so eager to come, he can make some moves and speed it up.
The desperate party in this deal is United. Dortmund would be desperate to have time to find a replacement the longer this takes, but they are not desperate to sell & will not accept below their valuation. As far as they are concerned he’s their player & will remain their player until their full asking price is met. Woodward’s negotiation tactics will work about as well as they did with Leicester last season. We will either pay the asking price or we will not get the player, they are not going to drop his valuation. If we think it’s too much then we just have to move on to someone else. It’s pretty simple. The ball is in United’s court, but Dortmund are far from desperate, they are comfortable.Dortmund's actions actually indicate that they're desperate to sell. They've been really aggressive in trying to close the deal quickly.
Pretty sure he's a Dortmund supporter
Ohh yes I like this.. And a poll where you can't change your mindWe need a poll for people to vote if they think we will get him or not. Sort the muppets out from the boys.
I thought he was Bayern? That explains why he's desperate for it not to happen then!

Did De Gea come out publicly and say he wanted to go to Madrid? But you could bet top dollar on the fact that he definitely wanted to go that summer. Sometimes it’s a bit more than making noise. You also have to think for some reason if the transfer doesn’t workout this summer you don’t wanna leave a sour taste for people at your club - whether it’s your teammates, staff or management. Just let things flow. It isn’t the end of the world for him if he doesn’t get his move this summer.Based on what? He didn't say anything like that. He even today said that he is happy playing with his teammates etc...

I am not saying that he is not interested. I am saying how much he is interested.Based on the vast majority of journos saying he's agreed terms with United? Based on the fact talks are still on going?
A transfer works by sounding out a player first otherwise you waste your time doing everything else only to find they don't want to move. We wouldn't even be where we are now if the player wasn't interested. Irrespective of what you believe that much is common sense.
