I could be wrong but I doubt kids in Brazil or Cameroon (random countries dont kill me) dream of winning the CL, they dream of escaping poverty.
Kylian Mbappe | Merci.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran discuss a horrific month of December and a depressing FOUR defeats in a row - the latest coming against Wolves and Newcastle.
They discuss how much blame is on Ruben Amorim and rank our squad against other Premier League teams.
Do we have any chance of avoiding defeat at Anfield?

If he goes to Saudi, it’s only because Henderson started the trend.
It looks like PSG is willing to bench him the whole season in case they don’t come to an agreement: https://www.skysports.com/football/...e-transfer-next-summer-amid-contract-standoff
Is Mbappe really prepared to sit out an entire season?
In past few seasons, we've been outspent by one of City, Chelsea or Arsenal. We clearly not doing quite well: we don't have a centre forward
But we're not talking about unknown players who have just come out of the slums. We are talking about elite players who already play in some of the best leagues in the world and are handsomely paid
Right, so instead of shutting down transfer rumors for high profile players - something that managers do regularly - and welcoming them instead = diplomatic answers. Despite the very recent history that we can point to about said manager actively wanting to work with a high profile player.
Saying that the manager doesn’t want high profile players out of thin air - with nothing to justify said assertion - accurate depiction of things.
really?
So a consultant doctor I know was getting £103k (before tax) in UK and was offered a total compensation package of £200k tax free in KSA. They pay all professionals crazy. They pay nothing to the working class though.
Why risk it? Get the player you want now when there’s a cue already of interested clubs. Madrid are a club with ambition and they need a Benzema replacement, it will happen this summer.
Yup my uncle is a dentist, he did about 8 years in Riyadh. His patients included Princes and generals etc.
Multi multi millionaire now.
Cnut.
So, what you are saying is that we should be the highest spender every season? If we look at the total from the last 5 seasons (including this summer window), we are 3rd placed for highest spender and 2nd placed for highest net spender. In the world.
If that doesn't mean we have more than enough money, I don't know what does...
Amazing Hope he goes there.
Hope he goes there.Don't we have any player worth even half the amount?
I just gave you a example of Ten Hag can praise players even though he do not would like them in his first eleven or team like he did De Gea.
I do not think Mbappe fits Ten Hags profile of player he would want in his team. Even though Mbappe are one of the worlds best players but he seems money motivated and have shown a selfish side of him in a bad way like this clip shows.
Ten Hag wants strong characters in the team he said, but i think that Mbappe might be the wrong character.
I never said that the manager would not work with high profile players, but he would like to work with high profile players that fits into the team and playing style.
No FFP in Asian football?
Football is about to get very weird (moreso)
1 year deal then?
Retiring at just 24. A sad end to what was once a promising career...
Know a couple of people who have moved over to work on the “Line” project, silly amount of money to be made if you are willing to relocate for a couple of years.
Money Grabbing whore comes to mind… he really should have given La Liga a shot.
PSG Community confirms. Kylian Mbappé and his signing for Real Madrid is already a closed issue since June 22, everything else is show.
PSG Community were the first to inform about Luis Enrique, and also about Mbappe's renewal year ago when all media were saying that he was going to Madrid. They are very close to the club. We will see if they are right but they are very reliable source.

Talk about throwing your career down the pan.
You gave an example of something completely different, whereas I'm speaking of something specific.
My question to you was - where did you get that from? You've elaborated a bit now by saying that you think Mbappe is the wrong character and illustrated it with a video of him having a tantrum due to frustration. Similar videos can be found of Bruno Fernandes and Ten Hag just made him captain, by the way.
I'd also find it hard to say Mbappe isn't a strong character - guy is 24 years old, one of the best players in the world and has led his national team to international glory, and damn near single handedly dragged them to a world cup win last final.
In terms of playing style - Mbappe is a better Marcus Rashford - how would he not suit our playing style?
To be honest that was obvious. There was zero reason for PSG to reject the bid. The hard part is convincing the player.
Are you guys even following the details? It’s just for one year. A career is longer than one year.
A year on the bench or a year playing where you will get paid more than you would in 10 years.
But its not going to be just one year, is it?
Take a gigantic paycut to return to Europe? I very much doubt it.
If he goes, he goes for a while.
Nobody in their right mind would turn down the mountain of money being thrown at them like this. I dont blame Mbappe one bit. Go become a billionaire my boy!
Why are people surprised at PSG accepting the bid? Of course they were going to, but it doesn't matter because it's up to him. Very unlikely he'll go there.
I thought Saudi and Qatar had bad relations
You think Al Hilal are going to pay €300m to have him for one year, and then sell him to Real Madrid for €100m? Because nobody is paying anywhere close to what Al Hilal are going to demand.
I don’t understand that logic. If he refuses to take the deal then he’s taking a massive pay cut before even having ever had a pay rise. At least he’ll get to enjoy the sweetness of the honey for a year at least.
Making €700m in a year tax free is the equivalent of making well over a billion a year in England or Spain. At that point I very much doubt he’s going to refuse to go to Madrid because he’s on a lot less money.
Yeah, we are not matching a £260M bid. First priority or not, that is waaay too much.
The reported details of the deal says he has the option to leave for free if he wishes. Al-Hilal know he wants Madrid.
What a circus Mbappe has become.
Please go to Saudi or Real..just keep your money grabbing shadow off Old Trafford.

A) Obvious BS account
B) Even if it was true, Mbappe holds all the cards.. If he wants 700m from the Saudi League, he wont accept any other club.. Or he'll wait it out for the season and join Madrid.
C) Hopefully we want nothing to do with this circus.
The logic is perfectly clear, if he accepts the offer he is not going to settle for "normal" contracts in Europe anymore.
Your logic has serious flaws. It’s like saying if I’m offered £1 million then I’m never going to be able to accept £100k again, so I’m going to choose to reject the £1 million in the first place and just be happy with £100k.
I don't think people should take this Al-Hilal story at face value. It's preposterous and incredibly convenient.
Is it not odd that a world record bid is submitted and accepted in such an instant? Does it not usually take a few weeks to negotiate a fee and how it's paid?
I imagine that this is orchestrated with PSG to get Real Madrid to the table, and the fee as a reference point for negotiations.
