Yeah i was one of the few against signing Sanchez, could see the trouble coming a mile off. Whilst i think this guy would do better, it's a massive gamble. He's not the perfect CB and he's not played in the PL either. So to give him the type of money that we are is going to cause issues with other players that we have and might look foolish in a couple of years, especially if he flops.
I'd never pay a 19 year old anything like that. It's insane.
Look at other options?
So everything so far has come from Barca journos? Not sure what to make of that. Understandable though that Man Utd won’t brief journos in case it fails, but would be very nice if something came out from that side too.
What a thoroughly nonsense post.
How much do you think Mbappé should be paid in the current market? £60k a week? After all, he’s just a kid.
Yes that's fair. Although, at the end of his career if he's won twice as many trophies at Barcelona than he has at United then I don't think he'll complain regardless of who he played with.
no he said hed chosen PSG
"As French media announced days ago, we confirmed that Frenkie De Jong is going to the PSG!!! MD confirms that he has broken the pact with the FCB. Ajax and PSG profile transfer details to be closed soon"
Mbappe is a world cup winner and Baloon de whore successor to Ronaldo and Messi though.
Although I agree with paying someone that much. Those two players (bold part) aren't cheap, as Alderweireld will only cost 25 mil but we'd have to pay him 200/250k plus he's 29 and Maguire will likely cost 70 mil (
) << He's not that good.Pfff. He is no Antonio Valencia. I could picture Valancia infront of the Stretford End using google translate to sing along
You use lube? Fancy

Definitely, but at the same time he could be someone we struggle to hold onto in 3-4 years time if we don’t look like competing for major trophies.
Raiola will always point his players towards the money. We've got a good chance.
Explain.
I'm trying not to get too excited but what a signing this would be. Would send a massive signal to others that are reluctant to join us.
He’s not a successor to anything until he succeeds to it, and when he was signed by PSG as a teenager and put on £290k p/w (reportedly) - he was not yet a World Cup winner. What he was though, was extraordinary and already one of the best forwards in the world as a teenager. De Ligt is not far off that as a centre half I think.
So what? Players come and go. If we get four good years out him and then he moves on, what’s the big deal with that? Not every player needs to be here for their entire career.
For special De Ligt occasions? Absolutely.

Woodward: Listen Sancho, we're building a new team, we've signed some players we want you to be part of it. Well we've got Maguire, some lad from the championship and some reserve from Newcastle, we might be getting one of Tottenham's cast off's as well. Waste not, want not you know?
Hello? Sancho? You there?
It would also send a similar signal that inbound players could negotiate massive wages out of us.
Haven’t seen anyone post any formations yet.
Don't want him... better giving the playing time to Tuanzebe and Regan Poole
You could go onto YouLube to watch his videos!!
This is the player we want and need, I can't even begin to explain how excited I am about the prospect of Matthijs de Ligt signing for this club. It's looking more likely to happen as well
Attackers will always get far more hype in this regard. Mbappe is a world cup winner and probably already the best striker in the business (spare one or two others). De Ligt has a bit of work to do to match that sort of profile.
Sorry what now
In short, the notion that we shouldn’t use our financial might to attract players who otherwise wouldn’t sign.
That if a player does choose to join United on account of a superior financial package that they won’t be committed or try and have as successful a career as they would elsewhere.
Are we supposed to deliberately offer less money so we build a squad of players who only definitely want to play for the shirt? A shit squad essentially.
Referencing any other signing as an example against a certain approach is pointless.
That's why all our other targets are coming from the Championship.
Wonen daar ook superjoden?
Ja daar wonen superjoden!
Vinden Joden voetbal fijn?
Als ze maar voor Ajax zijn!

Are there super Jews living there?
Yes, super Jews are living here!
Do Jews like football?
Only if they support Ajax!

Only till one of Real or Barca come calling.. I'd be happy if he gives us a good 5-6 years
Who is the perfect CB? What good is PL experience? We've bought PL experienced players like Schneiderlin, Matic, Lukaku, Jones, and Mata. It really means nothing.
How much was Mbappe bought for and at what time in his career? After one great season for Monaco? It's the same thing just with the attacking slant changing the pricing.
Am I the only one that don't want him now that we're close to getting him?
You pay top money, you get top players.
If Sanchez worked out no one would care about his wages.

So I guess this is the one this summer.
