Have a feeling that's the best offer we're ever going to get for these two. They'll go for £10m each next summer.

Because he’s happy to sit on his arse as sixth (soon to be seventh when Mainoo returns) choice midfielder. He’s a waster.
Yeah we'll be giving them away next summer having paid them another year's worth of wages for a few poor games.
He's firmly entrenched as a bench/backup player, which should have been the case the majority of his time at United.
He's been given more than enough time to showcase his potential and while he was able to score a few good goals, his overall ability isn't good enough to start.
Totally fine for him staying as a bench player and if nobody wanted to meet the realistic value of him (35M to 40M quid, contract until June 2025), so be it.

I think selling him would have been the best decision (including for himself) but considering we signed Amrabat... I don't mind Scott being an utility player, really.
yep. and then we wonder how city get like 45 for palmer. WE'd be the types to hold on to him for 4-5 years, hardly playign him, then sell him for like 4 million tops
How is this shower of shit still United player is beyond any reasonable explanation.
He's played as an 8 a lot of times under Ten Hag.
Agreed.
We tried to sell him but he rejected Fulham.
Like Maguire, he's happy enough to stick around and not play football.

Based on reports, it would appear that the players themselves are a much bigger hindrance than the people making the decisions at the top.
Now you can ultimately draw this back to unnecessarily large contracts that should never have been handed out, but this is where we are.
It’s a terrible lack of ambition from the players, really.
Fulham could've been a good springboard for McTom.
I'm expecting Amrabat to be much better so it's difficult to see how much McTom will play.

So, he is now officially 6th or even 7th choice (depending on Mainoo). And we rejected 30 mil? Unbelievable business from club who has FFP problems.
So Fulham wanted him and this guy said no!!
The window seems to suggest that we value McTominay more than anyone else
had we done business with West Ham then Amrabat would be established at United with perhaps enough for another player/better left back

It seems he (McTominay) didn't want to leave.

Any chance Bayern come in for him out of desperation?
I don't blame him to be fair. Without Mitrovic that could very easily see him end up in the Championship next season and that can become a slippery slope.
Just been informed the Bundesliga transfer window is closed now.
Too late, German clubs apparently can't do ongoing business if I understand correctly.
Unlike Bayern to get things so badly wrong
I said months ago; guy has zero ambition. He is just happy to be in United.
Yeah their fans in the Palhinha thread are saying the same although my take away from the outside looking in is that Fulham have made themselves look really unprofessional. Bayern probably should have gotten it done earlier though.
I have said it before and I will say it again he is connected and protected from upon high at United. It doesn't take rocket science.
He'll be a cult hero at Fulham now.
He's allowed them to keep Palhinha and avoid signing McTominay.
Fans will forever love him for it.

He is United through and through and academy lad.
Tbf to him he probably would have been offered a bigger wage by Fulham than he gets here if they actually wanted the move and weren't just playing silly buggers. If he's staying it's because he wants to be here, although I think he'll regret it.
Will enjoy the first game Mainoo is brought on/ starts while McT warms the bench.
Is this a serious comment?
Probably is - he has quite a few of those each season
What is wrong with that comment? Guy is happy to be here and be backup of the backup. If not, he would push for a transfer like Fred did, like Elanga did or like Hendo did.
I tend to believe that too.
ridiculous comment. Been here since he was 14, always puts in a full shift, scored a lot of important goals for us.
Good player, have a bit of respect
He will see far more football than either of those two would have this season.
Another hilarious thread title
Amended
It must still be such a joy to be a United player, as noone wants to leave the club even if they never play.
Not sure I understand calling McT names for supposedly turning down an offer we have no idea of the content of and staying at United. There's not even the excuse he's a financial drain to the club, he is on very reasonable wages and hasn't cost millions in transfer fee.
It's a bit funny TBH
Palhinha is having his photo taken, in a Bayern kit, after passing his medical.
Phone rings.
"Erm...best take that kit off. McTominay doesn't want to go to Fulham."
FOOOOOOOOOOOK
