Real Madrid are in the stronger position on this, DDG is 24 and has a year left so when he joins for free he is only 25 and has years to give. Real have Ramos with 2 years left and this is his last chance to leave for another top team and to make a difference. Would we wait for 2 seasons to get Ramos when he turns 31 for free? Highly doubt it, especially thinking that Ramos wouldnt want to be on a low salary for those 2 seasons when Madrid make him an offer for more than he is on presently. With LvG announcing that he will leave in 2 seasons, does it also limit us to who will come and play for us? Even Ramos could be disheartened by the news.

Ramos is this seasons story and its related to ddg deal. Next year we wont be interested imo and next season we must buy a 1st choice keeper.
That's about correct. Ramos seemingly will not try to force his way out and will keep playing until he is 31 at which point they might already be looking to replace him anyway. De Gea however, as you say, could join them next year and still play there for 10 years before kick him out with no goodbye. There is very little pressure on Real Madrid here, however it's good to see that we are fighting back by trying to poach one of their players.
BBC are quoting reports from Spain stating that Ramos will extend his contract at Real to 2019.
So that's the third player to have mugged us off and used our name to get himself a cushy new contract after Gundogan and Alves.
Never mind, at least Otamendi is still an option... I hope.

Gündogan didnt use anybody to get a better contract. He was just a greedy bastard and ended up with a 1 year extension.

Slightly different circumstances here though. There's no harm in causing a bit of hassle for Madrid given they were trying to take one of our best players. As long as we can still get Otamendi then I don't see any harm done, let Ramos enjoy his new contract.
This. It was a way of not bending over for Madrid and in the same time getting a great player. We wont get him but we will kee ddg one more year.
Absolutely. And this should hopefully make Madrid think twice the next time they come after one of our players - if we of course develop another 'star'..
Jesus Katie, all due respect, but it's a bit late to be gettin onboard the Ramos train now - after the developments of the last 24hrs.
There's no chance he's coming now & whether he even wanted to come to us in the 1st place & was just using us - was always at the back of our minds anyway.
Said developments over the last 24hrs, seem to suggest that Ramos was just lookin for a reach-around from Perez & a wad of dough left on the dressing table for his troubles..
F*ck Real of course & never let that shower of pricks piss all over us ever again, but that mantra of ours wont make any difference if the player's attitude stinks to high heaven. Sure Di Maria's only a year into his 5 year contract & he looks to be off to PSG. He wants out & the club doesnt want players with shitty attitudes like his - he was shit last season anyway & never looked like giving a toss to improve his form - the opposite in fact.
I've said this many times on here; i got the impression that Di Maria was deliberately playin shite many times at the end of the season, to play himself out of the club.
DDG is a different kettle of fish. His attitude / performances have been superb all last season & even against Barca on Sat aswell.
United want to keep him, so they will fight to keep him, but if a player with Di Maria's piss-poor pussy-whipped mentality wants out - then get the f*ck out, but we want our money back or close to it you prick..
I am with the phone and I can't add tweets but the spanish press,Onda Cero and Man Utd Sainz(the journalist from As who started the history of Ramos some weeks ago) are saying that De Gea deal is very close.Probably they'll say something else tonight.
Seem to be having a good laugh at our expense on the RM forum, I really hope Woodward has something else up his sleeve, but fear we could be out of ideas now.
I do hope much as their brains may not want to acknowledge it that Ramos did/does genuinely want to leave, hardly ideal but I suppose we have been through the same with Rooney, it's soon forgotten.

You honestly think we will beat this drum all summer about him not leaving unless you give us Ramos and then just cave in? There is not a chance it will happen, that is unless you pay an offer we can't refuse, ie a world record fee, can you see Perez doing that?
Can't believe we're thinking of letting De Gea go unless Madrid pay us a good fee. Nobody would take Woodward serious in any future negotiations. I don't mind Ramos not coming (would have been shocking if it had happened), but for sure we need to keep De Gea this season like we've said we would.
If we sell De Gea to them after all these and keep Romero as first choice for a year until we sign replacement all hell will break loose. If we sign Cilessen for £20m it might be even worse.
Agree, Ramos would have been fun, but the more pressing point now is DDG....over to you Woody and don't let us down!
Not even Perez is that dumb. If he really wants him no matter what we wouldn't have brought in Casilla.
So he stays, that would suit all United fans, a year is a long time in football.
I had my doubts with Ramos but I still think that 30/35m€ will be the amount that Madrid will pay.It's not my intention to WUM but now I think that will be Madrid 2-United 0
No chance!Of course not you're better than that.
If you win this one then fair enough we move on and take it on the chin, but personally think there is some time to run on this just yet.
So DDG stays, job well done Woody!
Scared them shitless about their captain, and they won't get DDG, who they thought would be an easy sign.
United 2-0 Madrid.

Moral winners comes to mind.
Everything depends on Ramos.Marca says that he wants to stay and Sid Lowe that he still wants to leave but if he doesn't go publicly will be very difficult
About 6 weeks ago no United fan had Ramos as a target in mind or a realistic signing but we thought De Gea would leave, all this saga has done is mean we've kept De Gea for another year which is what most United fans wanted anyway. If all Ramos wanted was a new contract he's cost them an extra year waiting for De Gea to get it so it's hardly a victory for them.
This time next summer, when they've got their captain on a long term contract and David De Gea for nothing, it definitely won't be 2-0 United. Getting a player like De Gea for nothing is an enormous victory, even if they have to wait a year for it.
Mate if it's not your intention to be a WUM you're asking for annoyed replies by putting "Madrid 2 United 0". Fact is no won has won anything, you still have Ramos and we still have De Gea. I don't get how you can say we are down 1 in this situation.
Happy with United with this. United have turned this transfer saga into a month of speculation about Ramos, knowing full well United had no shot at him. Now after all that Real give Ramos a new deal and ended signing a new keeper that's not De Gea. You could say United forced Madrid hand in to a new keeper situation they clearly didn't want and now have managed to keep De Gea for another year.
They've probably killed the real Ramos and cloned him. No one was even thinking of Ramos prior to us being linked to him. If he signed a new contract? Then that would bother me if I were a fan because it's another example of players really not giving a shit for the fans. Is it a victory for Madrid? It spared most of us having to read about De Gea all f*cking summer for a start. I doubt you guys will appreciate him but whatever. Madrid always had the advantage in this situation but I would enjoy it while it lasts.
Perez is weird. Madrid are weird. Their fans are weird. If Madrid gives him what he wanted all along and he signs it? Kiss the shirt? He might as well wipe his arse with it for all the good it does.

A lot can happen in a year though.
I do wonder if the most unlikely thing happens and De Gea signs an extension. Will people say he was using Madrid to get a better offer?
Because realistically, with each passing day we become more desperate to keep him from leaving for free. Thus making us more open to increase his salary a bit more than what we offered in May.

Sorry then, I misunderstood all posts related to Madrid-De Gea-Ramos. To me it seemed like a fight to show power and sooner or later will have to see the conclusion. Next time I will write my opinion in the unpopular opinions thread and here what people wants to read.
It doesn't all depend on Ramos really, if he he signs another contract with you guys United aren't just going to give in and hand DDG over, he will stay unless as I say Madrid offer a massive fee, which they won't imo.
Ask most United fans and they'd rather keep DDG even if it's only for another season, espcially if the replacement is Cillesen, fact Is DDG and Otamendi is a far better bet than Cillesen and Ramos.
Another year gives a chance for another keeper to move into focus, or who knows DDG might just come to his senses and commit with us.
I quite like the conversations we have, will be so sweet at the end of the transfer window when we have Bale Ronnie and De Gea all signed up
I also like to read your dreamsI quite like the conversations we have, will be so sweet at the end of the transfer window when we have Bale Ronnie and De Gea all signed up
I think that you will have to wait a year to get Bale, and with United financial power, eventually you will get our favorite players. Don´t you think that instead Ramos, United should be trying to buy Stones (I really can rate him but if Chelsea is interested...) to keep the best UK players ?BBC are quoting reports from Spain stating that Ramos will extend his contract at Real to 2019.
So that's the third player to have mugged us off and used our name to get himself a cushy new contract after Gundogan and Alves.

I'm getting sick of this opinion on the CAF.
So now every time we don't get our player and he extends a deal, he has "used us"? It is clear that Ramos wanted to leave. It was not just for his contract. Things might not have worked out and maybe he wants to stay at Madrid now. There's no using here.
Agreed.
I think SAF mentioned in his latest book how sometimes transfers just don't pan out and you move down the list of targets.
I doubt there was smoke with no fire here. He was always more likely to stay with Madrid, but I think we showed that we actually had a chance.
I knew this was going to happen. Even if we keep DeGea for a year now, he'll walk out the door next summer. He's not going to change his mind.
For all the posturing at Madrid, United still end up the losers.
