Poor Dortmund. Its open season on that squad.

Lots of Ducker's articles have been like that recently. Doesn't seem as clued in as he was under SAF.
That sucks. But hopefully the club have known for a while and have a plan in place.
Sometimes I forget that we signed Valdes.
I didn't see it myself but I'm told he did say it or at least something like it.
This. Just. In.
Around 6 months ago.

Negative report: must be true.
Daniel Taylor is a reliable as you can get really.
De Gea to Madrid! Never saw that coming.
Should you really expect loyalty of a guy who left his "Boyhood" club in the first place?
Isn't Taylor considered reliable? Looks like De Gea is indeed going to become Judas.

Anyone got a clip of the comment?
I don't know the context of that comment, but Taylor is clearly not a bullshitter.
Seriously?
Been coming 
Don't sell him, I'd rather keep him for a season then the £20M we'd get for him.
We'd get way more than £20m.
We bought him for that when he was flapping his arms at everything.
If he was to be sold, I'd bet we would get something much closer to £40M. We don't want to sell but Real Madrid want to buy.To Atletico fans, I think he meant.
Can't we convince him to sign a new contract so that we get more money when he leaves (like we did with Ronaldo the year before he left)
What?
If he wants to go then fair enough. This is actually one of those times where moving to Madrid makes an awful lot of sense for the player in question. Don't think he particularly owes us anything given he kept us afloat for a large part of the season and is likely to get us a big transfer fee when sold.
it would be a shame though.

Not with him in the last year of his contract.
Ah sorry, I thought you meant he was Judasing us, seemed very harsh. Yeah, the Atletico fans should be pissed off alright.
Would be extremely shit if he left this summer for a relatively small fee. Could've at least signed a renewal like Suarez so we got a bigger price for him.

He's into the last year of his contract. He's a £40M GK with 2/3 years on his contract. With one year left, I fear we wouldn't get too much more then £20M.
Well at least that's the funding sorted for the transfer list van Gaal received from that fan the other day.
I wonder if the club might consider this if the Real offer is poor. With a year left of his contract, they'll try it on with regards to the fee.
Can't believe we're thinking about cashing in from selling when we should spend on players of De Gea's class in the first place.
What's the point of building a team if we're gonna ship all the crucial goods to Spain... Bloody hell, Woody needs to wake the feck up.

He is as good as gone, ungrateful Spanish beauty. I hope he soon realises that the politics and way Madrid do things made tgethe move not worth while.
And what exactly is he supposed to do about it?
No doubt if it came to two options:
1. Leave this summer for £20M; or
2. Leave next summer for a free.
I'd most defo choose option number 2. We could win the league and be challenging in Europe and he could be the difference. What's £20M to United? One season of DDG is worth a lot more.
Also, a year is a long time, the situation could change. Real might be forced into buying a keeper this summer who could be successful.
We simply have to hold onto him.
He got the resources and the power. Surely we can match the contract needs. This should be secured a long time ago before sorting out Smalling's and Jones' contract.
Agreed. Unless he pushes for a move, I'd rather forego the fee
I wouldn't be against it as long as De Gea's attitude stayed right.
He probably was offered everything but if DeGea says no then there's nothing we can do.
The prospect of losing another player to Madrid makes me sick.
It is 90% of the profits in 2014. United should sell, if he doesn't intend to stay, the 20m will finance his replacement.
