Vidic and Evra style signings. I think we are going to see a very energetic and dynamic side this year. Young and Mata as the guardians rather than key players.
Mate i realised i quoted the wrong post. I wanted to quote the one regarding Ndombele
They have all been briefed we are going for AWB and Maguire at whatever the cost. I believe we will eventually get both and all is just posturing from both the selling clubs and us
He's a fantastic player. One, along with De Ligt who has been talked about by scouts for a while. There are so many like this with potential and offered for small amounts of money. Glad to hear United linked but he's definitely going to AC Milan, because we're too late. Ben Godfrey at Norwich and Adam Webster at Bristol City are the two I'd for if we're into the whole "save money AND buy British" thing. Both would do well in the Premier League.
Who else has been briefed re. Maguire?
Very rare you can do both things
Everyone has been mentioning us with Maguire all summer haven't they?
Yeah, it’s nothing to do with him being class or anything like that. I shouldn’t get this wound up by a journalist but Robson is such a hack.
so we have 100M budget but will go 'big' for Maguire, got it.
What a weird fecking tweet.
The reports are from two different people.
Plus, the £100m budget was reportedly minus sales - if Pogba/Lukaku are sold, suddenly there is £175m+ to spend.
Yeah, state an opinion, then completely play it down.We’ve become the British Bilbao it seems.
Well it's a difficult job pushing the "Ole goes British" narrative the media have created without looking like a complete arse if/when we buy someone like Bruno
Halfway through the window it does check out though with a Welsh lad in, and two English boys seemingly lined up next.
So basically all we have to do is be better than Arsenal next season for top 4.
Another good player for the right winger role. Since we failed Sancho we should be looking at Brooks from Bournemouth.
Except our interest in Maguire far predates it all and judging by the most recent reports it seems Bruno is more likely to be our 3rd in than Maguire. Don't get what the fuss is about either way. Loads of clubs have a core from their own country. Loads on here wants us to be more like Ajax well this is one step in that direction.
I don’t think it’s a bad thing to want that core group either. Just don’t think we’re targeting the best British talent, which makes it a risky bet.
Every time I've seen him he's been playing on the left
Haha, journalists are quick to brandish one English signing as an evidence for policy of signing British players.
To be fair, James, AWB... then i think it's obvious we want Sancho, Maguire. etc etc
You can tell that United are planning on buying British this summer by the way they're about to buy a British player. Is this a hint about future purchases also being British this summer? Probably, but also maybe not. Send tweet.
The whole "United are overpaying" narrative, which if we did switch to "cheaper, foreign options" we'd be lambasted for not signing English talent.
perfectWatch this. He explains how Ajax operate and how they collectively help run the club.
Anyone else reckon £50m up front and a 50% sell on would suit all parties?
(Including fans on here).
After what happened with Peresic they can pay up
Naive to think they won’t be in the running for top 4. They have huge talent coming back from loan. In today’s market, players coming back are easily worth over £300m.
£50m isn't going to get us a decent replacement in this market. What if they don't sell him or he runs his contract down?
Doesn't mean we cut them some slack and give them a player for £25m less than what we want just to shift dead wood.
We keep him and play him
