Dont know why we keep begging him to stay. We already offered him plenty, and he rejected it. It is quite obvious what he wants. He will stay if we offer him a ridiculous amount, otherwise he will leave on a free next year and get a ridiculous amount from his next club.
Just let him go FFS, no keeper is worth that much, especially one who has so many short comings and is only a great shot stopper.
150k
The salaries these players who have achieved nothing are getting is absolutely ridiculous.
Just swap the fecker with Oblak. I'm sure he'll want to go back home. His heart is not in it anymore.
If it's true, it's fooking ridiculous -- goalie at 350k? Lingard will be expecting 250k/wk just for his videos at this rate.
It's pointless grovelling for DDG to stay. It's like our first relationship break-up when we would almost beg for her/him to get back together. Enough humiliation for United.
He can fook off.
We also have Henderson as a young player from the academy who is performing very well. We can sell him and buy a replacement, or can just keep him for a season longer and then play Henderson, who will get a year on loan in the PL. There is no need for this desperation.
With all the holes in the squad people want to create another one, by selling our best player over the last 5 years. I'd rather we spend some of the money we earn on keeping our best players. If he still wants to go in a year or 2 then fair enough, we'll get a lot more for him when he's not free in 12 months.
Why would Oblak come?
Atletico have lost/will probably lose a number of key players. Godin, Griezmann, Rodri, Costa to name a few. There is no guarantee they will be able to compete the next season, this will be a very good time to jump ship especially since he has said on previous occasions that he would like to play in the PL one day. Plus a bigger paycheckWhy would Oblak come?
It's tricky.
For the first time ever in his United career he's had a serious drop in form which led to several high profile goals which lasted for a span of 10-12 games. Normally you'd wave that off as being a one off and continue as normal. However he wants more than 350k a week. Worst case scenario his form continues to be erratic, what do we do then? We have a player on insanely high wages who the big clubs will avoid due to his inconsistent form. Alternatively we cash in now when he's still going to be valued high and we free up his wages allowing for a younger keeper to come in.
It's unfortunate timing given the state of our squad, but we should at least be considering it imo.
A straight swap, why not. I know it's not that simple but if he won't accept 350k a week we should be looking to get rid now.Just swap the fecker with Oblak. I'm sure he'll want to go back home. His heart is not in it anymore.
He will reject all contract offers and move on next summer anyway. Our only hope is PSG coming in with a nice bid and huge wages to pull him there, but i doubt it. If PSG go for Donnarumma now, De Gea will leave for free to Juve next summer is my guess (maybe Atletico if Oblak leaves next year).
If we don't draw the line nowish, Woodie will bankrupt the club. WTF.
We may need the Saudis out of desperation to bail the Glazers out at this rate -- who will pay them a million a week but at a price for failure. Bone Saw United.
His form has been shit ever since the WC. And kept making big mistakes in the last few games. This is just too much money for a keeper. Get the CBs sorted, and a good DM to shield that defence and we will improve our defence even if we play Romero in goal.

Why don't these Italian clubs do business like sane human beings instead of begging and bargaining like old crones?
Should be the top earner at the club. No doubt about thatJust sell him and bring in someone else
Too much sense for the hierarchy at the club.His form has been shit ever since the WC. And kept making big mistakes in the last few games. This is just too much money for a keeper. Ge and a good DM to shield that defence and we will improve our defence even if we play Romero in goal.
I'm guessing Italian football hasn't grown as quickly from a wealth point of view e.g. TV money so maybe they are struggling to keep up, although that hasn't stopped some insane deals being done, but maybe that's part of the problem. One or two superstars to fuel their commercial business and then pocket change left after that.
It would be so good! Incredible how fast out fans turned away from him and declared him "past it", with the assumption that we can easily replace or even improve on him.
Rodrigo will be a new Man City player, their representatives came to a €70m agreement today
