Tell me you don't know what's going on without saying you don't know what's going on.
Seriously. WTF even is this tweet. So many like this lately where they're not actually saying anything.

I would lose respect for anyone not accepting an offer like that
I love the guy - but that offer (if true) is too good to turn down.If your definition of being greedy is wanting to make a lot more money - yes then 99% of the population is greedy by default.
Did you do research on that, though?
Besides, you don't need to be excessively greedy to fancy £$€250m. To basically do your job in a dodgy country, not mass genocide of kittens
As someone who moved from working in the city for £50k+ to moving to a job that pays almost £10k less, because I prefer the quality of life, I find it interesting that people can throw out statements like this about the entire human population
Is this really true? I doubt there’s many things you could buy for £750m that you couldn’t for £500m.
He did say 99 percent to be fair
I bet if it was 250 million less you would still be in the city
No I said 99%
What?
He’s saying it’ll be done soon. Key details left to be ironed out. What more do you want him to say, it’s more or less what the other journo’s are saying.
And yes - it is a lot more complex than that - but not when it comes to huge wages like that. A difference of £10k a year - and I dont know, but maybe some of that is compensated by lower living costs etc - isn't that big if you get a better quality of life. But when you took that job making 50+ a year, I assume you improved your wages quite a lot - and were happy about it. So in a way you have probably been there as well
You have to consider the starting point. 50% up from half a billion isn't going to change his or his families lifestyle.
That's exactly why super rich people never use murky tricks, immoral practices and bend or break the law to increase their wealth.
Even for millionaires 250 is a lot of money and its not like he's guaranteed trophies by not moving to the Middle East anyway.
Bayern or PSG aren't coming for him, its United, Napoli, Chelsea etc hardly CL or domestic league contenders. That's an incredibly high price just to play in the CL or PL.
Can imagine Edwin telling Arnold and Murtough not to come back for any more players, whilst they're sat at the other side of the table sniggering and telling him they'll try not to.
2 days later the phone in Amsterdam rings..."can we just discuss Antony....I promise this is the last one Edwin"

That doesn't require them to move to a place they don't want to be, take part in a competition which they don't care about.
I think if he can join Bayern, Real, City, etc. he would do that instead of going to KSA but if he has no choice he probably goes KSA over United as we are not winning anything in the next couple of years.
Are we really kidding ourselves that he'd go to Saudi Arabia for trohpies not money?
It's becoming obvious at this point that Romano wipes the floor with literally every other muppet journo. How the feck is he this on the ball all the time? Every league, he always knows what's up way before everyone else.
Kind of my point. Hes said United are "hoping" to get it done today but there's still no agreement. That's not an update. It's done purely for the tweet interactions.
No just that it is preferable to earn 250 million then to build something at United at the moment.
Someone ask Stone what's his feeling on the De Jong situation, obviously heard Whitwell's on the podcast yesterday.
Looking done, and a pretty astute signing. Good news.
Agree with this. No way he says he wants out when he'd be perfectly happy returning there. That does not mean he would not also like a move to United.
Heres the exclusive news till deadline day. De Jong doesn't want to leave Barcelona. Doesn't mind if he has to join man united. Won't leave until he gets his 17m paid in full by Barcelona. Repeat everyday.
Stone doesn’t actually know any news, he only comments when everybody else has. It makes him dependable because he doesn’t post “Insider speculation” but makes him useless for running commentary.
By just repeating news that other journalists are reporting? Or then posting several tweets on one transfer giving vague update details that mean nothing. Most of the stuff on his timeline is already out there by the time he tweets it.
Hilarious. Nobody cares if Dan on the cafe doesn't 'respect' them.
What is this bizarre attitude some people have that they think their thoughts or opinions are in any way relevant to someone's life choices? He doesn't know you exist, he'll do what is best for him, as all of us here would.
Think some on here should go and be a journo. Seems like a lot of people are sat around, scratching their arse and complaining on a forum when they could clearly be out there doing a far better job.
Why makes you think Dan think his thoughts or opinions are relevant for Ronaldo? He is allowed to voice them without thinking Ronaldo cares.
Nobody cares what anybody says really - it's a forum.
Yeah I agree. Him leaving for suadi Arabia (or anywhere really) will probably help us in the long term.
I really doubt the Saudi links are true though
For 30 million I’ll carry Ronnie on my back all the way to Saudi Arabia, the rich bastards.
Weird that we’re not announcing Eriksen yet.

i hope you’re right about Antony coming to United!
Eriksen will be today, possibly tomorrow
Hey man, some details are sorted but other details are not sorted. It's as clear as mud ffs

And we're still "hoping"...
Being the richest sportsman or whatever doesn’t translate to not wanting to make more money. At 37, after two decades of playing at the highest level, and being the best at it, “respect” should be the last thing on his mind. Guy has a big family too.
Passing up on €250M for two seasons would be insane
Mental! He has a big family, needs another 1/4 billion!
For £300m will he really care?
