I think its probably going to be Tottenham. They can afford 40m, can afford to pay Sancho's wages unlike lot of other clubs and are a big enough team for Sancho to be interested in joining.

We are going to be covering about 150k a week of his wages wherever he ends up, if not more
Okay so if a manager gets pumped 3-0 they should be sacked?
My point is they can pay him 200-250k without breaking their wage structure and he could be interested in joining them taking a paycut. I guess it really depends on how much he wants to play vs how much he cares about that extra 100-150k.
Some rage, tell me why they don't just sack him first then?
I wish I knew pal.
Haha you're leaving out a bit of context there, no?
You left context out too to be fair.
Well yeah, I was raging!
There is a difference between deserve to be sacked and disrespecting someone.
I dont think many even Ten Hag iners would have said much if he got sacked, most people understand this season has been terrible.
The issue is not about whether he should be sacked or not, its the manner how he has been treated.
Also, this is a new board, you have to come in with authority and show you mean business, INEOS are not.
Exactly. A guy that’s ended our 6 year trophy wait with 2 back to back trophies does not deserve to be treated like this. No matter what you think of him.
Do you have details of how Erik has been treated?
Same applies to the INEOS observation.
Are you involved with the club?
Would appreciate if you could share?
The fact that we are in mid june and our new owners havent even manage to decide if ETH should stay on as manager or not, should answer the first question
surely better for Ten Haf they're considering keeping him? since every other manager who by the way haven't had as much leeway already considering Ole and Jose were sacked Mid season, Van Gaal had a better league campaign and was sacked pretty much in the 89th minute of the FA Cup final he also won.
this idea hes being horribly treated irks me. We served up the shittest most inept football i've EVER seen united play this year, he's lucky to be in the job this fecking long
It doesn’t.
You don’t know what they’ve decided, or discussed with Erik.
You’re speculating
I agree with all of this. If he is sad about the way he's been treated then he he can leave. And preferably he would take Antony with him.
Drag it out less compensation to pay perhaps??
Sure I read he gets about 9mil. FA cup and secured European football.
I think we only receive a tribunal fee if it's a domestic transfer, so I would assume $0
I thought overseas transfers do too? As long as he meets criteria, didn’t think the “where” mattered (not 100%)
That is not the issue - if he had been sacked within 3-4 days of the fa cup final - he couldn't have complained. But it's been weeks - he deserves to know. It's shambolic.
Sir Jim made a statement during one of his first interviews that they (Ineos) would rather walk to the right solution than run to the wrong one. I think everyone missed this.
People are also ignoring the fact that Ineos's football structure has not been in place because of all the hires being on gardening leave.
Thirdly, no one knows what's been agreed and discussed with ETH and what hasn't. For all we know, he may have been told that they are taking a fresh look and considering the best candidate for the role, of which, he's also in consideration.
Unlike others roles where the people occupying them previously where deemed not be best in class and immediately sacked, he's been given the benefit of doubt, enough to still be considered an option, even after the shocking season he's had and the fact that his fingerprints are all over the poor transfers we've made over the past two years.
One thing I know is that ETH has been quick to chuck the previous management under the bus for most of the issues going on. He's been saying to anyone that'll listen that injuries and the previous leadership team's structure being a mess were the problem.
He's been here for two years yet we cannot see what style of football he's trying to play and had some shocking results and performances, yet tthat's all the previous leadership teams fault.
Of course I'm not saying this is fact, iit's just another way to look at things.
All that being said, if Ineos hires Southgate then all bets are off for me haha.
No but I can see whats happening...
They have not given him any assurances, he said it himself post FA cup, SJR has refused to even speak about him, didn't acknowledge the manager at all post FA cup, giving credit to players and staff.
Its been 2.5 week post FA cup and they still dont know what they are doing with him. I hope that this is now how you want your employer or would want to treat your employee.
I am not involved with the club.
Does ETH not count as part of the staff?
I wonder if they realize that delaying the decision hurts their chances in the transfer market, or if they're doing this deliberately so that they don't have to spend money in the summer.
"Everton’s Jarrad Branthwaite is among those being monitored by United, with the Merseyside club valuing the defender at a minimum £60m."
Was £75m, now £60m. Keep it coming...
Wouldn’t have many/any complaints of the maximum was £60m
Yeah it was 80m+ at one point.
If we start paying reasonable fees for players and sell well this summer I'd be very optimistic about INEOS ownership.
I am. I think it's very clear what type of players we need in the squad given the type of football we want to play and the injury history of some of our players. The current consensus is:
#1 Pacy, tall, aggressive RCB to partner Martinez.
#2 DM to round out the Mainoo, Bruno midfield.
#3 Starting LB. More of a Shaw or Walker type than an out and out wing back.
#4 CF rotation for Hojlund
Anything else on top for depth and rotation is a bonus.
We have reasonable links to each position so I assume transfer conversations started already.
Signing Branthwaite for £60m or more would be the antithesis of a well executed window, there are option available for less without the PL/Young English premium.
