We're so transfexually active right now 
Agreed, he was overpriced but he's definitely had a few decent seasons here.
For a world record fee he most definitely has been one of the worst, context matters.
Sure it does mate
Yep exactly. He's a good defender in a certain set up, he's definitely not been one of the worst, ridiculous thing to say.
He's not. We're better off waiting for more reliable journalists to report a submitted bid.
Personally I’d like Branthwaite, De Ligt and Kerkez to reinforce the defensive options thus allowing Maguire and Lindelof to depart
Maguire - massive overpay
Fofana - massive crock
Gvardiol - jurys out but so far not worth the price.
Well, thats cute.
I can't remember the last time we were so busy in a transfer window. We might have our business done in time for the pre-season tour at this rate.
I’m not sure about Fofana, but Maguire and Gvardiol had serious international experience before making the transfers they are using as benchmarks.
None of those fees were paid off the back of a single season in which their clubs barely avoided relegation.
If we are after 2 cbs surely maguire is off?
Or lindelof?
Or lindelof?
Weird how we are actually bidding for good players and not insane prices.
You would assume Lindelof first, then Slabbers out on the basis we can get Branthwaite for a reasonable price.
Leaving: de Ligt, Martinez, Evans, Branthwaite, Kambwala and Shaw in an absolute pinch.
£160k per week for Amad and ETH hardly plays him?
It is a tad concerning that we are being linked with two center backs and a winger but absolute radio silence on midfielders where we are arguably still weakest. We basically have one as good as he is, he's a kid.
Branthwaite no?
It’s not radio silence though is it.
We’ve been very widely reported as in negotiations with PSG for Ugarte. He’s still playing in the Copa America so it was never going to be finalised before that’s over.
Has anyone wondered that we are making bids for players that are not starters for club or country ?
For Branthwaite, not Amad.
Err we’re being heavily linked with Ugarte
Now come on. We bought Antony to be the worst signing of all time. Maguire has been decent overall but counting the fee a little below par. He’s good in certain set-ups and not so good in others. We shouldn’t have gone for him though. Think he was a downgrade on Smalling, truth be told.
Thread is filled with tweets about Ugarte, no?
Absolutely not. Harry has been magnificent for us especially before his injury (missing EL final) and just recently. He’s our only defender currently who can stay fit, and despite having the captaincy taken away he has been very dignified about it, and lead this team by example.
Radio silence? Ugarte is a midfielder is he not?

Lead his team by example to an 8th placed finish? Right. The levels of spin on this place would put Alastair Campbell to shame.
What was the point in this bid seriously? Everton have already rejected one stupidly low bid and no doubt indicated what they value him at and that we werent anywhere near their valuation. So we make another bid miles away from anything they would accept??
I mean it's all part of the game. United aren't going to pay £70m because he's not worth that to them. They're trying to get Everton to engage and maybe start to negotiate, but at the moment they're just flat out rejecting.
They'll probably make one more bid where the base fee is £50m and if Everton don't make any kind of counter then they'll most likely leave it there.
We can't have it both ways, either we massively overpay by offering silly amounts which are raised by the seller negotiating, including the utd tax, or we unsettle the player with semi serious bids and then negotiate. It does appear that our Jared is having his head turned. Balls in his court now before a serious 3rd bid.
Think I'm getting ugarte confused with someone else because I thought he was a defender.
Not his fault the idiots paid that much for him.
I can't believe the new regime would consider paying £160K a week for Brainwave. I thought that's what we were trying to get away from.
I'm calling bullshit on that rumour.
