At some point people need to understand that it’s not 2002 anymore. £160k is not a special wage in the PL. Besides we see Utd wages reported as higher than they are often end up being.

U gar te be kidding, mate.
What a difference to having proper people behind the scene if all these tweets were to believe it’s looking great
Its negotiating... are we just meant to go from 35m to 65m?
Clubs can demand high fees, but its not as easy to turn it down when the money is there in front of them. You also hope to unsettle the player who sees the chance at making the jump to a bigger club.
Yeah and also suggestion (loosely I know) we have made a contract offer to Rabiot. Would still take him provided the demands fit within INEOS wage structure
is "INEOS wage structure" even a thing? Feels as though people think these guys will revolutionise everything. Either way moot disclaimer, no? I mean, at this point how would he even join if otherwise?
Even then isn't that overpay, what's his current wage at Everton?
Bore off
This is just as stupid as the guy you responded to.. Maguire has never been magnificent in his time for United.. His first two seasons were good, but not magnificent when we were playing to his game, but as soon as Ole went for more attacking system he fell apart.. the last two years he has been mostly good when called upon, but not magnificent... hi attitude the last couple of seasons has been great, when you think whats happend with him. Also funny you you say hes the only one who can keep fit after a few years with many small injueies, and missing the Euro24.
Overall he has done a decent job, but it is just as stupid to say hes been magnificent as that he is the worst buy ever
I’m dizzy. Big week this, feels like.
Wow, they signed him for 90m and we're getting him for half price? Robbery!
Guys. What is going on. How is this club doing all this? We should publicly flog glazers for keeping us useless for years. feck them. Seriously.
Great stuff! Hold your resolve Everton. Don't let United bully you into selling your 'prize asset'!... Please...
Oh give over
Oke that’s fine. Now move on to other players, no club will pay more than 50 million for Brantwaite.
Especially as Branthwaite is said to be on £30.000 a week - and the best paid players at Everton are just above £100.000. Easy to be unsettled for a player when that is in front of you
Toney still an option
Not at all, my thought is Everton arent likely to budge on their valuation at all in this case (be delighted if Im wrong) so the low balling bids are only going to make them stick to their guns even more.
Are you on a wum?
The art of the bargain..
Bit more info from the same Athletic article:
Had properly great stats in one of the FMs. I haven’t followed this Euros much but have heard good things about him, but going by usual Turkish players, he’ll add aggressiveness and fight to our team.
How much is Calafiori going for? Cheaper option than Branthwaite. I’d be happy if we went for Kadioglu aswell. Looks like he could be quality.
Why would we want 3 CFs?
Really? I mean, really?
Cole, Yorke, Sheringham, Solskjaer helped us win the treble. If we are ever looking to reach those heights again we need to start building that kind of squad again.
That's four strikers for two positions, no one plays with two strikers anymore
Cole, Yorke, Sheringham, Solskjaer
Tevez, Rooney, Berba, Chicharito
Van Persie, Falcao, Chicharito, Welbeck.
Cantona, Cole, McClair
We’ve always usually had multiple options. It’s not good to rely on the same player. Last two seasons proved that with Weghorst and Hojlund playing all the time because Martial was knackered and Marcus isn’t a CF.
Calafiori
Yea but we don't play with 2 strikers when Bruno's around and have Rashford, too. And most importantly, there are too many other positions to fix that we can't afford signing two expensive CFs. If we signed two CBs, a LB, a RB, two DMs/CMs and a RW, we can start talking about getting a third CF.
The first and fourth combinations were when we played with two up top.
Hernandez never played with Tevez. Rooney, Berbatov and Tevez played together for one season. We couldn't keep Tevez happy and ended up losing out on him.
Welbeck played two league games for us that season before being sold to Arsenal on deadline day. Hernandez played one league game that season before being loaned out to Real Madrid for the rest of that campaign.
Point being, Zirkzee and Højlund is sufficient.
Disagree.
Nothing to disagree about really.
Maybe we can though? Remember we haven’t sold anyone yet!
Yes really.. I fully believe that saying that Maguire has been magnificent is just as wrong as saying that he has been the worst ever signing..
