Does Southgate even strike you like a manager that knows what he’s doing?

I see names that someone dropped as possible alternative and I laugh. Neres of Ajax, Leon Bailey of Leverkusen (from the same league that Sancho is tearing apart) over Sancho? grin
Quote me so we can debate...Sancho is not the beginning and ending of the world...

Mhkitaryan, Kagawa and Sahin have looked the part in the Bundesliga but when they moved, they were exposed. I don't even want to start with the fact that Sancho seems better on the left lest some of you miscontrue my point to mean I hate him...

The likes of Neres I mentioned will easily share game time with Greenwood thus will not stall his development however, with Sancho and for the amount quoted, he'd command an automatic starting spot and if Rashford and Martial keep producing, Greenwood will find game time hard to come by...I think the board is looking at Greenwood and asking themselves why they need to overpay for Sancho...

Let me categorically state it here that rather than sign Sancho for 120m, I'd rather we sign Upamecano, Reguillon and Tiago all for a combined fee of 120m...

Tiago - 27m
Reguillon - 27m
Upamecano - 60-65m

We should avoid making Sancho a 100m pound player. 90m max.

We already messed up by paying 80m for Maguire and 50m for AWB.
They are the ones calling the shots though. 100mil or you go one side..na we de busy the practice economics.

Runs girl don tell you say till day break na 15k last, you tell her 10k she say make you lock up... You the form strong head like small gen.. the tell am “Can I give 10,500” undecided

Athletico won't even splash half of that

People doesn't know that a new trend will evolve now.

In the last 3-4 years 80% of record signings flopped or are totally average at best especially those around the 100m bracket. Clubs will be very very careful spending 100m+ for any player that is not Certain will hit the ground running. Eg. Mbappe, Neymar, Messi and Ronaldo. Because if you sign 2 of those kind of players and they flop, it will be hard to recover.

Barca has learnt their bitter lesson. Dembele, Griezmann and Coutinho. Now they are going for depay and wijnaldum.
Even madrid are gathering money for Mbappe. I hear people saying they will buy Salah or Mane. Lol Madrid will never try that after their hazard escapade.

I can remember before the lockdown when I said the incoming of Sancho will stall Greenwood development cos he'll have to start every game considering the amount we want to splash on him

Sancho is a quality player but the fee is too much

Players from Dortmund haven't really impressed me lipsrsealed lipsrsealed

Last season, our forward line which didn't even start the season together posed similar stat to that of Liverpool meaning that if our defense hold their own and our midfield chip in with a few goals, we'd be right up there...

With a CB and LB (our most vulnerable position last season) in addition to VDB and possibly Tiago, we'd have plugged the gaping issues in defense and lack of quality bench to replace Pogba and Bruno...

I agree we need another attacker preferably a RWF but if it means signing one will see us close shop for the window, I suggest we bolster other areas of the team with the same amount or even less...

Maturity and handling pressure no be by age (Rashford and Lingard 2019 cheesy), we don't know how Sancho will fare , everything I don read here na assumptions.


Rashford never had a long off form period. Go and check his 2019, he was scoring almost every match when Ole came in, have you forgotten PSG? Last season (2019 leg) Rashford scored 19 goals before January this year. So he was never trolled. Unlike Lingard.
Moreover, in terms of Maturity it's very hard to get a player of Rashford age as mature as he is. In that aspect he is far better than Sancho

If he can deliver the crosses, and has the fitness to run down that side for 90 minutes, we should go for him

I will kick her out. Na you runs girl fit bully. LOL

I am possibly the biggest Sancho fan here but that does not mean we should just pay WHATEVER Dortmund want.

If Man Utd had endless funds like PSG and Man City maybe, but from what Woodward said and from our transfer window so far funds are limited SO the money should be spent wisely.

Paying too much for Sancho means possibly not strengthening elsewhere. With the way other clubs have gone about their transfer window this off season Sancho and VDB alone won't be enough.

That was the reason Chelsea announced Havertz as 72m pounds even when Leverkusen are insisting they sold him for €100m. They refuse to give that tag "record signing" that tag brings too much scrutiny for any EPL team, let alone a global behemoth like United. 90m is ok for Sancho. We can even do a Chelsea and lower the price during Announcement. Without pressure I am certain Sancho will succeed, but with pressure hmmm. I am afraid.

but we aren’t doing that, we still the chook head put..Dortmund wants to sell for a prize we don’t agree with, the logical thing to do is to look else where.. but we still the form agidi.

Other fans are waiting for us to enter the gbege, so that epic memes will emerge. Even if we buy him that amount, we should just say, undisclosed fee.

Well i agree with you that there is the option of looking elsewhere. I think what is happening is Woodward and Dortmund are waiting to see who blinks first.
My suspicion is that we will get him late in the transfer window for just less than 100m pounds. I don't want that 100m pound tag.
