3 respected posters here o. Especially Eph12. The guy was so cocksure of Pepe's success he wanted to fight people here while defending his main man.

Well such is life. I hope he has learned from his mistakes.

GloryIsaac:
Before we mistakenly start turning Amala here...

The point of getting Sancho is to sort out the Right Wing.

So pitting our first team guys against other teams is completely missing the point.

Manchester United’s Right-wing is DEAD.

Greenwood is a makeshift
Daniel James is a makeshift
Juan Mata is a makeshift
Lingard is a makeshift
Periera is a makeshift

Which means United’s attack won’t be as fluid as the coach desires. Greenwood is only 18, he is not expected to start every match.

Next in line is another makeshift, Daniel .J. Bolt.

Every club United is competing against has a natural on the right side of their attack.

afrodoc2:
Now that we have handed Eph12 the L like a crown of glory can we go back to the Sancho fee debate?

Leyqute:
.

afrodoc2:
And?

Putting someone in a list of 5,6 options doesn't mean much. Like the people mentioning Perisic today as an alternative or dropping a list of 4,5 alternatives to Sancho.

It is when people start guaranteeing success like you did with Pepe that we know it is serious.

Here is my assessment of AWB before we bought him.

Let us see your assessment of Pepe.

afrodoc2:
You guys convinced me. The question was who brought his name here.

After you and Pietro hyped him to high heavens and you even guaranteed that he will be a hit and dared anyone to quote you i thought you guys knew what you were saying. No vex i won't trust you again.

Leyqute:
Eph12
Elrony
Pietrorick

Oya come out and defend yasef

afrodoc2:
Tuanzebe is already our player so we shouldn't even count him as incoming. Your list is actually quite good, and i think quite achievable.

Another list could be De Ligt, Wan Bissaka, Ndombele, Bruno Fernandes, Jadon Sancho.

Your list would be cheaper and more realistic.

afrodoc2:
I just had to dodge the L and give it to you gold-plated after you dropped my name for no reason.

Pietrorick and you were the 2 people that first hyped Pepe to me. You guys should sort the L out between each other.

Thank God for receipts.

dubylhover:
The loss of 3 semi finals doesn't tell you anything?

weedtaker:
I don quote you o.

afrodoc2:
These were the people that preached the gospel of Pepe to me. Can you please read out their names?

dubylhover:
We still end up playing like last season,we need an x factor attacker to turn our draws into wins..

dubylhover:
I already know how it ends if we don't get him

afrodoc2:
LOL. I was never Team Pepe anything. I was actually one of the last people to comment on Pepe on this thread and only put him on a short list of possible buys based on you guys' recommendations.. I don't watch Ligue 1 when PSG is not playing and didn't really know him until you his fanboys said we must buy him by fire by force.

weedtaker:
that’s not the problem though, The problem is how he turned overrated overnight

Panther7:
Thank you ooo
The narrative they are painting one would think cheaper means better. If cheaper means better Dan James should be a world beater by now

dubylhover:
Toh,its left to the decision makers oo..after all we all saw how they delayed getting Bruno,I'm sure if we check well,we would see some of our fans who supported not getting Bruno initially because of his pass completion stats

CapitalCee:
You have now said what is expected. You have admitted he has strength and haven't integrated into the team. Initially it was that he can play anywhere and can cause damage anywhere. Well I was surprised at the position Lampard played him. But when I saw Mount and RLC I understood. Havertz do play RW for Leverkusen that was the reason Lampard played him there and decided to stick RLC in the AM position. But when Pulisic and Ziyech come in, more better width players. Havertz will come in to the AM position. Remember that Kovacic will also return so he will be comfortable contributing to attack, knowing that Kante and Kovacic are behind him.

CapitalCee:
I didn't look at his stats, because he didn't score or assist, so not needed. My point is he looks leggy and disinterested. His overall play was not good. That was why people are complaining of playing him out of position. If a player plays well you will clearly see it. If he continues with performances like that of last night, them there is a big problem for him

dubylhover:
Na you watch highlights,I'm not judging based on highlights

dubylhover:
To be realistic,no matter who we sign this season,I don't think we are title contenders for now

dubylhover:
I prefer not to speak

elrony:
This man sef , how Fred wan dey priced at 108m?

elrony:
Juan Mata

dubylhover:
To closing the points between us and the eventual champions,maybe also taking us past semi finals

elrony:
We are on course to having a functioning system with that RW fixed.

dubylhover:
We have a fairly good attacking system,we could actually score goals now,Sancho coming would massively improve us

weedtaker:
you don’t think we have a functioning system? even you were impressed with our performance against Sevilla and Copenhagen, no?

elrony:
Manchester United is not begging BVB with 120mil, we just want a fair price with add ons that's all

GloryIsaac:
They’ll still bite it as the season goes on

If we win with just penalties, the team might get complacent.. you know winning matches with penalties is not sustainable for the season..

dubylhover:
This is the summary of the whole saga,its what I've been saying,if you know you can't pay that amount for him in this inflated market despite his abilities,then walk away not turning yourselves into a laughing stock
