KDB doesn't have Bruno numbers in terms of goals but he is still considered the better midfielder. He doesn't have to be a midfielder who scores goals regularly, what we need is a potent striker and good midfielders to supply the assist regularly..
I love Bruno but he is 31years old and looks to be struggling in Amorim system, it would be crazy if the Club turn down #£100m bid.
I'm not choosing Bruno over the club's quest for rebuild, it's Manchester United first for me before anything else..

That £100m or plus of it is looking like a big amount until we get it and the club blows it on players with half the mentality required to survive at this club who'll crumble before anyone says jack

Is selling Bruno at his age for such amount good? Definitely yes but is selling Bruno at this time and replacing him adequately,possible?, It's a very risky proposition whether anyone wants to believe it or not..Two things can be true..

When we had possibility of Champions League football that 100m seemed more attractive. Now that there is no European football it will be even more difficult to attract good players.

The crucial question should not be whether 100m for Bruno is a good deal, because it is. The crucial question is will the club use the Bruno money wisely, cos if we sell Bruno and buy Mount and VDB type flops we are finished.
......we don't need to spend the money this coming season, save it for next season. Stat-wise Bruno is a solid player, but eyes-wise, he is just a lucky average player with good numbers.

He nags too much and can lose ball wrecklessly. He ain't a type that dictate or ochestrate game for the team.

Sell him for €100m without blinking at all.

The problem is getting £100m for Bruno would require spending equal or higher amount to replace his numbers..See how much Liverpool are paying for Wirtz.. Bruno's numbers are insane plus his constant availability, in the current market, we get that money, we'll need to spend it to replace his numbers..

And this recruitment thing is where the problem lies for this club, WE HAVE TO STOP BUYING PLAYERS FOR A MANAGER AND START BUYING FOR MANCHESTER UNITED..That's why our rebuilding is taking a lifetime to complete..Buy for Mourinho, Buy for Ole, Buy for ETH and now Buy for Amorim, wash, rinse and repeat.. Never ending black hole..
We need Bruno's numbers distributed among the players. We need at least two of our players having 10+ goals and 10+ assists every season. Football does not start and end with Bruno

Or is there where you read that football starts and ends with Bruno?

We need to spend most of it this next season or you want us to relegate ni?

You want to take Bruno from this team and not spend money on players.
Remember that Rashford, Sancho, Antony are also out.

If we sell Bruno and those ones also leave, we will need to replace them now so that the next season you are talking about won’t be in the Championship.

If the club decides to save the money for the future and we start struggling, won’t you come back here and be lamenting that they sold Bruno our best player and didn’t support Amorim enough with adequate replacements?

Gyokeres is going for 65m...Liverpool just signed Frimpong for 35m...

There's value in the market if we negotiate well and go for the right kind of players.

One area we should not forget is the huge money the club will be saving if the likes of Rashford, Sancho, Antony, Casemiro, Eriksen, Maguire, Lindelöf, Shaw, Hojlund and possible Bruno are sold or released...

We can get like 6-7 very good players for 250-300m with modest wages if we go for the right players and negotiate well...

The Delap deal was supposed to be seamless - we only needed to pay his release clause but what happened? Man ditched the broke and chaotic 15th place relegation battlers for Chelsea.

Unless what we are reading in the papers are not entirely correct sha

I have a feeling that Gyokeres will be the one. I had thought Arsenal will go in for him but apparently they have prioritised Sesko.

If we get Gyokeres after the Cunha deal, that will be a massive upgrade of our attack. We need to look at our midfield and possibly goal keeping department next.

So if we really wanted him, we would have activated his release clause. It's not one of those deals that should be dragged, it was just 30m. Pay and go. I don't usually believe everything I read online

We drag deals for weeks and months, then come back to say the players ditched the club. Even this Cunha, the deal may not happen if a more serious club enters negotiation.

There is no way we can get rid of all these players you have mentioned in one transfer window o. Just comot mind

Every year, the media is always filled up with Manchester United supposed targets and many people still believe these news. Many of them were not serious interests, probably just enquiries, especially with the way we do business in this club

.......I know fans and the board might be apprehensive, but personally, I wouldn’t mind playing the kids who are ready.

Defense: Keep De Ligt and promote Kukonki and Fredricson. Plus Heaven and Yoro to the squad, making five center-backs if we sell Licha, Maguire, and Shaw.

Wing-Backs: Promote Kamason to compete with Mazraoui for the right wing-back position. Let Diego Leon, Dorgu and Amass compete for the left wing-back position. Sell Dalot for a solid fee.

Central Midfield: Promote Tyler Fletcher and Kone to the first team. Keep Collyer and Ugarte in the squad. Sell Bruno and Casemiro.

RMF: Buy a solid left-footed player to compete with Amad. Promote Lacey as an additional option.

LMF: Keep Mount, add Mainoo to the position and include Cunha. This should cover us. Sell Zirkzee and Garnacho.

Striker: Buy a solid player like Osimhen. Keep Obi in the squad. Sell Højlund.

Goalkeeper: Replace all the current Goalkeepers.

If we are unable to convince "ordinary" Delap to join us from lowly Ipswich , is it Gyokeres or Osihmen that would now join easily?

Like y'all see it, I also want to believe we were never interested in Delap sha.

That's what I am saying...

Our current 15th position/No CL football status would most likely mean we would be paying over the odds before a player like Osihmen would join.

1. That 30m for Delap could be considered over the odds for Delap too.
2. The same Oshimen is having the same problem with other clubs playing champions league.

Activating release clause does not mean automatically the player has to come. The player still has final say on whether he will sign for the club that activates the release clause.

Since there were multiple clubs ready to activate the release clause, Delap held off on going into talks with any specific club until he was sure which one could offer him Champions League football.

With that defence and midfield you might just relegate the club.

De Ligt who is injury prone with 4 academy/teenage CBs.
Ugarte whose 2nd touch is a sliding tackle with 3 untested academy/teenage CMs.

I know the decision rest on the player. If we were keen, we'd have also offered to pay the release clause. At least 30m is not in anyway close to the amount we are rumored to be paying for Cunha which means that if he was a priority signing, we'd have made the move since.

Is Delap better or more expensive than Cunha? There's nothing out there that proves Delap is better, so if we can attract Cunha and pay over 60m to get him, doesn't it tell you that we still have the pull?
