KWP was clearly way down the list, and he's reportedly been asking for 90+k a week which we just can't pay for a squad player. Frustrating as it looks like we've lost a player to a rival - but we really haven't.
tell ya what, if his Mrs thought the criticism he got from a small group of Everton fans was tough, wait until he's getting abuse from not only a global United fan base who demand Galactico's, but from the world wide football media because they will be brutal on him.
i can't believe i'm saying this but Keane resigning on a reduced wage makes sense. We aren't likely to sign better 4th choice CB without spending money and I'd like to see all funds going towards improving the attack.
exactly. He reports what he's told and 9 time out of 10 he's told things for a purpose - agents trying to get improved terms or to get some traction on a player, even clubs use him. You also need to keep in mind that by the time he's actually tweeted something the situation has probably already...
As for Romano, he tends to jump the gun with stories - especially when things are quiet. Only last week he basically had Moyes parading Kyle Walker around in a blue shirt claiming it;s a done deal.
I read we've offered better terms but Fulham's new offer is a lot closer now (still not matching though). It'll come down to what the player wants, as someone has already said he might have a family and is already settled down there... equally he may be keen for a new challenge. He's 29, he's...
things are happening though right? Charly signed, sounds like Gana is all but done. We've been negotiating with all out of contract players in some form or another and it sounds like - if somewhat optimistically - we are making moves with the likes of Grealish and Delap both approached, All...
it wouldn't surprise me. The lad has been terribly advised. I'm sure he'll have interest but no one is paying him what we were offering. And given that most top teams now recruit based on stats - his are awful. His goals return, Xg, his fitness - everything suggests you don't waste money on him...
More often than not, Moyes signed the right characters, especially when picking up good players that had fallen by the wayside. For me that's the big thing that has been lacking from our recruitment over the last decade. We've stumbled on a Richarlison occasionally but we've had some absolute...
this. I'm under no illusions that if someone offers enough we will sell and that kind of profit - just on a PSR front gives us some serious room to rebuild the squad. Chelsea aren't United. If they want him, they'll pay whatever it takes.
If anyone bids it'll be Chelsea or Man City. Newcastle will go back in for the lad from Palace and United are in freefall. No one else in the league would be able to afford him.
