Interesting mou is trying desperately to sign bale but bale won't even talk to mou.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Clickbait faith. They don't even get first dibs either. We do.

What are Matic to United odds like?

That seems the likeliest signing for United. Since Lukaku was signed almost 3 weeks ago, it's a massive concern that nothing else has been done.

$1.62, $7 to stay.

Eh it's not that bad. We addressed our two biggest needs, I'd like a new DM but with Carrick staying its not a must have and I'd rather back Martial to have an impact then get a new winger.

Yeah I'd love it if United sort of gave up on Martial by signing a new winger. Reckon he'll come good if given the appropriate opportunity in the first team.

I reckon his good form in the preseason has brought him back into Mou's main plans.

Easy to forget how young he still is.

You guys can't afford him.
Poor club.

Can't believe Mou is complaining about excessive spending in this transfer market. He's one of the biggest spenders of all time!!

We'll take him if you don't want him

He's just trollin IMO.

I don't want a new winger at all, we have enough depth in the position. I think we need a DM now rather than going into the season without an upgrade, though. Carrick is a fantastic footballer but despite the captaincy, I don't see him playing as a regular starter. There's still two weeks to go before the season begins and a month to make a new addition, hopefully.

Mou's spending on the likes of Pogba ,arguably created the massive price hikes for other players..

 

[RossFC]

First it was Sterling, then it was Pogba, those 2 signings IMO inflated the market a bit.

 

[Magma]

one or two signings have little to no impact on inflating the market.

 

[Zidane98]

Disagree on that one. When a player sells for far above his real value other clubs follow suit and inflate their transfer fee demands accordingly.

£50m was unthinkable for a fullback 2 years ago. City have just dropped that twice on 2 fullbacks both of whom aren't exactly Cafu or Roberto Carlos. Expect to see fullbacks changing hands regularly for 40-50m.

 

[moomba]

I blame the side that paid £35m for Andy Carroll.

 

[Fwoy]

I blame the side that paid £35m for Andy Carroll.

Which was the fault of the team who paid £50m for Torres

 

[WealstoneRaider]

Come on we all know it's down to the club who paid £1m for Trevor Francis

 

[jd2010]

We should probably take the blame spending £8m on ****ing Rebrov

 

[typeclub]

The money spent on Danilo will be money well spent. People will be looking to him as a barometer pretty soon. Shrewd business by City as he will add a lot to their team

real value isnt a thing. everyone's value is how much anyone is willing to pay.

a lot of fees were unthinkable at an arbitrary moment in time as well.
