Renato Sanches

We paid the bulk of the fee for Mangala, Bony, Sterling etc. Half of that fee is add-ons and if he actually fulfills them, then who can say he won't be worth it?

Is it Genuinely £63M all in if he succeeds? Still ridiculous if so as its setting a silly precedent, this player could be world class so we want an extra £30M+ he's 18 at the end of the day. Sterling transfer for us could end up embarrassing for the club s we mostly bought potential. Transfer fees as a whole are just silly. I'll just accept that

We basically bought the potential immediately. Bayern are potentially paying if he reaches his potential. Ridiculous sum but certainly beats paying huge money upfront for a young player.

We really can't win with transfers can we?
Close the deal early and we've been bent over, delay for a better deal and we're incompetent negotiators who nearly lost the player.

I'm not stating, and haven't stated, that we are incompetent negotiators. It's more amazement at how swiftly they get business done when they want a player and it's reciprocated. To be honest, I presume half of it is the selling party being arseholes who play hardball with us.

Seems to be suggesting Mourinho won't be heading to United next season.

The rumour is they couldn't afford him no matter what.

If they fail to get CL, Louis gets the boot and Giggs gets the job. They cant afford anyone else as they have to pay off Louis.

If they get CL, they cant afford to fire Louis. They found themselves stuck in a bit of a pickle, and Jose wasn't happy at their flip flopping apparently.

Not clued up about United rumours but sounds good to me. Wouldn't surprise me if van Gaal stayed with a 5th place & FA cup win. My assumption has been United want Mourinho from the end of next season rather than this one. Would love them to end up with Giggs in charge though.

I tihnk you're seriously underestimating United's financial clout there.

Giggs is either too much of a bottler or too smart (whichever side your bread's buttered) to take the top job, in their current shambolic state, and risk damaging his godlike status with the scum's glory hunting "fans," in my opinion.
