Or the press setting up a narrative for when he fails to rock up at utd?

Smacks of the Van Persie situation to me this. Bacon face was determined to go out on a high and win a final league title before retiring and they needed a top, top striker in RVP. We were bidding as well and pulled out when the fees got too steep, and look where it ended. He was unplayable at times, got them 26 league goals and the title.

If Harland goes to the scum, we could be looking at a repeat. We must pay whatever is necessary to get him, or at least to make sure the rags do not.

My fear is we have never paid really top money for anyone - not compared to the likes of Real, PSG or the scum - and if the bidding gets like £100m+ we will drop out again.

We haven't done too badly with such poor negotiating.

nobody in world football pays that in covid-19 hit and world pandemic ? its just not happening unless your utd
manchester city could break the clubs wage bill in wanting a marquee signing. but it also would need a outside sponsor to back city like puma and they pay a big chunk of his wages in shirt sales and advertising

i really think united don't want haaland but they want sancho and are playing games in getting the transfer fee up so city pay up. united know city have a sell on with sancho so its a dirty trick in a way ?

stories is city may wave the sell on fee if they get haaland for under £100million so united have to pay the full transfer fee for sancho

I can see that happening

Rumours Chelsea want to include Werner in the deal to bring cost down

A) Would Dortmund take him? B) Would he want to go? C) Haven’t his wages increased recently which would mean he’d have to take a pay cur again? I think sometimes we forget that you have to get these players to agree to go the other way. I think it’s probably irrelevant but who knows, maybe I’m wrong
