jock2612 Posted 26 July 2019 Share Posted 26 July 2019 I think the time has already been reached where we say no . There is no guarantee that any club we approach for a replacement will agree to sell and the roles would then be reversed with us paying over the odds trying to get a deal done. 90M is a fair price in these circumstances.Don't think there is anything imminent or he would not be in the squad for tomorrow. If he is withdrawn then ............ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesta2014 Posted 26 July 2019 Share Posted 26 July 2019 Maguire tweeted about a game for the first time this season after Tuesday. Been very quiet football related until then, deadline very close now?

I think we could be okay but my feeling is we will try to replace/spend the money elsewhere. A week still leaves us a little short ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree we can't just roll.over and show our tummies....but it's not good business practice to rub their nose in it either and start moving goalposts Unfortunately pragmatism is better than principle sometimes. It's naive to think any top flight club would do a favour for any other top flight club, it's dog eat dog. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not naïve. It's business. If we said £75m no later than 10 days before the window....then move the goalposts to £90m - karma will, one day, get you back. There will be a time we need a drinky, de last, Matty James, Jesse lingard again. It works both ways. I'd never, ever deal.with sporting Lisbon (or whoever it was) that upped the fee for Silva at the last minute and caused the delay. Unless, of course, it was to rip them off.

If they're lowballing us by a significant amount then they're the ones with the problem tbh. Far as I can tell we set our stall out early, told them the price and haven't budged since. The deeper in the window it goes the tougher we have to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But upping the price is a mistake unless we were very clear to both Maguire AND Utd that this would happen after a certain date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
