Live and let live.

 

This will be fish and chip paper in a few days. 

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. A collective meltdown over Nicky Maynard. I watched the Maguire transfer thread reach more than 300 pages. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.

Just bumped into Johnny Johnson in the town, he is adamant that Maguire is staying.

I think this article is by someone who Man U fans think is reliable and is saying as all other journalists with actual info are that we are still quite far apart on valuation.

A well connected BBC journalist, like the well connected John Percy, both saying they remain apart on valuation?

 

This can't be true as we've been told it's "done deal" and "medicals have been arranged" and "personal terms have been agreed" multiple times over the past few weeks, usually by faceless Twitter accounts.

Its true though. Who needs quality when you have quantity

So it just points out absolute sweet F A and what everyone already knows already. Massive WELL DONE bbc sport for reporting pretty much nothing

Simon Stone has written very similar things about both Dan James and Aaron Wan-Bissaka this summer, and then a few days later they've been announced.

 

He is a bit like John Percy - likely briefed by the club to stem the optimism just in case the deal collapses in its late stages.

 

I think it's probably all but done - time will tell, but I can't see him being here on Friday night.

Di Marzio has said that we've agreed a fee with you for Harry Maguire. 

I’m going to have another ban here, over you again. But it’s worth it. I’ll be the martyr the others deserve.

 

**** off back under your rock. I’d have blocked you day 1, it’s clear you are a trolling ****. 

 

I honestly couldn't care care less if he stays or goes, but you and your clubs arrogance and clear influence of the red top shit rags is pathetic. We’ve set the price, we don’t need to sell. So when one of our solid sources of information says “no new bids” or “no change to the situation”, then an Italian pressbot isn’t going to know something different.

 

you sir are a cnut, fcuk off back to London.

Isn't he from Bournemouth?

That’s it. That’s the article.

 

Thank you to FT for this opportunity.

[Chocolate Teapot]

My understanding is two major stumbling blocks, most of which won't surprise anyone:

1. The fee, it is not agreed, theres still some considerable distance.

2. The payment terms, man utd want to incentivise a lot of it.

 

Man utd are really confident it will get done, like theres plans already for his unveiling. I think they think theyll either agree the fee and it'll be heavily incentivised, or they'll pay more up front and get it agreed.

 

I'm pretty sure we're not up for that, however Maguire's agent is pushing very very hard and Maguire is indeed quite keen, he'll virtually triple his wages.

 

I think it'll get done. I also dont think Tarkowski or Dunk will be the replacement.

Well if it is likely, hope it is on the best possible version of our terms.

Thanks for the info.

do you reckon if he triples his wages, he might bung me 10 grand to help raising two young kids? if he does he can leave with my blessing!

So as a business transaction

We receive £80m

 

We pay.

Lewis Dunk £45m

Hull 15% £12m

Fee paid £17m

 

we benefit by £6m and lose the best English Central defender for the privilege.....

Which is why this so called 80 million is not silly money like others think it is.  Its why the valuation is what it is.

Thanks for the info. Any thoughts on whether they are wanting to sell before committing? Time is of course the limiting factor here and I hope the deadline we have given is fast approaching. Not particular happy at the thought of going into a new season without having included a starting CB in any of the preseason fixtures... 

 

John Percy seems pretty dismissive of the whole thing right now.

This is more or less what I’ve been assuming the whole summer. Though I am genuinely confident that we won’t sell at this late stage. There’s exactly NINE days to go and I think we’d be extremely foolish to sell now.

As for Harry,  ....he is a Leicester player and will get his head down and play. He isn’t unhappy. 

 

I was told that the deadline was Sunday just gone, but who knows. 

 

Ive also been told that Tarkowski is the replacement of choice and then Dunk. Burnley and Brighton aware.

Maguire can be keen on the move but also not unhappy. He's in a good position whatever happens tbh.  The last two comments from AF were 'I thinks' so thats his opinion not knowledge spilled from the camp? Thats how I read it anyway

We're mental for even entertaining offers just over a week before the transfer deadline.

100% we will not be buying a defender for 40m if we sell Maguire.

Correct.

[st albans fox]

My summary

 

Yanited are expecting top to take a personal plea from Harry to allow him to leave for less than we demanded ...... guess it depends where we are with a possible replacement ..... if brendan feels we are well placed with who we can get in then maybe top will agree. 

 

Alternatively, we may have to give Harry an improved wage to soften the blow of him not being allowed to go .....

Let battle commence.

 

The losing ITK will have to do a forfeit.  I suggest several laps of the pitch on the last day of the season as ample punishment.
