Ahead of the euros he thinks hes more likely to get in the england team by staying here than moving. Hes close to his family here which has a big impact. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re in such a mess throughout the club, from the playing staff up to Woodward. And it’s all their own making - Fergie gave them 5 years notice that he wanted to retire, and they failed to plan so badly it’s almost as if this mess was his plan all along. We only finished 14 points behind them - we should be aiming to capitalise on their squalor and finish above them next season. It may be true. But you really would struggle to find a man u fan that would even accept it let alone agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont get me wrong he’s a good player. But his attitude stinks to me. Goes missing and doesn’t put a shift in enough. ill never forget when he shot against Man City when albrighton was in space, and that’s the just the most recent example - there have been others. i just question his attitude and wether he’s a team player. And for that reason I’d accept a silly bid all day long. probably going to get shot down here for having an unpopular opinion. And I accept not many will agree, it’s just how I feel. He's young with a bit of swagger about him and confident in his own ability (which he has plenty of) people are to quick to shoot players down because of there personality plus he's only 21. I bet you would prefer Matty James playing right. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Flair Posted 5 June 2019 Share Posted 5 June 2019 Apparently Norwich have a 15% sell on clause, what the fcuk are we doing? We chuff up £22m for a Championship player after 1 decent season and let them have a sell on clause. Madness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluearmyfox28 Posted 5 June 2019 Share Posted 5 June 2019 Personally don’t think we should worry about Eriksen leaving, can see them chasing either Van De Beek or Ziyech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splinterdream Posted 5 June 2019 Share Posted 5 June 2019 To let maddison go in the summer would be madness, to let anyone of the first 11 go is stupidity, buy Youri, buy Shaqiri, but Che and fir king go for that 4th place for crying out loud.

volpeazzurro Posted 5 June 2019 Share Posted 5 June 2019 If the fee being talked about is 60m then we as a club don't need 60m that badly anymore, we are no longer one of those small clubs that needs to sell to survive, we're in a very healthy position. In fact when you look at some of these supposed top teams like Spurs and Arsenal, you could argue that we are in a better position than they are.. Both of them need a new defence to replace either ageing or deficient players, both have star players in Abamauyang and Erikson that are wanting to leave and seemingly Arsenal and their ageing players haven't got a pot to piss in. There would be no financial sense in selling him as one, as a player, he's integral to what we're trying to do at the moment and secondly, think what he'll be worth in a year's time! A quick word to his agent to say try what you will, speak to who you want, but he's on a four year contract and he ain't going anywhere and it's end of story. The club now are in a position where they only have to sell if they deem it advantageous and at an extortionate price. Kante had a contract clause. Drinkwater it was advantageous to sell for a great fee at that time. Marhez eventually went for a reasonable fee but I think more hard ball will be played with our players in the future. But, for the players at this time they are at an exciting forward thinking club with guaranteed football and exposure. All players rightly have ambitions but it is possible to achieved both what's best for the player and the club and I think compared to others, we're trying our best to get the balance right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wanted 25m. i guess we didn't think he would be sold on for more than 40 mill so the sell on clause was worth more than the 3m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same as Hull then but, like Kantes clause, if the choice is take the deal or lose the player a choice has to be made. For the sake of those potentially 3 deal breaker clauses, would you have not bowed down and not had Kante, Maguire or Maddison? Difficult decision but all three were bought at a very reasonable price and all three would and have made a vast profit. Sell on clauses are a common and whilst I'm sure we won't, if we sold a young player like Maddison for 60m you can bet your life we'd add one also.

Strokes Posted 5 June 2019 Share Posted 5 June 2019 It will only be a sell on percentage past the original fee. So if we sell for £60m only 15% of £38m. So £5.7m? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARM1968 Posted 5 June 2019 Share Posted 5 June 2019 No way should we sell to a club who we will be in direct competition with next season. Yes they are arguably one of, if not THE biggest club in the world, but they are in a mess and apparently trying to rebuild in the same way as Fergie. So next season will likely be difficult for them. Think Madders would be foolish to go anywhere next season. He should stay, play and grow. No way he misses any boats. They’ll all still be there waiting for him with even bigger contracts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
