James Maddison

It’s a bit of a poor show from yanited to leak this to a journo on whatever level it’s intended. Their player is having a tough time from all perspectives and considering yesterday’s mental health messages from the game, it stacks up v poorly for me. 

 

I think it's all rubbish myself and should be taken with a pinch of salt like the Xhaka & £40m for Ndidi. 

 

It's all a bit convenient to reduce the cash fee and get rid of a bit of your rubbish at the same time. It would be like us offering Villa a deal for Grealish and getting rid of Slimani, Silva, James and Amartey and £20m.

It is rubbish - yes. strange that we have a current thread on it and red cafe don’t !  Pretty well sums it up !

 

reputable journos don’t just make stuff up - they are fed a story from someone, be it an agent or a club or ’ITK source’. the journo would usually approach the club for comment before issuing the story. In this case, no one at yanited has dissed the story prior to its issue or immediately afterwards ....

Ask Man U if they want to sign Andy King, better than Lingard

Well I agree with all that apart from the last bit. If we’ve sold them Maguire for £80m then by what logic would we only want £80m for a better player who is more important to the way we play than Maguire was.

Glad you’re not doing Rudkins job.

You know what I mean, clearly. I didn't want to put a price tag on him that's all.

 

And yeah I'm glad I don't do Rudkin's job either, have you seen the amount of stick he gets on here when something goes wrong.

They make perfect sense as 'click-bait twofers'.

 

Let's see how many more of these 'hugely important player swapped for cash plus massively underperforming player their own fans are pissed off with' deals are touted.

But the Sunday Mirror have reported United are ready to test the Foxes’ resolve with an offer including Lingard and £45m.

It is claimed United value Lingard at £40m, estimating the potential deal to be worth £85m.

However, several United fans clearly don’t agree with the valuation of Lingered.

 

One fan joked: “Might as well just offer them £45million and a packet of starburst.”

Another quipped: “You’re basically paying £45million for Maddison.”

A third tweeted: “Leicester will decline and renegotiate the offer to just £45million.”

A fourth said: “I reckon Leicester will just accept the £45million.”

Another wrote: “Leicester have asked if they can just have the £45m, thanks.”

I think Rodgers might play Perez behind Vardy if Maddison goes in the summer (hope he stays, of course). 

[Nick]

We’d be really stupid not to keep him for at least one more season and play him in the CL.

 

Sell him in a year and a half for £120 million.

[ThingsCouldGetMessi]

We should offer Man United £45m to go away and never come back.

Would he want to go to United in the Championship 

[Carl the Llama]

If there's any truth to the story (I seriously doubt that there is) then it's purely as a way of letting Maddison know they're interested in the hopes he'll kick off in the Summer window.  They'll know there's no chance any of our starting XI get moved on this month.

[MANFACE]

Maddys to Man Utd.... let me think...

 

 

 

 

 

[surrifox]

Man U under the stewardship of Woodward really are an embarassment . If the owners weren’t so detached from the club surely they’d recognise that he’s an idiot and not fit for purpose

Right announce your selfs 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[simon789us]

We should have put something in the deal for Maguire as Man U have to pay 100mil plus the transfer fee for any future transfers from us like Liverpool did with barca for coutinho

Why wouldn’t they just speak with his agent ?

[Blanchflower78]

If Maddison were to go in the summer or beyond that 100% he will be replaced and not accommodated within.

[gurru991]

The quality level of the English press is deplorable !!

They go on Twitter & find some comment that some mindless twits have endorsed & then turn it into a story.

Pathetic !!

I never said it was a good plan.

[Joefox]

In what world do Man U value Maddison at 45 million? He won’t be going anywhere for less that 100 million. Let’s make it 130 if they want him in Jan.

 

Whats happened to Man U seriously? Their transfer policy these days is embarrassing.

Do we really think City players would stil be tempted do go there seeing what has happened to Maguire?

I think most footballers, if they are the confident type with a bit of ego thrown in, believe they are the player that will make the difference and return a club like United back to the top. A huge raise in salary also helps. So yes, unfortunately they will always be tempted.
