I've been seeing 90 plus 10 in add ons.

He is on 12k a week wages so he is getting a raise this year no matter what. They can either pay him or take a nice fee from United.

I really hope this deal gets done. I would rather have this done before Sesko but I think that might get wrapped up by tomorrow.

signing a player solely to keep another club from getting him is why Manchester United are where they are right now

Sesko HERE WE GO!

Relax Drac, you got Elanga. Maybe you can hold onto Isak too if United doesn't decide to go in for him.

Bruv, I have no desire to get into any serious discussion with a magpie in a United thread. Your club is in the middle of eating the entire humble pie...you've got nothing to offer but anger and resentment and all you will ever get from us is a laugh.

Now is the time for you to be quiet and not draw any further piss taking, especially when you just got Big Clubbed like a baby seal by 15th place United.

You're not a big club and nobody wants to play for you. You should be thanking us for giving you a glimmer of hope for keeping Isak, because you are fricked if he leaves.

Honestly, I love the way that deal was done and how we are going about things this summer. This was just about as good of a deal that any club was going to get for Sesko. Newcastle offered more before we even bid and I have heard that Sesko was offered higher wages by them too.

It was your contention that we only pursued him because NU wanted him. Where are you getting that from? Be specific...

United inquired about Sesko at the beginning of the summer but made it clear they wouldn't pursue the player unless he made it clear he was interested in joining United. Once they received word they put a bid in, they didn't want to get into a bidding pissing contest with Newcastle. Its nothing more than that, Isak is going to Liverpool regardless. Stay mad that the geordies have been turned down by every major target.

United is still the 2nd most valuable club in the world and 4th in terms of generating revenue with a dilapidated stadium, poor squads, shite leadership, debt. There are 3 major brands in world football Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Barcelona. They will always be able to snag top players regardless of results.

Players know if they sign for United their brand grows 100x, social media followers grow 100X, not to mention if you are part of the squad that inevitably turns this ship around you become a god amongst men from the jungles of the Congo to London, everyone knows who you are.

That's why they will always choose ManU over Newcastle. Georgie's can have all the oil money in the world it still can't buy prestige.

when you’re not allowed to spend as much as the cartel it’s not really a level playing field, now is it?

Misdirected hostility. You should take this up with the City folk.

Need Newcastle to submit bids for Baleba and Donnarumma please and thank you.

Let’s also just ignore Newcastle bid more than we did and it was rejected

He only had eyes for United

Newcastle offered a bigger fee and higher wages, he just didn’t want to go learn your shite.

Garnacho with an ultimatum today

Sell me to Chelsea or I'll sit on my arse for 6-12 months

I honestly don't know of a player that has fallen so hard like this. And trying to pull that shite in a world cup year

Ok, sit. Unless Chelsea offers 45-50 mil upfront, I ain't selling and he ain't going to the world cup.

That price is because Chelsea can frick off
