Kaveh Solhekol @SkyKaveh Sheikh Jassim walked away from deal for Manchester United after refusing to pay more than double what the club is worth. One source says: “What is happening is totally unreal. The Glazers valuation is insanely fanciful. Sheikh Jassim offered them almost double the market capitalisation. He was a cash buyer, he was going to clear all their debts, there would have been no new debt and he was going to put in another £1.4 billion for the stadium and the team. “All that still wasn’t enough for the Glazers. What we’re left with now, after almost a year, is someone who is going to overpay for 25 per cent of the club. They are arguably the greatest and most historic football club on the planet and after a year there’s just one bidder and he can only stump up enough for 25 per cent. “It’s a joke. If they just wanted to sell a minority stake, they could have done it privately last November. The market dictates what United are worth, not the Glazers or Raine. Remember when there were apparently eight serious bidders? All along there has only been one bidder for 100 per cent of the club so why should he bid against himself? “Ratcliffe is overpaying and any valuation higher than Sheikh Jassim is sheer lunacy. “If he can only afford to buy 25 per cent to start with, who is going to pay for the new stadium? Who is going to fix the leaking roof? Who is going to pay for the new training centre and new players and community projects? “United can’t keep up with Brighton these days, never mind Man City, Liverpool and Arsenal. And don’t even think about the likes of Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. “And if they go with Ratcliffe, they get another shareholder. How does that help decision making? Where is the new vision and the new ambition? Where is the new engagement with the fans? “Sheikh Jassim tried to bridge the gap between reality and lunacy on valuation. He did his best.”

What’s even worse Jassim will buy another prem club and make them a power house. This is the worst day in United’s recent history.

I don't say this a whole lot, but the government should step in at this point.

Pretty sure he was the last of the Munich crash survivors. Rip to the legend.

If anybody hasn't seen the movie "United" about the Munich Air Disaster, it's great and available for free on YT.

Watching the CL game vs Copenhagen right now and its so frustrating to watch us play. No patterns of play at the moment just continued pass out to the wings then back to the centerbacks, long ball in the air, lose possession, repeat.

Ok. I had the same issue watching the Serie A game this weekend. Incredibly frustrating.

This team is a joke. Garnacho’s touch was so bad there.

He was not offside.
