If it's true that FDJ doesn't want to come to United despite having a known quantity manager and the obvious advantages of rainy wet cold Manchester over sunny Catalonia, then neither EtH nor the club should continue the quest. It's really that simple.

it's all very well fans complaining about the new management's incompetence, but let's face it the last 10 years have turned us into a laughing stock, an incompetently run second rate club with nothing on its mind other than the next sponsorship deal.

With a high debt, a depressed stock price, minimal market value in the squad, and substantial OT and training ground improvements required, there is little room for error. It may not please a demanding fan base but we would probably be better off starting out again as a mid table club with a much reduced payroll under a manager who can get the best out of the squad, rather than splashing out on players who have higher aspirations than being at United.

Woodward's 10 years as CEO were a disaster on every front. Things could go either way from here.

Frenkie has always said his dream club is Barcelona. I know those words mean very little in the modern day football ecosystem, but he has always said this. I don't blame him for being reluctant in leaving his dream club. Barcelona aren't a club that need to sell to stay afloat. They're selling him so they can sign a few 30 year olds. If we take a step back and say "would you be forced out of Man Utd that easy" we would all say no!

Iv been very critical of the club but you can't make the player join. If the lad wants to stay at Barcelona then so be it, there's nothing we can do.

If I was a betting man I would say he'll join but if wants to stay, good luck to him. The pressure will be then on the club to get in a few suitable midfielders.

We would hardly pursue him that length for him just to say no at the end, would we?

Surely his interest in joining was established at the start. This is just the latest blip that manifests abd snowballs in this place when there’s nothing else to talk about.

Angelred- we did with di maria and look where that ended- ok he was alledgedly a mercenary T*^t with an ego the size of asia but still, we aren't always dealing with men its often immature players and agents.

The way United have messed about doesn’t help either. He’s probably thinking that Man United don’t want me that bad otherwise they’d have pulled out all the stops to sign me by now.

You’re right that the club cannot be blamed if FDJ decides that he’d rather stay at Barcelona than come to United (nor can FDJ, for that matter) . They can, however, be mocked for wasting nearly two months trying to agree a fee for a player that never had any intention of moving to the club.

If true, the whole ordeal is also a pretty damning indictment of the current state of our club and how unappealing we are to elite players. That a player would rather stay at a club that have spent months trying to sell him so that they can sign a striker who will turn 34 next month speaks volumes (especially with the Ajax links at United) .

You would imagine that EtH would have had a quiet word with Frenkie before United put so much time and effort into trying to sign him.

30 Jun 2022 10:18:38
That's what I presume Shappy but that is also tapping up, so maybe he hasn't.

30 Jun 2022 10:35:22
Or is it just a chat between two old friends Angel?

30 Jun 2022 13:47:22
Umm spenno, tapping up unfortunately.

30 Jun 2022 14:03:46
I think you can speak with agent just to see if general interest is there, but not the player. That is role of agent? Maybe why some stories saying he is upset with his agent?

As ever, man utd transfer turns into a 90s soap drama. Better to just wait and see who is announced ?.

If if if.
If my granny had wheels she would have been a bike.
