And then we sign him to a short term contract till the end of the season but with a stonking sign-on bonus which covers what "he" paid to extract him from the red scum? Don’t think you can play for a team in the same league for a set time if you buy yourself out, I’m also not an expert though so don’t quote me on that.

Yassassin Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 We all know people who bang on all the time about ‘overpaid Premier League footballers’ but in reality they are skilful athletes with a comparatively short career span; to frustrate someone’s ambitions to continue to play at the highest level that they can with no really strong justification is just small time. If he plays a lot of games and keeps them in the top six, fair enough otherwise seems spiteful Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK-421 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 I guess a transfer request by him at this stage wouldn't make any difference either? Man Utd would just reject it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Manure being cunts. Within their rights and unsurprising. They gave us the numbers to make it happen but it appears we didn't meet them even half way. If we meet the asking price or at least get close to it, its a done deal. Still could be. Manure hold the power, it's a case of how bad do we want Lingard. Not enough is the answer so far. In terms of us trying to set a standard this transfer window and not be taken advantage of, I get it but we are in a different place now to where we could be in the summer. We are still limited in who is interested in coming and the need is greater. If we stay up we will unlock a buffet of new higher level players where we can once again be in the position to say, "ok, we will find someone else" and have plenty of other options. That is not now though and our PL status could depend on bringing in Lingard or not. Sucks for Lingard, absolutely. He needs to be playing. Approaching 30 and new younger players coming in all the time, he will struggle to get to Qatar now with England. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Lingard could reignite it by saying he'd be up for a permanent, could he not? They have said for the past few weeks that they'd sell him but were reluctant to loan him out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Puppets Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Got a sneaky nagging feeling that we’ll go back in for him in the next hour in one last ditch attempt, probably paying closer to what Man Utd wanted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost definitely. Feel like the leaked "he is staying" comments are absolutely serving the play back to us. They could have said that yesterday. If an acceptable bid comes in over the next two hours he will go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Would love it if Rangnick decides to sub him on next match. He's waiting for the ball to go dead then suddenly starts to go back the bench and get his tracksuit back on saying he's changed his mind at the last minute and doesn't want to play.

We don't seem to have any other options so I guess we might. Although I've got a feeling we've decided that's it, window done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
