The College Dropout Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 12 minutes ago, KaKa said: The problem is Leipzig also wanted a ton of the fee upfront. It's been 24 hrs now with no further movement and now we're getting these kind of reports coming in. Leipzig were so tough to deal with they sent Arsenal packing twice. I'm just not 100% certain this is going to end in Man United's favour. But lets see. They've got a former Red Bull man in house, so maybe he can convince them and get some favours due to his connections. It wasn’t just RB, Arsenal were tired of Šeško and agent. That’s where we might exit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1pe Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 When he does sign for Man U I just don’t see a world where a front 3 of Cunha, Šeško and Mbuemo doesn’t absolutely murder teams. If they add Baleba into the mix and Amorim’s style of play I think they’ll be right back up there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Ahmed Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 I hope we aren't wasting our team by hanging around We need to accept he's made his choice, it's done so let's move on to someone else that can reject us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect we just stuck a PIF intern in the Leipzig office so that it looks as if we haven't given up. And that means Manure can't haggle the price down in the absence of any competition. The minute we pull out, or sign another striker, then the haggling begins. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They saw our bid and want to get him for less. It’s not going to happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginola14 Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 can just imagine Ratcliffe's thinking.. this is absolutely ridiculous... player is best in class and wants to come to the biggest football club in the world... but then you have these clubs that try to exploit Manchester United... biggest football club in the world...etc Twat.

KaKa Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 10 minutes ago, Emotic said: Offer Leipzig the money we are apparently willing to spend on Nicolas Jackson, then. 80 million pounds. Take it or leave it. If that doesn't get him, at least Leipzig can then demand the same from Manure. We are well past this stage. Ornstein has already confirmed that our bid was accepted. Sesko and his camp are giving Man United the chance to match it, but they are struggling. If they fail to match the fee and terms we did, only God knows what happens next. If we're still hanging about does that suggest he has said he will join us? No idea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abacus Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 Wasn't fussed about him to start with. All this reported stuff about him/his agent makes me think he'd be a nightmare and still has it all to prove in the PL. No, leave the offer on the table so that Man U can't underpay in their haggling and then let them take that risk. He might well work out, but right now I'd far rather have Wissa just to guarantee having a proven striker for the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley17 Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 This whole thing has seemed weird from the start. Just keep thinking about what SP said where it’s Man Utd’s side pushing the “he chose us” narrative. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
duo Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 21 minutes ago, The College Dropout said: Man United quibbled with Brentford for weeks just to fold. They will do the same here. Its simple form RBs perspective. Match the bid. Would hope RB will play hard ball as they've a higher bid waiting to be accepted Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its simple form RBs perspective. Match the bid. Brentford wanted £70m up front and we got him for £65m+£6m in performance based add-ons across 4 instalments, allowing us to keep a sizeable cash balance to go after Sesko/Baleba. If that's what you call folding, then I guess we folded. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdm Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 There’s only been one report saying we are sticking around. It’s pretty much done. He’ll he a Man Utd player. Fuck him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 This is a bit odd like. Reports were that Leipzig had accepted both offers and Sesko had accepted both contracts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miggys First Goal Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 (edited) Amateur hour from those cunts like. Bid for a player with money you don’t have and then try to negotiate the price to something you can afford.

Mattoon Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 Feels like there's legs in this still, still nothing from the Sesko, Leipzig, or our camp, just Man Utd "feel" mass reported and we still have reps there? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
