If they add Baleba into the mix and Amorim’s style of play I think they’ll be right back up there. True but the CM is very important. Without that they're still adding £200m of attack onto a very dodgy foundation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, also it still really feels like summer and I can't be bothered for football to come back yet. Start it in September. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is it only reported that Man Utd feel they've won and not Sesko or his reps briefing the press? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andycap Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 I think if he had said he only wants man utd we'd of pulled out of the deal by now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginola14 Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 aye the longer this drags on the more I feel there could be another twist the reporting on it from likes of Romano and Ornstein has been abysmal, bunch of shills Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 I have we have pulled out already. In fact just like other deals, we just walk away without any notice Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginola14 Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 (edited) think it was widely reported we walked away from Ekitike negotiations after it was made clear he only wanted Liverpool this feels different Edited August 7, 2025 by Ginola14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 I'd rather we pulled out regardless, don't want a player who clearly doesnt particularly want to play for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 2 hours ago, Froggy said: 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. So you agreed a deal for more than the £70m Brentford asked for but in a better cash situation for yourselves? Yeh you folded cos you're cash broke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NufcJ Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 Has Sesko actually turned us down yet? what is taking so long hypothetical question, if man u are already struggling to match our offer and that is the hold up, what if we put an extra 5 mill in?

sempuki Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 It's not going to happen lads. No idea why we are still hanging around though. Hopefully to drive up the price so Manure pay too much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
11Tino11 Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 The delay is probably because our offer was cash upfront and they're wanting to pay on tick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Ahmed Posted August 7, 2025 Share Posted August 7, 2025 Whilst we were wasting our time with this Villa signed Guessand, I think we'll look back on that signing and question why we didn't prioritise him instead, much better value and more versatile than Sesko Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
