Supermonkey92 1,428 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Did the likes of Rudiger/Zouma/Christensen all of a sudden learn how to defend? A top CB is still needed. I think we should just be honest and accept 1 window wont complete our team. I'm already giving up on getting havertz lol. Let's say we sign ziyech, Werner and a lb. That addresses the issue of finishing chances and making more. We have quality CMS as its stands (scoring and assists aside) so I think we are set there. Defence and gk will just have to be improved next summer, but it's good to see the team taking shape. With James and a new lb half the defence is sorted anyway and I reckon Rudiger will keep his place.

But there are tons of good defenders available for discount prices. If there is one window to complete the team it’s this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikkiCFC 8,324 Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 They could not buy Werner because of the money so no chance for this to happen. But Ole also today suggesting UTD may not spend money this summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really do not see why Sancho himself would move this Summer, from every angle he is better off staying at Dortmund, as staying at Dortmund gives him; 1) CL football 2) Assurances that he will be one of the first names on the team sheet 3) A £190k a week wage - due to his fee being £100m+ this year, I do not see him greatly increasing on that. 4) He waits another year, his fee goes down but his signing on fee/wage goes up significantly. 5) Dortmund have more chance of winning the Bundesliga than Utd (the only team I can see buying him this year) have of winning the PL. For me, moving this year is insanity on his part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikkiCFC 8,324 Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Yep in this climate he is not going anywhere. Still not sure we will go for him next summer. How much he would cost with one year left on contract? If Puli establish himself next season as starting LW and Ziyech plays better as AM than maybe we go for him...

OhForAGreavsie 6,075 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 If true, I don't blame ManU at all for this decision. Clubs should at least try to get some sanity back into the transfer market.

Pizy 18,918 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Would be pretty funny if United don't get Sancho at this point when they have essentially zero competition for his signature this summer. Their fans may hurt themselves because they have all just assumed it was a formality for months. If he stays at Dortmund for another year there will be loads of clubs after him (maybe even ourselves) and United won't have a free run at him again. Spending £100m+ on a single player right now whose name isn't M'bappe or Neymar is ridiculous, though, so can't blame United if this report is accurate. Although they did just spend £80m on Maguire so I'm not sure I believe they won't pony up in this case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 It likely doesn't mean much in such cases but seems like Sancho was left out of Dortmund's new kit launch. Feel free to make of that what you will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Styl1994 188 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 The only way we would get Sancho this summer is if Hudson-Odoi went the other way like 50-60m + Hudson-Odoi and Ampadu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikkiCFC 8,324 Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 You know what? If Sane with one year left on contract costs around 50m I think Sancho in the same situation next summer should not be much more? This season aside since Sane was injured they have very similar stats. Sancho in Dortmund and Sane in City. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sancho will cost Hazard money at least Can't see your reasoning. We wanted close to 200m for Hazard summer before. When players have one year left on contract their price is usually 50% cheaper. Courtois left us for 30-35m after great World Cup. If he had more on contract he would cost around 70m surely. Sane was quoted 100m one year ago. You think players have the same price with 2,3,4 and 1 year left on contract? Dortmund wants 100-120m for him now. So next summer it will be 60-70m max by this logic no doubt.
