Gemmill 34444 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Chris Waugh reporting it now too. Seems the offer has def gone in, just waiting for a response from Lyon. And we know what a lovely bunch the French clubs are to deal with. This should be a piece of piss. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aimaad22 3466 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Did Man Utd raise the loan fee for Lingard at the last minute or what? This seemed doable, unless they asked for something silly at the last minute its worrying that we've failed here as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Hog 336 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Reading the Twitter threads it seemed like Man Utd won't budge from the £10 million loan fee for him and we offered about £6 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all for telling the likes of Sevilla to go screw themselves but giving up on Lingard over 4M would just be stubbornness imo. He's someone who could make a significant contribution in saving our season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew 4219 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Depends if we have other attainable targets, I feel like the 4 million isnt the point, more the piss taking. I reckon thats also why we've stepped away from as many transfers as we have this month, teams upping their asking prices late in the day, knowing that we "have the money" to spend. Assuming it pays off and we don't get relegated it does put us in a better place in summer as we will have shown that we'll not be taken advantage of. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

247 597 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Yeah it’s reasonable of these owners to refuse to have their pants pulled down, now they have walked away from deals on Botman and Carlos other clubs will know there’s a risk of pushing the price to far and watching us fuck off and give someone else our money. Well I hope so anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polarboy 2124 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Guimaraes's reps refused to comment when asked if their client would be interested in a move to us. So one way of interpreting silence is that there's something in it and he's interested, because the normal response if a move was out of the question would be a quick not interested. Of course Guimaraes could just be using us to push the other clubs interested in him to act. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeds paid that much for Daniel fucking James, Leicester paid it for Islam Slimani. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarboy 2124 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Newcastle United join transfer race for Nottingham Forest star as ‘bid increased’ - Nottinghamshire Live (nottinghampost.com) We're supposedly competing with Brentford for a young Welsh attacking mid off Forest. Wales have produced at least a handful of very good players over the last couple of decades, so Johnson could potentially be another Ramsey or Bale.
