Don‘t agree, he is just better defensively as offensively. His dribbling on the ball is actually quite good.He's a square peg in a round hole. Thats not a good squad option.
Possibly. I don't think they're interested in him though.He would be their second best player.
Haven't seen him playing in France but he always looks below average with Canada. He doesn't look anything special to be honest, not really young either so I don't know what the deal with him. Got decent numbers in league 1 so maybe it's just a case of a player not performing with his country.Tier 2:
He’s one of the lowest paid senior squad membersYeah we could have got more but overall its a good deal IMO. He makes too much money compared to output so it was expected that we would have to take big haircut on the transfer fee. Nearly £5m in annual wages off the books in addition to a fee is decent IMO.
To put his salary into context only McT and Evans get paid less per week from the senior players. Everyone else is on 120k per week or higherHe's on high wages for just a squad player too. On a good day if he was on decent wages you could fetch 25mil give or take but 1 year left on deal 90k plus a week, I think 15mil is good.
Yes and despite what some are saying his wages are not prohibitive. I’d take minimum 17m, anything less and we’ve been shaftedI still wouldn’t sell him for 20 million. For that money surely all the lower clubs in the PL would be queuing up. He’s being undervalued on here. I think he’s worth 25 but realise his contract situation is precarious. At his best he’s a really good player for a team that needs to defend. He’s got a decent injury record and he’s still quite young and he’s very experienced now.
Yeah for Manchester United. Not for the rest of Europe. £90k a week is putting him in the top 5 earners at the vast majority of European clubs.He’s one of the lowest paid senior squad members

He’s shite thoughDisagree. Very few clubs outside the top CL and PL clubs pay more than £15 mill for a fullback. There are exceptions when it is clearly a very big talent, but that is not the case for AWB. Furthermore, he only have one year left on his current deal.
Reguilon is a similar case. Levy is rumoured to be one of the best negotiaters in the game, but he will sell him for less than £10 mill.
He’s shite though
90k is pre tax though. Essentially he's on 60k compared to those issued in other leagues as most of the time they post after tax figures.Yeah for Manchester United. Not for the rest of Europe. £90k a week is putting him in the top 5 earners at the vast majority of European clubs.
Every 15 mins for the past 48hrs probably knowing sky sports newsHaven't they already said this before?
One of the main reasons for our decline after Fergie’s retirement has been the signing of the wrong players. We need to sign upcoming young players who can immediately strengthen the starting XI in this window. The emphasis should be on quality over quantity. If we don’t sign Leny Yoro and Joao Neves in this window, I would start to lose faith in my renewed optimism.
Swap deal time?Ahhh...Zaha, that's a good point. I forgot that he is a Galatasaray player.
£17m is too low obviously, but I do like the precedent a 50% sell on clause sets.
50% of any future sale is tasty.
You would like to think he can play well and get himself back to a £60m transfer.
Surely not. Wouldn't we just pay them 20% of the £17m fee?We'll need to pay 20% of that 50% to Getafe
Why? So we need to pay getafe now if we sell him to lazio and then we need to pay on the next transaction to getafe as well if lazio sells geenwood to someone else? How does that work?We'll need to pay 20% of that 50% to Getafe
How come?We'll need to pay 20% of that 50% to Getafe
We'll need to pay 20% of that 50% to Getafe
We'll need to pay 20% of that 50% to Getafe
No we wouldn’t.We'll need to pay 20% of that 50% to Getafe
If that clause is actually fact then you're correct. It's part of the fee so they'd be entitled to their percentage.We'll need to pay 20% of that 50% to Getafe
He's got legs and knows how to use them.Looks like Branthwaite and ZeeZee Top
