Unless Belotti is going to cost over £100m it wouldn't be close to that. Think we'd get him for less than Morata.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
He was nowhere near as disciplined, as a DM , he was useless, under LVG in that regard, with Jose he is a good DM option, and also decent in CM.
Probably because we are in for Fabinho.
It will turn a bit into a domino, if we get Fabinho before Real Madrid go all guns for Mbappe. I am not sure Monaco are ready to lose three starters in one season. Therefore Madrid may not get him and may come back for De Gea.
Fine but as I mentioned any manager will have players who simply don't fancy playing for them for any number of reasons. Overall though, the net effect of him being manager is positive regarding attracting players IMO.
Have we sold Valencia? Sorry was working my way through the posts. You meant left back.
'Probably'. It's a pity that you can't provide a single shred of evidence to back that up.
Yeah, people are being a bit harsh on Darmian, he is a very fine back up option to have, very solid defensively. The less said about his play in the opposition half the better but I would not want him sold tbh.
Belotti has a buyout clause of €100m valid only for non-Italian clubs. There were rumors earlier in the window of them rejecting a €60m + bonuses bid from Chelsea.
I'd love for us to get them both as they are very exciting players and both of them are very underrated by those who don't watch them play.
Darmian would be fine if his role was a CB rather than a LB, he practically gets a nosebleed if he crosses the halfway line these days, we need a proper LB added with Blind and Shaw as the cover IMO.
The more goals the better for me.
This all day long, imagine we'd get around £15m and we could then buy Mendy for around £30m or Sandro for more! What an upgrade that is in our starting 11. Come on Milan help us out!
It never made any sense. Salah is right wing, as is Mane. It wouldn't be about strengthen a squad, it's called needlessly splashing cash on a position in which you already have a top class player in.
Because players can't wait to go all out on social networks saying how they snubbed some club because they don't fancy certain style of football?
Take Mbappe for example, even tho it's just a rumor can you imagine him joining us only to be played out of position in an counter-attacking side?
No because then they will use the "oh but he he spent allot of money", which will be ironic since the argument was that he could not attract the top players. Their logic would dictate that these players come for free or somehow the dross we have will become world class after years of mediocrity. What he has achieved with Rojo and Valencia to name a few has been a revelation.
A certain insidious little group in here have an obvious agenda. You would have to ignore and rewrite history to ignore all the top players he has bought wherever he has been over the entirety of his managerial career. Its a straw man inside of a false dichotomy wrapped in a circular argument. damned if he does damned if he doesn't.
The problem with Darmian is his almost total lack of offensive play. Modern football requires full backs to be offensive. If your full backs are static, you'll invite more pressure and have limited offensive threats. If Darmian can improve this part of his play, he'll be fantastic but will he?
We're you even watching our matches for the last few months during LVG's last season? Fellaini did exactly the same he's doing now, he was solid on DM and he scored an odd goal here and there, Mourinho really improved nothing on him.
Agree.
Yeah that probably has some truth to it.
Btw has anyone credible enough linked us with Fabinho?
I agree and even wanted him when he was at Stoke. Quality player I think even M Owen stated the same when he signed for Stoke that he was impressed with N'Zonzi. He'll cost us a few bob though.
Well, not really bogus, but a lot of reports come through on team inquiring for a player. I guess someone leaked that we've asked about Torino's stance on a transfer for him and from there the whole transfer saga came through.
What calms me down is that if Mourinho is more interested in Belotti than Morata we would've made a bid by now, but since we haven't clearly Jose is more interested in Alvaro.
What I'm wondering also is, was there anyone ahead of Morata on the #9 section of the transfer list he handed to Woody?
You made the claim. The onus is on you to provide evidence. Except there is none.
I can't imagine Mbappe joining us at all, regardless of who the manager is.
Selling Damian at that price with this incomplete squad would be nuts. See where we are at summers end. He is an experienced player that can play lb rb and cb.
There were a few tweets earlier linking us to him for €45. Can't remember the sources though.
He's got a clause around 40 million or Sevilla asks for that much, can't really remember which one is it.
Darmian at the end of the season was one of our best players. Why would we sell him for peanuts? 15m is nothing in today's market.
Probably just keeping tabs open on him, while negotiating Morata.
I think in a back 3 would be the perfect role for him in a team which plays that system
Bingo
And why can't you imagine him joining us?

Okay, thanks. I'll check them out.
Agreed, but since I don't see us playing it I'd let him go, and I imagine he wants to go somewhere where he starts every week given there's a World Cup next year.
Lol I mean if a crap source like Palmeri says we are interested then that means all the other reports saying we want both Morata and Belotti are bogus aswell.
Hm, interesting, thanks again. Are they reliable?

Morata likes a post mentioning his name moving to united.

Would rather we signed Fabinho for that price but I think N'Zonzi would be a great addition also. He's a very good player.
