The echo have surpassed themselves with this one. Mbappe is helping sell players for us now! I know it's summer, but how tenoous can they make these stories!

The Vargas fella for el Swisso looked good - Mane backup.

I can’t wait for the “How many overpriced Asda donuts would you have to sell to buy Mbappe” articles.

Nah he's excellent. 

However, £85m, that's a big one, sale about to happen? 

United still need a striker unless they're all in on Greenwood.

 

I'd have liked Sancho but I'll settle for Mbappe.

"He's excellent" based on what exactly?

 

Timo Werner was "excellent" in that league, and everyone was spitting nails when we didn't sign him.

 

If he was so good, he'd be starting for England, in my opinion.

Remember what we thought we were getting in Keita?

[John102]

He has 50 goals and 64 assists in 137 games. He is only 21.

 

He is a brilliant young player.

 

I expect he will make Man Utd a better team next year.

How many times have you seen him play?

[John102]

A handful on times for England youth, Dortmund and England.

Within the context of how mental fees are for a player  these days and taking into account his young age, very decent stats (admittedly in a lower level league) plus adding him being a full England international and his general marketability that’s not a terrible fee. Especially when they were asking for 120m last season. 
 

the above paragraph is one for the shitness of modern football. But if anyone knows how to drop every penny out of an asset it’s united. 
 

what kind of wages is he going to be on? If it’s not that high I’m a little disappointed we wouldn’t have made an effort for him. But I guess we’re still in a buy to sell phase.

He's another one of these players that every time I watch him I'm underwhelmed, not that I've watched him lots. I was the same with pogba and Werner. Let's hope this cunt follows in their foot steps.

To be fair, Southgate thinks Trent is the 4th best English right back.

The wages are the killer. Stories of £300-400k per week. "Agent's fee" also mentioned there. That's got to be eight figures, too... 

[Anubis]

Hopefully he becomes less Sancho and more Sanchez.

[aRdja]

He seems quite good, but whilst we still have Salah, Mane and Jota, I’d like us to get a proper number 9 in instead.

Yawn!

[Harry Squatter]

Looking forward to our game at Old Trafford being disrupted by the Glazers out protesters again because Man Utd don't spend enough money to compete with Man City.

Scum throwing their lotto money around just because they can. No way he is worth that much, 50 mil max.

[Bobby Hundreds]

He improves them how couldn't he. Its early in the window, shit load will happen once the euros are done. My hope is though we do sign somebody that you could also say immediately improves us on paper at least, currently with the loss of Gini I'd say we are a bit weaker. I think "we go again" isn't good enough the side needs work we all know that and I'm fairly sure we will do something decent.

 

It won't be mbappe or Halaand plus the only way I could ever see mbappe signing which I don't think he ever will is when his contract completely runs out and we pay him a transfer fee rather than destroy our wage structure.

[Lee909]

Neil Jones reporting ideally we sign 2 more players but its dependent on sales. 

 

How in the fuck do they expect Klopp tp compete when his budget seems to be 35ml plus sales. I get needing to clear out the deadwood, but i can easily see us pricing Shaqiri,Origi out of a move and going into next year with the same squad,no Gini and Konate. We will end up with loads of Jones,Elliot need game time. The injured players are like new signings. 

 

Yes we will be better but we will end up out the domestic cups because we need to rest the strikers in jan with all the African players disappearing for a month. 

[joe_fishfish]

If Mbappe is on a free next summer he can name his wage. He'll get whatever he wants. Still think the most likely outcome is that he stays at PSG.
