student Posted 25 June, 2014 Share Posted 25 June, 2014 I'll be happy to let him go for £35m cash, all up front plus 25% sell on clause. Take it or do one. Man Utd have a £250m war chest, and have a crap bargaining position. They need to be seen doing business. Keep in dreaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killers Knee Posted 25 June, 2014 Share Posted 25 June, 2014 This would be great result. Sensibly Man Utd will need to walk away, but they might feel they have to prove in the transfer market that they can get any player they want. Getting Luke would be a sort of moral victory even if it costs them a little more. Exactly that, they need 7 players, have £250m to spend and everyone knows they will back LVG in his first season no matter what the cost. They are going to get bent over so hard they'll not have change for Vaseline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torrent Of Abuse Posted 25 June, 2014 Share Posted 25 June, 2014 More gold from Redcafe, this time care of Trizzy. "Personally I wouldn't pay a cent more than the 27m.. its way over priced as it is and its not about the money its about not given in to a **** club." Seriously this **** is giving me something interesting to do while at work. To be fair though a few people on their forum called this particular poster out for being a moron. The pricing of players (particularly british players) is down to the amount of money sloshing around in the top flight. If it gets you 60m or 80m or 100m to get into the top league then of course you'll be expected to spend on that kind of par to get in there. Anything less is a gamble. Similarly, you pay a premium for players to get into the CL. If ManU don't want to pay a premium for a player to get them back into the exalted realm of top top teams then so be it, but they shouldn't whine about it. Honestly, I remember clubs like Liverpool and Man United doing what they want and signing who they want. When did they become so small-time that they have to do all their negotiating via the media and when did their fans become so delusional that they think clubs should sell them a player at a knock-down price because they want it to happen. I would be delighted to see Shaw back here for pre-season and also content to have Lallana back. Just no badge kissing this season, Adam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's our player, under a long contract, we don't want to sell, we've put off potential poachers. Job done. Of course it's not really but if somebody wants him bad enough they know what it will take to prise him away. Hopefully by this time next week the club will have stuck another £5m on top.

Journalist have assumed that that would be a formality, hence it being a "done deal", but it now looks as though that isn't quite the case This is certainly along the right lines. Shaw and united sorted personal terms months ago. In terms of the fee, united were given strong suggestions from Southampton that 27m the magic number to do the deal. Important people in united, most notably woodward, thought it was a done deal and were briefing the press that it was as good as done. They believed they would announced it before the world cup and even had a press release ready for the thursday i mentioned before the world cup. This is fact. Speculating, It would seem that the hold up regards the structure of the 27m, presumably united wanted to do it 'on the cheap' with x upfront, y next year then plenty in achievement and appearance based clauses. Im guessing southampton want pretty much all of it upfront. The 34m quoted could be a new 'structured deal' with bigger achievement based clauses. United obviously don't want to pay it all upfront as they're probably going to over 100m of business this summer and cant stump all that up in cash immediately.

Yourself and the Manchester based journos, Mark Ogden etc, need to understand that Woodward is a bit of an amateur and doesn't have a clue what he's doing in regard to transfer dealings. Once you come to terms with that you might realise that it's a mistake right now to believe any United based leak, although frankly you should have sussed that out last summer.

Exactly, Man Utd have already boasted about their £250m transfer kitty for welcoming Louis Van Gaal to Old Trafford and fixing the problems highlighted during Moyes' reign. The footballing world know that Man Utd need at least 5 new first team players and they will not, actually cannot afford to let Van Gaal down in the transfer market as they did with Moyes. They need to accept they are in a ridiculously weak bargaining position and even my Grandmother would cost them £10m, and they'd have to dig her up first. It doesn't look like a good summer for Man Utd fans at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not urge, as I understand it it's just permission to speak that needs to be granted by the club holding the registration... No deal needs to even be on table before, although that is the usual way it works.... As not much point agreeing personal terms if the clubs can't agree a fee... So not sure what to believe... If they really had wrapped up personal terms a month ago, then the stuff Les reed said about no bids could still be true, as he never mentioned anything about 'not' giving any permissions for our players to speak with other clubs.... Of cause it could be done and dusted with just the agents agreeing .... Easy and plenty of ways around the tapping rules, which i suspect will be ditched soon as almost impossible to police effectively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derry Posted 26 June, 2014 Share Posted 26 June, 2014 IMO Southampton want to keep Shaw. The fee for Utd will always be too much unless it reaches a silly figure and Utd are still in.

Toon Saint Posted 26 June, 2014 Share Posted 26 June, 2014 Obvious Shaw will go, it's just a question of how much - anything north of £30m is bloody good money. Frustrating, but out of Morgan, Lovren, and Adam he is the least valuable to us as a team but the one that will command the most money. Let's hope it is stage-managed well and we secure a few transfers before it is announced though, otherwise fan/player morale may well dip again. Build on the good vibes with the Koeman appointment, bring some fresh faces through the door (Kolo, Drasic, Pelle), convince the unsettled ones to stay, then let him leave for as much we can squeeze out of Utd.

I have ambition and I want us to do better, but until we have a russian zillionaire bankrolling us, we will not be able to retain players of Luke's calibre (it does make the whole academy thing seem pretty hollow, though) - as we won't be able to reach the levels they aspire to.

The great advantage of these clauses is that they're payable in one hit so Bilbao aren't bothered by any agent's fees, payment delays, options or adds-on. They had no control over the player's desire either though, if he pays he becomes a free agent. Utd were obviously trying to get better terms.

They mentioned this on the radio this morning. The buy out clause was going up to €40m on 1st July, so they had to act quickly. The player has to pay it, so you are right, Man U have to pay him to pay it off. The problem then apparently is that he might be liable to income tax. If this is the case, then Man U would have to pay that as well, which makes it rather more expensive. I am sure someone can give more accurate details.
