    Is he? Where, I'll go and convince him :biggrin:

    Btw it's funny that the Star were claiming this morning that Pedro was on his way to manchester to sign contract then later stated Woodward was on his way to Barca <doh>

    I wouldn't trust that Woody pratt to organise a p1ss up in a brewery. Has he ever managed to pull off the transfer of a player that we actually needed?

    In all those instances it seems as though the selling club just named a price and United paid it. He's haggling over Pedro despite the fact that he has a buy out clause of 30million euros (or 100million euros if you are UiR and ITK).

    If he haggles and messes up that transfer, I will personally go and ....sort him out.

    He should have learnt from the Moyes era fiasco. United do not do bargains and will never ever win in a negotiating argument. United pay 25% premium on all their transfers...FFS!! It is not as if we ****ing need the money. It is the GGs and I for one will be happy to squander it ...<ok>

    Gentlemens agreement is not a legally binding contract. Ever thought that perhaps it's Barcelona being the difficult team here? seems like they are always needing him that little bit longer.

    Well Darmian and the two sch's look like bargains to me, Darmian and Schweinsteiger for definite so far.

    Looks like we do bargains then <ok>

    So then guys. City have ****ed up or been ****ed about on a transfer. Do you expect their fans now believe they are run by incompetent morons or that the manager is clueless?

    Or is that just United fans <whistle>

    We paid the asking prices didn't we? No one has ever reduced their prices when United come calling.

    So far have they not looked like bargains. The asking price just so happened to be a bargain imp. Schneiderlin was £24million, for one of the leagues best midfielders.... Bargain and a half and 14million for World Cup winning captain and bayerns captain? Bargain.

    We usually get fleeced. We didn't with the above.

    It is a bargain but have you considered it's Barcelona holding the deal up...

    Oh soz like, I know we've agreed to sell him but our Rihanna lookalike has got the mumps so we will just keep him a little longer. Meanwhile the ******s in the British press will take this and make you look like ****s.

    I get the feeling all Spanish clubs are messers. Has there even been a simple transfer from Spain? Barcelona are probably trying to get a buy back clause as they do with most players too. ****s.

    Thats the exact phrase I used 2 years ago when Woody and Moyes the comedy duo were trying to get bargains for United. I just hope the lessons have been learnt. <doh>

    You could be right. The problem with that theory is that there isn't a whiff of Barca asking for anything more than the release clause. Their president, the player, the spanish media, the so-called ITK like Balague and Hunter. ALL are saying the same thing. He wants to leave. Barca want 30m Euros. ALL are saying the sticking point is over United splitting that into 25m Euros up front and 5m add ons. NOT ONE is saying the deal is being delayed by Barca for reasons such as buy back clauses etc.

    I don't believe everything rumoured btw but the weight of information seems to point in one direction only.
