The only reason he's being linked to Sunderland is because he played his best football under Moyes, he's not said he wants to go there, we've not said he's going to go out for a fee, it's just fans putting 2+2 together. My opinion is any less than £25m and a club should be told to get ****ed, when you have a player you like you tend to want to keep them, I've seen Kone valued on here at £40m after a few good games, there's no reason to suggest it'd be ridiculous for my club to stick a big fee on Januzaj in this sort of climate. £13m is a ****ing joke for our club.
Never said he does want to come here. I'm just saying you've made him sound like a bit of a dick so not fussed about him in which case. I've seen nowt to suggest you do want to keep him. LVG certainly didn't want him or give his career any attention after that stupid loan which was sanctioned. Granted Jose hasn't been there long so time will tell if you do actually want him. I don't value Kone at 40m, that's daft imo. 25m and we'd have to listen.
It's reported that he wants out mate, no quotes, just rumours but there's no smoke without fire as they say. Maybe his application is questionable, or maybe he just sees the likes of Mkhitaryan and Martial and thinks he won't get games. If you signed a couple of top wingers, then sold Watmore for £5m you'd probably be fairly disappointed, given he's shown a lot of promise. You also know his next club could flip him for much more if he has a good season. That's just where I'm at.
Could be one of the players we've got bids in for. We won't pay 25m so we're either on a hiding to nothing here, or he's not wanted. If true of course. Probably bollocks. It's a foreign reg
Well without sounding disrespectful, if he's considering a permanent move to Sunderland it shows that his attitude has changed for the better anyway. Last season he posted a laughing emoji when linked with you lot and he ****ed off to sit in the stands at Dortmund, maybe he's got himself sorted and realised he's not gonna get it all on a plate.
He works his arse off trawling the net to bring us any Sunderland news he can find so we don't have to. You know those lists I post every window with the linked players and the articles they were in? That's his sleuthing. The only person collecting and publishing a full list. What he believes is irrelevant as he's not putting across an opinion. He's a good lad. http://rokerreport.sbnation.com/sun.../transfer-window-who-have-we-been-linked-with
Thanks for clarifying Bri. My bad. It was the first thread I opened tonight but I'm now seeing the same thing about Januzaj on other threads. Maybe the Tooth Fairy really is real after all
Just giving you bit of info about him. He gets a lot of stick but has never claimed to be in the know. Just a very dedicated messenger. He'll find the overseas links before the press get hold of them, recyling them and presenting them as their own.
He shares everything he finds mate, but does have a knack of spotting what has legs then pushing the stories related. Excellent researcher with a good eyes and instincts.
It was me that said 40m for Kone. That would be my reply to Everton if they sold Stones and came after him. He is not worth that much but it's all about negotiating and your position of strength. It's why I believe a deal at 30m could be done for the utd pair. As Nads has said their are tools like buy back, sell on fees etc...which could get a deal done. Januzaj will not get a game under Jose, he is an asset so the money for him can be used for something else. It's not like they woukd be selling to a direct rival either as we are not going to be challenging for a top 4 place. I believe a deal is there to be done, if it was me I would make sure SAFC were at the front of the queue.
If he was at another club, with his record, there's absolutely no chance Man Utd would pay anywhere near that amount for him.
How certain of that statement are you? Go and have a look at Martial's record pre-United and then google how much we paid for him
100% certain. None of the top clubs seem interested in him, including Man Utd ...... he won't fetch anything like £25 million.
