    The million dollar question.

    We're going in with an opening bid of £65 million. His release clause is £73 million.

    A lot of Man Utd fans don't think they're really in for him. Apparently they're fully focussed on PL proven options this summer, so are expecting a move for Watkins or similar. They suspect noises to the contrary are Leipzig or Sesko's camp trying to drive up the price/wage offer from NUFC.

    Yup. They want a bidding war to drive the price up.
    Noises are that he is interested in us and we are willing to offer a decent wage offer.

    We are still after Guehi

    I'd prefer Scalvini to Guehi, but would still be very pleased with either.

    Guehi has more pace; Scalvini is more physical. Take either at this point.

    Knowing us we'll put a panic bid in for Conor Coady or something

    We are where we are, with only Elanga in, because we haven't been panicking and signing dross. Even Ramsdale, if that transpires, doesn't feel like that. That one looks more like going low expense to cover a lower priority position.

    Sounds like they have finally realised that going in to the new season with Pope as first choice is a very very bad idea.

    He might still be. There isn't much between the two, according to player analytics.

    Pretty amusing though for all our social media fans bed wetting about alleged ITKs, not one of them, including Romano and Ornatein knew anything of the deal with Ramsdale

    And all of this Isak talk may be the same.
    He hasn't said anything and Howe has only hinted that he wants to keep him.

    We probably leaked that we were after Ekitike to throw Liverpool off the scent.

    If they do we are going to absolutely rinse them. Plus there is no guarantee that if he did join them that he would be success. He's the player he is because of the system he plays in with the players around him.

    Camouflaging our Calvert-Lewin move. Good idea.
