£35m bid rebuffed apparently

Classic Ed.

Wait until a couple of hours before the window closes, then low-ball a team who will be even more reluctant to sell because they won't be able to replace the outgoing player in time.

Genius.

Genius.

He's played 8 first team games, they're hardly losing some star.

Ey up Ed’s logged on.

Hang on, I thought the geniuses behind that ‘United crisis’ article said we could get him for £20m this summer?

The usual online shit-stirrers, but it does sound about right.

We were/are interested in him, we need a midfielder, and Ed is leading the negotiations. It all adds up.

So he’s doubled in price despite not playing?

Exactly. My point being we could never have got him for £20m, as soon as it became known we were interested the price rocketed

No clue Pal, I didn’t write the piece?

Maybe it’s something to do with the change in manager or perhaps it’s absolute %@#$&!s?

When we bid £30m and were turned down, apparently?
