They can take that chance too as clubs like Southampton, Leicester and Wolves (jinx?) look fairly rubbish so far and have just as much chance as Fulham and Bournemouth of staying up IMO.Its a calculated bet to improve their squad and either stat in PL this season (might be unlikely) or more likely get relegated but with good squad get back again.
Similar bet to Villa not selling Grealish to us for £25m/30m as new owners 'bet' that with Grealish in side they could get out of Championship into PL (worth say £150m versus selling Greaish for 25m). They got that bet right, got back into PL giving Grealish PL pedigree and persuaded ManCity to vastly over pay for Grealish.
Will Notts Forest also luck it out and win their bet ? No idea but odds don't look too bad ?
I’d sell PEH for Modric and £30 million.
That’s why I think if they offer £40m we will accept. As we have 3 more base players, swapping Hojbjerg for a 6-8 type (8 who can drop into 6 when chasing or when injuries require).Obviously I would. Hojberg will rotate this season. He is not unsaleable by any means, however I don’t see Madrid offering what we want for him. Bissouma, bentancur and skipp are also very good
He’s good for sure, but let’s be honest, his level was raised immeasurably by the inexplicable continuous brilliance of Modric and Kroos.I really don't like Casemiro going to Utd. He's quality. But if it IS a 4-year deal, then I look forward to him playing well until he gives up like Ronnie and then milks them for the next 3 years, during his retirement.
They basically are trying the most reputable players that could be interested in joining them. No project or nothing. Just big names. Just like varaneI really don't like Casemiro going to Utd.

How did you get 4 disagrees for this?I’d sell PEH for Modric and £30 million.
Because he’s wrong?How did you get 4 disagrees for this?

Thanks. That makes me feel better. I look forward to more of the slow car crash viewing!He’s good for sure, but let’s be honest, his level was raised immeasurably by the inexplicable continuous brilliance of Modric and Kroos.
I’m not sure he’s going to improve United to the level that you would expect a 60 million midfield signing to.
Casemiro is an old fashioned clogger. Excellent at breaking up the play, winning the ball and passing it off to the more gifted midfielders. But he’s not going to run games or dominate the midfield in the way de Jong would have for them.
Because the world, it seems, is presently very ready to misconstrue, and, get triggered?How did you get 4 disagrees for this?
Conte gets away with it, but Tuchel doesn't!whats he implying
yeh people just don't get it, annoying.No big deal imo if hoijberg goes. As long as we get a good price. Then I think we will get zaniolo with the cash.
