"we don't sell cheap, that's for sure".
Haha, turned out he was right, ironically.

I dont know if he tried to fake us last night with that Herrero fiasco, but it feels like he might have been trying something amateurish like that to turn the screw on Everton. Whatever the case on that one, he's been shown up on a major stage as someone massively out of his depth in the execution of deals at an elite club. It was staggeringly poor...topped off by that late failed panic bid for Coentrao. He's tried to manage the situation by standing still and showing how resolute he is; but that level he's at now calls for a lot of strategising, flexibility and boldness.
I'd say most of the blame lies with their new CEO. Couldn't imaging Gill operating like that.

no one else to blame now ,he had bill for a blanket and we have no money excuse for years, now he is out in the open for all the world to see. no early movement,last minute panicking, failed bids, fake bids,we ran out of time, oh welcome to the world of the moyes, man united they deserve better.I dont know if he tried to fake us last night with that Herrero fiasco, but it feels like he might have been trying something amateurish like that to turn the screw on Everton.

Maybe, but we have first hand experience of Moyes so we know his patterns whereas we know nothing of Woodward's.
Well, part of it is that sports journos know writing about Everton & their pursuit of McCarthy is not gonna get them readers. Not fair to contrast how we handle our transfer business & how Utd does. We can just fly under the radar because well, there isn't much of a radar.
But I totally agree with you on the Felli deal. Thumbs up to whoever handled it (was it BK?), and the player for being a gentleman.
Now then....who said this?
"If someone comes for [Ross] I've always said it, it's expensive to buy off Everton in the main.
"If you're going to come and try to take our better players we don't sell cheap, that's for sure.
They're blaming Woodward as it's easier than admitting that Moyes is a ditherer in the market. I'd never have a pop at his transfer record, but his dithering was well known.
I'm 100% certain that we'd have not nailed the Lukaku deal last night had Moyes been at the helm, it was always close but no cigar.
I think that's how most transfer payments work, Christian Purslow the ex managing director of lfc said that's the usual structure of deals.one thing i'd disagree with here....we totally tried to low-ball Wigan. Payment over 4 years....
I've said before, there better be permanent signings made in January or there will be riots down country road, I will lead them myself. There should be at least 10m all said and done for Bobby to spend, this absolutely CANNOT go missing. Leading up to the January window, I suggest we start making banners to take to the match to remind BK we haven't forgotten
It will have been quite a simple call just to let him know that we had just agreed a deal for big Vic to join WBA and he would obviously keep him out of the starting 11 there so come to Goodison and I'll guarantee you a game - easy choice !!!Credit to Bobby as well for his part in the Lukaku signing. Between about 9 and 10, all reports were that Lukaku preferred to join West Brom as he was already familiar with everyone there, then they reported on SSN around 10 that Bobby had made a personal phone call to him and the next minute he'd changed his mind completely
