This is the least optimistic call for optimism I've ever seen.
United are going for the pair as a joint bid because the Baines move is a tough nut to crack on its own, but they know we want Fellaini shifted for players in and see welding both players to the same process as the nutcracker. If Arsenal came in now for MF it'd **** them right up.
I'd be amazed if we get anywhere near a £45m for the two.
The biggest problem in these negotiations is that Baines and Fellaini are worth a lot more to us than their actual market value. Just look at how Baines is at the fulcrum of our play, but when it's all said and done he's a 28 year old left back, you're not going to find many teams who think it's worth paying £20m for that type of player.
How is that a problem in the negotiations for us? What Baines and Fellaini are worth actual market value is a complete irrelevance. We should be asking for what they are worth to us. Same as southampton have no need to sell Shaw so can ask whatever they like.
Just put 45m on the table and be done with it
We can bring chantome (PSG) ajax cb for around 12m
Moses 8m and a marque midfielder for 15m eriksen would be nice.
10m spare for kenwright to pocket
Howard
Colman jags alderweird oviedo
Chantome
Eriksen barkley
Mirallas jela moses
With a strong squad to fill the bench
Exactly. We aren't eager to sell, so we have the upper hand. If they want them, they'll have to pay a premium.
Everyone is saying this.
How do you know the board aren't eager to sell?

I heard 16m for Eriksen and Alderweireld - absolute bargain. Tbh United offer 25m for Fellaini I'd happily accept us signing those two and having Kenwright pocket the difference.
Sorry, I meant to say I read somewhere that that would be the accepted price for the pair.Where are people hearing Erickson? Am I missing something?
P.S. I'd take that deal in a heartbeat, too.
