Sporting have told Manchester United they can sign William carvalho for no less than 37 million


1.) 02 Jul 2014
No deal then.


2.) 02 Jul 2014
I don't get why people would say no deal?. Yeah sure 37 million is a lot for a unproven premier league player. But the money's not coming out off your pocket or mine? It's come from the winning seasons and all the competitions we've won. Why not spash the cash if it's there?

We will sign him I think but the football world has gone mad with these prices being banded around, clubs know we are desperate to rebuild so were going to be ripped off left right and centre. I don't care frankly paying over the odds because its not my money, after paying an obscene amount for fellaini can we expect anything else.

Too much.

Well_be_black, because that money could go towards other players, I'd much rather pay £5m more for Vidal

Every player is over priced now adays.
Ronaldo and messi are the best players in the world yet bale is the most expensive player ever?

Carvalho is 21 what if he turns out to be a yaya toure? We'd soon then be saying it was a good purchase

Anon Vidal would be my first choice pick all day that's not the point the point is carvalho is very highly rated. Vidal is a world class proven player no doubt but what of carvalho can become just as good? 21 Aswell we could get a good 10-12 years from him

Well_be_back, Fresh said it as if United officials will scrimp and not pay that fee. Hence the comment


9.) 03 Jul 2014
Bennett what when we've just paid out 30+ million on a left back and 30 on a midfielder?. But yeah united officials ain't willing to splash out

Well-be-back- bale was a huge fee but suarez is worth more, so are messi and ronaldo if they was ever sold. but agree with you splash the cash them days of getting a bargain player are over, if these players help us win trophies that money is getting re-payed, E.g- RVP, £24mill. won us the prem almost single handedly.

Alright, no need to get so touchy! I was just trying to help explain but oh well, here we go again.

We've paid those fee's for proven players in proven leagues. Carvalho is coming from the Portuguese league and well, given the past few years of thrifting by United officials, the doubt is there for some United supporters about how much we'll pay for certain players. Also, Fresh is Ed Woodward so I'd listen if he says no deal ;)
