it seems every bid we put in gets rejected. every headline reads 'United have bid for a player rejected'.
i can only assume Eddy Woodward has a conversation with other clubs along the lines of:
Ed: 'hi how much you want for your player'?
other club: 'we want £20 mil'
Ed: 'will you take £17 mil'?
other club: 'no, go away'!

The irony of a self-appointed "Del Boy" criticizing a bit of "wheeling and dealing". Quality.

Would like to point out, I'm not defending Woodward here (he's definitely a tw@), just appreciating the irony.

I think the trouble is we are starting to reek a bit of desperation, so therefore teams are asking well over what they would normally ask.
I think if we had managed to sign fabregas or thiago it would have put us in a much stronger position to sign other players, as the teams of the players we are interested in, wouldn't be looking at us, as if we are desperate to sign them. That's why Everton want a ridiculous amount for Fellaini and baines IMO.

What a plonker!
