I'm a bit worried about the news today regarding the Herrera bid. If this was the start of the summer most wouldn't be happy to spend potentially 36 million euros on a player who doesn't even have an international cap. Especially when players like strootman, modric, paulinho and thiago were available for much cheeper. Even that amount of money bid for players like gundogan, marchisio, mata, ozil, kroos, dembele, vidal, khedira, bender, gustavo, sandro would make teams think twice about selling.
I think Moyes is panicking.

Very good post and you have to wonder what is going on with Mr. Woodward. Most people forget Moyes will have nothing to do with the deal.

if we were pay his clause of 36 million you have to question who else would be available for those kind of numbers and if we are doing a nani anderson type purchase that when we look back it money poorly spent.

What dembele, erickson(soon to go) went for makes you wonder why we are not bidding for these players.

I said several weeks ago that nobody wants to join us and that will at the last minute panic and go in for Fellaini.

Something he should have done 7 weeks ago
