@AdamJoseph What happens if it’s just a case of the best players costing that much…?
Does that mean you have to settle for 2nd best, because that is how that tends to work (Spurs have decades of experience here…)
If we really wanted him we would have paid the money, personally i didnt want a player in midfield that got relegated two years in a row. Let’s move on and get players that want to come to Man Utd.
If he really wanted us he could always tell west ham I’ll only play for Man Utd.
🚨💣 BREAKING: Tottenham agree club record deal for Mateus Fernandes, HERE WE GO!
Agreement in place at £85m fixed fee as West Ham accept the price they’ve always asked, 100% guaranteed — as @David_Ornstein reports.
Man United will now focus on different targets in midfield.

@FootballInT80s What a top guy
I do often wonder if he thinks about just deciding to talk bollocks, in full knowledge that no one can challenge him as we’ve broadly not got a clue about South American football.
@razz534988@gloryglorytott Yeah, agree he is a risk and maybe not one worth taking, but he’s a lot more established than Odobert ever was.
Odobert was a cheap punt from a relegated Burnley. Savinho has 13 Brazilian caps at the age of 22 and has spent a couple of years at City. Different pedigree.
@razz534988@gloryglorytott He is miles better than Odobert. The concern is essentially an inactive year, so god knows what that has done to him. But he is (or at least was) a really talented player
@jaythfc89@hckamz It's not particularly dragged out, it's just with 24/7 news and social media we are all caught up in this vacuum of nonsense. We are talking about multi million pound deals, players careers, their families, schools for kids etc. It's all exasperated on here.
Manchester United won’t spend €85m+ to sign Mateus Fernandes, while clubs like Spurs and Real Madrid are prepared to pay what’s necessary for the players they actually want.
Every ambitious club backs its manager in the market. United? Still hunting for the cheapest deals and settling for mid players who can’t even break into their national team’s starting XI.
@Spurs_Optimist@QuantK22 Yeah I guess so. The outcome will determine if it was the right call
He looked lively against Ghana, changed the dynamic in that game.
As you say, he’s done alright. Which in general people can’t process. We seem to live in a time where extremes are the chosen discourse
Starting to think the French front 4 are up there with the very best forward lines ever assembled at a World Cup.
Those older than me will no doubt point out something from the 50’s-80’s and Ronaldo, Rivaldo and Ronaldinho were really special in 2002. But…
@AvonandsomerRob There has never been a golden boot race with the best players on the planet all performing like this tournament. The French front 4 all at the peak of their powers. Messi rolling back the year. Kane scoring. Haaland scoring
