I don't think it's going to happen. What with them wanting Martial and we don't want to sell domestically and let's not forget the incident over Zeki Fryers or how the Berbatov deal went down. And then there are the supposed reports that we offered more for Bale than Real did but they rejected it.

He'd be a good signing. And I think the Sandro links has quietened the Rose links.

Or, wait 12 months, and get him for the price of a tube of lube.

Yeah Spurs aren't coming from a position of strength this time. Clearly an issue there and doesn't seem like he will renew.

If we pay more than £40m then we've had our pants pulled down due to his age, contract situation and also injury concerns.

Seen a few reports of it being a 75m price tag.

They can feck off if that is the case. Not worth that

That’s the sort of price you lot would pay.

Absolutely no way Levy will let him go to Man United, non story dreamt up by the tabloids. The same tabloids that said Poch was going to leave last week.

He's not worth that with 5 years left on his contract, let alone his current position.

Yet he let Walker join City who you were more in direct competition with (at the time) and he is younger and had more time on his deal to run than Toby has.

Never got this Spurs obsession of not selling to United. We're not exactly hated rivals are we? You should bloody love us really because but for us you would have had 20 years of watching Arsenal and Chelsea winning everything before the Sheikh showed up.

However I'm not even sure I want him. Expensive, not exactly young, 2 bad injuries in last 2 seasons.....I think he's better off going somewhere else.

They've spent more on that defence than Small countries spend on theirs.

Good player, but potential glassman?

Near 100m on Stones and Mangala

Spurs still have a stadium to pay for. He can go for 22m next yr. I think he will go for around 50m personally. Which is about 10m-15m more than he is worth but then who gets a player for his worth these days? Especially from a caaaant like Levy

I didn’t derail anything, I simply said that’s the sort of price you would pay.

Mcfc have never payed as much for a player as uniteds three most expensive signings.

If you bought Toby it would be 4 players in that price bracket.

My point was entirely accurate and on topic.

You just didn’t like it, and that’s your problem stockport.

City fan logic:

Paying £250m for 4 players is cheaper than £90m on one

Where have I said that?

posted on 24/5/18

Spurs i feel are cornered into selling him this summer to avoid losing him for free next summer, he's probably in the top 3 CBs in the league but at nearly 30 it's not exactly one for the long term.

Would immediately improve United's starting 11 and allow them to get rid of one of the jokes of CBs they currently have.

Spurs would get imo around 50m to re-invest. If they could get De Ligt could end up with cash plus a defender who has the potential to be better than Alderweireld long term.

Both teams could do well out of this, United shorter term and Spurs longer term.

Walker was a massive mistake by the club. There is no hatred between United and Spurs, but you are currently one of our direct rivals at the top of the Prem, so would be gross negligence to sell players to you.

Would United say sell Spurs one of their best players?

Now this is one 29 year old I wouldn't mind us signing. Desperately need some calmness in amongst the bunch of hot heads we currently have in defence.

Would probably spell the end for at least one of our current CBs though. Hopefully Jones. Injured about 60% of the time, and a ticking-time bomb when he does play. He's managed to stay at this club for far too long.

posted on 24/5/18

We’ll get 3 years out of him minimum I’d say

Get him in. Him and Bailly at the back.

I think our style of play desperately needs CB who can pass a bit
