It should be an interesting next couple of weeksHe's damned if he does and damned if he doesn't though if he comes and he's brilliant everyone will forget you overpaid if he's rubbish everyone jumps on the price tag again.
Selling clubs set a price and in most cases they stick to it Utd did it with Lukaku in the summer and eventually got what they wanted but they had to do the dance with Inter all summer.
I do think in this case Sporting are quite desperate so Utd have the chance to drive the price down and hope they crack but if they go down this road they have to be prepared to walk away... my issue is with the squad being the way it is can we afford to walk away and get nothing. If we were only £5m apart you'd say probably just pay it but right now Utd and Sporting seem miles apart.
