Someone on’t Caf linked an Ornstein tweet saying that a verbal agreement was in place and that United are prepared to pay the 10M Euro release clause. Looks a done deal.
Need to remember, we were heavily linked with him after Klopp announced he was stepping down, but there was something we didn’t like there. Reckon he’ll be another Villas-Boas.

How does that affect PSR is what I’m wondering now…

He is militant about 3 at the back.
Anyone else horny thinking about the first time Slabhead, Evans and Lindelof take the field together?

Such a shame Phil Jones didn’t make it to the dawn of this new Golden Age.

They’re bang up against it. Failure to finish in European places this season will see them almost certainly having to sell players to raise cash to balance the books. He’s unlikely to have much of a budget to work with either in Jan or next Summer, so he’ll have to literally polish the turd.
I’ll be very surprised if he’s the man to take them back to the top.

Irony is it seems Westham rejected him as as well.
Always wondered why.
You also have to remember these people are the people who conducted a “review”, could have got this guy and then decided to keep ETH.

Sporting vs City tuesday next week. ManU will surely try to get Amorim in before that trashing.

I believe John Harvey works for INEOS or is @Sithbare or both
At the time I think it was being rumoured the club chairman was pushing for a bigger payout. The story from journalists linked with our club when Arne was being approached was because Amorim refused to budge from his favoured system which meant a big rebuild was probably going to be needed to accommodate that.
In some ways I think that is reasonable for both parties - You wouldnt want a manager coming in who was only comfortable with one system which his new squad wasn’t set up to play.
It will be interesting to see how Utd adapt to that, particularly given their poor transfer record over the last decade. They have so many poor players they can probably find it easy to upgrade on individuals but how will they do as a unit.

Yes, I do too. I wonder if it was because of all the hoo haa around his apparent move to Liverpool.
Hard to see him being worse than their current choice from the outside.

True. Then again that was an odd choice.
Wonder if they felt he was number 1 and once they moved and fell through they had to shop around.
