Winter Transfer window 24/25

I can see why it's hard to follow given how your stance has changed in the past 24 hours.

According to you, Utd showed their pull with players by beating other top clubs to the signing of Yoro and the reports that Tel wanted to join you. When others pointed out that Real weren't willing to pay anything like what Utd paid for Yoro (they wanted him on a free this summer iirc) you dismissed the argument and said Yoro could have just rejected Utd if that was the case. Fast forward 24 hours and Tel is now joining Spurs and your first reply is 'well Spurs must have paid a hefty fee'. There a clear inconsistency in how you see Utd signing players and players signing for other clubs.

I think in the case of both players, certainly Yoro (we don't have enough info on Tel yet), that Utd fended off interest from other clubs by paying well in excess of what others were willing, giving Yoro one choice. It's very possible that will prove to be the case here too.
Do you have a source for Tel rejecting us for Spurs as you're claiming?

Talk about missing the point.

As per my last sentence, I strongly suspect he didn't reject you and has simply been faced with a choice of Spurs or staying at Bayern. Which by all accounts was the exact same situation with Yoro in the summer however that didn't stop you attempting to claim that the Yoro signing showed Utd's pull with top youngsters.

Oh right, you're making things up ok. I thought you were trying to make a valid point.

And no I didn't say that at all. Woppy said we couldn't pull top youngsters and I said we did in the summer. I didn't say anything about him choosing us over Real as you seem to be claiming. I said he wanted to move to us and if he wanted to only move to Real he could have rejected us and waited for Lille to get desperate or moved for a free next season.

You literally replied to woppys post about players not wanting to join Utd with:
You mean like the CB that Real wanted that moved to us less than a year ago?
If that's not using the Yoro signing to prove Utd's pull then we're speaking different languages.

That's literally what I wrote in my post Baz. Did you get lost in the three lines? Here I'll quote it
I said he wanted to move to us
Which bit is confusing you?

Jeez, as I said earlier talk about missing the point.

Beyond just digging now, I'm really not sure what you're finding difficult. Yesterday, when it suits you, you're using an example of a player that only has one option (because nobody else would offer what Utd did) joining Utd as it showing how the best want to join you and 24 hours later when Spurs sign a player under the same circumstances your first reply is 'Spurs must have paid a hefty fee'.

To be clear if it wasn't already, I'm highlighting the shameless hypocrisy of your posting.
 
'only has one option'

Or he could have rejected and stayed at Lille either for a year or until Lille buckled and accepted Real's offer instead of losing him on a free. But sure "one option" Hey remember when Tel accepted Spurs transfer move because he only had one option? No, me neither.

Now you've reached the point where you start throwing out personal insults, claiming you aren't and that you're misunderstood and then you'll start deleting posts again.
 
The thing is, sometimes with transfers there's a conflict of interest of the clubs and the player. Yoro is a good example because I believe he initially wanted to go to Real Madrid, but they were willing to wait until his contract expired which meant Lille wouldn't prosper as much financially versus someone buying him last summer.

I have no idea what's happening with the Tel situation as the Spurs transfer doesn't seem to align with what has previously been said. For example, Bayern wanted an obligation to buy clause apparently but whilst the structure of the Tel to Spurs deal hasn't been made public, it's understood it doesn't include a buy obligation.

Because they must have offered something else, it's the only option. As much as Baz likes to claim, Bayern aren't going to reject an identical offer from United but accept it from Spurs.

I've not made any personal insults but it's no surprise you're going to go down this deflection route like you always do. At least this time you hadn't just insulted two members a few posts earlier like last time. And I never claimed I was misunderstood before and only deleted your moaning off topic post. All my posts, including the one you got upset about are still there :)

And in reply to your next post, I've made no reference to Bayern rejecting an identical offer from Utd. My very point is I believe that Spurs most likely have offered more than others and that's the same as what happened in the summer with Yoro. Your way of explaining the two deals is of course very different and you have to accept that people will call you out on it.

Again you ignored my posts. I guess if you can call me a hypocrite I can call you a troll then? Or would you then start deleting posts?

Spurs offered 60m, Bayern accepted, he rejected them. How does that support your argument then Baz? Surely he had only one option!

No, you can't call people trolls. If you think I've been hypocritical then knock yourself out if you can back it up.

And no, what his options were yesterday are not the same as today Shami but you're still (probably intentionally as a deflection) missing the point. 24 hours ago you're using a near identical transfer scenario to prove Utd's pull and today when rolls are reversed you reply 'Spurs must have paid a hefty fee'. Talk about having your cake and eating it.

But anyway, I'm sure you won't agree with my interpretation and we'll go round in circles so it can be left there.
 
Lol you calling me a hypocrite and then trying to do backflips to explain how Yoro had "only one option"! But Tel didn't is absolutely hilarious Baz :D
 
I said both only had one option Shami :confused:
But he rejected the permanent move? That sounds like two options Baz.

1. Accept offer, move to Spurs
2. Reject offer, don't move to Spurs.

How many options is that Baz?

Apologies for not spelling it out for you, the only option of a move was to Spurs. Just like the only option of a move for Yoro was to Utd.
