This one is quite simple really

Manure will pay what small levy wants for Aldereweld

Small levy will not pay what manure wants for Martial

We will end up buying a cheap alternaive

While manure will end up with one of the best CB in the world
Still ignoring the facts and acting like a child I see

We are obviously tagging Utd along. We are pretending that we are interested in a swap deal with Martial and Toby then a day before the transfer window shuts, boom! We sign Bale and Toby signs a new contract for us! Levy is a genius!

Oh dear

We all know he’s a troll, just ignore him and report him so the mods can deal with it. All of us talking about how much we hate Cookie Monster just derails the thread, which I imagine was his intention in the first instance.

If there is any chance at all of Yanited selling Martial to us then it's going to have to look like they had absolutely no choice. Last year we still weren't their rivals (apparently) but this year the truth is there for all to see. If they want Toby, they're going to have to deal.
This isn't true though, we're open to selling him without getting AM it seems. United will get what they want, and we won't get what we want.

More of a hope on my part so you're quite right it's not a truth as such. ;)
I know it's a hope but if Martial is our first choice then the best strategy is to play hardball re. Toby. It's a mutually beneficial deal in the case of a swap so it will happen. We have to be prepared to keep Toby though if we don't get what we want. Only in that case will we actually will get what we want.

If we sell them Toby in cash/separately they are then under no obligation to sell us Martial and I don't think they will.

I don't know why Cookiemonster is getting so much abuse (some of it, personal) for this post, especially when the scenario he's predicting is hardly beyond the realms of possibility: Hercules has already said that DL won't be paying the £70-80 million United will demand for Martial, and rightly or wrongly, I'm sure Levy wouldn't hesitate to sell Toby to the Mancs if they're stupid enough to pay the sort of money he'd demand. Would anyone be surprised if we fail to land Martial, and Alderweireld end up at United? I certainly wouldn't. So can't we all have a reasoned debate about that without resorting to name-calling and bully-boy tactics?

Did you read his post? Calling our chairman small Levy is hardly reasoned debate

That isn't reasoned debate. It's the post of a child having a tantrum because they don't think they're going to get what they want.

Ah so therein lies the nub. Well how about re-reading whilst subtracting the "small" (and your corresponding outrage) from his post, and then decide if it seems more reasoned?

No. Because that's not what he posted. I'm not going to respond to something that hasn't been posted.

Not going any further with this either as I don't want my access to the Transfer forum revoked.
