tyneside fox Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 United are in negotiation with City for Jeff Schlupp in a £1.5 million deal. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/manchester-united/9908848/Manchester-United-open-talks-over-1.5m-deal-for-Leicester-Citys-Jeffrey-Schlupp.html Gotta be worth more than that surely..
birdwith2beaksandnofriends Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 Don't they want Vardy? He scored 30 for Fleetwood and.... and.... and.... well those 30 for Fleetwood remember?
Kitchandro Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 United are in negotiation with City for Jeff Schlupp in a £1.5 million deal. http://www.telegraph...ey-Schlupp.html Gotta be worth more than that surely.. Well he's been deemed no good enough for our bench so probably not.
sdb Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 Bargain for them. What mugs we're gonna end up looking. Really disappointed.
Vale Blue Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 What a dogs dinner of an arrangement that is,who we working for Utd or City.
Guest shearfox Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 Schlupp has huge potential just unfortunate we haven't gave him the chance to develop here.
KFS Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 Are you lot for real? Promising talent but you can buy a Chris Wood for that money! Cheers Jeff, good luck lad!
johnny the fox Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 they can fook off for that.. typical jock, tight bastard.
FoxKing10 Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 If they let that kid go I'm gonna be really pissed off. He will turn out to be a great talent for united in the future, he has bags of pace and is a defenders nightmare. But I do think he has more chances of getting 1st team football there than here as the homegrown kids are placed firmly at the back of the queue under Nigel . Bet we lose Moore , Panayiotou and dadoo too soon. Why do we need em when we can have fleetwoods finest for a million?
Guest Col city fan Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 What worries me is that United clearly see big potential in Jeff... What are they seeing that Pearson isn't? 1.5 mill is nothing for a player who possibly could become their new Evra in years to come. Interesting...
stevelcfc Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 Are you lot for real? Promising talent but you can buy a Chris Wood for that money! Cheers Jeff, good luck lad! Based on the fact they have just forked out £15 mill on Zaha who i really don't rate, I think that's a shocking offer.
Kitchandro Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 Are you lot for real? Promising talent but you can buy a Chris Wood for that money! Cheers Jeff, good luck lad! We've already got Chris Wood. What we've not got is a back up left back, an in form winger or a decent substitute striker.
Harry - LCFC Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 I sort of think Pearson has brought this upon himself. It was his choice to send Jeff to United and he could've pulled the plug at any time. I get the impression he isn't too concerned about losing him and neither am I to be honest. I realise he has potential but I'm yet to see how he could become a regular at United. No doubt they'll send him out on loan if they do buy him, nowhere near good enough at the moment, not even for us if we're being honest.

stevelcfc Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 Pearson has a history of letting decent young players go, just look at Gradel, and how little we got there, 250k wasn't it?
birdwith2beaksandnofriends Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 Think you guys are overreacting, there is a sweetener to this deal. I can't say too much but it rhymes with Messy Bin Guard. Imagine being able to borrow one of those for a bit.
Guest shearfox Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 He has great raw attributes such as pace and quick feet. If United can improve other aspects he will be a great player without doubt, we should have really played him a lot more to help with his development.

Guest Basildon Fox Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 He has so far showed that he is a capable player and obviously must have the potential to get a lot better. Who would stand in his way if he gets the chance to play for one of the biggest teams in the world?

No doubt they'll send him out on loan if they do buy him, nowhere near good enough at the moment, not even for us if we're being honest. If we're being honest he hasn't really been given much of a chance, certainly not on the left wing, which would probably be his best position and where nobody has really deserved to nail down a spot (baring in mind Knockaert is far better in the centre). And if we're being honest he had one bad game at left back before being unceremoniously dropped and not being picked again, barely even getting on the bench. I don't think anyone is suggesting he is 1st team of Man Utd standard right now but if we are actually being honest, there's not much of argument to say he's not good enough for us, considering he's not been given anywhere near the chances the players ahead of him have. And some of them haven't been all that consistent this season.

And some of them haven't been all that consistent this season. Schlupp gets dropped and thrown on the scrapheap after one indifferent performance. Vardy plays like a wan ker for his obilgatory half hour each week but no scrapheap (and indeed no Man Utd trial) for him. Where is the justice?
Deucalion Posted 4 March 2013 Posted 4 March 2013 It seems to me that every player that isn't playing for us is the next best thing to Messi and the answer to all our problems. Until they get some game time and we realise they are not. Not too bothered either way to be honest.
