All we've heard are the reasons why we can't hold on to our top prospects, instead of perhaps telling us how we intend to persuade him his immediate future lies under the stewardship of CW
not a cat in hells chance of keeping him but lets just make sure we get plenty for him and insert a 20 per cent sell on clause and please please mr mcabe let chris have the money to reinvest in the team
Its difficult to know where to start?Quote:

So imagine you were Brooks agent and today we offered him £5K a week for 5 years = 1.25 million contract
Imagine we double our highest paid player and give him £20K a week for 5 years = 5 million contract
What I'm trying to say is that based on fans thinking he's the next superstar, then surely his agent will want a massive £30K a week.
But even at those obscene wages it could still be a great investment.
However imagine how the other players will feel when a young kid who's hardly played gets triple and quadruple what solid pros are paid. Would it not destroy the team spirit, would other players demand a double or triple pay rise.
Not saying this will happen but it's not as simple as "pay him what ever he wants'
We almost fell for that when we had Ebanks-Landell, many were convinced he was the next Chris Morgan and he should offer Wolves £500K and build our defence around the dominating EEL making him one of our highest paid players.
Also to be fair United as a business like almost every club in England.Quote:

Every club in the world apart from Real Madrid and possibly Barcelona are a selling club, so we are no different.
The objective is to get a good deal and make sure most of it is re-invested to make the team better overall.
There no way he'll be sold for 2 or 3 million, like some think.
I hope we keep him.
