WUEDP?

On another thread.

12 month contract, 100k a month. 1.2 million for a very highly rated keeper, admittedly only a year, but that seems like decent money and that's assuming we're picking up all his wages which l doubt .

[Steve Mackan]

I, for one, am buzzing!

Great signing, of quality stock, looking forward to the puns.

We don't actually know the pay structure. Maybe Man U are paying a percentage?

 

[Boxer Blade]

Not keen on that Barnet

Looks like Grealish,thats a bad start.

 

[Esablade]

Shame Blackman won't be back but a bit of a coup eh?
Believe he kept 13 clean sheets and won a host of awards for Shrewsbury last season...and we've always got Moore competing if he has wobble.

GLTTL.

 

[North East Blade]

Love him already

 

[drinksmat]

So that's 10% of the Brooks money spent then !

I suspect ManU will be paying at least something. Its not like they need the money

Pocket? I will let him off, he was so excited,welcome to the Lane Dean.

 

[SwitchBLADE Smiles]

A pocket of woodbines?

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Have we ever had a player from Man U thats actually been any good.

Big jump from Shrewsbury to the real United.

Only seen him once in the POF and i thought that the Rotherham goalie was better.

In an interview on the official Manchester United website the former Shrewsbury Town stopper has explained why he chose to join up with the Blades, rejecting the chance to come to Ashton Gate among other places.

A long-standing relationship between Manchester United and Sheffield United appears to have had a large bearing.

“I can’t wait to go there to build on the last season I had at Shrewsbury,” said Dean to ManUtd.com.

“It’s in the division above and showing that progression by going on to the next bigger stage, in front of 30,000 passionate fans at Bramall Lane. I can’t wait to go there and perform and connect with them. I’m sure it will be a successful season.

“Sheffield United are a massive club and it’s a massive city for football. They’ve got that rivalry with Sheffield Wednesday and I’m looking forward to those games coming up as well. I can’t wait to get there and push up the division.”

And specifically, why the move to Sheffield United rather than other clubs such as the Robins?

“There were a hell of a lot of loan clubs and I’m thankful to all of them for coming in,” Dean added.

“But I chose Sheffield United and a manager who has shown trust in me, plus a goalkeeping coach here in Wardy [Darren Ward], and I’m looking forward to learning and hopefully getting better and better.”

United have previously loaned Joe Riley and James Wilson to Sheffield United previously.

“Funnily enough I spoke to Joe last night about the manager,” Dean added. “He spoke really highly of him and, speaking to Chris Wilder, he has come across as really delighted to have me. It was a no-brainer and it gives me the platform to go there, play games and, hopefully, be a key part of the success there next season.

“I like the fact he’s a Sheffield lad and a Sheffield United fan. He is really passionate about where he wants the club to go and he wants hungry, ambitious young players to help him do that. It’s good as I’m an ambitious lad and, hopefully, we’ll hit it off well.”
