If we sell him for 4 million then I will personally self destruct.
That would just about sum up united, selling our best players on the cheap, as usual.
Saints got 10 million for both Walcott and Bale, neither had played in the prem before they moved.
hell take right back cos phil nevill is shite!
The same gets said about Gary and he's the best fullback this country has produced in the past 50 years.
Urban myth. He never has and never will be shite.

Blades admit Jags defeat
BRYAN Robson today revealed he is planning a future without Phil Jagielka after the England B international indicated he is unlikely to stay at Bramall Lane.
Robson, Sheffield United's new manager, met with the £4- million-rated defender earlier this week in an attempt to persuade him to remain in South Yorkshire.
But Jagielka, who is being courted by Everton, Wigan and Aston Villa, confirmed that United's relegation last season has convinced him the time is right to cut his ties with a club he has served with distinction since progressing through the ranks at Shirecliffe.
"Keeping Phil looks like it is going to be a problem," Robson told The Star. "He's told me that, if possible, he would rather stay in the Premiership, providing its the best thing for both him and the club.
"My job now looks like it's going to be trying to ensure we get the best deal possible.
"That's what I'll be trying my best to do."
News of Jagielka's imminent departure will be a bitter but not unexpected disappointment for Robson who made no secret of his determination to hold on to United's prized asset when he was appointed as Neil Warnock's successor last month.
Everton are leading the chase to secure the youth-team graduate's signature and, significantly, Goodison Park chief David Moyes was watching when Jagielka made his debut for Steve McClaren's second string against Albania at Turf Moor a week ago.
Jagielka's admission also rubs further salt into wounds still smarting following United's controversial return to the Championship.
Aattention will quickly switch to Jagielka's replacement. Despite being linked with a host of names, including David Healy, Kieran Richardson and Jason Koumas, Robson's lips are tightly sealed.
"I could speak and talk all day about the players that I've been linked with," he said, "But I'm not going to do that. It's my intention to keep the majority of this squad."
