Sander doing his best here to hijack City's newest signing and bring him to the lane instead...

If anything we have shown Berge the way to play. He has never been a CDM or playmaker. As an attacking midfielder he is unreal
Doesn’t appear as if we will sell him without getting our money back. Wages aren’t an issue as Bettis suggested so it’s getting the right cash in. I don’t see anyone paying £20m plus for him from the championship & if they do then we wish him well.Won't get half that unfortunately
Sell on clause is £35 millionWon't get half that unfortunately
As nice as that image may be, if he wants to leave he'll leave. That's how it works now. Especially outside the top division.Sell on clause is £35 million
If the club get an offer they are happy with they'll sell him.
And if he wants to move the first time somebody offers us a measly £10 million, he gets told he's not going.
Contrary to popular brainwashing that United's previous owner used to like to spread amongst the fan base, he won't sulk, he'll do his job and make himself more interesting to another buyer.
What's his alternative ?
Sulk? not play? not try? play crap when he does play ?. And let the whole world forget about him?
Career suicide
If Djed Spence is gonna go for £20mil as a full back with his dodgy off field history Berge will comfortably attract offers of that and moreAs nice as that image may be, if he wants to leave he'll leave. That's how it works now. Especially outside the top division.
£12m ish with add ons etc. Be interested to see what Genk get from any sale or if it's % profit.
Spence is English. There's a premium. Also, I don't think they'll get near that amount.If Djed Spence is gonna go for £20mil as a full back with his dodgy off field history Berge will comfortably attract offers of that and more
If someone wants to double my wages, then thanks very much, it’s been great, but I’m off. And so would everyone else.I've seen it happen too many times, selling the best players, and end up in the third and fourth division, doesn't Berg have a contract, these players should honour the contact, he's on a fantastic wage, if he stays, we have a better chance of promotion, the boards at Sheffield United are so spineless, they never look at the bigger picture, the fans are being cheated once again.

He’s an employee. Whether it’s for us or someone else, it’s a business relationship between the player and the clubs that want him on their books. Only in very rare cases is loyalty/history/sentiment worth anything. Billy Sharp?
And from United’s perspective: Make your money back or even a profit to improve 3 or 4 other positions? Again, it’s a business decision made with the knowledge you have at the time and your best guess as to what the future might hold. Sometimes you say stick. Sometimes you say twist. You’ll never know if it was the right decision.
I am a real Berge enthusiast. I think he’s a great player and a real asset to the team (and the handsomest man alive),who’s had terrible luck (COVID and injuries) but if, I don’t know, RB Leipzig want to double his wages and have him play in the top 4 of the Bundesliga, how can he be criticised? Top 4 of the German league or Wigan away? I know what I’d choose.
Exactly this commanding a fee of 20 million, and signing until 2024 is totally different to Joe bloggs at Tesco's Contract, there's a reason why unhappy players can't just hand their notice inExcept footballers are under contract unlike most employees that can do what they like

I would say give your head a sheck lad.What if Berge, turns round to Hecky and says I want to stay and will take a wage cut to play for you.
Very unlikely I know.
I think there'll come a point where we know we have to sell him because he wants to go. I'm talking £12m up front with add ons to get it up to £18m ish too.Carlt I usually agree with the vast majority of your posts but if you think we'll sell him for £12m then you're living in cloud cuckoo land.
McCabe probably would have but no chance PA does!
Even after he spat the dummy out, did he hand his notice in and start on Monday for arsenal? Or did a complex financial negotiation take place to remove him from his contract?Ramsdale?

I just don't see what our leverage to ask for more is if he flat out says he wants out. I'm not saying he isn't worth more, just that our negotiating position is poor
Ramsdale is English and hasn't had injury issues.We'd probably accept £18m with add ons taking it to £22m but there's no way we'd take £12m.
Look what we held out for with Ramsdale.
I've got plenty of issues with The Prince but selling players on the cheap isn't one of them.
