Give Chelsea 48 hours to reconsider, then walk.
Way too much imo, especially considering Liverpool got MacAllister for nearly half that
I guess we'll soon find out if our final offer was our final offer

🚨 Chelsea reject 3rd Man Utd bid for Mason Mount (£50m + £5m). #CFC make counter-proposal of £58m + £7m & offer to meet #MUFC to find amicable solution. There’s hope of quick resolution so 24yo doesn’t miss preseason + start of new campaign @TheAthleticFC
The United brief that their last offer was their final one (in broad brush strokes) really does put them in a bind. Chelsea assumed they’re bluffing and is calling it. Chelsea haven’t said this is their final offer so they have left themselves space in the negotiation to “try it on” and come down if United do walk. There’s time for this to get resolved. I think most people who want United to walk away (rather than hold firm and let Chelsea stew a little while) don’t really think Mount will add a lot to the team. Am I right?
