Money isn't everything! I've kept saying it.

Well done Manu, you made the right choice!

Great to see loyalty has been repaid, but I bet it breaks the bank

It may well do, but at his best he is one of a few players worldwide that you would do that for.
To win is not as important as playing with style!

Some people just can't help themselves.

I am sure the club have offered a deal that works for both the player and the club and have got a plan as to how much they are offering other incoming players and other players re-signing.

Good one

We just need him to stay fit and play as well for us as he has England.

Hopefully it will encourage others to stay ie Genge

Worthy of a text message!

Manu never owed us anything but I’m happy to see loyalty isn’t dead.

This is a huge boost for the club and for Murphy.

Could it be the turning point?

Sensible decision. Sometimes family and friends are worth more than money. Stay fit Manu and enjoy life.

To be fair to Chobbsy the cynic in me says with renewal of season tickets going poorly it gave Cohen et al the impetus to break the bank as they needed the good news ASAP...hence Cohen going down to England camp...a deal along the lines of only available if you sign and announce it this week

The rugby fan in me is ecstatic...Manu when he broke through was by far away my favourite player just hope we can actually build a team to give him some front foot ball going forward :smt023

Good news and echo everything everyone else has said.

Speaks volumes and will hopefully help to attract other players into the club. Manu leaving and going to France would have severly impacted our ability to sign other big names IMO.

would you like to expand on that comment or are you just trying to stir trouble as usual? I forgot we have to clear our opinions with you or concur with your opinions before we post them

I am over the moon also, just worried that there will be enough money left to build up the team around him, as this season has shown we need to build along with keeping our star player
