It's a strange statement from Utd. You can take from it that they wouldn't have signed Telfer had they known he'd cost so much, that in turn suggests they don't value him that highly. Young players are always a gamble, I noticed the much lamented Dylan McGeough once of this parish is now ploughing his furrow at Easter Road on loan, Telfer could go on to become a great player or also might find himself losing direction in a few seasons time.

 

But for Utd to complain so bitterly is ridiculous, I wonder if they'll get brought up on a disrepute charge.

it's more that they now won't be able to snap up our other youths.

They're probably only coming out with that patter because they think it's another way of having a pop at Rangers, as in "pfff, you're player isn't even worth that".

 

I doubt it's what they're really thinking though, as I'm sure they value him much higher than £200k and see potential to make some serious cash from him if they give him games.

They are stretching it a bit claiming credit for Gary Mackay-Steven who was at Ross County, Liverpool, Fulham and Airdrie before he landed at Tannadice.

 

Craig Conway was at Ayr Utd for a good while before Dundee Utd and Andy Robertson only spent one season on Tayside. It's like us claiming credit for Naismith and Jelavic.
