Well Irwin will have contacts within the club.
Edit: not the Caf poster.

Lost credibility when they announced Thiago was due for a medical.
Hopefully, he's a long time admirer of Moyes
Only last week I was infracted for abusing you Steve, but look at us now, best of ... enemies.Oh dear...
Moyes launches furious attack on Fabregas:

Denis Irwin=Nostrodamus:
Think Fabregas himself would be a much bigger stumbling block than Barca in all honesty, really doubt he would move to us.It's been said before, but Barca's silence is promising. They surely would have rejected it by now if they had absolutely no intention of selling.

I'll get you, Steve, one day!
The last time the BBC reported a bid as fact was when RVP joined.
FAbregON!!!
With all jokes aside though, my head still hurts from the Thiago Alcuntara saga.
I do not think my poor heart can take another month of muppet madness![]()
By now? It's been 4 hours.It's been said before, but Barca's silence is promising. They surely would have rejected it by now if they had absolutely no intention of selling.

Right, I assume the club knows enough about Fabregas to know he'll at least consider moving here. They'd hardly bid for a player knowing he'd have no intention of joining. Also, Barcelona accepting a bid could also persuade Fabregas that his career lies elsewhere.Think Fabregas himself would be a much bigger stumbling block than Barca in all honesty, really doubt he would move to us.
Then you've never been infracted, cause you're not cool.How do you actually know you've been infracted? I honestly don't know?
I just can't believe we would submit an official bid without at least sounding out the agent/player before... it would be useless to talk to the club, and yeah, I'm aware it's not exactly legal, but common practise, to do it this way (i.e. tapping up without actually tapping up). This is what makes me raise an eyebrow... I guess we already talked to the agent (at least), and Barcelona haven't rejected the bid yet. So there might be a slight chance after all IMO.Think Fabregas himself would be a much bigger stumbling block than Barca in all honesty, really doubt he would move to us.
I don't get why Barca has to reject anything publicly just because United has leaked an alleged bid for Fabregas?
Their "silence" doesn't say shit to be honest.
True, the bid might have already been rejected. They are not going to sell him for £26m and if we are indeed going to follow this with another bid, which is probably the case, then it'll take at least another 3-4 weeks to finalise this transfer knowing our speed when it comes to transfer sagas. We certainly won't sign him by the end of July.I don't get why Barca has to reject anything publicly just because United has leaked an alleged bid for Fabregas?

I'd say we need a few anti-Nevillers to balance it out.
Who would be an anti Neviller though?
This will all end in tears.

I am thinking that we must have had some encouragement from Cesc to put a bid in. He and RvP are big mates so there is unquestionably a link there.
This bid does lend credibility to Thiago 'not being a priority'. You can see how his contract demands and his lack of experience might have sown seeds of doubt in Moyes's mind. Cesc is a proven Premier League player. Cesc will know that if he joins us then he will get a starring role in his preferred position, rather than being moved from pillar to post in the shadow of Xavi and Iniesta. He will likely get a nice pay rise too.

Yeah me too, I'm known in those circles as a "Subscriber", it's quite the royal title I'll have you know.I get an email from the club with insider information every few days.
This.This will all end in tears.
Anderson will probably drink all the fecking tears.This.
Apart from for Anderson - whose song will remain intact.
I fell asleep and I've woken up feeling shitty with no more Fabregas news. FML.
Naah, transfers dont work the legal way mate. There's no way we'd make a bid and then haggle with barca on the fee etc for weeks only to be told "not interested" by fabregas when we're finally given permission to talk to him. the first contact has to be with the player's camp to know if he's interested.
