Not fat gutted. Hirsuteness of shoulders TBD.
This is just a masterplan to get Fellaini on the cheap.

He's not at the top of every United fan's Christmas card list either.Not really most of them hate Fabregas.
has anything happened since the BBC and SSN said we made a bid?
To be fair, he has listened to Cesc and his agent's voicemails...
Kagawa was if you actually pay attention to football outside of the PL. Dortmund's best player over two years in which they won the Bundesliga twice. De Gea was the most sought-after young keeper in the world. Still is, in a way, given the way Barca are lusting after him.
You're putting players that we didn't get on a pedestal simply because we didn't get them. How Lucas can be considered high profile but Kagawa not is beyond me. He's done nothing special outside of Brazil yet. And when we were rumoured to be in for Sneijder (we weren't), he was an expensive, past-it crock. How's Nasri done at City, by the way?
He'd be a better option than Thiago for sure, but I can't see Barça selling.
And how dumb would he look going back to England after throwing the toys out of the pram to leave Arsenal, only to end up getting minutes against Gijon
Nah, it's people not using their logic and jumping on a poorly worded post as per usual. I've stated in this thread I'm very happy with our transfers. De Gea was a great transfer but you'll most likely find the Sanchez, Ozil, Sneijder threads and muppetry was far bigger, which is what I mean.
He left Arsenal a team going nowhere to sign for the best team in Spain to win shitloads of trophies and then sign for the best team in England to win shitload of trophies. Don't think he'd look dumb in the slightest. No more than Andy Murray must feel a bit silly about going to those Spanish training camps when he was in his teens to improve his game now he's won Wimbledon.
am i the only perosn who is sure that this leak was done deliberately by club's PR brigade (i miss the Berbatov vs Tevez mega thread where this phrase was used so often...) to make us look bit better in the light of Thiago fiasco?
If United were really interested in signing Cesc why didn't they make an move early?
Shite, I couldn't care less about not signing Nasri.
High profile signings for in the last few years: RvP
High profiles signings against in the last few years: Sanchez, Lucas, Thiago, Nasri, Ozil, Sneijder. Probably more I've forgotten.
As good as De Gea, Kagawa, Hernandez and other signings have been, they are not high profile are they?

Yet you'll use us not signing him as an example to prove your point?
Has anyone wondered how they come up with these random amounts as bids? 25.9? What is the completely arbitrary 900k doing there? Make it 26, for crying out loud
Could it genuinely be that we weren't that interested in Thiago, and that we've been buttering up Cesc all along?
Its not. We bid 30m euros which just happens to be 25.9 m gbp.Has anyone wondered how they come up with these random amounts as bids? 25.9? What is the completely arbitrary 900k doing there? Make it 26, for crying out loud
Rumour was that RvP expected Barca to come in for him, and, when they didn't, we were his second choice.

I honestly didn't think you were that stupid.
30m eurosHow much did Barca sign Cesc for?
So we offer an amount that is too low, Barca say no and say that Arsenal have first refusal on him. Barca then say to Arsenal that United want him, and they have rejected a bid on the basis that Arsenal have first refusal, and they are looking to sell him. Arsenal say they cannot accomodate him into their plans/wages right now, so have to say no. Barca then tell us that Arsenal no longer have first refusal, and its open season. We offer £35m and he's ours
Its on!!
30m euros
I honestly didn't think you were that stupid.
Not sure but actually I thought it was Rising to 30m euros. And that is also dependant on 3 la liga titles, so If we do get him, arse will lose money.Rising to 35m depending on appearances I thought?
