That's all this thread has become. Cringey songs and crap nationality jokes.

Let's be honest, the transfer fees have gone insane, even £89 million for Pogba is already looking like a bargain 1 year later...
If we win silverware with him does it really matter? We'll buy someone else and Madrid can have him back for 140m.
But I seriously doubt he'd go back after being sold off twice!
Not necessarily. It's possible that after joining Juventus and being wanted by Madrid again, and subsequently signing for them again that he got that out of his system already. When he leaves this time it'll likely be for good. Besides, players do leave Real and have success elsewhere without returning, Robben being the most obvious example.
Not so sure about that to be honest.
I think his dream is still to make it at Madrid, thus, he would take the chance to go back in my opinion.
United 2 - 1 Real Madrid in the Super Cup. Morata to get the winner.
I don't know why you'd think that tbh. There isn't anything to suggest he would want to go back. If anyththing the fact that he's determined to go elsewhere for more game time suggests otherwise.
I can see this being wrapped up this week sometime. Probably around £59m or something. I can't see us paying anything like the figures quoted.
He started only 27 league games in 2 seasons in Serie A.
Let's conclude this one already Woody
So, is this kid gonna be our #1 CF, do you reckon? Or will we sign another striker?
Some signings I have an instinctive feeling will be underwhelming or have a high 'flop' potential.
I had this feeling with Zlatan, and was proved totally wrong.
Have it again massively with this signing, hopefully I'm wrong again.

The De Gea bit seems like pure speculation, but maybe the negotiations are more drawn out than we thought.

Hopefully a goalscoring number 10. Mata as good as he is isn't quite up to the level we require to be winning the league.
They will attempt to fleece us for Morata, then attempt to screw us over De Gea? How does that work, exactly? If they attempt to make us pay over the odds, we will do exactly the same thing to them. Or just tell them to piss off entirely. Which would be my preferred outcome.
Rumours of Chelsea with an improved offer. Hope this doesn't become Pedro 2.0 ...
That's about as clever as us trying to get Bains and Fellaini in a double deal as it would work out cheaper.
Just means we get Lukaku then. No biggie.
I don't think we'll attempt to do the deal with Madrid for Morata if we are serious about keeping De Gea and not allowing him to go anywhere
My thoughts exactly
makes not a word of sense.Please do! I'm not bothered about Chelsea signing Pedro, and to be honest, I'd rather we signed a different CF than Morata.
The De Gea part is pure speculation on Stone's behalf. However, it wouldn't surprise me if Madrid are making this stupidly drawn out because of our past clashes on transfers.
IMO, there is probably alot of "fax anger" going into these discussions and making things tediously long.
Well until then he has to work for it....and I hope we reap the benefits.
Why Madrid is getting rid of this guy? He is young and if he is also good...why?
Because they won't drop Ronaldo or Benzema.
Ronaldo will never be benched, they like benzema because of the link up play with ronaldo and perez wants his shiny new toy (Mbappe)
Morata outscored Benzema, he's a very good striker.
He wants to leave and play more games regularly instead of coming of the bench.
Madrid don't want to get rid. Hence why they're asking for such a high price.
Morata wants to leave. He can't get minutes with BBC ahead of him.
Probably just pot stirring by Madrid...As it seems Chelsea are very much in for Lukaku.
Simple we quote de geas price as morata plus 25 m €. Now it's up to them to decide morata's and de gea's price, if de gea forces his move which I don't think he will.
From AS and/or SPORT. BAsically the worst outlets in spain.
Yeah. Still hope we get this done quickly. No point haggling over a few quid for such a crucial, in-demand player.
unless outlets like COPE start running these stories about Chelsea or De Gea, it's all BS. Simple. AS/SPORT/MARCA etc etc are absolute dogshite.
You guys will have a hell of a striker in your hands, maybe i can give you a bit of an insight(considering i watched all of his games for juve):
The guy is a beast, what he thrives on is mostly counteratacking football and you will be suprised how pacey he is and how good he moves off the ball. But what really makes him great player to have in your squad is he is clutch af, big game player and i can assure you he won't hide in those derbies. I think he will suit perfectly into Mourinhos playstyle, considering he also tracks back and contributes in deffence. TBH i was a lot more frustrated of the loss of Morata and Vidal, than i was when we lost Pogba, so that should speak for itself.
Anyway a lot of you that havent watched him and judge him only on his stats will be in for a big suprise!

Exactly. I can't believe people prefer Lukaku over him. Lukaku maybe PL proven (even there he rarely turns up against quality opposition) but Morata has done it in the fecking Champions League against Bayern and Real.
Let the brute go to Chelsea. I want the class act
That's the last thing he wants to do.
This. Also, if we REALLY want Morata we'd blow Chelsea out of the water.
This comment will be lost on most readers lol
You reckon he will score an own goal for real which proves to be our winner ?
Funnily enough, I was saying only yesterday that it was strange that Conte is not in for Morata as he signed him for Juve and also tried to sign him for Chelsea last summer - maybe they were just waiting for it to be confirmed that Madrid would sell
