Is it seven league goals in two games now? Let me know when Lukaku ever does that... has he even scored more than one goal in any league game except for the very first one against an atrocious West Ham?
Lukaku in very good form. Odd time to take a pop at him.
 
100m is a bargain but he'd create more problems than answers for us and that point stands for last summer as well tbh (as much as I wanted us to sign him)
 
Hat-trick tonight. Something has obviously given him a bit of a lift.
Little prick.

It would be a very dirty move, if he signed for MUFC.
But when Barca come in for him, he can't wait to sign on the dotted line. :lol:

if he does move to Barca, I'd be interested to hear what the fans who honestly believed his BS think about it all. Some of them were absolutely convinced he'd join us either in January or the coming Summer transfer window. A few posters in here were getting aggressive with me, when I dared to suggest that he has snubbed us and given a BS reason.
 
I'm afraid Barca is turning to another Galacticos. focusing on buying as much stars as possible and disregarding the real issues with the team.
 
Hope he'll go down the route of Arda Turan (though he is too good for that). Unbelieveably disappointing. Why would you leave Atletico for Barca?

Money, bigger club, better teammates and an attacking philosophy.
 
So you've watched Bundesliga games and you don't understand why Dembele is one of the most sought-after talent? The fee they paid is on par with how ridiculous fees have become. He's had about as rough a start to his Barcelona career as you can, a lot of it due to injuries. However, if you actually did watch him, it's pretty easy to see how special of a player he has the potential to become. I have a good feeling he'll make you eat your words sooner rather than later.

Maybe I’ll eat my words although I could care less what that club does. Perhaps time will tell or maybe they’ll replace him. Makes no difference to me I just don’t think he’ll make it there long term. If you support Barca then fair play for defending him.
 
Of course he is :lol: the guy is an absolute diamond, he's just had a very bad injury and getting back his fitness. How can you watch him and think he isn't good?

Didn’t say he wasn’t good - just don’t think he’ll be a starter (at Barca) and the transfer fee made no sense.

Yeah, I'm the same as you as far as Barcelona is concerned, I don't really care what ends up happening. But I support Dembele since his days at Rennes, I saw something special then and he went beyond confirming it at Dortmund. He just has a special something that I don't see in other young players. I just think his terrible luck with injuries has really skewed the view on what he's capable of and I think his talent is too much to not come out of it. Obviously time will tell. I was just surprised that you said you've watched him in Dortmund and came to the conclusion that he most likely won't make it at Barcelona.
 
I was so hyped for this move last May, was convinced it was going to happen and I do think it probably would have had the ban not happened, we got some shitty luck there. That being said, he was clearly never that bothered and I hope he flops at Barcelona if he goes, incredibly petty but I don't care.

I agree except for the flopping part. Like the guy overall but it's clear he wasn't as enticed with coming here as his brother was.
 
That's fair, though I think Griezmann could feed Lukaku well and I think he still looks dangerous for Atletico on the right.

Ultimately, we probably made the wrong move bringing in Mourinho and not a manager who would trust and develop Martial and Rashford .

Martial and Rashford both have been allocated plenty of game time. It's up to them to kick on and grab their opportunities with both hands. If they don't, it's hardly the managers fault. To be fair to Martial, though, he's done alright when playing in from the left. Sanchez was too good to turn down; unlucky for him, I guess. Now he has to adapt, (or accept less play time), because he's undeniably not at Sanchez' level, and it would be ridiculous to move Sanchez (our best attacker), out of position to accommodate him.

Suarez is 31 and Messi is 30. They can’t go on forever. The purchases of Dembele, Coutinho and (hopefully) soon Griezmann are necessary.

We’ve also bought players like Umtiti, Mina and Semedo to strengthen the spine of our team. We’re after Arthur too.

Moving to another position other than the left isn't the same as moving him out of position.
 
I’d still love him here. It would create such a buzz but looks like that ship has sailed.

Could you just imagine the goal celebrations at the Emirates with him and Lingard scoring?
 
Would like to see AG/DC play together for another season. They have one more good year left in them before it all goes tits up & simeone, griezman, koke, gabi, Saul & godin leave or will be too old.

Keep the band together for one more year!
 
I don't think that these things mean much and I also don't claim to be a body language expert. However, I found the video of Griezmann getting uber friendly with the barca squad on reddit and thought I would share:

 
Think it is pretty clear he will end up at Barca, he wants titles and Barca will buy him for that price. The rumours started since Neymar moved away and they only got stronger over time.

I am in the same boat. I feel we won't be able to get him. I think that's just life you can't have them all. Besides, I think we need other areas of the team addressed.

I agree AG to Barca seems inevitable. He would improve our team no doubt though, and for that reason I would welcome him if he wanted to come to United. That said, there are other transfer priorities and its probably best we focus our efforts elsewhere.
