Loving it!

You're having a laugh mate.

Is it not a fact that Vidal confirmed our interest? Is it not a fact that Juve have not ruled out a sale? Yeah, zero facts indeed.
 
the most amazing thing about the Thiago thread is that the whole thing was over and locked by July 20th. Unlike Sneijder, Berbatov etc. which went on right til the end of the window.

6th top poster in that thread :cool:
 
Thread title made me think that I'll open the thread to find a ton of depressed muppets. I see everyone is very optimistic and discussing Vidal's wages :wenger:

£200,000 is fair if Rooney is on 300. I'm assuming that RvP is on 200 or more as well.

Nobody is going to be depressed and negative about this one. Not on my watch anyway.

We really need to petition for a thread title change to something along the lines of 'It's just a matter of time'

I'm not a fan of the negativity of this title. Ed' The Stud' Woodward is on it, so it's obviously a done deal.

Real Madrid will sign Vidal for £33m in less than two weeks.

Only they won't because they are stacked with quality there already.

I think Madrid's interest predated Kroos signing.
 
so no news today?, i think the hold up is that Evra didn't like his house, ;)
 
My source told me he's not coming today. However, he's not sure if he will come here or not at all. Basically he's telling me United has interest in Vidal and in the same time they don't know who Vidal is.

Not to mention all the ironic "how has this thread got so many posts?" posts.
 
I'm trying to get my source on mobile but he isnt answering. God knows what's happening, left him a sms to let mi know ASAP what's the situation with Vidal. Usually he's really dependable but this time..
 
Come on arturo, you've been on holiday for ages now you lazy bastard.
 
How we got there: Top 10 Post Types That Got Us to 10,000.

1) Pessimists: "He wont come here, he will go to Madrid."
2) Optimists: "Vidal is coming, its a done deal."
3) Thread commentators: "This thread is very silly."
4) Information hub: "Look at what I just saw in a newspaper or on Twitter. This will make everything much clearer."
5) Kiljoys: "How could this thread get so long without any actual information? Im far too sensible to post in here until I see something from Ogden - unless its to come in here and wag my finger at others."
6) Postcount checks: "Wow, we are very nearly at a big round number of posts / pages! Extraordinary."
7) Relevance Nazis: "GGGrrrr, things have gone off topic, I shall close the thread for a while or just be generally threatening so everyone respects my authorita."
8) Bargaining with God: "If he comes, I will do x, y or z, as an offering to fate."
9) Old gits: "In my day transfer muppet threads were much better than this [insert reference to Sneijder, Ronaldo, Thiago etc here]"
10) Thrill seekers: "Im bored, let's generate some momentum in here despite nothing actually happening, just for our own amusement."

I presume the above is a 3?

I need a breakdown of the 10k by each of the above categories.

You missed the bad-news-magnets. The ones who get easily embarrassed once 'news' comes in that we are baulking at the selling clubs valuation.

Otherwise, spot on. :lol:

5th! I never dreamt I'd be so high, this is a special moment. I've tried to gain true muppet status in previous summers, but this is the first time I've really made it!

I can only dream of that kind of status. My strategy is to try and make a bigger splash in less systemically important threads. I know I cant make a real difference in a thread like this, Im happy to just be in the squad tbh.
