Bruno Fernandes | Signed

[sammsky1]

I think Fred as the anchor would be more potent for attacking the bottom 10 teams. Just need a quality right winger on top of Bruno. Sancho and Bruno would really complete our attack

Sancho in place of James would enhance even more. But that won’t happen before summer if at all, and Pogba will have left by then.

Am hopping Pogna and Bruno will dramatically improve us into CL a qualification this term; hence making it easier to sign the likes of Sancho and Maddison in the summer.

 

[noelyman]

Weird penalty style. Don't want! To be fair it seems very effective. Oh go on then Ed we'll take him

 

[DarkRed]

Just copy paste:
* Sporting president Frederico Varandas and sports director Hugo Viana in London today to work on transfer.
* Sporting expect Fernandes bid as MUFC target a midfielder.

Why would they come to London to work on transfer if there was no bid? maybe it is some other club or this is just all BS?

 

[Judas]

Think the Portuguese press have taken us all for a ride once again

 

[Im red2]

We all already know that Woodward is quiet capable of messing this type of deal up, don't we? I bet Spurs will come into the mix if Ed does not get the deal done very soon.

 

[Red_Orchestra]

What's the asking price this time for Bruno?

 

[Ban]

Does he have a wife and did she like United Instagram already?

Which deals has Ed messed up in the past?

 

[ShinjiNinja26]

Will be extremely pissed off if this leads to nothing yet again, or even worse he moves elsewhere like Spurs.

 

[SamVimes]

Honest question, will he genuinely make a difference? I ask because if he was that good someone else would have bought him.

Don't hold your breath on anything happening with us but Spurs apparently beat West Ham for a loan of the other Fernandes. The same one we were rumored to be heavily interested in just last week.

 

[vanderpants]

It's easy to see what it going on here again, Ed is talking to agents to appease the fans so it looks like he is trying to sign players but then knowing it won't happen and the players agents whip up a transfer media storm so other clubs bid for him, happen with Spurs last year but it never happened and also Madrid were sniffing around him. Happens a lot and nearly always it's utd who get used.
Personally can't see it happening , we have been here before and it just feels a re run of last year

 

[Xaviboy]

He isn't going to spurs lads sure there only managing a loan deal for Gedson Fernandes from Benfica.

 

[Ian Reus]

It's easy to see what it going on here

Lend me your insight binoculars, mate. I can't see shit.

 

[SamVimes]

Every time a player is linked with us on social media the Club make money.

 

[kouroux]

Haha, I know, mate. I didnt want to mention you. I did it to prove a point of how far he/she is ahead of second place.

he/she really takes obsession and hatred to new heights

 

[Dr. Dwayne]

It's Saturday. Today and tomorrow are all about matches. It'll be cocks out again come Monday.

 

[ivaldo]

Let's hope he cries/wipes his eye again.

 

[Peyroteo]

Where are you boys? @Peyroteo @SportingCP96

50 to 60 million and I'd be alright with him going as he clearly deserves to be playing at a higher level instead of regularly having to save this shitshow of a team.

Still don't think he'll solve all the midfield problems you have at all and that even though he'll be a big upgrade on the likes of Lingard or Pereira you guys need a different profile of midfielder that has a different style. He'll be another offensive player that loves playing in transition and in my opinion you guys have enough of those already.

He'll do well and the fans will love how hard he works for the team but I think how well this works depends on what other players United sign to complement him in midfield.

As for us, we don't have much to play for as we're not winning the Europa League even if he stays so might aswell get used to playing without him for 6 months before the next season starts rather than having it affect the start of next season.

It's Saturday. Today and tomorrow are all about matches. It'll be cocks out again come Monday.

No chance he gets sold before the Benfica match next week. The president would need to get security 24/7 if he does that

 

[laughtersassassin]

We paid £90m for Pogba.

Cause he is a top player and was very young when we bought him. Hardly comparable to Maguire. Like how Rashford would cost anyone 100+ now except Pogba was even better than that.

Maguire is good too just not 80 mil good.

At least we will not Fred on corners anymore.

 

[ThinkTank@Cafe]

He was already bought here 6 hours ago. What happened?

 

[Paxi]

feck that. I'm never muppeting again.

 

[ash_86]

Simon Stone openly admitted we were talking to the agent. That's like the confirmation that talks did take place . Of course clubs might not agree but talks did take place unlike summer.

Reported in The Athletic as well, which is seem as a bit more credible these days. But it was Rio's tweet that I found interesting, either he was really bored or he knows something.

Think he did it as a fan more than anything. But s lot of reputable journos have come forward with the claim

 

[Judas]

Be even more disappointing if we’ve got so close to signing someone who could improve us and walked away.

 

[UnitedSofa]

Absolutely loving the meltdown in here.

Somehow posters on the CAF believe 100% negative rumours (and don't question them) ANY, literally ANY bad news about United is met with 100% convince and belief.

But will question the validity of any good news about United, it's hilarious!

It's like you WANT to be upset.

 

[Nicoseth]

Lots of negativity - not sure I understand. Did I miss something? Is it just cos it's quiet today? Games this weekend. discussions to be had, I'm sure there'll be more news in the next day or two.

 

[thomas porter]

Our transfer are always agonizingly slow. I hate the way Woodward & co conduct their negotiations.

yep, that's caf in a nutshell. Previously, it used to be very annoying but now I just find it funny.

 

[Tom Cato]

Honest question, will he genuinely make a difference? I ask because if he was that good someone else would have bought him.

Tottenham did try to buy him last summer but would not meet Sportings evaluation. They had a bid in the £50m range rejected. So at least Caf's golden child saw something in the player.

There are a lot of questionmarks, primarily the price tag of a player who's good in the Portugese league

 

[christinaa]

I agree 120%!
Why do we take ages to conclude a deal and always with the greatest of secrecy?
If we miss out on Bruno or he goes to another team Ed will have rendered us laughing stock.....especially with our current situation.

It’s beyond pathetic.

 

[Dve]

"Bruno Fernandes? I can’t talk about individuals that play for other clubs, but I’ve got to say I do have the backing,”

= yes, we are buying him

 

[Infestissumam]

why are people so negative?

Things going quiet at this stage is actually pretty normal, no? Talks between the clubs have been confirmed and at this point the club probably wants to hammer out a deal without too much noise. I wouldn't be shocked if things were quiet over the weekend before there's movement on Monday or so.

 

[Bratt]

He just scored.

 

[Ralph1386]

He just obtained and scored a penalty for Sporting.

Rio knows something But for me the guy with the credible gospel is Simon Stone. I'll believe anything he writes
