As Sults said, Gomes is also available.
This. Nothing to do with anything else other than money. This is why Mendes is who he is.
Both Sid Lowe and Ballague are convinced this is a stalling tactic by De Gea due to him changing agents. Calm down muppets.
Balague's opinion doesn't have a lot of weight for me but Sid Lowe usually seems to know stuff.
moved back to muppet playground until its actually official
Yeah it's all to confusing at the moment.
You ol' plonker you. Where in the good god's name did I say we not going sign him? All I said is keep your pants zipped up until we do so. Like I said, I'd be the first to be excited when the deal is sealed, at this moment in time it is not my friend.Just heard Sid Lowe explaining it, it's pretty straightforward actually.
De Gea's involvement with his current agent runs out at the end of the month and the deal with United has already been done by his new agent / team.
His lawyer issued a statement last night saying that no deal has been done as it can't be seen to have been done before he parts company with his current agent.
One thing is for sure - it would be a hell of a surprise if he didn't end up playing for us now.
Ah, that explains it a bit better but still waiting for the official signing myself
Ballague has DDG in his La Liga team if the year, not too shabby for a 20 year old goalkeeper in Casillas'/Valdes' shadow.
Gomes 
Fergie wouldn't have said what he did on Tuesday if this wasn't a done deal.
I'm inclined to agree however I never get excited until it's announced officially.
I'm not sure what there is be so excited about in this case. Whoever was purchased there is no improvement to the team.
Longer term, yes.
Longer term, yes.
Seeing as we're talking about the squad that starts next season, I'd say no matter who we purchase it will be an improvement!
We also appear to have landed our first choice.
You don't think David De Gea would be an improvement over Anders Lindegaard and Ben Amos?
I'd love to see him stay. It looks as though his mind is made up, though.
I think VDS'll be around to hold De Gea's hand. Based on nothing but a vague hunch/hope.
Even me, Pogue?
No wonder he pulled a stunner with a finger that long
fecking fanny destroyers those fingers!!
Them's goal-keeping hands.
Got a pair myself, all the way down there at the end of my arms.

It's a shame we had to sacrifice one player like Hargo to be the guinea pig but it seems all of our testing on Hargo have in the end been worthwhile. We plan to remove Vds brain and implant it into De Gea and he well from then on be known as Edwin van De Gea.
Our first test was also a success we implanted a donkeys face and brain onto Tevez and nobody noticed.

Very carefully worded statement.
A deal may not have been "signed" but it's probably been agreed.

The deals done. I don't know what Atletico are thinking but it was similar to what Benfica was saying about Di Maria when Madrid claimed they signed him and we all know what happened in the end.
It is easy, it's done. Boy just doesn't want distractions before the U21 tournament.
I just don't see why it would be a distraction. Surely by acknowledging the deal with utd he would end the speculation thus ending the "distraction".
But what did Fergie say? that de gea resembles vds in many ways. thats all, agreed it wouldve been very cruel from him, but he loves torturing transfer muppets. lets wait for.the official statement.
He cant say its done because otherwise his current agent will demand money from the deal something Ballague made a point of saying on Tuesday night, the fact is Sir alex has and would never comment on a player the way he did if the deal wasnt complete.
Stop panicking hes ours.
Stop panicking hes ours.
No, Sir alex said "hes an outstanding replacement for Edwin Van Der sar"
I hope Eric Steele has had a look at you.
With regard to that photos...any of our fingers would like fanny destroyers beside midget Agueros kid hands!
He looks 12 here. Jesus!
