David De Gea

Well he's not wrong. He's potentially better than Buffon

There is no way anyone can make those kind of definitve statements. Just because some player started playing from younger age doesn't mean he has more potential than arguably GOAT keeper.
 
Yeah that's the best news of the summer so far. I really, really hope Donnaruma goes to Real. Means we have Big Dave for the foreseeable future. Captain Dave anyone?
 
I hope he stays, one of our world class players.
we have other players who are good but he is the only one in our team that is in the top 2-3 for his position no questions.
 
Now that we've fecked off Madrid, fecked off Morata and (hopefully) won't be going in for any more of their players, can we presume Big Dave will definitely be staying now?

When persuing Morata, I was always expecting Madrid to let the deal get almost done and then at the last second refuse to clear it until we agreed to sell DDG. Would have been typical scum behaviour from them
 
All window the general consensus was that De Gea wasn't going anywhere. It was only shitty tabloids and the even worse Don Balon who kept trying to peddle it.

Madrid's mouthpieces would have been all over it for weeks if it was on. In reality, Marca and AS said over a month ago that Madrid wouldn't be trying to sign him.

Thankfully since then it's barely got a mention, apart from the gutter articles I just referred to.

De Gea was going nowhere reguardless, they were just haggling for 90 m euros and we pulled out. Even if they demanded de gea they would have to shell extra 30 m euros plus morata.
 
It's all hot air from Real, David is settled in Manchester I dare say & grew up (from age 13) playing for the other side of Madrid, so i doubt he's exactly dying for a transfer there.

There's no air left. It seems almost obvious Madrid have given up.
 
Given how they fleeced us for Morata, they can offer us 100m or feck off then.

Don't forget they would never have given us the deal they gave Bayern for James. They would have asked £80m.

The article is quite funny, Madrid were apparently livid that we didn't offer what they wanted, thinking Morata was our only possible option. Now they're worried they may not be able to offload him, cnuts.
 
Madrid will bE trianing on the pitch beside us at UCLA for the next few weeks. That wont be awkwaed at all
 
Don't sell him to them for any price.
 
No desire to go from David yet, all hype from Real.

He did grow up playing for their city rivals too, he may full-on hate Real :D
 
McDonnell of the Mirror says that Madrid may try for De Gea again: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/manchester-united-real-madrid-row-10786461
This is consistent with what Jackson of the Guardian has been saying all summer (and De Brun recently).
Total BS

He has told Real do one, both clubs say... one, he is not for sale and two, we are not interested in DDG. He is in the USA with the team why would he be there if he wanted out? He never played summer 2015 untill Real threw him back. Like who would risk their big move diving round a goal on preseason maybe picking up a knock. This is just lazy jurnos who have been proved wrong trying to justify a story they keep getting wrong

But funnily enough Courtois to real has actual legs. He’s been to Madrid his representives have been seen with Real club officals and he has said if real come in he'd have to think about it. Also the PSG keeper is in London right now, well today at least and it sure as hell aint to meet with united who are not in the market of a third keeper after trimming down the keepers on the books already.

The london media mafia strike again
