It's the narrative people have chosen, may as well accept it. Idiotic as it is.

I don't know what I find funnier, the "Sexy Fish" sign in the back or the random After 8s he's got there 
Taking some after eights home for his dad. Great son.

For me, it's the random blagging cnut who's turned up with a whole backpack full of shit for him to sign.I don't know what I find funnier, the "Sexy Fish" sign in the back or the random After 8s he's got there
It’s the censored name of a song by David Guetta featuring Akon. From like 2009.Sexy Fish

I think this will be a great signing. Feels good to have good CB choices again.
Exciting signing.
Why is he holding chocolate?
Sexy Fish is a great restaurant with a great food (definitely not cheap though). I’d like to think the After Eights box came when they gave some to him after finishing the main meal, liked them and asked what they were so they gave him the entire box.
For his dad.
Maybe a stupid question and maybe this has been discussed a lot as well, but why is there not any competition for his signature? Only us.
Yep. This is going to be the structure in my opinion.
He wanted to come here.
A horsechocker special, the joke and the laugh in the same post.
Because we're the only big club with urgent need of a top centre back who also have enough room in the wage bill (with Varane and Martial gone) to pay him?
It’s his birthday today, isn’t it? He seems to be holding a card. Presumably some cnut thought to themselves “Money no object, what can you buy for the man who has everything. But also it has to be available for less than £2 total from Lidl.”
But still, there was no talk at all about other clubs being interested.
Could be the reason of course, especially since we are famous for being prepared to spend a bit more than everybody else.
It's nothing to do with us paying more. Bayern want to cut their wage bill and prioritise other areas. De Ligt is a very saleable asset and is on very good money. We want him and have cleared a lot of dead money off of our own wage bill.
It's a good deal for all parties.
Because United is the biggest club in the world.
That are willing to pay his wage demand.

Its a restaurant. It's OK, expensive.
‘Fans’
They appear to be after dinner mints. Or in the de Ligt household, during dinner mints
Don't like his wife's coat at all.
Open minded about this signing but it's not a good start.

Great signing, an absolute top class CB. Now give him number 4.
They get scoffed before dinner mate.
I heard that De Ligt tore his ACL carrying to-go boxes of food from Wings restaurant.
Looks like a Chelsea fanHis dad looks familiar.
Scholes - great player. A turd on a stick pundit.
He says he only wanted United
He will be so fired up for the trip to Anfield by the jibes from Souness, like you say will also want to quieten Rio and Scholesy too.
People are so pathetic around celebrities.
PSG were apparently interested but the player told his agent to only negotiate with United.
With Barca and Madrid not really in a position to spend big on players currently, I was never really worried about him going somewhere else. Those are the only two clubs with a bigger pull than United in world football and thankfully they’re both broke right now
Not at all. Those 3 plus Maguire and Evans as other options. Much better than last season, especially if we don't have as many injuries this season.
