I agree with the first point, but Liverpool just had Minamino fly in and sign
Erling Haaland / signs for Dortmund

Yes. If Liverpool or United come calling for a Norwegian player, it's different. The PL has more clout to Norwegians than the Bundesliga.
Where have you been!
Can someone fill me in, what's happening?
Also are Kermit gifs allowed?

Same as Minawhatever. To get it sorted for Jan 1st. Have my doubts though
I thought it was 20?
Only in the summer when the mods aren't around. Wouldn't risk it right now.
What's that aboutFfs
Uh, no, you can't. Since it's specifically regarding the 'not through me' part.
Uh, no. This brief exchange started from a post where I say he could be telling the truth in every single 'got nothin' to do with me' response he gave at the presser and it doesn't necessarily conflict with Halaand coming just to visit/tour the club.
Martial drops deep to help in the build-up given that our midfielders are not really good on the ball or at passing between the lines and our no. 10 is trying to hide and our fullbacks can't attack. James is rarely able to put in those crosses against a balanced defense and similar to Rashford dependent on space to be efficient. Getting a poacher in will not make us better in counter-attacking situations nor improve our chance creations in non-transition situations... The only way I see this strengthening us is if Martial is played deeper, but then again we will have some major issues when not on the ball...
I don't think Martial playing deeper is going to help anything at all, but this isn't the thread for that.
Wait, Haaland wasn't on the plane?
Somewhere Martial is praying Haaland is not in fact coming.
Trying not to get sucked in but it looks like it's happening. Would be great to get this done early with minimal fuss.

I don't know why anyone would have expected him to be on a plane that wasn't private?! Surely at this point he'd not be slumming it with members of the public.

Did you miss the part where it turned out he wasn't on the plane and the thread let out a collective sigh.
Actually crossed my mind to ask that earlier. I'd bet a hefty sum that someone out there has stats on how many of our signings flew in by private/commercial and another person out there has those stats for all major clubs.
Can someone who saw the presser confirm. Did Ole explicitly confirm Haaland was coming to Manchester?
Just watched the press conference and Ole looked very upbeat before it started. Grinning like a cat that got the cream he was. Looked like he was telling porkies too about not knowing about Haaland coming, but then went on to say that he knows the lad, and his friends (his son is around the same age no, and could be buddies?) and that they are going on a Christmas holiday. He did mention a few times about nothing being set in stone yet, with regards to other transfers, which seemed to be an odd turn of phrase to me...He couldve just trotted out the usual nothing to report, There is something going on I reckon, but he's just here to have a look round and see if Martial is up to much in training before he steals his place!
Oh and for the haters.....he did say it's like having 4 new players in the team with the injured players almost ready!

I am fully erect rn
No photos of him at Manchester Airport then? Would have thought something would have surfaced by now.
Just seen him at Altrincham Travelodge.
Have you guys seen Simon Peach instastory? He just posted a cartoon-like Haaland near the Carrington signboard.
First Ole says he doesn't know where Haaland is going. Then he says he knows him and his family etc and he is just going somewhere via Manchester. Liar liar! Can body language experts fill me in about Ole's behaviour in press conference while answering 'them questions'?
Maybe he was on the plane dressed as 78 year old man with a mask like Tom Cruise had in MI movie?!
Noone noticed him, as he passed next to press people shaking and relaying on kane. Not Harry.
I will stop now, promise.
I just texted a friend of mine who works at Sola. He should be pretty easy to spot imo.
I can’t help it, I love muppet season
Still more realistic than me. I'm choosing to believe the Scott Harrington guy is a deep cover 00 agent assigned with Halaand's security while in transit.
Ole knows.
He would have denied interest if he thought this deal wasn’t happening.

Salzburg don't have any fixtures until February. There's no real reason for him to be there right now as a lot of the players and staff have gone for a break. I imagine this is just a trip back to see his family in Leeds and nothing more.
That's better. Lets get bodies on the ground.I just texted a friend of mine who works at Sola. He should be pretty easy to spot imo.

Sounds plausible enough to me. Off to watch a Haaland compilation vid on youtube while listening to a bit of Marvin Gaye music.
