Hope is such a masochistic thing! we aint buying anyone in January. Stop doing it to yourselves.

I’ll take the no Haaland in that case. Can’t take a player serious who would rather play for United with Ole than without him.
So we actually have people that don't want him because Ole being at the club is a positive thing for him? Just... wow.

Sometimes you do wonder how these people come up with their logicSo we actually have people that don't want him because Ole being at the club is a positive thing for him? Just... wow.
Don't take some of the stuff posted over here too seriously Just learn to ignore some posters - you can do that with a click or else just laugh reading their postsSo we actually have people that don't want him because Ole being at the club is a positive thing for him? Just... wow.
I agree that his price may go up during the summer, if he keeps on scoring a similar amount of goals which I expect him to do. So I think our best chance of getting him is January. Also in the summer there may be more competition for him as some teams may want to see if he can keep this form up for a whole season before deciding he is worth "x" amount of millions.Not disagreeing with you mate. In fact, I believe I said that very thing.
The difference in the Haaland case is that the price may go UP, not down, in the summer window. Let’s say he keeps banging in goals and hits 55 for the season, wins Golden Boot (though not sure if Austrian league can win Golden Boot). There is a chance that the fee rises to 100-120m. In that case, getting him for 80m in January would have been a bargain.
Saw this very thing happen with João Felix this last year. Was on the radar of some clubs before the ‘19 January window, then IMPROVED in the second half and ended up going for 126m....
Some of them may still want Ole sacked even if he gets us Haaland.All you people who want OGS sacked - you do know that will reduce our chance of signing Haaland to just about 0% - right ?
I really wouldn’t spend too long wondering.Anyone know if he is good in the air?
I wonder if we might make a move for Mitrovic in Jan, at least then we might get a head on some of James’s crosses.
Mental isn't it. But not surprising.So we actually have people that don't want him because Ole being at the club is a positive thing for him? Just... wow.
Hardly. Yet some act like they're swarming the place, especially famous Jose acolytes.Do these Van Gaal/Mourinho/Solskjær die hards actually exist? I swear I must be oblivious to them. I couldn’t name a single poster who falls into either camp.
We're finding the summer windows difficult, nevermind the January one. But there is players that could be signed in January that I deem would be the right fit. But not sure Ole would, because it seems like he's fixated on players that wouldn't be available in January. So unless he broadens his horizons, then we'll end up signing no one and the fans will point to Woodward not backing the manager.
If you were him, would you sign for us at the moment?
Yes. A fair chance of playing every game at one of the biggest clubs in football. If it works out, he will have made an indestructible legacy at one of the historic clubs. Plus, the manager knows him through and through and knows his quality, going as far back as Molde.If you were him, would you sign for us at the moment?

Yes....as long as I don t read most of the posts over hereIf you were him, would you sign for us at the moment?
Much appreciated.Here's a pen.
Now sign, dammit.Much appreciated.
Me? Without a shadow of a doubt. I’m a United fan and it would be a dream to play for United. Alas, I’m not a professional footballer.If you were him, would you sign for us at the moment?
He’s probably still not fit enough for 90 minutes.He's on the bench. I'm sure he's already recovered from his injury because he cane from the bench in the champions league. So anybody knows why he isn't starting?

Did I say a manager wouldn't want to strengthen his team? But when a manager is fixated on certain players at clubs who are asking for extortionate prices it's best to broaden your horizon.Don’t be silly.
As if any manager wouldn’t want additions to improve the squad/team.
Where have you been ? Ever heard of Ed Woodward and his puppeteers.
Some of them may still want Ole sacked even if he gets us Haaland.

Going from the austrian league to Man United? Probably one of his idols as his manager? Chance to be the striker at one of the biggest clubs in the world and one of the most historical clubs? Chance to be the one that revives the club? Not even mentioning the money.If you were him, would you sign for us at the moment?

Such a dumb narrative when people say this. Man United will always be an attractive club to join.
Depends what you mean by recently, it’s not THAT long ago.Not dumb at all. What big players have joined us recently?

Pogba, Ibra, Sanchez, Lukaku for a few in recent years. Haaland isn't that. Haaland is a young player with big potential like Martial was, which we've had no problems signing.Not dumb at all. What big players have joined us recently?
It would depend on what other clubs offer, sadly here has become some sort of graveyard for top players. Very few have been able to develop or keep their level after joining us in the latter years.
It's a good thing I do so many drugs.
I think you are spot on. We have had some bad years and the negative focus has grown strong.
I feel really good about the progress now. We have a really good chance to bounce back. Under LvG and Mourinho it felt more like a quick fix.
The part where you feel deflated I can relate to as well. It’s hard to swallow some of the games, but the good games and periods tell me that we are on track.
What's the relevance of this comment? He's not in his latter years and he'd be joining a youthful squad and has plenty of development to do himself.
