Unfortunately, I fear the symmetry of this little lot

Rooney, Suarez, Bale all "Injured" (all off imminently)
Fabregas, Ronaldo, all playing on their club's tours (going nowhere)
 
Has anyone mentioned that this could possibly be a smokescreen for Fellaini/Osman?

Makes sense IMO. Going for the "atleast we tried" route.

Posts like this make my blood boil. If the coach and CEO care about "trying" to appease the fans, they wouldn't be where they are.

Osman? Ho ho, because he's a poor player, and he used to play under Moyes...I get it.

Good joke friend...any more new and original stuff?

Since everyone seems to be doing it...

Yes. You in the post directly before this one.

If we get Fellani & Osman, and Fletcher gets back playing it'd be like having a new signing.

Perspective!
 
I don't remember so any protestations for Thiago. Anyone still optimistic?
 
No different than what United said about Ronaldo up until his exit and what we've said about Rooney this summer.
 
Moyes expects telephone to be connected next week at latest


Wednesday 07 August 2013 16:21


David Moyes has spoken bullishly about adding to Manchester United’s squad before the end of the transfer window, insisting that a number of deals will be completed imminently, as soon as his office phone is installed.
Mooted bids for Thiago Alcantara, Cesc Fabregas and Leighton Baines have all failed to materialise, leading several pundits to surmise that Moyes’s inability to make voice contact with potential targets may be hampering his quest for signings.
“Moysie [David Moyes] moved his stuff into the manager’s office six weeks ago, and it’s taken a bit of time to get everything up and running,” explained a Manchester United insider.
“We’ve got the wall-mounted telly linked up to the DVD player, and we just finished tooling up the espresso machine, which took ages. I suppose nobody thought a phone was a priority.”
“Still, we’ve got him on the staff intranet, so at least there’s no chance of him missing after-work drinks or not signing someone’s birthday card.”

Moyes - will return your call later this week. Or next week. Or September.
Moyes’s attempts to make contact with Barcelona with a view to buying Alcantara or Fabregas were conducted by handwritten letter, which the ex-Everton admits is not the most efficient way of negotiating a move.
“We sent two letters to Barça, but all we got back was a signed photo of Lionel Messi. It’s a start, but with the season about to start, we need more than that. Phil Neville follows Cesc on Twitter, which might be a good way to test the water. But the guys have assured me that we’ll have the phones up and running in no time. Certainly before the Community Shield, or at a pinch, just after. The end of next week at the very latest.
Moyes’s problem is compounded by the fact that Manchester United headquarters is notoriously a mobile black spot.
“I can almost never get more than one bar,” he told FourFourTwo, and when I do get through to someone and introduce myself as the Manchester United manager, they think it’s some joker doing a bad Alex Ferguson impression.”
“On the plus side”, Moyes continued, “Wayne Rooney’s not been able to call me to ask for a transfer. I told him he had to put it in writing, so, yeah, he’ll be staying.”

Even if this was true, we would've bought Fellaini in June to get him in the team before preseason so he can get familiar with the squad and then pursued Fabregas after that. If this was solely a ploy to appease fans, wouldn't it be much better to say at least we got Fellaini, rather than instead of Fabregas we end up with Fellaini?

Marvellous banter Eddie, I am bereft of ribs. Now perhaps if we could dally with the truth for a while?

Where did the story about Fabregas doing a press conference tomorrow emanate from? Is it definitely happening?

Surely, if he is to do a press conference, he's committed to them. They wouldn't put a player in front of the press if he was off/undecided.
