The problem was moving him from the centre to the left, even though he won the balon d'or in that position. He still won plenty at club and nation level.

How come this is stalling while Liverpool is buying players?
Has Fabinho had his medical?
No but it seems it's all but done.
Good question. I suppose they want him to be actually here to do a medical etc.and now he is over here with the Brazil squad.
At least we would be signing someone who actually got into the Brazil World Cup Squad.
Well it is true. It's not even June.
Of course. When is brazil coming in for the friendly?
How does this work? The exact same information is available for both players.
If Fabinho 'seems all but done', then so does Fred.
Di Marzio has said we agreed for 50m euros. Craig Norwood (virtually official confirmation) has followed Fred on Instagram. So Fred is 'all but done' as well.
I read somewhere that the signing will be done when brazil visit london. Utd have their office there where they signed jose.
Because they aren’t connected in any way?
Maybe it's not as far along as the media is suggesting, or maybe he was just an option and we've found out we can a better player and are stalling while we see if we can do that deal, kinda like the Morata/Lukaku situation alst summer.
Because we never get any instant gratification presents?
Because its not FM
We take no longer than other clubs, the only difference is you don’t obsess over other clubs movements to the same degree so things appear to go much slower. I bet every other top clubs forums are full of people making the same complaints.
Soon, ha? I will retire sooner!!! We haven't signed anyone yet!! We suck at it. Everyone is buying players except us, ffs. So angry right now. Come on Ed!!! Wum, cheer up
They came to London today.
made me sad now, was hoping for a reaction.No white text?
Whose everyone?
made me sad now, was hoping for a reaction.
Oops there's a bite
Yes!!!!!!
Can't wait for the endless Fabinho >>> Fred posts that'll plague us over this summer
Why? Only one of the two is going to the world cup.Can't wait for the endless Fabinho >>> Fred posts that'll plague over this summer
That puts any argument to bed.
Had to have some fun didn't we,plenty of naysayers hanging around the transfer threadYes!!!!!!
Because that's what we do here. We build up other teams' acquisitions like they're the second coming of Pele, while simultaneously taking a crap on our players.
That didn't go well
No it doesn’t. That’s like saying Giroud is better than Benzema.
Their performances on the pitch will put the arguments to bed not their reputation beforehand.
Sincerely hope that the pace of the PL will prove too much for Fabinho, although I doubt it.
IMO we are going to spend big on SMS or Bale, but not both. Also, I would't be surprised if we end up paying a lot for Toby (and Bale).
Because Fred is in the Brazilian squad for the World Cup and Fabinho isn't
Ligue 1 players generally do well in the premier league.
Why would you believe that? Us Caftard are nothing more than a bunch of losers on the internet.
It's folly to believe that we'd know about everything that's going on behind the scenes. It's perfectly possible that Liverpool have been working on the deal for months whereas we've only just started our formal negotiations for Fred. Or maybe not. Who knows?
There are only two things you can be certain of during the transfer window:
- Only some of what the media reports is true
- The media don't report everything.
We better get this done quickly or some people will go cray cray pretty soon.
God, I hope they don't announce Fekir soon, the Cafe will probably break!

Look at the Fabinho thread, people have already started, it's embarrassing.
I don't have an answer but I felt compelled to respond due to the sheer amount of replies your question recieved. Peer pressure and all that.
Hope this helps.
Thanks mate.
Hopefully we can tie this up before the weekend now that Fred is in the country. Just to settle things down a bit. It's nice to see the club making progress, and Jose typically likes to have his business done early.
