I fancy Barca tonight to be honest, they was all over and should of beat Bayern last time out but weren’t clinical enough.
 
Theyre gonna trash bayern now that you said this
They could trash bayern all they like but it won't matter unless inter choke against plazan.

It's dependent on inter losing their game so it's out of their hand.

But if Barca win tonight won’t it come down to if Bayern beat inter the last game? Barca and inter could end the group with 10 points so won’t it be GD?

Dream signing for ETH no doubt. I'd love to see him at Utd. But he seems very settled at barcelona and i think he will tough it out. Looking forward to watching him at world cup.

Head to head is what counts, which they've already lost against inter.

It's head to head not GD , inter has the advantage.

Yeah agreed, seems very unlikely we could land him, but I like dreaming about having the best midfield in the world, would rather try for him again in jan.
 
Barca really goes to some length to bully him into leaving, now they even exited the CL to play in the EL, where he didn't want to play. They probably make him start every game in his most hated competition, just brutal. :(
 
Overrated player, haven't shown anything yet to what Barca paid for him.

People shitting on Pogba for the price tag, but De Jong hasn't been any different.
 
I still think he’s overrated but the league is lucky Ten Hag hasn’t didn’t get him last summer.
 
That tosser didn't want to play Europa League football,after a summer of public emasculation and a dozen economic levers later, he's back to playing on Thursday nights for the 2nd straight season again :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
Time to put in a cheeky bid?

It's written in the stars Frenkie against his former team in the europa final.
 
I doubt this will sway him much

they are still much better placed to qualify again next season than we are
 
Why do some of you still want him? From all reports we did everything possible to sign him, Barca made it quite clear they were willing to get rid of him (not receive a bid too good to refuse, just get rid of), then Barca proceeded to treat him like shit and de Jong STILL refused to come to us.

Let him rot at Barca, ETH will find someone who actually wants to play for us, who will actually show love for the fans and club (e.g. Martinez and Antony)
 
At this stage I don’t want him.
The extra 5% that comes from “really” wanting to be somewhere and making it happen is so
Important.
I just don’t think we’ll ever get that from him if he does come. That opinion is based on what he has said publicly and his actions after he knew we were keen on him.
I’d prefer an Antony type who may be less talented but you know for sure will buy in fully to what is going on. Fergie would not have countenanced this type of attitude

Yup, and at this point it was de Jong or Casemiro (not both). Casemiro is showing his class in a position of need, so we can't really complain. Adding de Jong to this midfield would make us somewhat competitive going forward with City and their insane depth, but I agree I would rather take on someone younger and cheaper that can do 80% of what dJ does
