Harry's source at United should really clue United in on what Frenkie wants 
*clipped the link because I still can't post media*
Precisely! Sometimes I wonder if United just feed other teams into the mix to make it seem like we still have a lot of pulling power. Granted, most of those transfers in the end up being high prices and even higher wages but still.
Shambolic.
Kaye Adams is an anagram of ‘A Yaks Edam’. Edam is Dutch. It’s a sign, I’m sold. This is on!
So according to ETH is FDJ or no one.
Season starts tonight and we're not really any closer with this one.
Heigh-ho, heigh-no,
It's Scott & Fred we go.
*whistle as I cry*

Again. If true, we’ll get a brief soon enough
No shit sherlock
It's a massive shame, he would have made a massive difference to us. Hopefully we go for the right player, not neves please Utd if you're listening
Embarrassing is often overused on here but it is probably the most apt description of all parties in this 'saga'.
Lock her up lads. Dead in the water.
I wonder where he got that information from. Wouldn't happen to be based on Harry's info would it
I never understood that logic. What will we do next year, try to buy him again? It worked with Sancho because no one else wanted him and he only wanted to come back to Manchester.
The deal's gone cold I'm wondering why -
Are we melting down again?
That could be the start of the briefs. Let’s see what happens in next few hours.
If true, it can only mean that the player has definitively rejected United. Up to Chelsea to see if they can work out a deal with Barca/De Jong, but we are ruled out.
Let's wait and see, because if the player has genuinely said 'no' to us, you'd expect us to get our side of the story out there pretty quickly to try to mitigate the inevitable blowback from wasting 13 weeks of the window.
Its a shock because it's unexpected....
I think I can start panicking now
Seems like it. I'm betting this tweet is based off Redknapps interview before. If it really isn't, then I expect the club to brief soon
There is no meltdown when you've accepted he actually isn't coming.
Looks like it's over now.
Oh well lets sign Ziyech
Will be glorious when he joins us. I’ll say it again, he’s not going to Chelsea you daft cnuts
The inevitable statement of spin will be something to behold. I'm going to the game on Sunday, was hoping this one was done and dusted. I've got a feeeling he will fastrak Iqbal to the squad now, and we'll end up either over-spending on Antony or under-spending on Ziyech (who at best is a poor man's nani)
Your tagline means you can't call anyone that
How do you figure? Because of one tweet?
Quiet peasant
Which one? There have been loads.
Can we upgrade embarrassing to humiliating in the poll?
When this is all said and done, and FDJ leads us out of the tunnel onto the pitch, can we get a postmortem assessment of this entire Farcelona transfer saga? A summary of which pundits were bluffing the whole time, the false suitors, the fake ITK press leaks, and ultimately revealing what the player involved really wanted the whole time, please.
Is Hirst not top-tier though in terms of reliability? And I'm skeptical that he'd be using Harry Redknapp as a source
This thread reminds me of that old Lemmings game from the 90s.
To make matters even worse didn't he hint that it's FdJ or no one?
I didn't think it could get this bad. To chase a midfielder for 3 months and fail is unforgivable but to then not have backup options? you have to laugh.

The one from Hirst is the only one I've seen and that looks like it's based from Harry's interview quote I'd imagineWhich one? There have been loads.
If it’s either Chelsea or Barca, we need to hope he stays at Barca and we get him next season when we’re champions
nice
Where has Hirst said this by the way? I can’t see an article or a tweet from him
