Only way we make it happen so here for it
Dont think we will do this. FDJ we will revisit next summer, as well as a top striker. A backup GK and a squad ST (if Ronaldo leaves) are my guesses for the rest of the window. So nothing too exciting.
Well Erik said we needed numbers in forward positions so there is hope of a striker. Surely seeing Martial's injury proneness will make his mind up to buy one before Thurs
I reckon he could still do a job!Surely we tell Ronaldo we terminate his deal or he sits on the bench all season. It seems his Chanpions League passion is more important than money
Agreed about FDJ. I think United are being quite shrewd with this. There is a possibility if Barca have a poor season which is possible given the sheer amount of players they bought in at once that they might need to let him go on the cheap just to keep them in the green. The only problem is we kinda need him now. But if you remember Dortmund wanted silly money for Sancho, a year later it was tens of millions cheaper.
Do you honestly believe we get another shot even if we get ourselves back into Champions League
Where did you get this from, would be so uncharacteristic of the glazers.
Yes, if we have CL.
Desperate hope from my POV
Alright, with Antony wrapped up, a GK and De Jong.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Hope people are right who think we will come back for him again next summer, personally can't help thinking it's now or never
The only way to keep this thread going is to have fate we will revisit next transfer window
Yep so true
Like the last few diehard fans waiting at the stage door for their artist to appear, it feels like we’re down to those who now live purely in blind hope. It’s over: he’s gone home: it isn’t happening.
And then; right when all hope had gone, when the lights we’re about to be turned out and it’s time to board the final train home..the door opens…and out he walks…contract in hand…majestic, ‘never in doubt’ he grins.

Yeah maybe, but Ben Jacobs would be the last one to know
This is dead ... but if we were to try for him one last time we should hear about it very soon considering that Antony has been wrapped up.
This deals been dead for weeks. We need a cm still
Yeah but our obsession with him is an issue
I mean I'm still all for signing De Jong, but since we more or less signed Antony, I'm starting to get sceptical where the money is going to come from
Can we stop quoting Ben Jacobs, he's utterly clueless.
He is but never the less as much as it kills me to say it.
FDJ to United is dead in the water

So was Antony
So was Antony
Antony wanted to come to united badly but Ajax were playing hardball.
Barca want to sell him but FDJ doesn't want to leave, completely different.
I, for one , still believe.
Nobody said that the Muppet life is easy.

Muppets last stand.
It ain't dead until he takes the pay cut or window closes. Simple as that. We remain an option for him.
Reported
Yes, exactly.
I could imagine us having one last try at this. With Casemiro and Antony on board, top 4 must look a lot more likely to FDJ. If he’s really hesitant because of no CL it would just be one year without and he would be definitely joining a team on the rise.
I reckon he's negotiating with Barca about a new deferral at this point. How those negotiations go in the next few days will determine what he decides to do. He will want a clear repayment plan and clear clauses regarding bonuses. If he doesn't get that, he might consider leaving.
It's a fact he does not want to leave Barca. He has a contract with them. This isn't going to turn into a Bale situation for him if he doesn't leave, he is good enough to get games and he knows it. He knows he doesn't have to leave if he doesn't want to. Barca are just chancing their luck to see if they can get him on lower wages. It's all talk from barca but at the end of the day if he stays barca know he has a contract.
It's dead in the water.
It's dead in the water.
Let's see how he does tonight.
Scores sn oggy & does a balotelli & reveals a red top that says “take me to manchester EtH”
I would then forgive him for dragging this out for so long.
Sadly, Antony sounds the death knell for this deal. Casemiro arguably put us close to not being able to pull it off, but this definitely does it. Transfer budgets aren’t unlimited
Just the calm before the storm.
We're going to slap down a take it or leave it bid 48 hours before the window shuts.
Nope. Only reason all this inane chasing made sense was him being the one to build our midfield/future around, etc. The only reason it still isn't 100% dead is the same rationale still applying.
Beyond Thursday? Feck him.
