After watching that.... we should feck with Barcelona a bit and retract our offer saying we have some promising youth prospects instead. La Porta would crap his pants.
This is so done. This Barca cnuts are suddenly finding enough money to buy a bloke from Leeds. Frenkie should be kicking up a fuss and demanding them to pay his owed wages instead of spending it on a transfer
27 minutes since a post in here.....what the feck is going on?!! 
Hope he's feckin gutted that he's missed out on the opportunity to lift the Bangkok Century Cup.

Let me summarise the missing posts.
It's off - we've been dim again, Barcelona messing us about, woe is us.
It's definitely on - just a game of smoke and mirrors.
Just x those two posts 100s of times if ever you think you're missing out.
Most probably walked away.27 minutes since a post in here.....what the feck is going on?!!

Done deal soon. I have no doubt what so ever.
The deal seems imminent, but it's seemed imminent for several weeks. Soon we need to decide when it will be time to panic if the deal has not been, shall we say, consummated.
Wonder if he feels he should have just let go the 17m Barca owe him and would rather have the Bangkok Century Cup.
With Barca suddenly wrapping up Raphinha and looking closely at Lewa then given the sequence of events I’d say this looks more likely than it has done so far.
Arnold, the sign off man, being present in Barca yesterday was the key.
Fully expect some movement in the coming hours/days.

He is taken a long time to get off that exit ramp, is he stuck in a magic roundabout at the top or something?

Correct, it's inaccurately translated by ManagingBarca. Here's the Tweet to the article.
Here's the original quote in Spanish from the article:
Which translates to:
After that sentence was this key statement:
This article basically adds favourable context to the recent report from Oriol Domènech to appease the Barcelona fans and socios. The gist of it is that Barcelona want to keep de Jong for sporting reasons and see him as a key player, but they are compelled to let him go due to their financial issues. This way, at least Barcelona can look like they've done everything they can to keep de Jong but had no other choice except to make him leave for the good of the club.
Thanks, recent reports from reliable Barca sources (Oriol Domènech) state that both clubs reached an agreement, so it would be weird if another reporter from Mundo contradicted it by saying "Barca deemed United's offer insufficient"
Imagine the board watching the Liverpool game and thinking, we don't need anymore signings. We have the right players. Then there's idiots here saying walk away from this deal.
Hats off for pulling this deal. And extra points dealing with Barcelona.
We offer you... Aye, that's grand, can you just pay him also the wages that we own him. Ridiculous.

Barcelona are signing the second lever next week apparently
And I read that Barcelona want to sell De Jong after that’s signed (can’t remember the details but it will look better on their accounts apparently to sell after that lever is signed)

De Jong is the only player who reminds me of Cruijff, he is fast, not to tackle reads the game and can play in the defence, midfield, he is the engine of each time, set the overdrive to a squad at his moment and back...with him, Donny and Eriksen...this midfield will be fantastic....
Don't have to imagine, we've done it before
Not disagreeing but not sure how that'd work unless their year end was between the second lever and the sale
Anyone know what are we offering in wages and how does it compare to his current wage packet at Barcelona (deferral aside)?
If the choice is 50% paycut at Barca or 50% paycut at United, I can see the conundrum.
If the choice is 50% paycut at Barca or earn the same (or more) at United, then it's a no-brainer.
17 million comes and goes but the Bangkok Century Cup is forever!
He missed out, hope he learned his lesson.
That's the point I was making. We'd be absolutely fecking insane to start with that midfield. I couldn't care less what we pay to sign this guy. Wanted him from Ajax when speculation came about he was off to Barcelona. They have paid a fair price for their own shortcomings.
Arnold and Murtough in Barcelona
24hrs later, Romano reporting Barcelona have reached an agreement for €68m for Raphina
I'm going to declare this to mean its 100% happening

The problem with this vid is he gave a poor pass away and surrendered possession after the run. It becomes meaningless.
I seriously doubt anyone argues that we should walk away from the deal on account on the strength of the squad. I'm still in the pro-FDJ-deal camp, but if it turns out to be the case that the player really, really does not want to come to United it wouldn't be irrational to walk away from the deal and move on to other targets.
No it's not. De Jong isn't gonna piss away his career by sitting in the stands because Barca is his dream club.
The only people that don't piss off when the club wants them to is deadwood happy to ride out a fat contract.
Not even in the squad eh?
Wouldn’t read too much into it. He only started training yesterday so it’d be a bit of a surprise if he was in the team.
I didn't think the pass was that bad despite it being intercepted. He was trying to thread the ball between the two defenders to put Elanga through.
Mi entardis de suentres un poco mandatis muchos dineros un noches de Frenkie de Jong hablas grande salaris payer de Manchester United por la patatas con vuelta mas retardas y Barca ochos caramba malditos muppets.
Feck that, Barca have €80m riding on the deal, no way he was gonna play even with 2 months pre season under his belt.
Dominos lined up.
Are they the usual Barca squad numbers? If so then could be meaningful that they've given 21 to Casado if that's FdJ's number.
