Frenkie de Jong | The last muppeting lap

[Castia]

It’s amazing they create headlines from anything. When you read the article you see he’s been urged by the football guru, none other than Agbonlahor! And they also quote Sport from Spain.

There's been almost nothing positive regarding United for a while now. Even the English 'press' are starting to turn after being behind us for most of this deal.

This is absolutely dead

Am I the only person who before this saga, had never heard of the word ‘lever’ being used in relation to finances?

Agbonlahor hasn't said anything positive about United in his life to be fair.

Thanks.

Cool

Yes the mail quoting Agbonlahor quoting a Spanish source really is the English press turning against us.

Hang on, so the Mail quoting a Sport article and using the opinion of Agbonlahor, who de Jong won't ever listen to or probably barely knows even exists, equates to this transfer being absolutely dead?? Come on now.

I've seen nothing by the English media, outside of those quoting Sport or Spanish media, that even remotely suggests this is off.

Isn't this just Agbonlahor spouting off on talkSPORT? What does it have to do with the probability of this transfer?

 

[Real Name]

Cool

I know right.

 

[Brownie85]

Isn't this just Agbonlahor spouting off on talkSPORT? What does it have to do with the probability of this transfer?

Who knows. Maybe he's the voice of truth and reason now and we all need to listen to his greatness? Highly doubt it though

 

[Redcy]

Don't you know that Abonglahor is FDJ mentor and idol? He listens to everything he says, add in the fact that he is on Talksport and how could FDJ not take notice??

 

[DevilRed]

It’s a fact that the Caf used to have United players on the board. Now, i dont know

Maguire is defo on here.

 

[Brownie85]

It’s a fact that the Caf used to have United players on the board. Now, i dont know

I actually didn't know that. Do we know who they were?

Also didn't we used to have an MUTV presenter who posted on here sometimes as well?

 

[Plant0x84]

Am I the only person who before this saga, had never heard of the word ‘lever’ being used in relation to finances?

No, I’m with you. Barca love to be unique.

@Sultan, @golden_blunder i think you know who the players posting here were

Thanks for the update. Appreciate you popping in to let us know.

@Brownie85 @golden_blunder - Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, another ones fallen away…

 

[Sunny Jim]

Maguire is defo on here.

Huh? How do you know?

That could be the worst collection of sources ever.

 

[Chief123]

Am I the only person who before this saga, had never heard of the word ‘lever’ being used in relation to finances?

Agree. I’m guessing it comes from “leverage” in financial terms.

Cheers you saved me coming back to the thread, close the thread now admins..

Are these idiotic reports being leaked by Barca? Why would he want to join that plastic bunch of turds over us?

Apart from the fact we've agreed a fee and the news coming out is that Barca are trying to force him out and the press (without ' ' ) said that we're playing the patient game..

Other than that, dead AF.

 

[DevilRed]

Huh? How do you know?

Its a secret. shh

 

[golden_blunder]

Please do not drag our master Muppet down to his level. @Berbaclass is funny, mildly crazy and interesting these are not the traits of G. Neville.

That’s why I said imagine it, because our it would be funny that Neville is a muppet at heart

 

[DevilRed]

He wouldn't. End of story.

Just rubbish reports from shit sources.

 

[romufc]

Seems the least likely out of the three

Agree but its still an option. Barca pulling levers to spend but they still need to sort their wage bill out in line with La Liga requirements.

Lets see how it develops now.

 

[golden_blunder]

Cheers you saved me coming back to the thread, close the thread now admins..

Nothing is closing, the window is still open

 

[Brownie85]

Thanks for the update. Appreciate you popping in to let us know.

@Brownie85 @golden_blunder - Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, another ones fallen away…

Such a shame... those falling away now have held on for so long too

 

[UNITED ACADEMY]

I feel like he's taking the piss out of United for chasing someone who doesn't want to come. It would be different if one of his mates was the manager wouldn't it?

Ok then my heart is lying. Gary is bullshit as always.

 

[golden_blunder]

By the way, you don’t need to come to the thread, you can use the live tweet feed and just read the tweets.

Some are too week for the Fellowship of the Jong

 

[DevilRed]

Guys. This one is done.

It might take a while to sort out the contract between barca and FDJ, but he will be coming.

Theres going to come a point in time when barca need to register their players and the window will shut. They will come to a compromise.

Mitten and the lady reporter just 2 days ago man

 

[arthurka]

Right you did but it's really hard to imagine though.

It was joke based on one person saying the deal was dead.. maybe the race to 1000 is getting to us all

 

[Fanta Stick]

I somehow keep ending up back in here with no memory of clicking on the thread. What's happening? Help me.

This thread has its own gravitational pull.

I keep getting sucked into the vortex of relentless positivity (delusion?) surrounding FDJ deal.

Stop thrashing around and just surrender to it.

 

[golden_blunder]

Fair enough

 

[MUFC OK]

The take away from this transfer window, the De Jong saga included should be that the Glazers are going to get away with a £53m net spend.

 

[Berbaclass]

Tic tac

 

[glazed]

This saga is beginning to feel like an embarrassment for the club.
