The scary part is the top two things are going to happen whereas we are ending up without either Sancho/Grealish
Dear God no...
Really would be absurdly on the nose for 2020
Can this transfer window get any worse?
Scenes when Man City signs Messi and MUFC go from Sancho to some random Bournemouth winger for 40 million
That should be Ed's final act at this club and he should gracefully resign before he rightfully gets hounded out by the hate mob
we sign no one, sell no one, give new contracts to deadwood and City get Messi. I don't think i'd be able to watch this next season if all those horrors played out.
Dear God no...

wtf"Messi wants to play for Manchester City. He sees the exit from Barcelona as something that hurts in the soul, but the end of a cycle."
That's what counts
If he does leave and it's not to us, just anywhere but the premiership!
Holy moly.

& some wouldn't mind him playing for City?! He'd kill us all.
Jesus christ if Utd don't respond to something this enormous I could see myself falling out of love with Utd and never thought I would ever say that
It's sad how kids now will grow up thinking we are the small club in Manchester.
He won't go to City.
Gracias. So was this Marcelo dude the guy that broke news on Neymar leaving?
Yeah our reputation as a big club will be tarnished forever
I hate to break it to you but Manchester's City support around the world is only growing.
Success brings reputation, specially among the new generation of football fans, which will quickly outnumber the old guard.
Those kids are the ones buying the lion's share of merchandise and hypeing their favourite clubs in social media, which, needless to say, is a big deal.
Honestly, outside of England, it's more likely the new generation of football fans thinks of MUFC as a thing for boomers.
Yeah we are probably seen as old hat and has beens in the eyes of a new generation of fans around the world
Agreed, the club I know and love cannot lack this much ambition, can it?
messi to city? Bring it on! Maguire will rough him up!
Yes, I remember when I saw the news on ESPN Brasil first hand. He nailed that Neymar was going to PSG, no ifs and buts like Romano and co.
First one to report Messi wanted to leave too, apparent Barca tier 1 unfortunately
Yes, but can he do it on a wet winter night in Stoke? or some other cliché nonsense, Clive
For sure. Used to see a couple Yaya Toure shirts for every 10-15 Rooney's in New York, can't say that ratio has held up.
Good god this really is our version of the infamous Annus Horriblis
What makes you say that?
If City end up getting Messi and we stumble about with Sancho and then don't sign him, I wouldn't even know what to think.
Those Abu Dhabi folks were dead serious about this project from the get go. They’ve invested in infrastructure and set up a proper institution behind the scenes. Making money off the operation is secondary - building the club through winning is the main goal. Whereas United under Glazer ownership is primarily advertising space. Our brand remains romantic and strong but it is not getting stronger. Liverpool’s lasting popularity even in their decades in the wilderness shows that the brand can survive yet - but let’s not forget that we live in a totally different media environment now, with vastly more content and competition for attention. Perhaps by the time our brand slips globally and cash flow growth starts to plateau the Glazers will sell the club ...
I think he will go to City. Messi doesn’t seem like an adventurous type. Unlike Ronaldo who has no qualms about challenging himself in the biggest stages and being clutch. City is the perfect home away from home - his Barcelona people are there and he can play for a couple of seasons with Pep before both leave.
Yes!That's what counts
If he does leave and it's not to us, just anywhere but the premiership!
As if Messi has never been clutch. Basically did everything he wanted to do at club level by age 25.
If Liverpool signs Thiago too I am not going to watch next season. Can't bear the feeling of dread heading into games against our rivals, praying to not get thumped or humiliated. Even fecking Leeds signed Rodrigo, while our board is still busy watching porn in the boardroom not knowing what day it is outside.
Here’s a terrible thought. Messi wants to leave on a free transfer- Barcelona are going to say no your release clause is now active and is $700m. But Messi wants to go and Barca need to rebuild so they may agree to let him leave to whatever club he chooses for a fee of say $70m.
But here’s the horrible bit, Barca then have that $70m plus $50 mil saved in wages on top of the funds they were already going to spend and have a massive hole to fill. Hate to say it but it would make sense for them to make a move for Sancho

Thats a bit of an exaggeration.
Yeah I am feeling the same right now
I don't think it is but respect your opinion,this club is an absolute laughing stock right now and won't change under those yankee scumbags
I don't even think we are stumbling about with Sancho. It genuinely just seems like there's no movement or activity at all at the moment. It's a bit depressing

Could quite easily ignore Utd results next season if this crap continues on until the end of the window
Another write-of a off season would just be awful.
Ok man we get it.
If we don't get at least Sancho you'll loose a passion for the club.
Seasons. Plural.
