Here is another big talent we are going to lose if reports are true.
We're selling him already? He's only just got here, for feck sake.
He's not going to PSG. His agent on the previous page said there is no agreement to sell him at this point.
I'm really not surprised if we're not getting him. Apart from SAFs interview 'coincidentally' just before the Glazer IPO announcement there hasn't really been anything substantial to say we're interested. His agent seems like a prick so nothing he has said is reliable, and the rest has been 'sources', conveniently providing ITK info just before the weekend papers come out each week. Add that to the fact that in recent years, this transfer goes against everything we have been doing RE recruiting players - high price, high profile youngster - it's pretty unlikely tbf.
So there's been nothing substantial other than Sao Paulos board, coach and the players agent saying we're the only team they've spoke to who have put in an offer. All of which they said before and after Ferguson mentioned him in the interview which had feck all to do with the ipo.
Na mate. Fergie put in a fake bid for Lucas with the IPO in mind. If SP actually accepted the bid he would have shit himself and backed out immediately.
Careful I got slaughtered for suggesting this in another thread. It was unlike SAF to publicly announce our targets especially if we're nowhere close to signing them, so one can only wonder.
What a load of bollocksNa mate. Fergie put in a fake bid for Lucas with the IPO in mind. If SP actually accepted the bid he would have shit himself and backed out immediately.

Are you surprised you got slaughtered? Did Sir Alex go to the press then or did the press go to him? IF he'd have said, we're still after one or two players would it have made any difference at all? You must have a real low opinion of the guy lol.
These things happen all the time. AC Milan are masters in it. Offer 10m for a talent whose rated 30m and wait for the club to refuse it. Once they do it, smile and say that the team is actually competitive but the prices out there are simply over the top.
As I said AC Milan are becoming masters in it. They did try to take Aquilani/Berba off our hands for free of course.
Not saying it is the case but holding that opinion doesnt equate to having a low opinion of Fergie. His job is to do everything in the clubs best interest. So it's important for people to believe we can still compete for expensive players. Showing that we cant would hurt the clubs image. But I think in this case there are quotes from the other party as well.
This might be the case, but before this transfer saga started, I bet anyone on here wouldn't have put Lucas' value higher than what United came in for him for.
Why can't we compete? In terms of commercial deals we're fine. We've only had one not great season last season. Why can't we compete? How many people actually believe that?
Gah this is so tiresome.
We were never big spenders and things got worse with Chelsea, Shitty and PSG going in FM mode.
Whether we like it or not we work on a budget and there's a big debt to pay.
I'd rather spend the rumoured £30 million on getting Moutinho on a plane ASAP.
Modric would be a better option imo
Well at MUTV they are constantly hammering us about a new devil that is set to arrive. According to Rooney he's a legend and by the looks of it, he's so good that Giggs, Rooney and Evra are shitting in their pants at the prospect of competing with him.
He's also the type of signing the franchise love.

Daily Mail are going with the PSG story.
