Our Boom-bust cycle during transfer windows is like a Liverpool season on RAWK. 
Luke Shaw | Deal done! Almost...

You are weak. Muppets need to be strong.I'm steering clear of major participation in any transfer threads this summer. The Fabregas thread last summer took my soul
What do you think, this is FM for talks to be concluded in 30 seconds or less?
How long until van Gaal isn't interested and he's talking about Buttner sharing his philosophy?
Are you running some kind of anti-van Gaal propaganda?
Nah, I lost the plot last summer. I think I actually had a meltdown when the Herrera deal went tits up. Not doing it again this time.
Who cares as long as he signs eventually? Its only frustrating if we spend a lot of time trying to make it happen and then fail to do so
Wasn't Thiago a bigger let down than Herrera?
Nah, because Herrera was the last day - it was the end of the road and I realised that we'd done naff all for the whole summer other than sign Fellaini. At least after we missed out on Thiago, we still had the hope that we'd get someone else in. Crazy transfer window.
How long until the brown acid (that LvG took) wears off is the question? Considering if he passes up on Kroos - if that deal is at all possible of course, and the links to Robben & Sneijder too?!
Thats not the reaction from our new manager we expected - quite the opposite in fact. We've money to spend & we dont need another summer of shambolic transfer activity IF the right top-class players are available..
Now that the Kroos transfer looks unlikely I really hope we get this done before the WC. We need some good news.
Spot on.
What is wrong with you? Van Gaal hasn't even done anything and every post of yours regarding him seems to be negative.
Things have been extremely quiet on this.
The word seemed to be that it is pretty much done. If it is we really ought to confirm it ASAP to take the attention/flak away from us a bit.
Last I heard talks were ongoing.. what there is to talk about for over a week mind I haven't a clue. We must be one of the worst clubs when it comes to getting over the line with transfers.
We will be haggling over a few million, probably trying to spread it over about 10 years knowing us.
Wouldn't be surprised if he is not a " Van Gaal" target, waiting for Jamie Jackson to come out and share this. My muppet dream is already crashed, chasing fecking James McCarthy
Probably because it is done.
Apparently he could be staying now.
Couldn't make this shit up.
Couldn't make this shit up.
No, this is a done deal.
Thank God I'm not a transfer Muppet.
Link?
Southampton manager is staying and according to Jamie ''muppet killer' Jackson one of the terms is that Shaw won't be sold.
Say it Saint so.
This would certainly explain the long delay with no news, if negotiations were ongoing with Poch and keeping Shaw was one of the "deal breakers"
He didn't say that.
lock the transfer forum.I know he's only reporting what he hears but I hate Jamie Jackson.
He needs to be eliminated before there is no hope left
Jamie Jackson must be a City fan.... his boom bust cyle with us and our transfers just reeks of a massive wum.
Where have you read this?
It's not on his timeline or Guardian page.
This Pochettino has only been broken by Metro and they've no mention of Luke Shaw.
There's always Ashley Cole.
Shaw sounds like Beckham when he talks
I genuinely think he is messing with us on this one, Jackson that is.
Jackson hasn't said anything. Can people just verify themselves before losing their shit.
Even this Pochettino news is only broken by Metro newspaper.
Even this Pochettino news is only broken by Metro newspaper.
Thing is, didn't Woodward say only last week that deals were being done? This Jamie Jackson where is he getting his info from because I'm amazed how someone can go from saying Kroos was agreed to him saying it wasn't and LvG has called everything off. And now Shaw is 'apparently' staying...if I was a betting man I'd bet on Jamie Jackson being full of shit.
