If they really think its a 'troll' from Jose...its pretty small time isn't it. He can be a wanker but doesn't come across as that kind of wanker.
Collecting copies of their tactical DVDs and notes while everyone else is outside.
Good man.
Because jokes about the incompetence of Woodward are hilarity defined.
Eddie.
I swear there were only about 30 pages in this thread yesterday. Is there any actual news in the last 30 pages?
That last line jojojo. I understand it to say it's a done deal informally. Is that correct?
It looks like a typical muppet saga.
1) Initial reports, eyes opening, muppets whispering "what if..."
2) A surge of optimism after a number of positive reports and clues, ie.: the clubs are close to an agreement, they've reached an agreement, it will be completed in 48 hours, Mata hasn't even trained etc.
3) Doubts start to creep in: turns out Mata was present at training, some sources say United are unwilling to pay the money...
4) Deal is off, says the press
5) Deal is off, say the clubs
We're at number 3. I very much expect 4) and 5) to happen as well.

Mate this is the transfer forum, news doesn't belong here.
What this thread is missing is Olly and Jeston. Where the feck are they?
feck. I meant "It"
So when's his first game going to be for us?
They know after their Thiago work to keep well away. Keep this more van Persie like.
I guess you are correct, sir. Was expecting too much.NNNNNNNNNNOOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Yeh right, it's Ball bag, ignore it.
Bit like DEFCON. But in reverse.
This is the exact negative energy which has taken players away from signing for our club.
Personally, having now seen both play in the same league I'd actually take Mata over Ozil. In the summer there'd be no question as I held Ozil is very high regard (though I didn't realise just how poor he is defensively). Now, since his massive dip in form I'd have Mata. He's Chelsea's best player and has been for two years and we could get him for less than Arsenal paid for Ozil? Good value is that. He'd be a huge player for us.
It's like people think we never sign anyone. As a collective we're manic depressive. All these reports of a deal agreed in principle and of talks and someone tweets it might be off and it's "Oh what a world, what a world!"
Just pressed F5 and it was 20 new posts in the last five minutes. Got my hopes up 
How do you sleep at night.
It appears Mata was at training after all
Yes - informally, unoffically all agreed - according to the "Chelsea sources".
I must admit I wouldn't be surprised by a bit of Chelsea wummery, pushing the price up by few million and then getting a head of steam behind the story with the media and fans. To put extra pressure on United to close the deal at their price.
But obviously that's just paranoia and they'd never mess around like that
In the summer... Mata had just hit 30 assists and 20 goals in one season...

To say goodbye to his soon to be former teammates ffs! Our Mata is a nice, well-mannered chap.
Why would he not have cause to turn up to training? It was likely his first chance since the news broke yesterday afternoon of a possible agreement in principle, to meet with club management. Nobody has said the deal would go ahead in the next 24 hours so it should't be seen as a negative if he suddenly doesn't miss 3 days of training before the weekend.
We've been hurt before and now we find it hard to love again.
It undermines both I'd say.
Mata to sign, reignite our season, and secure cl football in The 94th minute of the final game of the season with goal of the season, which in turn sparks off a frenzied summer transfer window leading to a league and cl double next year. ITS GOING TO HAPPEN!!!!!

Sky's back tracking was hilarious 'eh, we can confirm that Mata WAS at the training ground, but, eh, whether he trained or not isn't confirmed'... she actually said 'we wouldn't like to mislead anyone' -
perish the thought.Your internet is slow.Just pressed F5 and it was 20 new posts in the last five minutes. Got my hopes up
Could have been indoor training. Weights and treadmills and massages and all that horny stuff. I think Chelsea can afford an indoors, can't they?
..... or to secure the title and against City, with the derby having been rescheduled to the end of the season because of the CC.
6) Every muppet promises never to be sucked into muppetry again.
7) Back to step 1.
Did Mata play in the League Cup?

I know, and I thought Mata was a sensational footballer. I just thought Ozil was better. Having seen Ozil do this for so long, I've changed my mind.
