It's still bloody May
Our board seems to think like you, emoji included. All I can remember about post-SAF transfer windows are lots of inertia followed by last week panic buys.
All fun and games until a 19 year old is struggling in his first season because the pressure and football style is different.
Blind might be a joke to some of you but he is technically and positionally very well drilled.
Damn it feels good to be a gangster.
Go go go (power rangers)
Well yes that’s what I meant.
Tried that, as in a club tried to make a huge deal out of their player and gave an absurd evaluation on the price it was going to cost. When in reality the player is no where near that and gets exposed/price tag comes back down to earth.
So true
Yep. He (Blind) would be our best defender. I don’t get some people considering the state of our club to be able to make misconceived jabs like that. As if we’re in any position of power...
Blind isn't a joke to me?
Our Swedish Victor might be a joke to you but he’s not less matured than Blind. He’ll be fine.
R/reddevils is currently going mad. Some of the itk's there have had it confirmed that De Ligt to Utd is almost done.
I know everyone's sceptical of Reddit, but I guess this is make or break for the "ITK" there. They're saying that we've agreed a deal with Ajax and are close to finishing negotiations with De Ligt himself.
Is Raiola his agent or just a proxy to help him get a better deal and help Raiola pocket some commission?
Which ITK from reddit is saying this now?
As amazing as this signing would be, we’re still a long way from challenging at the top. There’s a lot of work to be done and this would only be a step in the right direction, don’t expect any miracles with him pairing Smalling at CB with Young at RB. De Ligt is probably 20% of what we need to get back to the level expected at Manchester United
Everyone's believing a guy named spoofex. Spoof? Come on now mate?
But this one is by some other guy who says he has a friend in marketing and a friend in scouting who've both confirmed it. Spoof has "verified" it.
Did he just recently like that pic?
The good news is, these lads have blown their load early. They've decided to drop their credibility in May so we won't have to hear about their bullshit for the rest of the window.
Is this the guy that said Griezmann was done last summer if we got kohler as a sponsor?
No. This guy is one of the mods on r/reddevils
I agree, and I'm actually relieved with this too. They've also pinned themselves to a big name that hasn't had much interest from credible journos, so if it does happen then they deserve some credit.
I'm not sure pal.
He has said he got Dalot, Grant and Kohler right before anyone really knew. Not sure if he said Griezmann was part of it.
No, he is different and poor guy has been driven to dirt
About this De Ligt thing though, 2-3 people on reddit saying ITK and claiming that De Ligt is confirmed, would be a massive thing if true
So apparently an ITK on reddit has verified information from another reddit user saying that there will be an announcement of some kind in the next few hours. Apparently it has something to do with De Ligt. If this actually happens that is mental.
Apparently Ajax have accepted our bid and contract negotiations are very nearly done.

It's fecking ON!!!
How frequent do those ITK posters post on RedDevils? They're probably wums from the Liverpool subreddit.
The De Ligt rumor has been verified three times by ITK's over there now. Spoof has been a mod for years I think, so staking his credibility for this seems like a ballsy move.
We will see. Have to wonder if they have just jumped on the muppetry after seeing the instagram likes.

Aren't we past all this ITK bullshit.
If they knew anything and had such strong links they'd be using the information in better ways than for free on Reddit.
This fecker thinks he knows our transfer plan to the letter.
It's nonsense.

Yep, I would keep to myself and put a nice large bet on said player joining
I think so, yes
May be, but then muppets gonna muppet !!
Chaps. Strap in.
Where we’re going we don’t need roads.

All fecking aboard.
I'm done with this club if Woodward signs the son of a man with an unhealthy BMI.
Has he taken the tier challenge?
(Reddit does a 'Tier Challenge' thing where if you make a bold claim and are wrong, you get banned)
Aside from that, I think this has gone from 50/50 Barca/Us to 10/90 Barca/Us
A slightly concerning piece of news: De Ligt has liked a pic by Messi in the last hour as well. Might mean nothing as the pic was sponsored by Adidas and MdL is also Adidas sponsored, but just putting it out there.
Dammit, I’m in now too. This is happeninnngggg!Oh feck... Guess i'm in.
They’ve said we had an offer accepted by Ajax, that’s the easy bit and meaningless really.
Any more room for one more on the muppet transfer bandwagon? 
Honestly, if we pull this off not only will I be ecstatically excited but absolutely shocked as to how we’ve done it!
