You're everything that's wrong with the United fanbase
This was always the problem with this scenario. It seemed like an all or nothing thing to me. If the deal falls through (which it has), then we'd be stuck with Lukaku. I just can't see him leaving now by the time the window closes. Hope i'm wrong.
Maybe, but who's got the money to buy Neymar? Didn't Barca have to take out a huge loan to get Griezmann? They're not going to be able to afford him unless they do some massive offloading.
Real won't buy him, and no other clubs can afford him
yeah but it shows they've learned their lesson and won't make the same mistake again, and thank god for that.
It more of a problem for Lukaku than it is for us.
It’s the right thing to draw a line if we were to end up with another player like Sanchez with questionable motivation and ludicrous wages. I’m disappointed, but not in the club for once.
I’d hope we are still active for a midfielder or two even. We need creativity, as without Pogba we look as if we lack vision. We desperately need a defensive, holding midfielder, who can both screen the defence and who can pass forward and find Pogba. That was was my priority at the start of the summer. We should surely be in for Bruno Fernandes too, but that one doesn’t seem to be happening.

Pleased this didn't happen. Would have been another Di Maria and Sanchez.
How were we to know? The guy had been tearing it up in the Prem for the last few seasons for arsenal
He wasnt the game changer signing people were hoping for anyway. Would have made a difference but not a massive one. As long as we sign an attacking CM we'll be alright.
Didn't want the jumped up cnut anyway.....
You're right, I just checked and stand corrected. Still Berba though and also Rooney, meh we have no hope.
We have not been playing with a number 10 anyway. Gomes and Greenwood look smart, for me, and should be given a chance. More so than those who have been like Andreas who just looks very short of quality.
If we can get Fernandes, it is a decent transfer window... and a true rebuild start. Without any replacement for the midfielders we have lost, however, we really do lack quality in midfield.
Weren't Robben and Sneijder booted out of Real Madrid? Just because a player doesn't want to move doesn't mean he will end up like Di Maria.
We ll be alright to do what? Fight for that 4th spot?
Even though I would have loved us to sign a player of his calibre, I'm glad we didn't sign him. He clearly doesn't want to join United which is his good right of course. We need players who are eager and hungry to play for us.
Lukaku to Inter hopefully.
Did we really waste that much time on him anyway? It was just the weekend really. It’d be worrying if we’d spend more than two weeks on this like we did with Fabregas in 2013. Seemed like Juve were the ones pushing it anyway the way it’s been reported. All their top brass flying all the way to London to meet us etc.
Good. Now go all out for a central midfielder and bring in Jadon Sancho next season. An inflexible second striker is the least of our problems right now.
As much as I'd like him this is a sensible move.
It's called learning.
But before we bought him, wasn't he having an absolute mare at Arsenal?
Complaining of how late the club have left to do this. If this was early June then you could understand maybe it but not. It's so late in the window, looks weak and desperate.
No I meant that's probably why his agent said that months ago - to get their attention. Maybe if Barca could sell Coutinho they could go for him.
It was obvious from the start he would be forced to do such a move. There was never a single report that he's enthusiastic about the idea of playing for us or in England or general. Only that both clubs wanted it to happen.
Better to move on. Don't need another Di Maria case. Top player, but means jack shite if he doesn't want to play for us.

Do we actually know that? Maybe the manager changes his mind? It’s happened before. Didn’t Mou sell Mata when he was at Chelsea and use him here?
I agree with this 100%. We have to build from a foundation of having a squad of players that are together and motivated. Nothing should jeopardise that.
Hopefully. If the player wants to be here, and is of great quality, then yeah, offer high.
Not sure who we're going to get in with 5 days left though
Not really. Having a wantaway striker on a fat contract sitting on the bench is far from ideal. Especially when there’s Sanchez as well!
It's a shame because he's a class player and could have been brilliant for us.
However it always looked like a case of Juventus forcing him out rather than Dybala wanting to join us so we have most probably dodged a bullet here.
Now just sell Lukaku to Inter, tell Juventus we won't be helping them get old man Mandzukic off their wage bill, and buy a right winger!

And that is his problem, not mine or yours. He has made his decision.
He can leave as soon as our value is met.
Well I mean bin him off and get another addition to the attack.
Yeah. Did you expect us to do the treble if Dybala joined?
Don't think we're selling Lukaku now without a guaranteed replacement. He'll have to stay I guess.
It’s always better to pull out early than to risk it. Good decision. I just hope we’ll bring in someone else instead.
Hopefully soon, but it looks like Inter is reluctant to go higher. Juventus obviously can’t.
He's a shite b-tec Messi.
If he's gonna be a little bitch, which I suspected he is based on his looks, let him be a little bitch. He has nowhere near the clout to make demands on par with a top player. He isn't one yet.
We'll sell him, he doesn't want to be here and we don't want him. We will probably sign Mandzukic.
Bullet dodged.
Pleased we are walking away, would have been Di Maria all over again.

Then feck both those clubs. Inter are counting on the fact that we might be desperate to sell. We shouldn’t. If they are that desperate pay the fecking money.
