In hindsight should have tried a deal of moise Keane and cancelo for lukaku
Wan Bissaka?
Why do we need another fullback who is gonna wanna start?
Is anyone disputing that?
The anger is that we have wasted time on this shit when we could have fecking well addressed the issues in our squad by targeting players who wanted to play for us.
If the club cares so deeply about not having mercenaries playing for us then why did we entertain the Dybala nonsense in the first place?
We are run by incompetent fecktards.
Cancelo as a winger is not the answer to our problems.On the right wing of 4231, offensively would he be worse than Valencia during his best years? Or 352 with Bissaka as the right sided centre back and cancelo as the wing back, anything were we can get rid of lukaku and for a good deal
And none of them actually made noises about leaving publicly to actually show their interest. Wonder where Mitten saw the “desperation” from these players.
Can you use the time stone to check which signings would win us the title then?He is another Sanchez and Di Maria, probably worse
Stay away
We've not spent that long on the Dybala deal have we?
It's been a few days at most.
We didn't know if he wanted to come before negotiations started and it was such a great potential deal we probably stuck at it hoping we could convince him but once it was clear he was a mercenary we dropped it.
I think we've done the right thing.
I wouldn’t read it word for word. Don’t think he meant it like we are still considering.Oh so now we're only "considering" giving up?
Come on now
I'm hoping maybe we have pulled back to see if he then comes back to us seeing as Juve clearly want him gone, gonna be a mess if we don't get this done as 4 days to sell a player no one else can afford and buy a quality player to boost our shite attack is going to be difficult.
Yeah but there were only two weeks left at the timeWasted time? Come on the 'saga' lasted a week. Hardly a big deal in a 3 month transfer window
In fairness IF it went down like this I agree with the club, but was holding out the hope that he’d want to come and prove Juve wrong
Two and a half months to buy an attacker or at least a CM and we still haven’t done it. Atrocious!
We have a few young lads who could be every bit as good as he is, his coming into the club could have eaten away at their oppurtunity.
Slabhead, Axel, AWB, James, Greenwood,
Gomes and Chong is enough of an injection of new blood.
Personally I don't want Mandzukic so this is a weird situation.According to Romano tweet Mandzukic deal 'will be difficult to complete' if Dybala doesn't happen.
Thats what he wrote though. You saying that is just a pure guessI wouldn’t read it word for word. Don’t think he meant it like we are still considering.
Voice of sense hereWe were jilted at the last minute. Blaming high wage demands is very likely a press release.
Inter might now get Lukaku on the cheap.
Wasted time? Come on the 'saga' lasted a week. Hardly a big deal in a 3 month transfer window
I’m quite surprised we’ve done it like this, myself.
I’d have thought we’d maybe have tried to draw Inter into a bidding war first, and squeeze a bit more out of them.
It's all gonna be over very soon. A lot of our fans are stressing themselves over nothing
The problem is, we're getting different stories.I wouldn’t read it word for word. Don’t think he meant it like we are still considering.
I don't think it's really a matter of money. From what we know he really want's to stay and he's yet to speak with Sarri isn't he?Fabrizio Romano sounds like it is not over yet, but it is unlikely Dybala decreases demands now. Maybe only if Sarri says he will be in reserves entire season, probably on reserves’ bench
I agree with this but don't at the same time. Football is different now.
Aguero and Silva didn't sign for City because they grew up watching them play at Maine Road etc.
Top players expect to be paid top money which is fair enough, by all accounts Dybala doesn't want to leave Juventus despite us offering him massive money, doesn't that make him the opposite of a mercenary?
The actual truth is probably closer to players just don't consider us to be in the upper echelons of football anymore.
