Predict Man Utd's deadline day deals.

1. Antony signs for an insane fee. Ajax sign Calvin Stengs from Nice for the 10M or so they paid for him to be their new RW, or maybe Amad goes there on loan and Ajax get an option to buy for like 15M.
2. Last minute bid for Jonathan David, but we don't close it and end up signing Moussa Dembele for 15M as he only has one year left and we know we can just move him on if he isn't a success here.
3. Cristiano and the club walk away with him giving back 5M or so and he can take his time picking his next club.
4. Wan-Bissaka to Palace
5. Dubravka loan
6. RB loan bid for Meunier fails and we end up making Brandon Williams the backup RB, and Ten Hag gets a handpicked one in January or goes in for Timber (since it's after the WC).

Not against Dembele if we got Antony too, think that would give us balance across front three
 
In:
Anthony 101m
Dubravka, loan
Depay 15m

Out:
AWB 10m
J.Garner 18m

Don’t see us loaning a keeper unless he’s guaranteed first team. Think the idea of them wanting to be loaned is to play more games. He won’t be guaranteed that here. I think we buy him for a small fee and he can compete with de gea for number 1.
 
We have only 4 days to end of the window. And the only ones we seem to be really working on are Antony/ Dubravka.
And throughout the season, the fastest we have moved from rumor to deal has been 4 days.

So highly skeptical that we bring more than 2 players.

IN:
RM: Antony/ Gakpo (not RM, but Wide fwd, let's say)
GK: Dubravka

Out:
Some loans +
Garner
Ronaldo seems unlikely as no club seems to be really willing to take him.

Happy to be proven wrong come 1st Sep
 
A lot depends on today's match day performance, I'd think. A loss may not be too bad in the grand scheme of things.

This line of thinking is preposterous. As if another good performance is going to change 10years of mediocrity & EtH is gonna go back on his demand to the board. :lol: :lol:

I wouldn't mind losing today if that forces the Glazers to (panic and) close the deals for Antony and FDJ. Both deals seem to have been stalled by failing to pay another 10 and 15m, respectively. We aren't winning the League anytime soon, but need a couple of good players to even think of finishing in the top-4.

This

Although I can equally see scraping a draw and nobody being bought.

Firing squad for Murtough the day after. (I don’t mean actually executing him, just being fired and ending his days at Accrington Stanley)
 
I’m strangely excited for the end of this transfer window for us. It’s going to be utter chaos that is mostly going to end in disappointment but up until that point I’m going to enjoy every second it. Strap in boys!
 
Neymar - 175m euros rising to 220 with UCL and Baloon door.
Memphis - 20m
Thomas Foket - 15m
Igor Akinfeev - free
Tó Madeira - 5 magic beans.
 
In: Dubravka(loan), Depay, Antony

Out: Ronaldo, Garner, AWB(loan), Hannibal(loan)

Can people please stop believing the FDJ stalled over money. It. Did. Not.
 
Antony, then FDJ, with maybe one or both of Depay and Dest to smooth things along with Barca - hopefully not Dest and we go for Timber in the January window.

And yes, I know I'm overreaching...

Dubravka is the only one I'm sure of at the moment.

God knows what happens between now and Thursday

Haha whats going on here
 
So far what is Man United signing for are the biggest protests we've seen in football from decades.
 
This is what I fancy might happen.

Out
AWB
Garner
Ronaldo (loan to Sporting) - I think we may do this for squad harmony etc but maybe Casemiro and Varane can convince Ronaldo to buy in.

In
Antony
Dubravka
Dest
Memphis
 
Less than we’d hope. Out? Maybe AWB on loan. In? Dubravka and perhaps Antony. If not the latter then maybe Memphis or a surprise.
 
I'm terrified by the prospect of management getting complacent after two wins and calling it a day.

I could see this being it, no deadline additional.
 
In:

Antony
FdJ
Memphis
Dest
Dubravka

Out:

Garner (permanent)
Ronaldo (permanent)
AWB (permanent)
Jones (permanent)
Amad (loan)
Pellistri (loan)
Hannibal (loan)
Chongy (loan)
 
Very little is going to happen in 5 days after 3 months of inactivity. And we're playing Thursday night.
 
In :
De Jong
Anthony
A cheap backup veteran striker, like a non-racist Arnautovic
A barely known 18/19 year old South American defender

Out :
Van De Beek
Ronaldo
Maguire
Chong, Williams, Jones

Edit: apparently Williams and Jones won't be leaving as they're injured...
