It's surprising that this is the first time you're seeing this. Rio is the biggest muppet of us all & he's one of the most vocal United supporters around, has been for years.

Yep, the mighty Madrid would have fleeced us
You know they don't think it's good money when they tell you it's "good money" instead of announcing the fee.
Its the madness before the finish line, we almost there fellow muppets!
Haha I greatly enjoyed writing it as well.I believe that this gem of a post is describing exactly what’s happening between Perez and Murtough right now
Played his best days and won a shitload of trophies at United. I'd say he's a fan alright.
If that’s the correct translation of his tweet, then isn’t it a done deal? It even said we ‘paid’ for it and it was good money
Wonder where all the "Fabrizio knows nothing he just recycles news" folk are.
This would be an interesting example to follow to see who is right.
In fairness I didn’t think they’d get over 40m so they’ve done well. Everyone is happy with the deal I’m sure.
He would have been Milwall based on locality but we all have seen what years of playing for a club, the captaincy and the support players get, does to them.
You wouldn’t say Carragher and Gerrard are anything but Liverpool fans.
Any negative news brings the Snijder and Vidal sagas back hopefully the Madrid tweet is just PR spin or something ?
Sancho, Varane, Veratti.... who's next?
The Varane Saga in the Eyes of Bruno! Had some time on my hands
220k likes and almost 4 million followers compared to...
20k likes and 1.3 million followers.
He's been even papped using United merch long after leaving us.
We got him. Two first XI signings in one window. Another one of these for the midfield and I think we might be contenders.
I'm late but why do people keep saying he's involved in every major transfer for top clubs? I'm 95% sure if you look through his history there will be deals he's not commented on. Also, what use is it for him to provide news about club youth players moving out on loan or whatever? It's clearly him using his sources to boost players in exchange for future info.
Why would he even bother then to credit other journalists? Just to mask the ones he's stealing from?
It's an interesting answer, it doesn't address the point but shows how people mistakenly judge something based on likes and followers.
Considering Fab posted about 4.5 hours earlier, I'd expect this sort of a gap!
Di Marzio probably got a lot of those followers back when he was literally doing an hour-by-hour diary on the Pogba transfer
More likely to Rio has been incessantly calling him!jumping the gun some what, though maybe Varane has text him
This is a move that will fully grind the gears of our rivals.
He sure was milking it.Di Marzio probably got a lot of those followers back when he was literally doing an hour-by-hour diary on the Pogba transfer
Romano used to work for DM, but he left to go it alone.
DM has had quite a few ‘’misses” since then, he’s obviously not got the patience or desire for social media.
Romano has evolved into the next level of transfer reporting embracing social media.
Di Marzio probably got a lot of those followers back when he was literally doing an hour-by-hour diary on the Pogba transfer
He also live-tweeted from the Darmian negotiations and posted live pics of him on his way to Manchester
Agreed. With the addition of Sancho too, it also mitigates playing Bruno as a #10. Playing him 5-10 yards back in a 3 where he can see more of the pitch and chip in when out of possession. Exciting times ahead.

Didn't Samuel Luckhurst break the Varane news today before Romano? I'm pretty sure he did.
I mean if he's had all this investment and United end up not winning anything and finishing 2nd or 3rd (but maybe a bit closer to 1st), then does Ole keep his job or go? Sounds like fans might want him out in that scenario but the Glazers wouldn't act?
it’s a done dealio guys relax.
none of these sources would go this big without knowing it’s done.

Yeah and I just assumed he likes the club because he played for us for so 12 years and didn't think he actually supported United.
I suppose players must love a club they spent so many years at and end up being a supporter of more than one club.
Who would he want to win in a one off cup final between United and West Ham though? Because 22 years as a West Ham fan before leaving must leave strong feelings and he has probably supported them for years since he left in 2000.
I have seen a lot of Rio muppetry tbf but wasn't sure if he was actually a supporter or just a gleeful ex player that loves the club due to playing for so long here.
We’ll remember this summer as Muppet Dream Summer. Historical events.
Deadline day is going to be boring. Jim White weeping in the corner
Based on their Linkedin they are both working for Sky Italia. I'm in a mood for breaking your collective dreams, I'm pretty sure that Romano is full of it and a mere parrot who likes to tweet and twitch.
Ahh.. A fellow tamilian. Varan actualy means a prospect i guess. But hey its varane day.
If this happens will be fascinating to see the outgoings. Tis a lot of cash, even spread across 5 years. (for Sancho and Varane)
But in terms of addressing squad problems, all hail the Ole-volution. Ol-ution? Rev-Oletion? Ugh.

Yeah due to his playing career we're his team now, he absolutely loves the club
