Leaving this here because I've wanted him here since that game
Some moron on Talksport was talking about how Varane is unproven in PL while Ben fecking White is great buy because he is proven in PL.
Truth is we've been great in the market so far, getting Sancho and Varane for discount fees, but the combined sum for both of them is just above the €120m we were quoted for Sancho last summer.
Sancho - €85 million
Varane - €40 million + add ons
Are we sure we are not getting Sanchezed again? Performance wise.
Nurse then
They're quite accurate for Madrid news more often than not
,most of the journos on there are close to Florentino PerezPrecisely.
Ed resigned at the end of the 2021 season so that would suggest Murtaugh and Fletcher are the two men in charge of the transfer decisions
This looks like a fantastic signing at an unbelievable price. I’m pretty jealous, especially as Arsenal are paying significantly more for a Centre Back with just a single decent top flight season to his name.
Madrid letting go of Varane and Ramos seems bonkers. But then, this is the club that happily sold Makelele. Maybe they just don’t care about defensive players?!?

Year, not season, wasn't it?
This is lost on me.
Transfer decisions yes, but I’m thinking about the numbers and actual talks between the clubs. Matt Judge is still in his role right?
They do all this to sign Mbappe. Watch him screw them over and sign a new contract with PSG.
What a transfer window this has been already. It has to be the best post SAF and hopefully we're not quite done
It's right up there with the best Ferguson windows. If we get one more quality player in - it is at least top-3 transfer window of all times.
think yourself lucky. don’t go looking for the answer
You’re one of those nit-picky people aren’t you? Well you’re still wrong. It’s £73m + £34m which is the less than the £108m Dortmund wanted last summer.
Wasn't United / Fergie a big admire of Benzema? How's his contract going on?
oh yeah i believe he's still the primary negotiator on the business end but i'm sure Murtaugh must play a small role in this like Woodward did. Guess Murtaugh just makes Judge force a bit of harder bargain
The difference is Woody and Judge are mates. Now Judge reports to Murtough who isn't taking any shit.
Please don't, still gutted we never got him from Lyon.
But yeah Fergie was a big admirer of him, tried everything to get him after that game he tore us to shreds, he chose Real instead.
Reduced fee for selling them Ronaldo all those years ago.
We're going to sign Ronaldinho and Alan Shearer too
Can we please change the title to something related to what Ornstein said. He's the tier above everyone.
Can't spell Murtough without TOUGH.
We're orny, orny orny orny tonight
We might get an announcement from United or Madrid tonight with the speed that things are moving at
The phone in the Brighton Director’s office is currently ringing constantly, with no one answering. They’ve just sent a fax to Arsenal saying ‘You can’t back out now, you agreed, £50million, that’s legally binding you know’
