Sure, I said there's definitely a lot of that as well, it's the normal reaction, but then you have the jilted lover reaction that you see in every fan forum where you suddenly find the flaws, and how it probably worked out for the best, there's better out there, etc. It can also be the reverse effect as @JPRouve mentioned above.
Raphael Varane | Signed for United!

He’s be hilariously good next to Maguire, think they would complement each other perfectly. I’ve said this before, he’s the closest thing to Rio around at the moment. Can do everything.
He will be absolutely perfect signing.
If not him, I'd want us to go for Pau Torres. If even that is not possible than anyone of Christian Romero, Sven Botman or Badiashile.

I’ll literally cry if we end up Maguire-Lindelof next season without attempting to upgrade or at very minimum get Lindelof a babysitter in the way of a good DM
Focus is on Sancho deal presently. Window has a long way to go and the best players are all on active international duty. Once we get Sancho, I'd estimate we'll need to sell to buy other additions.
Reliable talk of Axel going out on loan which suggests we don't need to sell a CB to buy with funds there already
Other positions is a different story
Fair play to the optimism shown here in getting a £300k p/w CB in as well as Sancho a FB and possibly a midfielder!
Jesse isn't!
Agree with this
Well if he's your ideal player, rest easy as he's contracted to United
don't depress me
Is there any confirmed interest from United? I also heard rumours that Chelsea were interested.
Boooooo
Hopefully this is just an opportunistic journalist trying to guess a scoop off the back of the Ramos announcement.
Poor man's Lindelof. Never wanted him.
How fit is he? wasn't he struggling with injuries a bit last couple of years?
Edit: never mind he's staying in Madrid it seems.

Not good enough to bench our current options anyway!
Money or Ole.
It was always going to be one or the other between him and Ramos to stay. Shame.
Feels like a bit odd timing to sign a new contract now.
Why?
Shame, would've been a good back-up for Lindelof and Baily.
That's our second rejection from Varane.
Most players don’t want to focus on contracts during the tournaments and in a team like France, he would have big chances of increasing his value.
Stick a fork in it, this one's done.
Time for Ramos to close in on his hattrick
Ramos news probably means they can give him what he’s asked for
I’m fairly certain that felix guy said Ramos was renewing about 3 days ago
Surprise of the year.
That’s true, didn’t think about that.
Do Varane and Ramos not get along or something?
For United, there is from Luckhurst and Whitwell. Regarding Chelsea, there was never anything substantial.
I can't tell if you're memeing or not, but José Félix Díaz is one of the most reliable Real Madrid journalists around. With that said, I can't find anything in Marca's website about the Varane renewal, so I've no idea how RM4Arab got that info. Take that Varane extension news with a pinch of salt.
Felix on Ramos a week ago:
He's shit anyway.
So he was just waiting for Ramos to feck off?
I kind of hope this is true. Don't need another Ramos saga by another name, Utd need to get on with realistic options that might sign for us.
Overhyped CB
Being the best defender at a World Cup is pretty good justification for any level of hype. Can’t think of a single defender that achieved that feat without being one of the best defenders of his era…
