Reddit ITKs
- Thread starter Marzo
- Start date
So the summary from that reddit ITK is:
- Sancho possibly back on, Hazard and Brandt signings possible preparations for him leaving
- Wan Bissaka on and pretty far along, not going forward with Meunier
- Partey on, Pogba will be staying
- Koulibaly off
- De Ligt maybe still will go to Barca but plenty of encouragement that we can get him now? Also that Ajax fan on here says that he's never cared for La Liga and always preferred the premier league so... it's on?
- Bale loan option possible, Jovic possible if the madrid deal collapses
- Bailly has offers
- De Gea leaving to PSG this summer
- Pogba staying
- Sanchez has an offer from Inter
- Lukaku possible to Inter
Really putting his neck out there.
I think grown men should be able to have enough emotional balance to be able to read shit like this in good spirit. I’ve never been a fan of the whole ‘of this isn’t true, ban him!’ stuff. Like, get your emotions in check, we’re talking hypothetical football transfers here, which will all be revealed within weeks anyway. This idea of censorship is ridiculous to me, just because people can’t take ‘heartbreak’.
By all means, no need to post all the random wasters on Twitter, but when I read for calls to ban entire newspapers, or people who are out being professional sports journalists while we do whatever it is we do on a daily basis, but of a stretch to me. Like, believe what you want, and ignore it if you don’t. No football going on, let it flow!

Yep, and it helps us forget about last season, and make us believe we can win the League, the FA Cup, the Europe L, and qualify for the CL the following season, so it’s that hope and belief that you cling onto.
That’s football guys, and the the hope and anticipation it gives us for next season, embrace the silly season.
We go again.
Another one has entered the fray: 'drewing12'
What’s he said ?
My uncle cleans cars at the training ground and noticed Woodward's glove box was open and there was a contract all written up for De Ligt in there. This is happening guys.
There were ITKs coming out of the woodwork over five minutes on reddit yesterday trying to get in on the story that De Ligt was signing for United. Spoofex did his usual thing of saying the news would be breaking soon and was again proven wrong within hours just like with the James announcement that never happened. On top of that he revealed that one of his sources was another reddit user called RightSaidFred_MUFC. People then looked into that guy's post history and saw he had made multiple claims that never happened such as United buying Mbappe, signings being done, VdS being appointed director. So that's yet another blow to Spoofex's credibility and people seem to be doubting him for the first time. He needs to get something right soon or the reddit muppets will be very angry with their king.
The one reddit ITK with an actual history of getting things right (xisimon) posted to say that De Ligt is a possibility because he was expected to join Barcelona and they are having problems finalising the deal, which is pretty obvious/already known anyway.

This has to be one of the most vague comments I've ever seen.
This is the only guy that I think knows someone at the club, but it won't be anyone important, probably just a higher up at marketing or something. There's no way that someone with actual power at Utd browses the Utd reddit forum.
I take all these things with a pinch of salt, see it as more of a laugh rather than anything too serious. But James' father passed away, can't really account for that can you.
I was just about to post something similar. For the life of me I can’t understand how people get so angry and upset over supposed ITK’s. It’s fecking rumors about football transfers. If they happen to be true, then great, if not then so what? It’s not like they’re releasing rumors that you’re about to be fired on Monday. It’s not that serious.
I think in reality there’s probably some weird rumour vortex in effect.
People within the club repeat a rumour from outwith the club, which then becomes a rumour from within the club.
Human nature is bizarre sometimes and the way people interpret and repeat information being presented, is fascinating.
The oddest phenomenon is people using events that weren’t actually predicted accurately, as some kind of evidence of someone’s credibility. It’s astonishing sometimes.
Really does resemble the way the psychic world operates, indeed.

Yes it's not worth getting worked up about. It's just a load of kids sat in their bedrooms having a bit of fun making stuff up on the internet, that a load of other kids sat in their bedrooms are having a bit of fun reading.
Nobody actually thinks any of these people know anything.
It's right to keep all this drivel confined to a single thread, though.
I don't really want to talk about a serious and private subject in a silly reddit itk thread but for the record spoofex was claiming that there would be an announcement on Tuesday night about United signing James and his dad passed away very suddenly late on Wednesday. So I don't believe that was the reason for this supposed announcement not happening. Won't talk about this again, feel awful for the family
I would be happy if the mods decided to ban all posts from these "reddit leakers".
I don't know why I get so mad every time I see them make huge leak posts.

I respect your right not to talk about it, but you're incorrect. But yeah, we'll leave it there.I don't really want to talk about a serious and private subject in a silly reddit itk thread but for the record spoofex was claiming that there would be an announcement on Tuesday night about United signing James and his dad passed away very suddenly late on Wednesday.

You would think no one thinks that any of them know anything, but then why do people get so angry about it
My favourite not ITK has to be manchesterunitedrumours.co.uk
In all the years I have dipped in there and there various expert eds, dont think they have got a single thing right ever

They still going strong?Do people really think that a professional player will put in a higher effort because he supported a club when he was young? Such a lazy argument.
Entirely dependant on their manager and their individual personality. But look at someone like Gaz Neville, once he knew he couldn't do it, he quit for the benefit of the club. He was a highly motivated individual and he genuinely had the club at heart when he was on the pitch. Then look at Pogba, who seems half arsed a lot of the time. Would Pogba be motivated more for his youth club? Probably not...
I would argue that you cant really compare players that grew up at the club with foreign players who might have had a United shirt on when they were young. To compare Gaz with Meunier is just.... not very adequate.
To be honest, I much prefer the elaborate stories of marketing minions or cleaning staff overhearing something to the usual useless sh*t journalists post:
- United consider bid
- so and so club get ready to reject bid
- United prepare bid
- player has a choice between money or other club
And so on. These ITK stories are much more imaginative

So, if Koulibaly is off, and De Ligt not really likely, who is going to come in at CB?

That corrienationstr and toplawyer20 on twitter had quite a following for a long time.
Think someone slayed the former when they told him a player was signing from some random side and he bought it, and then posted it as exclusive news, but it was actually an anagram of something like 'I talk a load of bollocks', and the lawyer just talked in riddles, and then when we signed someone he'd claim one of the riddles was him telling his followers weeks previous.
Mad, but people get drawn in every time with these sort of guys.
There is a user u/drewing12 on reddit who has taken the tier challenge!
Think he has just said DeLigt has agreed to come

Reddit ITK said tier 1/2s will start relaying the news today
Gerard Romero (tier 1 for Barca) has just come out and said De Ligt is very close to United

Sure it's not Gregory Romeno?
They doubted us Reddit boys after last night, but who's laughing now
At the very least this proves that they definitely know something and that they're worth listening to.
This would be a dream scenario
