Dr Mino and Mr Raiola? It all makes sense why the clubs hate him and the players love him.
 
Having few mates at mine tonight. All reds. If United announce Rom tonight - I'll let them bukaku my girlfriend.
 
Chelsea are desperate, feel like they want to really one up United, would be a huge win for them and make them look like a giant club! Whilst if they miss out they will blame the agent fee.

Dint post a translation with di marzio's tweet that was very clear to what it said and had accumulated earlier warnings. Banned for two days and also banned from the thread.

Anyways on to Lukaku...
 
State of skysports.com these days

"Everton want £90m"
"Everton accept £75m"
"Chelsea match United bid"
"United bid more"

They must just report everything anyone tells them

He's blatantly going to be a Man Utd player guys.

This transfer has been worked on for a while, and we've clearly been talking to the player / agent as have Chelsea. If there was any prospect of him going to Chelsea we'd not have leaked the bid, he was obviously aware the choice was Chelsea or Utd and he chose Utd hence everything going public.

This stinks of a PR stunt by Chelsea, getting their excuses in early that they tried to sign him but his agent was greedy.

Tbf this does seem like the sort of thing chelsea would do. In some ways it's clever managing of the situation from them.

Too many sources apprantly. Too many cooks spoil the food.
 
The Rooney deal was always giving us the upper hand in this, Chelsea just seem to be trying to prove a point about us paying more money to Raiola.

Seems like United are unfazed and started briefing our confidence in signing him still. Hopefully it'll be wrapped up over night / announced tomorrow.

I've always said wait for the Alan Myers Media tweets, haven't I guys?! That's what I've always bloody said!

I have no idea who he is, but the followers and accuracies seems promising!

Used to be one of Sky's reporters. Like a James Cooper. Not sure if it's Merseyside that was his patch. Can't remember.

It's a shame. Although they were never BBC levels of reliability, when they reported something, you felt safe it was well sourced. Now they've pretty much become TalkSport.
 

Chelsea advance for morata
Di marzio confirming that united got Lukaku and Now chelsea have been contacting Morata in last few hours.
The Lukaku target for the attack has come to an end (next reinforcement of Mourinho's Manchester United), Chelsea advances for Alvaro Morata. The Blues are soon looking for a substitute and the profile that interests them is that of former Spanish Juventus. Chelsea then work for Morata: we have been in contact for the last few hours and he is the attacker that the club wants to give Antonio Conte for the next season.

To think that he could've been England's Brave Romelu Lukaku...:(
More seriously, maybe Chelsea are trying to placate Crazy Conte by appearing to make a big effort.
 
Right this is done. What is the next thread kids?
