So do we reckon he will have his medical and sign the contract today (LA time) and be announced tomorrow morning?

amazing.Pleased this one is over the line. Wondering when it will be officially announced? I'm guessing the "training tomorrow" line was a joke if the club flies out on Sunday. So maybe see him on Monday?
I won't say I don't care about the fee, because of course you want the club to be run well. That includes not overspending on players. But I completely understand the fee. Some people are touting the price as a sign of the times, which is true to an extent, but you also need to look at where we are as a club: We are very rich; We lost our top scorer from last season and openly said we needed to replace him; We lost out on our initial target(s); We haven't been successful for a few years now and are trying desperately to get back to the top. It's easier to say no when you are shopping for a cherry to top the cake... right now we are still searching for the flour and eggs. We couldn't afford to go into next season without signing a striker.
If we weren't in for him, Chelsea probably get him at the end of the window for a few million less.

Yes, could stretch it to Monday to get pics with Jose but I think they will be pretty busy once the rest of the team lands.
Of course it was acted out, why would it have been filmed? It is still funny though, Pogba is quality.
Mail are saying Utd wanna give Lukaku a "hollywood unveiling"...whatever that means!
So maybe pilib does have some contacts. Getting an interview with lukaku when he signs for united is great.
My god I was absolutely buzzing for days after that.
no. 9 and 7 still up for grabs?
Give Lukaku the 9 shirt!
A CB as no.2 and a pure striker as no.10. Quite nutty.
Number 7 waits for Grirzmann. I hope we can dangle the 9 jersy infront of rashford to make him work hard and make him a good player worth it.
2 suggests primary position will be right back, unless we're going three at the back this year, which I think is likely. Martial will most likely pick up the number 9 if Lukaku takes number 10, which doesn't feel right at all.

No sexual or suggestive imagery and subsequent off-topic posts, please. There might be kids viewing this forum.
I liked the Stormzy Adidas reveal video, thought that was ballsy.
So no James then if he gets the 10
Nah, I can't see it. If Lukaku opts for 10, 9 will either be left blank or go to Rashford in my opinion.
7 is reserved for Perišić.
Are the numbers allocated to players playing in that respective position or players can chose anything?
in before everyone starts puking
Imagine the meltdown if that happened
Perfect. Hope this happens.
I find it very mildly annoying when players don't opt for their proper numbers.
They tend to meet up in the USA on holiday. Here's another vid from this time last year:
I'm imagining it.
Well his first tweet he claims Raiola just rang Woodward up and that's how the Lukaku bid started. However he contradicts himself later on. Seems like he's just making it up, I doubt he knew anything and that first tweet was just his fabrication, it also contradicts claims from a lot of other journo's.
All I'm trying to point out is let's not start to believe this guy when he starts making claims again, lets still take him with a pinch of salt
It will be 44. He wears 4 for Croatia.
