look nothing alike apart from being black. Its like looking at 2 white players and saying they look alike when the only thing they have in common is being white. However, I spot the difference champion 2001.

Stormzy himself said he can't believe how alike they look when he was on Soccer AM and he found it funny... it's clearly not just because they are both black.
 
I'm checking this page for updates every 10th minute...zzz.
Just get it done, and start with the next one :)



I'm a man, so i don't listen to hip hop, that's for kids and girls :)
Me neither, I only know his music because of the night I spent with my cousin and her friends.
 
Transfers can be announced any time. Whether the stock market is open, closed or in the middle of burning down. It's irrelevant.

Do we have to do this every year!?
:lol:
 
I like the idea of giving Pogba shirt number 10. If we sign a DM and not an attacking one, I assume that's where he'll play as well

This is just untrue, they clearly look quite alike, Stormzy even said it himself on Soccer AM before.

It's almost as if it's the other extreme with black people now where if you say two black people look alike then you're immediately assumed as being racist.
 
Stormzy has got a lyric in one of his songs where he even references looking like Lukaku so I don't know why everyone is getting so heated over it.

Simple error by someone that has never heard of Stormzy never mind what he looks like.

As for why we're taking so log to announce it, it's going to be a combination of long flight and knocking up some sort of announcement video. Expect to see it done later tonight.

Nope I'm sticking with my opinion that they don't look alike to me.

Your both getting defensive and overexcited. I don't think your racists just because you think 2 black men look alike.

In one picture I can see why someone would have that opinion but in others they look totally different to me.

Think you need your eyes checking. They obviously look similar.

Pretty much, I agree. Some weird over defensiveness there.

That comment wasn't in reference to you, merely an overall observation that there does seem to be a lot of outrage when you say black people look alike as opposed to saying white people look alike.

Look at all the shit that Herald guy is going to get into over this, probably get called a racist ten times over for it, despite the fact that they do look alike. If he did it with two white guys, would anyone give a flying feck? I doubt it.

That's my opinion. You can have yours but don't think you can force me to accept yours .

I think I look like brad pit but my wife would argue...

Just because I think I look like someone doesn't mean it's true...

They would give a feck but for different reasons namely competence

Let's not start making this into a something it's not
 
It has been 3 days since we have known that United agreed a deal for Lukaku subject to medical and personal terms. In the mean time Lukaku has already given a 5 minute interview about why he chose United and why he wants to play for Mourinho again and we have seen pictures and have heard confirmation that he has already had his medical.

Why in godsname hasn't it been made 100% official yet by the club and haven't we seen Photo's from him in a United shirt, you know apart from the photoshoped one and the one where it is actually Stormzy. Seriously what is this club up to ? When Rooney signed for Everton, it was immediatley official, they had a little intro video, pictures of him in a shirt and all but we are waiting for that for almost 3 days now. Hurry the feck up, already !

I assume it was because Rooney was only a 45 minute drive away from Everton whereas United were still in Manchester while Lukaku was in LA. As of now it is 04.47 in LA so I doubt they will be doing much as it is.

Wait until about 11/12 LA time I would imagine.
 
Not sure how the big chances stat was formulated but as I said when we were pursuing Morata if our new striker does better than Zlatan did we'll be in business

Defensive? You said that they look completely different... only thing they have in common is both being black? You said it was just like looking at two white people who look completely different and saying they look alike.

However you backtrack now, if those comments are not bringing race into it... what is?
 
Stormzy himself says he thinks they look alike. The picture of Stormzy in United gear has fooled many on Twitter. The newspaper has posted it thinking it is Lukaku. That doesn't happen if they look absolutely nothing alike.
He even calls himself 'the grime scene's Lukaku' in one of his songs

Seriously its sickening, infuriating and frustrating. Especially with how long we are taking to get transfers done considering the publicly professed need for them by our manager.
