I hope we haven't leaked this out to make up for the Pedro transfer.
Sadio Mané

We've briefed the media, there's a good chance it's happening now.
I don't think he ever plays on the right so I have no idea where he fits. Pedro was so much better.
Feel sorry for the lad if we get him. Especially if he takes a while to get going.
He was linked with Bayern earlier in the summer.

Still has a release clause and supports United
Voted? You have polls for these?
lol at Sky and MEN contradicting each other.One said we already bid for him last week.One said we're "considering" to approach about him.Yeah right.
This can't a true story then, because it isn't breaking news from Sky's SKY SOURCES.
Be a good signing this, fcuk Pedro lads he didn't want to come.
It was evident that it was a joke
This dude is lightening quick. Doubt Koeman will be too happy with losing him.
You know what? I'm starting to think we were stalling the Pedro move to see what's happening with Mane. I don't know if I should laugh or cry.
Mufc: We need to bid for Kane
Secretary: ok ill type it out
(puts M instead of K)
Secretary: ok bid submitted
Mufc: Great.
2 weeks later...

Quick everyone to the redcafe goes into meltdown thread!
Poll added.
It was a typically crass Paddy Power publicity stunt. They polled 100 American women on the most attractive and ugly PL players.
If we did actually bid for Mane last week it makes sense that Pedro was never followed up and allowed to drag on for so long.
I like him. He did well for my fantasy team last season anyway

Someone from the club has briefed the media regarding this. No one in the media had a clue regarding this despite us lodging a bid for him last week. Could he be why we decided not to go for Pedro?
The poll adder should at least cast their vote...
Poor Southampton. Looks a very good player though and would have him here.
I remember there was some poll or something from a website where they asked a load of women who they think is the sexiest player in the league.

This makes me feel Sadio.
I need to get hit by a brick. He's decent to be fair but it feels underwhelming after the whole Pedro shenanigans.

He's bang average.
What a bizarre day. It will be a bizarre week or 2 too.
Anyway is he a winger. Where does he play, I mean in which position?

Has he got a release clause?!
We can bid a quid less

Wouldn't Berahino be a better option anyway ?
This doesn't make feckin sense.

No doubt if Southampton wanted, say, £15m Woodward would bid £14,995,000 and negotiate it right to the last minute of the window then pay £20m.
Well being completely honest here - did not see this coming, assuming this is true of course. I've only really watched one game of Soton when they didn't play us and that coincidently was the game where he scored the fastest hatrick in PL. Must have been in TV for me to watch it.
Clearly he'd be a downgrade on Pedro. No point beating around the bush. I know I haven't watched him a lot but I seriously doubt he's Pedro's level.
He definitely has some pace and I do remember that he made some glorious chances for Pelle.
I'd feel sorry for Southampton if we raid them again.
If we do get him I'd have to keep my opinion to myself for a while - could be a shrewd one.
Needless to say, it's a very interesting leak.

Why on earth would we sign him.
Wouldn't he have to bugger off to the African Cup of Nations in January?
Think of our fecking counter attacks with Shaw, Darmian, Memphis and Mane though 
As the great man said himself 'Then, maybe comes a surprise'...
Well. Suuurrrrppprrrise.
Well. Suuurrrrppprrrise.
Primarily played on the left for Southampton last season, also played some games on the right and as a second striker.
No.
He played on the right when he scored the fastest PL hatrick ever.
Odd one, but on current form I reckon he would offer more than Roo...
Should have just signed Benteke.

Good cover for out wide and the striker position, searing pace.Someone from the club has briefed the media regarding this. No one in the media had a clue regarding this despite us lodging a bid for him last week. Could he be why we decided not to go for Pedro?
As a package you could argue he's a better option than Pedro
It would tie into the rumour that alternative transfer targets have become available allowing LVG to halt the persuit of Pedro
