Expect this to be part of a "players United failed to attract" piece once the window shuts.
Thomas Müller
- Thread starter FC Ronaldo
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss Amad saving our blushes in a win against Southampton as well as our now annual loss at home to Brighton. They discuss Amorim's post-match comments, revisit how mid-table we may or may not be, and discuss some transfer news.

I don't see it as Bayern giving a player power. The player is part of the furniture at Bayern. He's not trying to make trouble for the club; he is the club, or at least a great part of its self-image. Müller to United isn't like the Rooney to City business, where the interests of the club and player were at odds. It's more like if some club had wanted to buy Bobby Charlton in 1969.
I think the bit you are missing is that the person you are speaking to is a Bayern fan.
Something along the lines of
Look at how united should be lining up:
..........................Lloris..........................
.....ramos......hummles...ottamendi...
Alves.......Pogba.........Vidal..........Bale
...........Ronaldo....Kane.....Muller........
(ignoring the fact we were never going to spend the £500m or so that lot would cost)
Where does Gaitan fit in?
Probably a squad player with Handanovich, stones, di sicglio, carvahllo, draxler and lorente
As Leno, laporte, carvajal, Verratti, sneidjer, pedro and Lacazette will be on the bench...
There is probably even more players papers / agents etc have linked us with but that will do for now
This one is definitely not gonna happen.
Especially as it has come via an Express story. The same journo that live on MuTv said that Bale was a done deal. It's bullshit.
Can't see Bayern allowing Muller to leave, especially after allowing fan favorite Schweinsteiger to leave. It's probable that Muller wants a better deal, and he's probably got wind of the kind of money United would be willing to offer him to switch to old trafford. If United are desperate to sign a world class striker, there'll be some serious money involved.
It's a very extreme and hypothetical scenario, which has nothing to do with the reality anyway. Pep clearly doesn't want Müller gone, he wants him to stay and starts him all the time. The whole 'Pep would sell Müller for the right price, but the club doesn't allow it' thing is utter nonsense. What's Pep going to do with all the money? We could spend a lot more this summer anyway if we wanted to, but there's no player available that would improve us. We'd just lose a fantastic player and regular starter and would weaken ourselves significantly. It makes zero fecking sense, even if Pep didn't rate Müller and had full control over transfers.
We obviously just bid for him, possibly a few times already but Bayern are clearly not going to accept any deal for him. Interest from us and Muller isn't exactly guaranteed a starting spot, however we have no chance.
Or some shitty English newspaper just made up a story out of nowhere to sell a few more copies. As if Müller had any connections to the Express in England and would use them to put pressure on Bayern for a new contract while no German newspaper takes the rumour seriously enough to even pick it up on their website, let alone in print.
I would make a Muller yoghurt joke at this point but I have not read the previous few pages and I am sure some cnut has beaten me to it already.
It's Muller time!
I for one believe every rumour I read
I for one believe every rumour I read
And after muller we want lewandowski as well
Possibly. But I can see Manchester United being a temptation for Muller. He'd be the star striker, and be much better off financially. Bayern would not allow Muller to leave, and so he'd have to tread carefully how he expressed any possible interest in joining United.
Cant believe people bought this. Thomas muller is like bayern ryan giggs, and they're winning everything with him. Why on earth would he wants a move to united? We're not even guaranteed top 4th

Why can't you just accept this is happening?
Because it's already driving me nuts that Bayern and United play at the same time almost every weekend and I can't watch enough of Basti
. I have to convince myself that I won't miss out on watching Müller every week as well. It can't be, it can't be true The thing is, the bundesliga is just not competitive at the moment because Bayern are so superior. Each season is all about how many points Bayern will win the league by. And so for the Bayern players the season is all about taking on the Spanish teams in the champions league. Interest from the top Spanish and English clubs will tempt Bayern players I think. And probably why Guardiola may leave at the end of the season.
It isn't, don't worry. It's the Sunday Express. The amount of shit in the Express is unparalleled.Because it's already driving me nuts that Bayern and United play at the same time almost every weekend and I can't watch enough of Basti
. Not the slighest bit. But thanks Cant believe people bought this. Thomas muller is like bayern ryan giggs, and they're winning everything with him. Why on earth would he wants a move to united? We're not even guaranteed top 4th
Just let us have him.
Bayern would win the Bundesliga even if they started every game with 10 men. You don't even need to replace him really. Tea lady would do.
Let him come to a league with a proper challenge.

Breakin news! A friend of Neuer's told a malaysian newspaper that Neuer wants to go to join Liverpool!.
Jesus christ, the Express. Bet they got a mole in our locker.

Even the king of muppets has given up.
More chance of me waking up tomorrow with a twelve inch cock hanging between my legs than us signing Muller.
Exactly. Throw enough money to turn the players and the clubs head. His departure wouldn't stop Bayern from winning their league and his arrival would make this one even more competitive.
Do it Woodman!
And then you realise it's not attached to you
Has anyone linked United to Messi yet? I mean if Muller is linked, every chance Messi/Neymar should also be in radar. I know that my next phone won't have a 10,000 mAh battery, and I also know Muller isn't going anywhere.
Van Gaal doesn't seem to give him more than 30 minutes anyway so I reckon you are not missing much.Because it's already driving me nuts that Bayern and United play at the same time almost every weekend and I can't watch enough of Basti
He's clearly having fun with the lot though. One might say, he finally feels at home...

Lol, we're not signing Muller!
Looks more like he's on vacation. That's when you usually make pictures like that all the time with new people you've just met.
Glad to see he's moved on so quickly, and looks like he's happy to as well.
Or as some might put it, the excitement to play in a league without a foregone result.He is enjoying the silence...
basically are not signing any more players, except perhaps Pedro but that's been done to death and gone a bit quiet so the papers have to make shit up to keep our transfer window interesting
This can happen. I believe...
This is never going to happen, there would be riots in Munich. I wonder how some people believe this. He may be interested, but Bayern will never sell at least not this summer.
