As exciting as silly season is fellow muppets, let's not forget that a lot of our summer transfer work came right out of the blue, Lukaku especially.

Yes, good point.
By the way, I love it over here. Not close to as much bitching and moaning of the other forums. Long live the muppets.
Not Gladbach or Leipzig, Oxford is going back to West Ham first.
Please no, don't another fading superstar on astronomical wages and an even more astronomical ego.It's happening.
He was great first time around, it should be left at that.
Think what Wenger said is correct. Players will see out their contracts and will leave on free. Best players cant leave for less than 100m and this bubble is going to burst at some point. Only the oil funded clubs can afford this type of money every year means less options for players.
How has been this season? Would he still do the job?
If we end up signing Ozil in January, will he be eligible to play in Champions League this season ?
(I remember David Luiz played in Europa League and then he signed for Chelsea and played in Champions League in same season).
Correct me if I am mistaken ...

Yes he will be able to.
The Ronaldo story is boring. I hope we aren't linked again.
The interesting part would be Madrid's search for new galacticos.

Ronaldo is 33 next Feb, ship to Manchester sailed far ago.
Hazard has the talent to play for Real Madrid but I don't think he has the bottle honestly.

You hope?? Whole of January we will be linked with Ronaldo, Bale, and every other big name players, and half of Caf will be over the moon happy. 100 mil for 32 yrs old no matter who he is? After they took him for 80?! And not to mention him spending his best years there. He can stay there forever and be their slave. "He will win us PL", f**k he will. And Bale will too, aha, of course. He can't stay fit in Spain, let alone in England. God, I hate those tweets, as much as I love transfer muppet time. But I guess press has to make living somehow, and best thing for it is to link us with everbody.
Ronaldo won't come to United because of Mourinho for sure. He should go to PSG.

Counting to ten helps with my anger issues, that or alcohol.
I wouldn't go near Ronaldo or Bale.
Restraining order?
Not anger, frustration. Tiredness. Wish to build great young team, not to have home for eldery players. Desire to have a team of players, not big ego names with huuge wages. And a bit of hunger. Haven't eaten anything all day.
If true, will be poetic. Arrived as a mercenary, leaves as a mercenary.
That’s not why Mbappe was worth so much. He’s clearly going to be an absolute world beater one day, he’s an investment. Hazard is brilliant but he’s not worth £150mn.
Sad truth is we buy one of them I wouldn't be able to set my fot at Old Trafford.
What rubbish. He didn't have a preference. He had a choice between 2 top clubs. He picked one that paid more. That is not being a mercenary.
And rejecting a big offer from Chelsea to go play for Madrid isn't being a mercenary either.
Lingard is in a far better team than Mahrez. Lingard has done exceptional but we shouldn't get too carried away. Logically, Mahrez is the better player.
Wow, time for ANOTHER new contract? Well I suppose Messi has just recently renewed, so I guess the timing fits.
Let me guess, Ronaldo again wants out of Madrid. 
Well, if everyone and their father (Florentino) in Real Madrid praise him as the best player in the world and better than Messi, then it's just logical that the guy wants to be paid at least as much as Leo.
You can't pretend to profit on someone performance/marketing wise with a lower contract than the guy you insist its worse than him
Carrick and Fellaini will both go, Carrick will probably retire as he's 36 and had health problems of late, whilst Fellaini all the messages seem to be that he's got massive money on the table from China. Might even go in January in order to recoup a bit of money, though I suspect Mourinho would have something to say about that.
I highly doubt United will sign SMS & Jorginho though even if 2+ midfielders go, that's probably ~£125M on two CM's and there are other areas of the team to strengthen.
Pereira still needs to be reintegrated. Think we’ll only need one.
def no to Ronaldo.
PSG would snap him up though. and he'd do well in that league for a few seasons.

I wouldn’t say no to Ronaldo at a reasonable price. Also where would he play at PSG?
Ronaldo , Neymar and Cavani? Too many egos in there.
No room for Ronaldo at PSG.
I could see him at United next season though.

Hunter says on the podcast that Ronaldo doesn't want to live in the Manchester climate again.
If Manchester had a Mediterranean climate he'd sign tomorrow

As much of a fan I am of Ronaldo, I don't want him at United. 89m for someone whose 32 and major wages would be absolutely stupid. He's better off retiring at Real or moving to MLS in a few years.
I was not a fan of giving Zlatan a contract as well after he broke his leg. No doubt he's Zlatan but to pay someone 200k to offer nothing in the first half of the season and possibly in the next half of the season is just pure dumb management. It's a joke that Lukaku is on 250k and Zlatan is on 200k and our strikers are struggling to score.

If Manchester had Mediterranean climate there would be very little reason for most continental players to go to Spain surely!
That is literally the definition of a mercenary.
Ronaldo is actually started to get on my nerves recently, all his drama about contract and stuff. Let him be at Real Madrid, don't fecking buy himLet me guess, Ronaldo again wants out of Madrid.
