I watched De Brun's latest video. Virtually no transfer news, says we are 'looking' for a right winger but no progress with anyone. Says we want Sandro and he thinks it will happen with Darmian going the other way. Also says we want Blind to leave and Smalling. Says Mourinho only has 3 unsellable players (but that he doesn't know who they are) and United would consider offers for everyone else in the squad.

Most of the video was about how bad things are behind the scenes. He says Mourinho and Woodward don't have a good relationship and Mourinho is angry again about the lack of progress with both sales and purchases. He also says Mourinho has a bad relationship with a lot of players and because of this, and our continually poor recruitment, that we will have a bad season and Mourinho will be gone by January.

It's not worth watching. The only interesting claim was that United want Smalling to leave which sounds insane to me considering he is our best centre back. I know a lot of people think he's a bullshitter but he's gotten a decent amount of things right before imo.
I actually called this!
He has nothing to bluff off of, he can't add a new wrinkle to a known story so he uses the lack of stories as the story itself.
I'm just surprised he didn't throw Toby name out as a hail Mary just to fill some air time
 
About the claim that Smalling could be leaving :



Looks like he has been told that he's safe or he looks pretty confident of his chances. I would rather we sell Jones and/or Rojo before we sell Smalling.
Also this :



:lol:
As long as He doesn't forget how to defend We're good.
 
People still believe Pleb de Bruyn? :lol:

Things do seem slow for us right now but it's the same for everyone, compared to our 2 signings (in Fred and Dalot) how many clubs in and around us have made more than two? We won't see a lot of activity until WC is finished, Ronaldo transfer will have a domino effect on the market and I reckon that'll speed things up.

Although I am not sure what to expect with us. I'm just hoping we can wrap Alex Sandro up. Tuchel isn't impressed with PSG fullbacks and I'd hate for them to gazump us on Sandro.
 
Can' post links yet, but Get French Football News just posted:

Gianluca di Marzio's report on Jean-Michaël Seri appears to be flawed: he claims that the player is waiting for a visa so that he can enter England & join Fulham, but reliable French sources indicate that he has been there already since the weekend, in London.

I would guess this is more of translation thing and Di Marzio means that Seri is just waiting on a work permit before the move is signed, sealed and delivered. He wouldn't need a visa to enter England. Yet, anyway.

He needs a visa to work, not to just come here and agree terms, that's all it is.
 
Insane in what way, cheap?
I'd say it's pretty insane to spend nearly £70m on a player who won't even walk straight into the team. Who are they going to bench, Sané or Sterling? Two of their best players last season. And will any of these attacking players be happy being rotated all the time? Nevermind they already have Bernardo who cost a shit load and struggled to get games.

Also seems strange for Mahrez to so desperately want the move. Surely he could go to a number of top teams and be a nailed on starter every match.

I mean, he's been looking for a move to a top side for a few years and no-one seems to have bid other than City. Can't blame him for joining them if the only alternative is waiting at Leicester.

There is a RW spot open at a top team in Manchester.

Mahrez could walk into the RW spot at any of United, Chelsea, Spurs or Arsenal and play every game. City are really the last place I'd go if I were him.

But then I suppose no other club is willing to spend £70m on him so it's his only option.

I'm surprised he doesn't mention "the Glazers refusing to spend the money yet again like he always does every summer.
 


"This evening Real Madrid will agree his transfer to Juventus for 100 million € at Cristiano Ronaldo's request."
 
Watched the periscope. People who are already worried are not going to want to hear it.

Not sure I buy his Smalling talk, Jose wants him gone? played him over any other CB last year and judging by Smallings social media he isn't leaving. Pilib just seems to be telling some fans what they want to here on that one.
