Great.

btw, why should we be expected to believe any of this? :p

We are not but there 1-2 people on there that have proven they have inside information. And certainly they are not worse than some "journalists" quoted in this thread.

As always, until announced, nothing is certain.

In addition to the below, he said that we`ve signed James but will push back the announcement to when he is ready.

IN

  • Sancho deal could be back on. Seems that the Brandt and Hazard signings are seen as Dortmund preparing to let him go. Belief is it would take between £80m-£100m. However, expect to see news come out slowly that we AREN'T interested as Ed is seemingly trying to play a bit of a game to lower the price by flirting with Bale and Griezmann (this already started yesterday with an Ogden ESPN article).

  • AWB deal is on. We've told Meunier we won't be continuing discussions. The AWB deal is quiet a bit further along than reported, and he may now wind up completing first.

  • We are the Premier League team that intends to activate Partey's release clause (pending Pogba confirming he plans to stay. Not sure why him going would stop this but that's what is being said.)

  • Koulibally is almost certainly not happening. Napoli seem utterly disinterested in selling him. Umtiti still the other pipe-dream, but he seems to want to stay at Barca. Harry Maguire is the backup but will be very expensive.

  • We would love to sign De Ligt, but all noise is from his agent trying to drum up money out of Barca. We don't expect him to go anywhere else. We have however said we will meet all demands (which is above Barcas offer and a promise to make him the instant starter).

  • Likewise; we have started to monitor the situation with Luka Jovic at Eintracht Frankfurt. Still expected to join Madrid but we may look to sign him if Lukaku leaves. We wouldn't meet their €100m valuation but instead would look to send players to them on loan (Chong an option) or even offer them a discount on a replacement (not sure who they would want/can afford to he honest).

  • We absolutely would take Bale on loan if he wants it.
OUT

  • Bailly has attracted several offers, but nothing that has met the club valuation.

  • Pogba is believed to be staying

  • De Gea is going this summer. PSG offer is expected any day now.

  • Alexis has an offer from Inter (Juve never reached out formally).

  • Lukaku sale to Inter is also becoming possible, but will be dependant upon a suitable replacement being available (and if Icardi would actually leave). Solksjaer seems to not be arsed at all with him.

Don't believe a word of it.

Could be an idea to offer to give up Zahas sell-on-clause as part of the deal. Would probably be quite tempting for Palace, they probably realize Zaha will go either this summer or the next

Have to hand it to Palace, they are in a great spot holding all the cards.

Really? That's a lot of positives imo, therefore obviously not going to happen :(

Yeah i thought that response was odd. Mostly pleasing. If we did all the other business i'd probably take bale on loan as well.

I thought jovic to real was confirmed so assuming its all nonsense.

I've been following their posts and I believed it at first, now I'm sceptical. They thought Sancho wasn't happening but now says it could be back on from 2 signings BVB made from money from the Pulisic deal?

I also read the comments, this guy/girl hadn't even heard us talk about Bruno Fernandes or Jaio Felix, two players we've very clearly scouted. Hadn't also heard anything about Longstaff, said 'must be something Butt is handling' why would Butt be the one negotiating for first team players?! Hadn't heard anything about the Brazilian Pedro, they said 'another team might be handling it due to his location', do football clubs operate this way regarding transfers from oversea?

Yes because Lukaku is of RVN, RVP, AC, DY, OGS, TS quality. LFOL.
Click to expand...

No, but he has scored a lot more goals than Martial and Rashford in his career. Feed him from the wings with a decent cross and he'll score. Something that hasn't happened in the past season. I'm not saying we shouldn't look for a better player than him, but in my opinion we have more pressing positions to focus on. Young is no Neville, Pereira or Fred aren't Scholes, Keane and others. Mata and Lingard aren't Beckham, Ronaldo or even Nani.
 
I find it interesting to read, so please keep posting it. I'd like to see how much of it comes to pass!
 
That reddit ITK is so, so bad.

I'd never heard of him until two weeks ago and he's already gotten multiple facts wrong, constructed narratives that made zero logical sense, made claims that were proven wrong within a matter of hours, had to completely reverse his position on certain transfers within the space of a few days etc. He's indykaila with a reddit account instead of a twitter.
 
People will believe anything. I bet its a good laugh being one of these 'ITKs'.

Even if true I'm not seeing too much to get excited about.

The names of Sancho, De Ligt, Koulibally, and Jovic, been there make it sound great, but in reality the club expects, James, AWB, Partey, and possibly Bale to be the signings, with some wild goose chase for Maguire again, this and we'll lose De Gea, it's not great.

Can you show what he's gotten wrong? I'd like to learn in my evaluation of him too. I thought he was rated quite highly at least in my mind after he said an announcement of personal terms agreed with James is imminent at 10pm, and he was pretty much right as skysports broke the news the following morning.

Surely to be considered reliable someone should show what he has gotten right.

SSN made it look like a deal was confirmed. There is currently nothing confirmed by either club.
Frankfurt is asking around 100m, real wants (ofcourse) to pay less.
Click to expand...

Frankfurt are just being greedy. How much did they sign Jovic from Benfica? This is no different from an adage which say someone who found a valuable object on the ground and wanted to die (i.e greedy/obsessed) because of it, what should we say about the person from whose hand the valuable object got lost?

He obviously a spoofer, and doing very little to hide it. The thirst for 'news' at this time of year is absolutely insatiable - people will lap up even the most transparently fabricated drivel if it purports to be inside information.
 
I do love reading through this thread :lol:

General pattern :

Tweet : "Man Utd nearing deal with <insert top player name here>"
Reaction : "No chance", "As if, why do people believe that crap", "Not a reliable source" ...

Tweet : "Man Utd nearing deal with <insert unknown/young player here>"
Reaction : "FFS!", "Woody out", "Cant believe we're signing this crap" ...


Not defending journalists but, just because a player signs for another club after a journalist has said we are close to a deal or have an agreement, doesn't mean he was lying.
