So that’s two players apparently ruled out. Ah well, we’re still getting Savic, Maguire and Eriksen if we believe the positive tweets as much as the negative ones
Yup just a few days ago they were reporting we are about to bid for him.
Exactly. They are definitely tier 1 reliability.Both of those articles could be correct to be fair.
So sky news article about Bruno states he isn't a priority signing for the club. Which midfielder is then? Doesn't look good with the Maguire deal either. Full meltdown starting with 2 weeks today and the window closes.
Also says the club haven't decided which players they're willing to sell yet
It's either complete bullshit or we are just a rudderless ship under Woodward.
Woodward's staycation is going well then.

Think it will be Maguire in the last week and we will be done.
Maybe we will also get desperate and take Bale on loan on deadline day.
Not a lot of time to prevent it from be a disappointing summer (again) really. No overhaul and still stuck with deadwood. A lot on the shoulders of the younger players at this rate.
Is it laughable if we go into the season with a weaker midfield. Never thought we'd let Herrera leave and not replace him, that's not me saying we should have given in to his laughable demands though.
Laughable post.
You think Herrera was worth what he was asking for? the money and contract demands were a joke.
Got ‘em.
Going by your post you seemed to love the word ‘laughable’ so thought I’d make it three in a row.
I know it’s early in the morning but come on, man.
We'll probably have McTominay as Herrera's "replacement" and either Longstaff or Garner as Fellaini's "replacement".Is it laughable if we go into the season with a weaker midfield.

They sold Ronaldo and bought me as a replacement!Almost a full month since we signed bissaka and thought things were looking efficient. I can't imagine what would be happening at Madrid if they had signed 1 full back this summer, just one year after winning 3 champions leagues and nowhere near as desperate as us to rebuild. We're a soft touch as fans.
Actually last summer it was Fred (£47m) and Dalot (£19m) for a total of £66m. This summer it's AWB (£45m) and James (£15m) for a total of £60m. Even less! Looks like the Glazers can afford a £6m house now!70m spent last summer, 70m spent so far this summer.....
It's ridiculous, a shortened transfer window don't help either but I'm glad the fiasco can end soon rather than drag out.
We need to sell if we buy someone like SMS. We have not sold anyone yet.Is this another way of Raiola putting pressure on us or what? Why can't we just add quality to the squad, damn...
Why though? We lost both Fellaini and Herrera. We need to be replacing Matic as he is just not good enough anymore.We need to sell if we buy someone like SMS. We have not sold anyone yet.

That Madrid side is as bad as ours and are now suffering from years if undervestment. I don't know why you're using them as an example.
McTominay will play more of a role and it's clear the management rate Pereira. SMS is not a Matic replacement.Why though? We lost both Fellaini and Herrera. We need to be replacing Matic as he is just not good enough anymore.
Selling our best CM right now is crazy to me, unless we sign at least another top level midfielder.
disappointing
this was the one I allowed myself to get excited about - Mata/Lingard ain't gonna cut it in midfield when Pogba isnt on it
I'm calling it now.
The players will start getting ruled out by the papers via Woodward briefing over the next week, until we're literally down to Maguire. And if Lukaku stays, Maguire doesnt come. So chances are we go into the new season with James and AWB. Pogba will be sold but way too late for us to replace him and it will all be done deliberately so the Glazers can pocket the money.
