For as shite as we are, using our name still works wonders.

Zaha was the first choice but as soon as Palace failed to negotiate removing the sell on clause to United it was always going to be difficult. In my opinion there was no chance of Palace accepting this kind of deal that they have with Pepe. They wanted a large chunk of money paid upfront and Arsenal could not afford that so had to move on.
Arsenal still have awful CB's and medicore fullbacks. The center of their midfield ain't great, either.
As usual they'll probably batter all the weak sides in the league and the early Europa League stages but will be on the end of some drubbings against some of the top sides and will finish no higher than 4th.
Unless they go out and buy 3 defenders or so.

Shame, he was pretty decent for us. Similarly enough Varela had some impressive moments too.
Arsenal having a better window than us 
Get used to it as it's not going to change and only will get worse as our cash stops flowing in due to being unsuccessful on the pitch
Like we did with Lukaku and Juve
Like i said depends if some stories are even true.
This is new low for us. We laughed how they have 40mil "war chest" and look at them now. Shambolic stuffArsenal having a better window than us
Honestly how is he a journalist working for the BBC.
Hopefully that's Ashley just saying give me a little bit more sugar. Lets face it all the bloke cares about is money.
That would be far too sensible
When Arsenal have a better transfer window than you, you know you’re in trouble
We are not after anyone. Brilliant.
its happened we are fecked, what has Ed been doing since May?
Someone smart will sign him and then Stone will post a horribly worded tweet about how we were never in for him.
See where his resolve is next year, they will need to be negotiating with him at that point as he will only have 2 years left, if he flat out tells them he isn't signing with them then he'll be up for sale.
Gives us all a chance to see where he is at with a full season under his belt as well.
Pure economics mate.
Let’s play it out:
1. Can’t get rid of deadweight so no transfer income or wage savings
2. This leaves us with our starting transfer budget only
3. If we overspend the budget from 2 above on below top tier talent is it worth it? I mean, even if we sign Maguire for a record fee, we will still be battling for the fourth place. Have a bad few fixtures and we end 5th/6th anyway after significant outlay.
So may as well not spend over our budget.
What? Great time to find your balls, Ashley. Where were they when you were selling your best players weeks ago?
Makes it a lot easier to appear defiant when nobody is willing to pay the asking price
The defence looks good if we get Maguire but not buying a single midfielder after we've lost two doesnt make any sense. And we need to buy a striker too if Lukaku goes. Three ins and one out in 11 days is doable.
I can't wait for our sponsorship deals to dry up and our revenue drop.
Apart from AWB this window has been a complete disaster and people are yet again laughing at us and how we do business. The lack of incomings and outgoings which we were promised hasn't happened and the gap will only get bigger. I fear Ole won't last the season and don't let the pre-season form fool you, with basically the same squad as last season were we were hammered by the likes of West ham and Everton then beaten by Huddersfield and Cardiff, let that sink in
Considering people keep saying that "lukaku going will free up funds for more attackers". I think a strong argument could be made that any maguire deal in the range of 80-90m may be held up by needing to sell lukaku first.
People will have you believe our youngsters will step up, they aren't getting more than a sniff of action I'd bet. It will be the same shit different season and then Pogba will leave next summer.
I'd play him at centre-back ahead of Mustafi.
Still a bit of time left but it’s very hard not to feel depressed at the sheer lack of drive and ambition shown at the club. If, and it’s a big if, major faith is shown in the young players then this season could be ok however I suspect they won’t get a sniff and it’ll be Mata, Lingard etc playing consistently. Horrible scenes.
I feel like if the Maguire deal dies just before the deadline, Alderweireld could be the fellaini deal of this window. Not in terms of skills, i mean that we could possibly sign him for a higher transfer fee after his clause expires. Simply because Woodward needs another signing before deadline.
United fans appear to have become like a bunch of hysterical teenage girls.
All the moaning in the world won’t change the makeup of the squad come the season.
Why are you doing it to yourselves? We are not the footballing power we once were and it’s going to be a number of years if we are ever to attain it again.
Looks like this year we are going to have to get behind the kids and see what is what come seasons end. Why don’t we all relax and try to enjoy it.

Nah we will offer Rojo a new deal.
Translation? The feck is that supposed to mean? Looms like he had a strike while typing that.
