I have a bad feeling that Lingard will stay.
I do too, hence the recent appearances and Pereira on the bench.
If I'm being a little overeager about it, it's because United fans tend to be overeager to criticise this club. The point of my Tweets is not only to get everyone caught up but to show that the situations we face tend to be faced by other clubs as well.
In the case of Binks, whilst they may not have gotten a compensation package, they probably could have demanded a higher fee from Bologna. Montreal don't have as much money as Bologna do, so if they were the only suitors at the time, I can see how they wouldn't get as much money off of him.
Upamecano wanted to go to Arsenal last season, but they deemed him too expensive.
More details on Chong getting closer to be loaned out to Werder Bremen:
According to Bild, the progression has come because United have softened on their wage demands to Bremen. The deal can be completed today if all goes well.

Lazio were after S.C. Braga's Paulinho, but they are likely to lose out on him to Wolverhampton Wanderers. Wolves are paying 25 million Euros to secure him, which is much higher than the 15 million that Lazio have offered.
I like the look of this, could be a very good loan for him, and a loan is exactly what he needs right now.
Lazio face competition for Borja Mayoral from Valencia & Fiorentina. Negotiations with Real Madrid have come to a halt as a result.
A bad feeling...wise up ffs he is a decent player not a fecking STD
Hope we go in for him.
Another update on Chong's transfer: apparently the loan length will be one year instead of two.
The agent of Mainz's Jean-Paul Boetius had this to say about his client:
Bild digs into this and finds that the offers are from Leeds, Fulham, Fiorentina, and Sevilla.
He's a decent player for sure, but I'm not sure if he'll necessarily offer much to any of those clubs. He is a nice, versatile option for all of them, at least.

Uh oh
Ricardo Rodriguez will sign with Torino for 4 years. When fit, he'd be a great signing for them.
Agree, but that doesnt mean we should keep Pereira until we are able to sell Lingard.
Pretty sure he only made a 5 min cameo against us in the Europa this season, but is supposedly highly rated. Would be an interesting one for the future.
So it looks like Coutinho will return to Barcelona after Arsenal didn't take up the offer.
It’s ok if Pereira and Mata are gone. The problem was that there were many poor performers on the bench - if we manage to ship out the majority of those, it will already be a much better situation than it is now.
Yet, the best option would be to sell all of them
There's our Sancho alternative right there
We should be keeping Mata over Lingard every single day of the week.
After declaring that he will leave Udinese after the season, Seko Fofana has chosen RC Lens as his next club.
That's an interesting choice. Given how good he has been in Serie A, I expected a bigger club than RC Lens to sign him.

Weston McKennie has been linked to various clubs this summer. Hertha Berlin was one of them and had a strong interest in the player. However, they are unable to find an agreement with Schalke.
I wonder if a Premier League club would go after him. He had a good season with Union Berlin.
You didn't ask me, but -- No. Not at all.
PSG need to win the Champions league or no way can Mbappe or Neymar be considered a success, don't need two €200m odd forwards to win Ligue 1 and the Coupe de France every year, same goes for Ronaldo to Juve, don't need to spend €100m on Ronaldo to wrap up the Serie A title, they already won it 8 years in a row without him.
Would you consider Ruud a failure for us? Similar cases I think given the jump in fees and ability to break goal scoring records. Winning the Chamions league requires luck. It's not a talent thing.
No, just citing that the transfer originally fell through because he did his cruciate before signing fully, was still a great striker after though. One of the best natural finishers I've ever seen. Sometimes that isn't the case like with Shearer R9 and others, never seemed quite the same after. Point is Werner wouldn't want to take that risk and potentially blow his Chelsea career before it started.
Benfica post a "cryptic" Tweet confirming 3 of their new signings...

Waldschmidt is a big coup for Benfica, he’s a big talent. I wouldn’t have expected him to go to Portugal at all.
I meant that Ruud didn't win us a champions league yet he was clearly a success.
Ronaldo, neymar and mbappe may not have won the champions league for their teams but it I'd hard to win so doesn't necessarily reflect how goods signing they were. Ronaldo especially as Juventus are not that great or as good as they were.
Like Ruud played in a team on decline yet still scored ridiculous amounts ronaldo is doing the same.
That's OK, I mean we've shoehorned Mata on the right since we've signed himHe actually plays on the left
To the Dembele thread!
Just get him and Upemecano and we won't have much weakness left in defence
Kicker report that Dortmund are very interested in Real's Reinier.
Everyone thinks he's very talented (me included), but the truth is he's 24 years old and never really played a leading role at Freiburg. Could've seen Gladbach or Leverkusen pick him up, but these or Benfica are ambitious transfers for him.
Freiburg is my local team and he really isn't a big talent.
