Finally reached imminent.
Means we'll have De Jong and Malacia wrapped up by August at this rate.
So after a month of negotiations we haven’t actually signed a player. Excuses made about every single element not being the club’s fault. And our first potential signing isn’t first choice and our 5th LB in the squad.
Glad we are improving though…
The part where he says the deal is on track is the most important bit I took from that tweet. Delayed a bit but no big deal.Not gonna lie it's worrying seeing Ornstein reporting this because such a strong source
Just a little info on Nani as we could see him in the preseason tour
I'd prefer Tielemans to Eriksen for the 2nd cm spot personally. Think he's a massive talent that has clearly wanted to move to a bigger club for a couple years now. I also personally prefer seeing us targeting players in the 22-25 age bracket than going for players that are either past or coming to the end of their prime. Just too many players around the age of 30 that have burned us for my liking.
Eriksen could be a done deal with player required just to travel for medical and contract signing and that's pretty much it.I'd prefer Tielemans to Eriksen for the 2nd cm spot personally.

Howard and Fab fighting for the back post!
Would have loved him a few seasons ago but he's been shockingly bad recently.
Van der Howe?? Seriously??!Thinking United wants to synchronise and do a banded transfer signing day with all their signings presented together. FdJ, Malachia and one surprise signing (Eriksen? 2nd choice goalie?)
we’ve done this before in 1996 I think with Poborsky, Ole Solsjkaer and Raimond Van Der Howe. Also around 2006 with Nani and Anderson.
Van der gowe (can’t remember Dutch spelling)Van der Howe?? Seriously??!

You make it sound like the club fecked up. The club had done nothing wrong and it’s all on track againDo we ever do things the easy way
If he says it, it's happening. In fact, it already happened in most casesDoes actually have sources then? Or is he just confirming deals that have already been confirmed then?
I'm shocked
Stealing a living, that guy.I am struggling to believe anything written by a man who is called Crook.
I am still desperately hoping we willWas really hoping we'd sign a RB as I'm not convinced at all with Dalot, AWB and Laird as our options there. If fullbacks are as essential to ETH's system as is claimed then it's strange.
Or he was probably not in the list because there was no more space for foreigners? It's about a 25 man squad. Jones was not registered too, as there was no space. Was Jones also a persona non grata?

BTW check the game again vs Sevilla. De Gea was atrocious and in fault for losing against Sevilla. So the decision was wrong.
And finally, again what you are saying it doesn't make sense. We should have accepted anything in the summer too. But we didn't. He asked to leave and we valued a 33 years old keeper on high wages with 10 mil. But your explanation is that he was a prick and a raiolo client. Weird.
