This is like one of those cheap Horror films: Return of the Gaitan or somethin'.
Benteke to be our 2nd most expensive signing ever? Don't see it somehow. Especially after refusing to pay £25m for Schneiderlin.
Hunter is the same guy who proclaimed that we have agreed terms with Thiago and only a fee to be agreed with Barca is left. He was absolutely certain about this and did the exact same like Ramos before, showing up at SSN and other news outlets. Thiago goes and signs for Bayern.
Now he claims a similar thing or about similar thing with Ramos. Even assuming that he was briefed by Ramos' brother, it could easily be that he was used as a patsy by Ramos camp to stir things up with Madrid. Everyone then quotes Graham and runs with it. Even assuming that Ramos truly wants to join United, Graham here has just ticked all the boxes in terms of options of what might happen, thus he gets to walk away saying it just didn't pan out or if it goes through, claim he always knew it was the case.
He didn't add anything new to what the guy asked, he could have just said he has got nothing new that what is already reported. I am not asking him to make stuff up, but he was just covering all the bases there. That is how people create an image of being "Reliable".
Anyways, that is how I see it.
Does that mean Pogba is going nowhere, otherwise they will have lost most of their midfield.Great replacement for Schweini if that's true.
Pogba is Barca bound IMO, so he'll definitely stay at Juve for another year.Does that mean Pogba is going nowhere, otherwise they will have lost most of their midfield.
Birmingham Mail are reliable, looks like we have serious interest in Benteke.
He didn't claim anything was set in stone with Thiago. But Thiago's father even confirmed that we were in talks with Barca and Thiago. People read what they want to see in my opinion.

Kristof Terreur@HLNinEngeland
@JanAageFjortoft @oisinmusic His agent has been denying United for a time now. No contact.
Any chance that this is Villa trying to put pressure on Liverpool to pay the clause?
That's about Lewandowski..
What an idiot, replying to that one about headlines just makes it look like he's backing up the point with "his" agent.Actually it's not, at least not Kristofs tweet, but i can see why you'd think that given the tweet he replied to
Sarcasm ? or for real? i cant tell
Bayern in advanced talks with Juventus for Vidal.
Gazetta also reporting the Vidal-news, seems to make the Juventus fans on Twitter nervous.
Although, this tweet just says that Bayern has "knocked on the door at Juventus for Vidal" and that he's attracted the interest of Guardiola, doesn't look like it's rock solid as CdS made it sound like.

Edit: Kristof being the idiot btw not you.
Well that escalated quickly. At least Bayern fans can get excited now, the best thing we got while ''chasing'' Vidal was ChileVision and El Chiringuito TV.
Maybe currently due to being younger but generally definitely not.Well, that's typical Bayern isn't it? They somehow manage to get 15m€ for a player they wouldn't have offered a new contract in 2016 (according to Sportbild today) and manage to get a very similar maybe even better and younger player. Great piece of business from them.
Hopefully in 2 years when Schweinsteiger really begins to decline I hope Herrera can replace him at that level. But jesus, Schneiderlin, Vidal and Herrera would've set us up in MF for the next 5-6 years.

Agree.Of course currently. We are not talking about some peak comparisons but simply how good both players are ATM. Schweinsteiger 2012 > Vidal every year. But both had a mediocre 2014/15 season and Vidal seemed to be getting back to his best (just look at his game vs Real Madrid) where there is a huge question mark about Schweinsteiger and if he's ever going to be the monster he was under Heynckes.
He's talking from their perspective (i suppose). From ours Schweinsteiger is perfect right now.
Are you having buyer's remorse even before a ball is kicked?! Even after our manager saying Basti is the ultimate professional?!
Even after Vidal's DUI incident?!
Isn't it also possible that 3 or 4 years down the line, we could actually go for a better CM down the line and signing a serial winner like Basti is better now?!

So Benteke is on but we aren't interested, good to know all the bases are covered. I think Villa are trying to mush Liverpool along to make a bid.
Gaitan will end up at Spurs I reckon.
Lewandowski would be aces!
Talksport are saying that Benteke is option 2 and that we are still more interested in Cavani, using Di Maria as bait.So Benteke is on but we aren't interested, good to know all the bases are covered. I think Villa are trying to mush Liverpool along to make a bid.

Why would it be sarcasm? As far as I know, they are a reliable local media and it looks like we are interested in Benteke. I wouldn't pay much attention to what any agent says, ever.
