We won't sign anyone else this window, you can see it coming a mile off.
We will pay for it as well i feel.
 
Well it was reported at the end of last season we were interested in Clyne and nothing ever materialised and we moved on to other targets and thankfully bought Darmian. Pedro rumours started weeks ago, with a deal all done and dusted with the player - we just need to sort a deal with his club.

Protracted.
 
He better have a bloody good explanation and never, ever moan about us not having pace or creativity all season.
He'll say he's happy with the squad and how everyone is playing at the moment, but when we hit a rough patch, which i imagine will happen, he'll be complaining.
 
We took ages with just interest and now it's reduced to this.
Reminds me of the Hazard deal... we were told a deal was close, we were going to sign him, he'd chosen United, then Chelsea win the CL and he signs for them.
If i remember rightly, reports then started emerging that his agent wanted a huge fee and we weren't prepared to pay it, but Chelsea were more than happy too, and look where it got them.
 
Go F Urselfs Barca. They never pay the quoted amount and hound players to join him. But we have to? Couldn't care less about Pedro. If he was keen on LVG and his ideology, he should have fought for the move. He is blindly going to the highest bidder, with less regard for the style of football the team is going to play.
 
We should take a gamble and pay whatever it takes for griezzman. Or try for a isco exchange maybe.

If we don't want an out and out winger then there are more options.
 
Yesterday or the day before the press were reporting that LvG had told Ed to get his shit together and just pay the money... Now he's the one pulling out of the deal?

The press know feck all.

I think LVG is satisfied with Memphis and Mata being first choice, maybe he's after a #10 or ST. Question is if Mata does get injured or needs resting who do we play on the RW, Young.. Januzaj.. Lingaard?

Let's not paint the picture that we are playing fast, attacking, expansive football.
 
Would be quite a screw up if we end up ain't no one else and, very likely, just selling DDG. This one actually looks like bad, a tap-in of a transfer somehow bungled

How can you possibly blame barca for this ?

22m for pedro is a steal and a half considering we made 44m of the player he's coming in to replace. If lvg doesn't want him or we haggled for to long then we have no one to blame but ourselves. We may have other targets but lets see.
 
Could be a huge loss for us and win for Chelsea. We severely lack someone like him in our squad and we're chasing them, and they're champions.
 
If true, this whole saga is quite incredible. Seemingly, van Gaal has lost patience trying to haggle a deal with Barcelona, even though they were quite clear about the price they were willing to accept from the beginning. Meanwhile, Real Madrid are doing the same thing to us for De Gea and van Gaal is losing patience with them for employing the very same negotiation tactics. The hypocrisy and stupidity of that is unreal.

Hopefully this maybe means we have an alternative who we are confident of signing. I seriously can't see it though.
 
From the link posted above:

From one source: "Understand it's absolutely not the case that Pedro has chosen Chelsea over United."

That would suggest United pulled the plug.

United must have an alternative. Woodward stressed in his MUTV interview last month the importance of having a number of transfer options for each position, so you would think United are about to go from someone else. Maybe someone better.

For everyone saying it is an almighty cockup - it doesn't seem that way. If we did want him 100%, then I cannot believe a few million would have made much of a difference.

I'm not putting any stock in the Mueller stories - but there has to be someone out there that we are confident of signing.
 
They are spinning lies, Woody was in Barca on Monday. We clearly wanted to tie up a deal. LVG said he wanted Pedro last week

If everyone wanted him, then I don't believe it would have stalled over a few million, or that we didn't want pay up front.
 
I'd absolutely love it if we bought a left footed right winger who had a belting shot on them (Bale). Watching Depay cut in last night was so exciting, imagine having that on both wings.
 
So after selling Di Maria and reducing the wage bill by all those millions we pulled out because of 5m Euros. Glazernomics?

Probably true. Maybe he just preferred Chelsea either way. We don't know when Chelsea's interest started. Either way we need to react pronto as we're playing catch up as it is.
