Honestly, we get these same complaints almost every summer, regardless of how early or late we end up doing business. the reality is that sometimes we sign players early in the window, sometimes in the middle, and sometimes late. Also reality is that other clubs always have and always will sign players, some will be before we sign ours, some will be after.

Do you think it's just coincidence that Madrid are always after him or reports of him leaving? For Madrid to always be after him they must be getting some positive feedback of him or his agent it's common sense. There not going to chase him for all this time m if he didn't or doesn't want to join them
Very different characteristics, attributes they rely on and conditioning.
It's like pointing at Barthez/Valdes/Bravo as an example of keeper longevity when the likes of Buffon go on forever. E.g. I can guarantee you De Gea will go on for long ala Buffon/Cech while Navas will turn to shit in his early 30s.
Ronaldo as a 9 can bang them in for fun for years to come. You probably don't want him out wide for much longer though, clearly.
Finally they have a proper manager in charge, not a puppet. Good for Zidane to stand up to the powers that be.
(I'll give him 'til Xmas)
Yeah and we've been linked with Bale literally since the year he went to Real Madrid. Are we to take that seriously as well? De Gea is one of the world's best and Spanish, it's pretty much expected that he'll be linked with Real Madrid until he's like 35.
Yes it's the best, comfortably. Not winning the league next season would be a huge failure.
Because Arsenal are Citys feeder club?
Hats off to Zidane. He is managing the egos of players and suits alike splendidly. E.g. "If Morata leaves I need a replacement". No Yes/No, X or Y price, sell him if you will but if we are found wanting later it's on you. Suddenly they aren't that keen on selling him
City should go for Clyne at RB
There have already been news reports regarding him specifically that Zidane doesn't want him sold.But not Alvaro?
Either real propaganda designed to lower his price or theyre going all in for mbappe.
In the same fashion as Madrid and De Gea - I have decided to 'cool my interest' in buying a brand new Aston Martin DB9 (that I offered the dealer £50 for) and stick with my reliable Renault Clio.
Clearly I could easily have bought the Aston Martin if I'd really wanted to...

Oh my bad I was just making the point we struggle immensely with transfers
No idea, their track record says no of course but all the signs show that they're willing to spend big this window. I would be okay-ish with us spending between £50m-£60m on a CB that really improves our defense since it's been our weak point for seveal years, but only if we are still able to get our other main targets.
£75m though, we should walk away from that without even considering it, ffs.
Varela?
Would be a world record for a defender...for van Dijk...bit OTT
Poor De Gea now that Madrid doesn't want him. Now he has to stick his ass in Manchester
Funny but Navas is a good keeper.
I think he means Veron.
They are just not going for De Gea. For now at least. Mbappe would be more linked to Morata. If Mbappe arrives Morata leaves, if they leave the bap for next Summer then they have to keep Morata of Zidane won't be happy. I don't expect any of these three to move tbh unless we do pay the ridiculous sums bandied about (they won't lower, don't want/need to sell).
And a renault clio is a perfectly good car. Just not AS good.
Nothing to do with United not bowing to the presence of Real or perhaps Dave telling them no. Think if the transfer doesn't happen, it's one of those but Real will just want to save face. They can't have people thinking a club wont bend over for them or a player would snub them.
All good we misunderstood each other
Villarreal have signed Ruben Semedo from Sporting CP.
Navas is no Renault Clio, more like a Mercedes S class AMG, while DDG is a Pagani Huayra with the optional ceramic brake pack and carbon fibre cupholders.
Obviously bs but rumours rife on twitter Romaldo to leave Real and join us for €157m.
Would of had him back when he was in his late 20s. But now this is fecking stupid.
Yeah - until he sticks the nut on you
Well I always liked him as a player and I always felt people weren't giving him enough credit as a manager.
Looks like it bumper new contract time at real again
Not to my knowledge.
Oh, didn't know that. It seems a bit silly then to sign him since they already have Sane at LWF.
