What are fabinho and Dembele's partners following. Bloody hell sometimes I miss the days when the first you knew about a signing was seeing a picture of him with a scarf above his head. ( yet im still here checking tweets)
Transfer Tweets - Summer 2017 | Keep it on topic
- Thread starter Damien
- Start date
Genuinely more reliable than 90% of those so called journalists.
And why do you think manolas is any better?
That's not him ffs. Hesham handed the list to him outside our training ground.
Prospective players' partners have been the most reliable source of information for a good few summer's now.
She followed it tonight.
Maybe Klopp is asleep at the wheel on this one dreaming of VVD?
Party pooper!
Tonight? Sooo, it is official tomorrow? Wednesday?
Yeah tonight. Her and Morata have spent the whole day on a yacht off the balearic islands so it could only mean that something happened. Or she's a massive troll. lol
The good old "spouse likes smth in Instagram" routine 
BC I know he was at Ajax but couldn't remember if it was a loan or some other type of arrangement. Thanks for the dick comment tho.
Nainggolan would be brilliant.
He has good relationship with Pep since Barca and knows his system quite well, has nothing to do with Pep being successful or not.
He did bugger all for Sunderland, who would want him?
I would love it if we signed Nainggolan, fecking love it!

This Hesham fella is on the banned list. Twice even
Not really a CDM so have no idea why we're being linked to him, would say he's more of a b2b, often played #10 for Roma so deffo not a CDM.

Seems we may need to add him a third time.

Ah sorry I didn't see. Still doesn't change the fact that she actually followed United on Instagram though
You're welcome
Strength, positioning, reading of the game, organisation and leadership possibilities. He would be if it were up to me probably on the second tier of centre backs we should consider. Mustafi and Gabriel wouldnt be on the radar at all. And what did they pay for Mustafi 35m odd, thats probabloy more like 45m this summer, ridiculous fee for a defender that had one decent not even good season for Valencia, awful business. Would you not think Manolas would be a better partner for Koscielny than Mustafi, Gabriel or Mertersacker? I know the grass isnt always greener and we can overhype foreign players and Im not lauding him as a brilliant world star or anything but he has performed to a good level for several years now and Koscielny is about the only Arsenal centre back that has done too in well over a decade, that is really poor for a side that has played champions league football every season
IMO he would be great next to pogba, in front of a defensive mid. Can be a box to box, though played a more attacking role almost like how pogba does for us for Roma last season. All action midfielder type, though almost no chance that he'll come.
He's a b2b. Signing him = Herrera as DM.
Signing Matic + Nanggolan = Herrera in the bench.
So english low tier journo's pushing Matic and saying no interest in fabinho.
Bouhafsi and Di Marzio both confirm ongoing talks for Fabinho and Di Marzio claims we've bid
No update at all from Simon stone on Matic, but he still thinks no interest in fabinho.
I think we are either signing both, or the english media is being led down the "michael keane" dead end again.
Man Utd, Dortmund and Sunderland? Had a few decent moments under Moyes but has done feck all since then.
And Ake did well at Watford and Bournemouth.
Would Pogba furthest forward with Nainggolan and Herrera behind him sharing defensive duties be viable? Sounds like Nainggolan typically plays a little further forward but from the little I have seen of him he seems to have the energy and steel to play that role.
It would be the usual 433 we're used to. Herrera would drop into the Carrick role with Naingolan taking his position at RCM with Pogba at LCM.
Forget about Nainggolan, he just wants a new contract from Roma.
Theyre entirely different players. Also, if it was one or the other, it's a no brainer.
I'd suggest that we'd play a three with Naingollan operating a little further forward than Pogba. Pogba I think is at his best when he's collecting the ball from defenders with space to run into or space to spread the ball.
someone else said it earlier on here: for all these supposed "list briefings" to the UK media, the UK media surprisingly has no consensus as to whom is on said list or what position they are being scouted for.
Arrogant arseholes.
Jaysus, I'm not the biggest Arsenal fan, but I hope they don't sell him now out of pure spite. Incredible they can be so cnuty. Barca are run by clowns.
Barcelona are indeed run by clowns atm but the stance on cantera players, for me, is appropriate considering the poaching that goes on for these same players. That being said, I hope very much that Bellerin is not signed and an alternative is sought, like Semedo.
No, no. Sign Bellerin please.
