yep, the racism was gushing out of the post. doesn't take a rocket scientist to know what he meant.
Still a long window ahead. Who knows where Griezmann will be come September.
I'm personally not that overawed by him anyway, but the football world has U-turns often enough. Stranger things have happened.
At Atletico, because he extended his contract already.
I'm aware of that. He wasn't out of contract before either.
I don't think a player can sign for 2 clubs in the same summer, can they ?
Yeah it's happened numerous times before. Also he wouldn't be signing for 2 clubs as he was already there.
However, it's not going to happen as they would be without a striker till January.
Was not condoning the joke fyi. I was not 200% sure either of you realised. Just wanted to make sure you were both aware.
If the guy wanted to leave this summer, he wouldn't have extended his contract already.
Anyone still dreaming of Griezmann joining us this summer is desperate and letting the hope kills him.
Hi
What's happening?
What's happening?
Yep I think we'll see the ball rolling then.
Strange one, pretty successful in Basel last year, did they not decide to take the buy option on him.
It just reminded me of this story - http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/26162408
Apoligies to all offended.

I know, I mean in addition to his targets. A few good young talents here and there cannot hurt.

Diario Madridista (which I know nothing about) is claiming Mourinho wants Kovacic. What do you think of this?

That´s the original article. https://okdiario.com/real-madrid/futbol/2017/06/30/mourinho-tambien-viene-kovacic-279440
It is a very pro Madrid newspaper. As I wrote here a while ago, it is good to discover things about Barcelona but not about Madrid. In any case it does not make much sense to invent something about Kovacic when they do not intend to sell him.
To believe it I´d wait to read about it in Marca or the radio programs
Not upset at all no, I just wonder why some people listen to what is obvious rubbish
I agree, Conte did such a good job with Chelsea last year organising them and getting the right set up in defence....but the main difference between them and Mourinhos last year was Hazard and Costa waking up again, he wont be easy to replace for the work he does for the team.....certainly wont get that from Lukaku as an example
If he leaves Sampdoria, it will be interesting for whichever club that gets him.
For those who haven't seen Muriel play… I mean this guy, he's some player at times. When he's at his best is absolute top, top, top notch. Like, only outdone by Messi and Ronaldo kind of top, ability-wise. I kid you not! However, he switches off too often unfortunately, resulting in terrible performances from time to time. The mentality is not quite there and he's had weight problems in the past, which may or may not also add to said mentality issues.
Even though upside is merely the potential of a player and should not be a criteria for judging overall quality, his is insane… jesus.
For years I have read how talented he is, but am I the only person who has never seen him do ANYTHING impressive at all whenever I have watched him?
Please go back and tell him it's not the first day of the fecking window as it opened on the 9th June we signed a player (Lindelof) 2 weeks ago and other clubs have signed players to.
Unless all of the clubs were breaking the rules and flaunting it under the noses of FIFA and every other governing body...
I swear if I see one more £&@& post that's the window has not opened yet or that it's only the first day today 1st July I'm going to destroy the internet
No need to argue with him whether I disagree or not, just stating not upset or bothered just think the rubbish people take note of from the press is dissapointing...I listened to a De Brun podcast last summers window, was obvious within 5mins he was full of it. I am still hoping that they have all got it totally wrong, not that any are bad players but I dont want us to sign Matic or Perisic at all, they may be Mourinho players....but they are not United players in my opinion. So far there is nothing concrete at all, I do get the feeling there is truth in the Morata rumours, I also think there may have been truth in us bidding for Marquinhos with the subsequent contract extension and I think there may have been enquiries into Sanches from Mourinhos comments last year and the recent comments from both the player and today his club. If these are true, seems we were after quality players, cant believe the back ups would be ones we are getting heavily linked with. I am hoping for a couple of surprise signings but more really good young players not average ones that would do a good disciplined job for the team.....when what we need is an injection of quality in certain positionsI wasn't dreaming, and am not particularly in hope either, as I had expressed throughout his thread that I wasn't keen on him. I just meant that it wouldn't massively surprise me if things changed this summer. A part of him obviously wants to leave, he planned to do so this summer. We do not know all the circumstances, but if things changed, there's obviously an actual will to leave in there somewhere.
Amazing some of the fees we are seeing happening at other European clubs when you see the fees being quoted to our clubs for the likes of Michael Keane, Dier, Walker, Lukaku, DJik, Perisic, Pickford, Keita etc
Tielmans, Paredes, Sule, Coman, Benatia, Dahoud, Bruma, Banega, Papoudoplos have all transferred for just fractions of the prices
Good player who could be great when in form, but nothing spectacular overall.
A couple of years back €20m could've got you a very exciting players/prospects. Today... Not so much.
I agree, good player, amazing free kicks but apart from that not spectacular....same token, which central midfielders would you get in the premiership for that price? In my opinion it is still a good deal considering that.
They're a fraction of the former group of players though
Arsenal hold all the cards here, he has a contract until 2022 and he'll need to play his best to make the WC squad.
Yes price wise or do you mean ability?
Sule over Keane
Benatia over Djik
Banega over Dier (if he is still anything like the player of Sevilla and Valencia)
Coman over Perisic
Tielmans over Kieta (confess barely seen Keita, still I think Tielmans will be worth treble his fee in a year or two, which would still make him cheaper than Keitas rumoured fee)
I think Bruma, Paredes and Dahoud are a bit overhyped, but they are all talented and have all gone for relatively cheap fees that would have been good deals for a lot of premiership sides
Don't agree with some of those, but there is still value somewhere in the market just not for English clubs .
People should just get acquainted with the fact every top PL club will be forced to pay a premium . Never understood the banal tedium of arguing over transfer fees it just seems... petty?
obviously even with the market as it is some clubs are far better resourced but it's best just to worry about getting the right players in rather than what they cost.
Yeah, both him and Theo, obvious PR moves
