I can't understand anyone following anyone other than verified journalists with a reliable reputation or news outlets such as BBC or SSN.
 
As if Giggs would reveal that. He'd basically let it slip that we're in for Dutch, Argentine or German players.
 
Please stop.

No they weren't. Stop picking on the poor guy... :( He's barely posted in a decade of being a member.. :( Needs encouragement..

"When we met at the end of last season we went through the players who are here and some of the players he liked that will maybe come in. Two have already come in," said Giggs. "It's always hard during the World Cup because a lot of the players you're looking at could still be part of the World Cup, or they’ve just gone out and are now going on holiday for a rest. I'm not sure how many players will come in - we'll have to wait and see.

Fellaini shaving his head is gonna be the final nail in his coffin. The club made massive money selling those wigs and it's all over now. He will be sold soon or put on a diet for speedy hair growth.
 
I think we should just limit posting to Adnan and his crew now. Those guys have it nailed.
 
Yeah, ban everyone from posting in this thread except Adnan and co.

I don't think we should end the discussion aspect. Maybe a little more harshness on the silly gifs etc. but the Gods already mentioned they've handed out some thread bans today. It's mainly the Pogba photoshop tweet and 'Agent Edward' sort of stuff that gets frustrating. Thought we had filtered that stuff out by now.
 
Yes, but in it he mentions that they discussed this at the end of the season.

Err. Yes mate. But the rest of the quote is very recent.. How else would he say that two of the targets are already in ?

 
Fiorentina president also weighed in on Cuadrado: “It’s hard to keep him, but not impossible. But sometimes I managed to do impossible things. Barcelona? They are not the only team after him, there are many threats.

^taken from that Di Marzio article.
 
Vidal on holiday, Di Maria and Vidal still in the world cup.

On like a steaming pile of neck bones.

Vidal can be done now. Doubt Holiday matters much. Can fly over for a couple of days.

Di Maria and Hummels i assume you mean got to wait after the WC though.


Anyway, if these are our primary targets we may be waiting before bidding for the secondary ones too.
 
Its going to be an interesting summer! I'm excited!
 
I still don't think he's referring to anyone in particular with that. He could even be on about Shaw.

Umm it's going a bit OT mate. But just to clarify what I think Giggsy meant :

"When we met at the end of last season we went through the players who are here and some of the players he liked that will maybe come in. Two have already come in," said Giggs. "It's always hard during the World Cup because a lot of the players you're looking at could still be part of the World Cup, or they’ve just gone out and are now going on holiday for a rest. I'm not sure how many players will come in - we'll have to wait and see."

That surely implies that there are more to come apart from the 2 we already signed. Some of them might be in the world cup and the transfers might be completed or negotiations started with diligence once they're knocked out. Anyway that's just how I interpreted it. Might be wrong. :)
 
My usual source. Pogba still remains 1st choice target for Chelsea midfield. Will be difficult due to transfer fee Juventus want but with them owing Chelsea over £10m from Mutu saga and their interest in Ramires, some sort of deal could be reached.

I'm sure it does but there's no timescale on our negotiations. He said they're either still there, just gone out or on holiday. That's basically everyone.

Hmm yeah that's true. Could be anyone.

The fact he said it and they are either still there (meaning they are playing for one for four nations) or just gone on holiday (ok that pool is bigger) but I would hazard I guess they at least played in the knockouts since we already signed Shaw.

EDIT: I think it gives you an idea of the calibre of player we are trying to bring in. However deals are being negotiated etc.
