Bull's excrement.

Shaw and Herrera deals were announced when the stock market was open. This false rumour has been thoroughly squashed twice this window already.

There's a major difference here tho.
We actually signed Herrera and Shaw, so far nothing is certain re Vidal, if we made a comment saying ''We're currently working on a deal with Juventus for Vidal'' or ''We're close to agreeing upon a move with Vidal'' or something like that, that would affect the stock and is - as far as i've been able to find - not allowed, since it can be utilized to bump up stock prices short term.

But we made comments on Fabregas last summer while the stock exchange was open too. Pretty sure it was open anyway....

There is obviously a new tight lipped method being employed at Old Trafford this year, and anyone saying anything about the stock exchange is talking nonsense anyway.

Could be, i really don't know much about it, just tried to google a bit about the rules, but since it's general rules that apply for all businesses it's kinda hard to relate them to a football club.

No matter what, there's a major difference from when we apparently briefed denials to the media, and now apparently not being 'available to comment'
 
Mina's source was wrong on the Liverpool being favored part regarding Falcao but she was clearly right regarding the interest from both them and City and was the first to report it.

Could've been true that Liverpool was the favored part between the two tho.

I'm pretty sure there was an article on the whole stock market thing, but I'll be buggered if I can find it again.

And yes, sounds that way!
 
I thought we bid for Neymar? Didn't Santos say they rejected something like 60 million from us? Or that the player had his heart set on Barcelona?

I don't remember us ever going for Neymar. It was probably Spurs as they showed real interest.

I don't think we were ever in for Neymar. We were for Lucas, and had an offer very close to a done dealio until Leonardo came and tapped (is this the right word?) the kid to PSG.
 
They knew they could never get him.

"Look, everyone! We're after big players."
They say the exact same thing about us to be fair. We give them plenty of ammo as well when you look at the amount of big name players we have missed out on in recent years.
 
I think Rojo would be a good signing for us as competition for Shaw. Am I right in saying he's capable of playing centre-back also?

Van Gaal seemed quite impressed with Reece James iirc. He likes to promote within and with players like Young, Blackett and Rafael we have some cover already. If we can get an etablished left-footed CB who can cover LB, we're done regarding our wingback positions.
 
Let's not turn into RAWK, I'm sure our members are intelligent enough to distinguish between credible BS or absolute BS.

Well obviously they're not, because the same shit papers like the Daily Star and The Express keep being posted.

Then again, some people here still have to ask if the likes of AgentITK007 are real. The wheel of shite keeps on turning.
 

Rome. Benatar, the offensive part of the Manchester United
Van Gaal is going to come out with a proposal on 30 million pounds. And now the Giallorossi in front of a super offer might be tempted to say yes to the sale
 
I don't know what's happening to be honest. The manager hasn't even been to Carrington once since his arrival from USA.
Doesn't matter where Van Gaal is, Woody is in charge of that. I'm sure they have been in contact with each other in regards to transfers, so Woody knows what to do.

The offensive is about to leave Manchester United. And the lens has a precise name: Mehdi Benatar. The Manchester clubs are in fact to take the plunge, ready to knock the door of Rome with a very hearty. A proposal of no less than £ 30 million, it is the detail that filters by the British press.

They're just recycling what the Express said. Ignore.
