"Lindelöf included in Benfica's squad for tomorrow's tough game vs V.Guimarães. The Swede back after being left out of the two latest games." - Jan Hagen (Search PortuBall on Twitter).

Finally Jose killed it. Portuguese papers should be banned
Good man Jose, very happy about that. Now go sign a midfielder instead, please.
Why 8 games? And why no Blind, he may be not be a natural CH, but if he's talking stop-gaps hasn't he been just that before?
That's the max. amount of time Bailly's out for.
Just looked, it could be 7 actually, more than I thought, so fair enough, thanks. ANC final is 5th Feb.
Still suspicious of these 'quotes' on twitter though.

Did you count the possible 4th round FA Cup fixture? The quotes are from BBC.

thanks top whatsit, Blind lives.
Portuguese papers are so bad. All of them. And should be added to the ban list.
And this thread can be closed.

Meh, not really. Up until Lind, sure, but not the -or.
I found the perfect solution. Text to speech! Go here:

Put this in the box: Lindelöf?
Yes, including the question mark, for a more proper pronunciation.
Lin as in linen, del, "öf" like "urf" in 'turf'.
I hope this doesn't affect our position if we want to sign Semedo in the summer..

Don't know why anyone would believe them in the first place. They said we'd signed Gaitan about 30 times.
I'm guessing a game a week for potentially 2 months.
He'll sign on Monday if that Rojo injury is serious.
With Rojos, Smalling and Jones injury record we will need another CB.
Damn. I think this is going to be a mistake. Counting on Jones to stay injury free at this point
Please no Blind in CB. That will mean we go with Fellaini in midfield to add some height and will disrupt the whole team.
Get this guy signed and ready to play if Rojo is out for too long. Although I wouldn't mind Fonte as a stop-gap signing either.

You can bet the Portuguese media will have a field day tomorrow with their Lindelof to United for £50m with Rojo getting injured.
No more stop gaps please. We either accelerate the Lindelof signing or wait until the summer to reassess.
This 100%, especially for fonte
The commentator on my stream earlier seemed to imply that this was basically a done deal
If it was fs1 I caught that too, at half time i came here to see if there was any impending news of it. I wish he had names his source.
Yeah I think it was mate. No idea who the commentator was mind.
According to my sources he will either sign or he will not
I remember they did the same with Sanches.The commentator on my stream earlier seemed to imply that this was basically a done deal
He's probably just quoting all the other incorrect Portuguese media.The commentator on my stream earlier seemed to imply that this was basically a done deal

As suspected, O Jogo and Report say that a transfer is looking more likely with Rojo's injury.

Shame he doesn't allow Tuanzebe a chance to stake a claim and would prefer to play more experienced players out of position.
Mirror says deal done @ £115k p/w, No. 2 shirt given.
That said, I could make that up myself.

I hate it when we are linked with Portuguese based players. The rumours are a mindfeck.
He is already crying in that picture. This is going through.....or maybe not.
Weird situation this, all the noises suggest it should happen but Jose says we arent interested who knows ey.
I think we're trying to get the price down. That's the only logical thing here
Those quotes from their manager seem pretty definitive that he's coming to us. What's the betting that there's some mistranslation there?
Maybe he's off to China 
Sounds like he's off somewhere for sure, was the manager actually asked about Utd though?

Maybe this is the latest in the relatively recent trend of very expensive centre-backs being heavily linked to us before signing for City?
