I've had confirmation that Manchester United are NOT trying to sign Wesley Sneijder from Inter Milan and never were in for him #MUFC.

i LOVE the transfer window
Hitler died.
My thread spazzed up, it refreshed and tonnes more posts got added.
Ironically, Hitler died with your post, I've seen that posted loads of times on the caf.
Cue out of the blue signing of Jack Rodwell and Fergie "business is done" speech on Tuesday.
A tweet by another esteemed BBC journalist Ian McGarry only five days ago.
#MUFC made first enquiry to Internazionale today about the availability of Wesley Sneijder. No offical bid has been made as yet.
But I thought we were never even in form him?

This is how these journos work.
@DevilForever, I'm sorry, but it doesn't seem like we're signing him. Its selective screening. Goal.com say we're in for him so we are. BBC Guy says we're not, but to most on this forum it means we are. Hell, SAF says nothing to it - Its a smoke screen.

Howard Nurse is obviously a rubbish ITK, because he didn't tweet good news. Like Sir Alex, he cares not for the muppets one bit...

@howardnurse is incorrect, United have made official moves for Wesley Sneijder
I trust this man more.
Howard Nurse must have contacted the club and they would have just backed up what Fergie said. Why would we want to reveal that we're interested?

#MUFC Confirmed NO bid for Sneijder, NO personal terms agreed, NOT on verge of signing

Sneijder just gave Eto'o an assist in a pre-season friendly.
Clearly trying to impress United

That's all folks!
I'm pretty sure that the jounos are trying to mindfeck the caf, that's the only explanation. We're part of one giant prank.
This is all hilarious. Clearly nobody knows what is going on and people are just making up wild rumours left, right & centre. Fergie must be laughing up his sleeve and is probably quietly moving closer to his real transfer target.
Chances are we probably will sign a midfielder as we could do with improvement and definitely are a bit thin in there now - would only take an injury or two to decimate us. It may not be Sneijder, and if it isn't then that will be because the club do not feel he is the best fit for us so don't panic. Whoever it is Fergie will be convinced that he will be the best option for us.

Has he graciously shared where he received this "confirmation" from? Or did he, as I suspect, just read the quotes from SAF?

I've just got to ask you.. what do you think is the meaning of the phrase... well, that one..?
Does this seem like a stranger than usual saga or is it only because it's about United do I actually pay attention to it?
Well you choose what and who you want to believe
I choose to believe that it's a done deal, and it just need ironing out inner details, like the hospitals in Manchester are fully booked and the earliest medical can only be done next Thursday

That other guys earlier tweets :

Got some news on sneijder but I'm not going to steal howards thunder!
Come on Howard FFS!! Yes it is good news
Well bollocks to howard that's not what I was going to say, jesus I give the lad a window and he wastes it! Next tweet...
And then
#mufc staff at a certain level are now 'making preparations' for the arrival and subsequent promo work of Mr Wesley Sneijder.
Just to clarify, that means they are sure hes coming.doesn't mean he's signed,doesn't mean they're about to announce-it means what it means.

Look at the positives.. we were never in for Sneijder.. means we have been trying to sign someone else all this time and noone has picked up no it

Seems the same as all the others; Conjecture, innuendo, dashed hopes, faint hopes, spilled tears, spoiled jizz and in the end nothing much changes.

Exactly. Nurse has simply put SAF's interview into tweet form and what was then ignored is now being taken as the gospel.
I genuinely don't know why anyone relies on twitter because more often than not some "ITK" reveals that the deal will be done in "the next 48 hours", when it turns out to be complete BS, some other "ITK" reveals the deal will take place at the weekend and the cycle repeats. Anyone who buys into the crap deserves to get trolled.
Can't fool us Fergie
Sir Alex would sell the BBC a virus
He's basically saying nothing has been agreed yet and no formal bid has been submitted. Doesn't mean we have not made enquiries and are not at all interested.
Another PM from a newbie. No idea who the tweeter is, but apparently they're reliable.
Look at it this way muppets:
Still negotiating fee with Inter, not made an official bid yet.
Still negotiating terms with Sneijder and finding a way to meet wage demands, not agreed personal terms.
Not on the verge of signing because we're still negotiating on both fronts.
There's still hope!
tbh United weren't to come out and tell Howard "yep, we are in for him and his signing will be complete in the next couple of days" when Fergie said exactly the opposite yesterday.
This tweet means feck all.
We will never now until his signing is complete or until the transfer period is over.

He also said we were not even trying to buy him, which is a bit of a contradiction to his last tweet.
When the going gets tough, these are the men you want to believe :
MrAgentX3
I am getting so fed up of repeating myself with this #Sneijder deal. Yes #Sneijder to #MUFC is going to happen. Believe what you want.

Hang on a minute... I have been up for soon 30 hours, so I can't actually tell if I saw wrong all along, or you cleverly edited it right before I clicked...
Mindfeck.
It is pretty amusing that a journalist saying someone WON'T sign is immediately met with trust, while a journalist saying they WILL sign is met with scorn.
Just treat it all the same, a jumbled minefield of ill-informed shite.
