If I could get away with just wearing that outside I would too, looks super comfortable.
Seven point two megawats.
I was so keen on this Lucas transfer because from the very beginning I thought that it was the most likely one we'd make after Kagawa. A young and talented winger? SAF would be very interested in that. I don't think we'll be signing anyone else this summer tbh. All the eggs were in the Lucas basket.
Its clear that from the beginning, Sao Paolo were looking for a bidding war and they've gotten what they wanted now.
And WTF is going on at UEFA? Platini specifically brought in FFP to stop spending like this and even mentioned City and Chelsea when talking about sugar daddy clubs. Well PSG have just outspent both of them but he hasn't said a word about it. Fuck off.

Who can? They don't care about FFP or seems they don't.
I bet you a very cheap football shirt (not of your choice) that we do sign another player for over 10 million this window.
Well, guess I was naive for thinking our club's history and prestige continues to count for something.
Alright.
Mancini is deffo still in for him, in any case.
Young player, wanker of an agent. Juve have more right to be gutted over PSG grabbing Verratti.
FFFUUUUUUUU!!! My favourite car of the last 2 years ruined. RUINED.
In some cases it does. But PSG are quite possibly the richest club in the world. Most players would find it very hard to turn down down all the money that PSG are throwing at him.
Well, it's still out in a general sense, because I think we'll be doing business very soon.
I think the Baines deal is dead. It could always be brought back up but I can't see SAF going back in for a player he deemed too expensive the first time around.
I can't see us signing a CM as SAF just doesn't seem interested in one. RVP seems like the only player we have any links to right now.
I agree about Baines. I think we have more options though.
It's just a fool's game trying to follow any of it.
Evra's wife is giving birth.
Phil Jones(?) is unwell and will tour no more.
Anderson has put the arm rest up and is occupying window and aisle seats.
Kagawa continues to impress.
PSG and Sao Paulo can fuck off.
Jorge Martinez close to finding a deal with Mallorca.
Laurent Platini, Michel's son, is Qatar Sports Investment's lawyer, a group controlled by QIA, the owners of PSG.
Goal.com reporting that City are preparing a £20million bid for Agger. I'd hold out for a few million more.
Saying that, regardless of all the 'Stobarts always spot on' that's infested this thread lately, the last two 'Stobart exclusives' we're Liverpool preparing a bid for Sturridge, and Liverpool agreeing a deal for Allen. Both turned out to be utter bullshit, so I'll take this with a pinch of salt.

To be fair, I'm not even sure whether a £30mn 19yo or a £15mn injury-prone 29yo would make much sense for us. But given the at-times dire state of affairs with regards to our on-field performances last season, I think many United fans are just desperate to see something spectacular happen in the transfer market for us because it's been far too long since we last had a truly marquee signing.
All according to keikaku
I really don't think we need to do much except build midfield depth and variety.
Someone who can control possession, and a tackling machine who could drop to CB in a pinch. Someone who could pencil in a tick in both of these boxes would be good. We don't need flash - just extreme workrate and tenacity.
Would've thought that City would offer Adam Johnson in exchange as well, £20mil plus Johnson would probably be enough for Liverpool. Johnson, £10mil for a new defender & £10mil for one of Dempsey, Ramirez or Sturridge and Liverpool would be a much stronger team than holding on to Agger I feel.
Yeah, I really hope we don't go into every big game next season still relying on the creaking legs of Scholes and Giggs.
Well that's certainly not according to keikaku.
Tackling machine who could drop to CB? Mascherano! No wait. Busquets! Nope, not gonna happen. Martinez! Narp.

I reckon we'd only sell Nani if we got Moura. But fuck him
I don't know about Anderson. He's been given so many opportunities already.
I'd be perfectly happy if we sold Anderson but SAF seems to want to persist with him. I don't think he is good enough for Manchester United but Fergie seems desperate to persist with him. We should try to sign Sahin but that really doesn't seem likely.
City, United and Spurs have been just fine, they have been workmanlike but never looked totally off the pace. Chelsea and Arsenal on the other hand...

Didn't City lose to Oldham?
Yes.
I think we W4 D1 L2 this preseason off the top of my head. Could be wrong though.
Yes but everybody is allowed one strange result in pre-season. We drew with Liverpool, remember.
You make a compelling argument. I'd definitely say yes to £20 million plus Johnson, or even better £20 million plus Adebayour.
:lol
He really is the sexiest football.
Still bitter about that amazing volley at Anfield.
If we got a full strength Fletch back then I wouldn't think we'd need another CM, but I can't really see that happening.
Fletcher, Carrick and Cleverley would be a wonderfully balanced midfield.
seriously
