We've been extremely lucky recently, other teams have imploded whilst we've played poorly. It was only a matter of time.
Can't one man dream for at least 20 min...
Arteta was a wanted man for a period. He stayed on. There is precedent
I didn't know Krul was on his way anywhere. There's been no news on that AFAIK.
So Zoet's good enough to be a first-choice keeper?

He has nothing to do with Arteta
You'd think so but no. Look at that indy guy or Petrov. They don't care.
I disagree
Similar position, Similar nationality, Similar situation, similar importance,
Similar player in the next 8 years, Believe

It was always a load of shite. One trusted (not necessarily trustworthy) person gets it wrong and thousands of eejits recycle it, then a bunch of morons post it on a forum to poke fun at the eejits, which just adds further momentum. Next thing you know, Thiago has been spotted practising tiki-taka with Bebe at Carrington.
Thanks, Milan!
Not sure if posted already.
That's really cool. Whoever runs their account is classy.
DC you went all in on the OP.

So nice to see everyone want to see my downfall
LOL. Make it happen
Wow, Forren has gone back to Molde FC? Did he even play once for Southampton?
No wonder we only offered him a trial in Jan.
Bullet. Dodged.
Also, re Mkhitaryan, seeing some rumours popping up on twitter (lol) that Klopp had contacted him before he went away on holiday and gave him some "prep work" (wut?). If true, we absolutely never stood a chance.

Uh, no
Uh, no, Arteta had played in PSG, Rangers and Real Sociedad before going to Everton.
Got information from my source yesterday afternoon, saying that Thiago wouldn't sign. Didn't want to post it.

DC, I have told you before : it's this easy

It's a shame how the green and gold campaign died out. I'm still a member of MUST though.

I am sure Pep will get Alcantara. That won't be a big problem for Bayern or Audi but to be honest I would prefer real leather in my Audi S8.

hey now, he's probably browsing bestiality brothels in Germany.
fuck a goat, shoot a load.
Just seen that, sounds crazy.
Not ready for the PL yet, I think. That's why I don't understand why Newcastle is interested in him.

dc's tardiness is great. Makes for some funny situations.
Not a bad thing in bed.

@Anyone who's played Folklore, is it difficult?
Folklore is pretty fun. I got it when it came out, I made a massive mistake though....
I traded it.

Remember when I pointed out months ago that David Gill has been replaced by a hedge fund manager [picutred] and that once Fergie leaves that we're going to adopt an Arsenal approach of winning in the board room, rather than on the pitch? You wouldn't because I didn't post it on here, but I did post it on RedCafe.net but it got deleted because they don't like my no-nonsense take on United's future under the Glazer ownership.
Ed Woodward, 40, an hedge fund manager.
Remember when I was a genius who noticed all these things years before everyone else did? Remember that there's 0 evidence that we were ever in for Thiago in the first place. Remember when United's new chief executive, Ed Woodward, who knows nothing about football and is an idiot, said that United don't need to strengthen despite the fact we have a non-existent midfield and the worst wingers in Europe? Remember when the other day, Manchester United favourite and, more importantly, employee, Bryan Robson said that United don't need any new midfielders? Remember when David Moyes emphasised bringing through youth in his presser? Remember the fact that we're Manchester United, the most profitable club in the world, yet out of the top 7 signings in English football history, only one of them have been by United (the 7th, Dimitar Berbatov). Remember that Sir Alex Ferguson is the goat manager with an awful lot of clout and Moyes isn't.
Yes, we've spent quite a bit of money in the past few seasons, but with the exception of Van Persie, they've all been long term investments or one of the worst players in the world, Ashley Young. It's as much about wages as it is about transfer fees though. It's the kind of thing a hedge fund manager would think about. Getting young, exciting prospects like Phil Jones on 40k a week contracts for 20m isn't the same as getting a world class player on top wages. Remember the whole Tevez situation? And how by the time Fergie convinced the board to let him spend the money on him, Tevez decided that he no longer wished to play for us? Remember when we replaced Ronaldo with Michael Owen, Antonio Valencia and Gabriel Obertan?
What does it say that we signed Michael Owen, or keep playing Giggs at the age of 39, or re-signed Scholes, or haven't replaced Fletcher who has AIDS?
We may have been in for Thiago, who knows. Ed Woodward may have been haggling over an extra couple of million. Barcelona said we didn't make a bid, so we probably weren't in for him.
Let us remember this post when United finish 4th in May and crash out of the Champions League with typical backs to the wall approach that we've come to expect against the creme de la creme of Europe in recent seasons due to our mediocre squad.

It seems like Fredy Montero is a done deal. He will join Sporting when we go on tour Monday on Canada.
