Just bought a pizza.

Dirty bulk. Might watch the FHRITP YouTube vids as a starter lol

welcome to the club

this is what neogaf does to you. slowly turns you into a fat neckbeard pizza eating slob by tempting you with gifs

 

[cartoon_soldier]

if it isn't an 'obligation to buy' to spread out the cost then this is officially one of the stupidest loan deals in the history of fucking football

22.8 million on wages alone ffs

it's DEFINITELY not an option, I mean look at him, he's celebrating :lol

It's a great deal. It's not an obligation, if he does well we will buy him.

 

[Kikarian]

Vertonghen injured a female fan with a shot in training

LOOOOOOL

 

[Lightning]

Welbeck is a low risk signing. If he works out great, if he doesn't we can ship him off again and get most of our money back. It's very low risk.

 

[Don't Laugh]

 

[Mr.Marston]

Sanogo is good. the only thing missing from his game is finishing, which I get is a pretty glaring flaw... BUT considering the huge panic when Giroud went down (another striker who can't finish) and the celebration over Welbeck (who also can't finish), I'm more than a little perplexed why the fans are so quick to give up on him.

Yup.

Sanogo at least has the excuse that he's inexperienced and was playing Ligue 2 football 18 months ago.

Welbeck is just...ugh.

Welbeck is a low risk signing. If he works out great, if he doesn't we can ship him off again and get most of our money back. It's very low risk.

You gonna get 16m if he doesnt work out?

Im amazed we got 16m when he didnt work out

 

[Yurt]

It's a great deal. It's not an obligation, if he does well we will buy him.

you're paying close to 30 million for a loan, how is that even close to a great deal you fucking lemon

it's clearly NOT an option.

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

good good

more deals like these please

Woody has absolutely KILLED it this window lol

what a turn around

 

[Kikarian]

A petrol station in Dortmund :lol

We really did ruin him.

Spoiler

He wasn't cut out for the premier league and you all know it

 

[Danchi]

You gonna get 16m if he doesnt work out?

Blackburn Rovers won't sell Jordan Rhodes for less than £15m. Liverpool sold an injured Andy Carroll for £18m.

British tax is very real.

They say option to buy but I think it's a dodgy deal.

He even thanked everybody at Monaco as if he's left permanently.

RUMBO stays nahmsayin

 

[Zabojnik]

GUYS

someone make an awful and embarrassing avatar for cartoon-soldier to wear PLEASE

This one should do, at least for now.

Please convince cartoon to use it.

Still so angry?

lol

 

[Lightning]

We will get close to that amount. With how prices are sky rocketing for players 16m is not much anymore. We brought Vermaelen for 7-8m, he played shit and missed a season through injury and we still got 15m for him. With the way valuations of players continues to grow at such an alarming rate yeah we will get our money back.


Last season Di Maria was 35-40m this season he was 60m

 

[Perfect Blue]

lol

Why would he be angry? Vidal is staying at Juve.

 

[Da DreadLord]

Are all juve fans so obsessed with shitting on united as yurt?

 

[Zabojnik]

What are you talking about? Me and Yurt are honorary United-bros. Juve and United. Junited.

T'was just a bit of harmless summer trolling, is all.

 

[Yurt]

where/when did I shit on United?! I'm just saying it's an obligation to buy, which makes it a good deal financially speaking. You're spreading out the cost over two years for a WC striker

He even thanked everybody at Monaco as if he's left permanently.

see?

 

[jtb]

16m is a small amount for most clubs but that's a pretty large outlay for Wenger.

also, 100k/week is going to be very difficult to move if it turns out he can't play up front.

We'll see. British tax is real, though, so I can see it.

 

[pappe]

I don't think United will continue to pay full of Fatcaos wages next yr. He will have to take a pay cut.

 

[Meier]

English tax. Getting 16m was a huge win though, he's really a 10-15m player at best given Sturridge's fee (let alone the fact Chelsea had to give us 15% of it).

 

[D_prOdigy]

whisper it to fellow United bros, but I imagine Falcao is still holding out for a Madrid move after this year.

 

[Danchi]

Probably fair to say the price was also inflated due to selling to a direct rival. Chelsea probably didn't feel that way with the Sturridge deal.

Junited is real. Together we will conquer the world. ♡

This seems quite an optimistic statement. Unless he was so happy to leave fucking Monaco that he agreed to anything. Footballers (like all people) really don't like wage cuts.

 

[jtb]

Shirt sales will make up the difference.

 

[Razor554]

What a transfer window. What a time to be alive.

 

[LanceVance]

Madrid won't want him after they sign Chicharito permanently

 

[Kikarian]

Nah. He would have gone straight away.

 

[Lightning]

striker.

They are buying a world class striker, who just came off a serious injury and is 28yrs old, paying an extraordinary amount of money while ignoring their troublesome midfield and defence. Falcao to United makes about asbmuxh sense as Iniesta to Arsenal. Class player, upgrade on what we have but ultimately not what we need nor want.

 

[figadapaura]

He'd have to start paying tax anyway. He's getting a pay cut no matter how you look at it.

No doubt his Monaco wages are beyond what we'd be willing to offer though.

 

[brokenbeans]

In Woody we trust.

 

[Yurt]

wear it with pride cartoon_woodward

it's was a bet, not a loan with an option to say no

Why would he be angry? Vidal is staying at Juve.

innit <3

 

[Yurt]

dp sorry ;_;

All true, but when you ignore all of this, they're still getting FALCAO!


and no one needs Iniesta to be fair. Can't wait till he retires

 

[bobito]

Happy cartoon is getting his avatar, best bet I've made in years with someone

 

[Vivalaraza]

Falcao already took the pay cut chaps.

Yurt is just angry.

No pleasing some people.

 

[Kikarian]

Falcao hahaha

we're never getting him, no way.

Shh don't burst Yurt's bubble

 

[figadapaura]

looooooooool

 

[Mr Cola]

Falcao will be 29 next year, 30 year after, we are only going to get a few hardcore seasons out of him at the top regardless.

Who knows, he could flop

Remember Shevchenko

 

[K1LLER7]

Falcao is on ~£240,000. Similar to Di Maria and RVP.

He's talking like its a permanent move.

Yes RUMBO

 

[Perfect Blue]

Only thing more backwards than c_s having an avatar is c_s not being the highest poster in this thread.

I know you hate Iniesta, think he's overrated but all I'm saying is they pursued Vidal all summer didn't get him. They wanted 2 top class centre backs after Rio and Vidic went and they got Rojo. All hail woody? Wenger failed to address key areas of our squad and even though we got in Alexis Wenger cops a hell of a scathing. Falcao us great but they have RVP who's also great. I don't consider United any more of a threat than I already did because everyone knew they were strong upfront but that United midfield will not control games against big teams. No way.

 

[Zabojnik]

Riiiiiiiiight. And Illaramerda only cost 40M€.
