Well, it was nice being a top club for a while.

A player with one year left on his contract? WHAT A SHODDILY RUN CLUB I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY'RE RUNNING IT INTO THE GROUND.
I wanted to make some joke about you replacing Hazard with some over-rated chancer of an attacking midfielder but the club have beaten me to the joke by signing Ross Barkley, so...
Marina won't see the point in paying Joe Hart's wages when we could get in a G4S contractor on £12/hour.
In fairness, she'd probably be right in that instance.
Is it too late to junk the stadium plans?Originally Posted by Jimmy Floyd
We/Abramovich have just won a long running battle with some nimby cunt in Fulham who was claiming the cranes would block their source of natural light, so probably is. Still, all the west London derbies with Brentford should draw a crowd.
He probably needs more direct local assets/investment to completely rule out ever being extradited.
All the PSG fans were enjoying les vacances in the Dordogne in August, so won't have been able to access whatever the French use for internet connection to frantically retweet and like Neymar. Fake news.
A quarter of those were Phonics coming to terms with it.
Neymar to Utd: confirmed
There are loads of Chelsea/City fans ('Oil Clubs': Harold Bishop) inexplicably seething in the replies to these.
The seething is no doubt self-reflective as Man Utd just do this sort of shit miles better than anyone else.
I love that picture is over the actual trophy we won.
And these quotes, as vomitous as they are, are to shareholders on a revenue call. They're not said normal humans on a serious level.
There was a time when United fans didn't need to point these things out, they were just a given. It's like that Thatcher quote about being a lady. If you need to tell people you're still the dominant force in English football, you aren't.
I don't think anyone was pointing these things out to prove we are the dominant force in English football...the 13 points we are behind Man City does a fairly good job dispelling any notion of that.
They are just something to lol at.
They do it in the same sentence as pleading poverty because City spend £57 million on a defender though (who needs defenders anyway).
Human beings in selective hypocrisy shocker.
Has anyone actually pleaded poverty in relation to City? Their spending only gets mentioned because the way people carry on you would think United were the only side throwing money around.
Jose Mourinho has.
I would bet that Wenger has too.
I wouldn't read all that much into Mourinho spouting off right before the transfer window opens.
City spend loads of dirty money and Guardiola is loved by the media (see the guff about how he was going to save England from Winter).
Mourinho is playing the dark arts as usual and getting Woodward to spend the money we have. Rather than the usual talking about how we're the richest club, prove it. Example Perisic who we haggled out of for 5m.
That was a long-con MIND GAME putting Italian poverty clubs on notice in case they go after that Lazio midfielder.
I think it was right to haggle over - and ultimately pull out of - the Perisic deal.
Spending a squillion quid to get a player like Neymar would be worth it, but if you start paying whatever a club asks for a 28 year old 'good but not amazing' winger then before you know it you're getting absolutely fleeced on every single transfer. You have to draw the line somewhere on a transfer like that.
You're either a rich club and need to sign players or not. Haggling over a few quid when it's a player the manager wants is miserly.
M'Bappes move to PSG has been made permanent today after they mathematically avoided relegation this year
Deadline here soon.
Never mind that he doesn't score many goals, he has a nice exotic name (if there was ever a name that screamed Italian Nigerian). God knows what he'll make of Dundalk town.
Who’s this Arthur that Barcelona have spent €40M on from Gremio? Apparently the perfect Iniesta replacement but as far as I can tell that just means he’s very small.

Come on mate it's not hard.
Good point, why post anything on TTH when we could just google the answer.
He's the most Dutch-looking Brazilian I've ever seen
Also, seems legit:
Gremio, which own only 60 percent of Arthur's rights, had initially been asking for €50m. The rest is shared between investor Celso Rigo and Arthur's family, the latter of which has has agreed not to demand any fee, a source said.
"Goals and skills".
This board would be nothing without Andrew.
Obviously.

It appears that usain bolt is about to sign for a team in south africa. I call trolling.
Atletico Madrid have agreed to sell Nicolas Gaitan and Yannick Carrasco to Dalian Yifang, a newly promoted Chinese Super League team, who signed Jose Fonte last week too.
No official transfer fees but I would imagine Carrasco’s is pretty big.
Waste of a quality player.
What a waste. Carrasco has always looked like he is quite good to me, and he's only 24 still, seems way too young to end his carreer like that already.
I think he's the first good player from a proper team to go there before he was half dead.
Nicolas Gaitan moving again and where is Ed Woodward? Tosser.
Didn't realise Fonte was gone. That really didn't work out at West Ham, though he probably got a good signing bonus.
Harsh on Oscar.
I was going to say, Ramires and Oscar were/are both decent.
And then there was Paulinho who, admittedly wasn't that great when he left but then somehow is good now it seems for Barca and everything about that is just inexplicable.
Griezmann to Barca for €100M is as good as done.
