Inter want Lukaku on loan for two years for 10m euros, with a 60m euro obligation to buy at the end of that term.
Lol.
Take it.
Jorginho is basically a midget version of John Obi Mikel - tidy, unspectacular, and an easy target for fans to shout FORWAAAARD!!!! at when we are 1-0 down at home to Southampton because he doesn't have any visible urgency about him.
He came into the season post the League Cup final, as several of our players did. I slightly fear for him under Super Frankie Binman though, unless he manages to find a way of combining him and Kanté in a DOUBLE PIVOT.
It's not your money m8
Forty million and Francesco Toldo.
Fucking bastard clubs just deciding how big a bid needs to be before they want to accept it.
Won't somebody please think of the children?
£70million is decent, we won't get more than that. Who cares if we don't get the full amount for a few years.
Add the £10M saved on wages then it's not too bad a deal for all parties tbf. He started pretty young so I reckon he'll be done and dusted by time he's 30 anyway especially if he continues to lift weights as he seems to have done. Too big.
Obviously you sell the shit cunt.
Kovacic to Chelsea for £50M! Jesus.
If we somehow managed to swing this then it would probably outdo winning the league as far as wtf moments go.
Followed players last week, plays as Liverpool in FIFA, likes Klopp, almost joined in 2017...it's a lock, right....?
Any itks online?
Chelsea are in a LOL sitatuion with the ban. You can hold them at ransom
He should get in Chelsea, from the locs alone
Sepp van den Berg signs. Yay.
How did Lukaku get so shit? He used to be good, right?
What's the deal with Chelsea then? Can they sign Kovacic because he was there on loan with a clause to buy before they were transfer banned? You'd think a transfer ban was bad enough, but if it also forces you to shell out £50m on him as well that feels like a double kick in the groin.
I have high hopes for this ginger Dutch kid I have only just heard of and seen for the first time. Him, that Hoever chap, all under Van Dijk's tutelage, sorted for years no doubt.
He looked decent from time to time for United. He was very much part of that revolutionary winning run they went on. He's just not that good or that bad, and is made to look shitter when everyone else around him is playing poorly as well. He'll to well in Italy forever. Can't United just do a swap deal with Icardi or something - or that Inter centre-half everyone is always being linked with? Skrinar?
Becuase of the clause, the ban does not apply becuase he was on loan.
All central defenders should be big ginger bastards.I have high hopes for this ginger Dutch kid I have only just heard of and seen for the first time. Him, that Hoever chap, all under Van Dijk's tutelage, sorted for years no doubt.
Lukaku is a good goalscorer, but Ole wants to play a style of football that Lukaku just doesn't suit at all.
Whats the correct word for that. Binman?
He wants them to play fast, counter-attacking football, which doesn't really work if your main forward has the bulk and mobility of a dwarf planet.
There's no point engaging you on anything to do with Utd.
Fixed.
You know it's going to be another season of nothing though, right? And he'll be gone by New Year? It's far too big a job for him and he hasn't even replaced any of the outgoing lot yet, if indeed they go and if they don't then that's going to make things even worse.
Thou cannot wait.
Well, forward come winger. He should be in the thick of it. Hell, I'd rather have Wan Bissaka and Luke Shaw bombing down and getting some quality balls in, hell, if Wan Bissaka manages to beat the first man he's better than Ashley Young. United haven't had that in a long time, no proper wingers either in my mind.
We have no idea how good Ole is at United yet. These haven't been his players, but it looks like he's getting the guys he wants.
It may not happen in one season, but they've started on the right path. Avoiding the temptation of a 30 year old big name is the next step. They'll be challenging for 4th regardless though.
Chelsea have just had their best player pinched and are about to appoint their own Ole, potentially without the ability to buy anyone. Arsenal need to start learning to play away from home to have much say in the top 4.
No....far from it but obviously blinkered because I'm a Liverpool guy and not because he flunked in his last year at Molde, got Cardiff relegated, a job he himself said he wasn't ready for before returning to Norway, which wasn't as good as his financially backed first two seasons.
I ain't being a dick but if you're not ready to manage Cardiff then how on earth can you be ready to manage one of the biggest clubs around? Especially one that requires as much on/off the field work as United.
The only blinkers I see are 1990's United fans pining for the days of old and Solksjaers only link to that was sticking a bloody foot out.

Man United will finish 20+ points adrift again for sure and as I said, Ole will be dismissed before the end of the season.
No need to watch any matches now I know how it ends. Cheers.
Lampard should be nowhere near the Chelsea job either tbh. What 30 year old big names have Man United signed other than Sanchez which was to stop him going to City? Unless you're on about Ibra in which case he smashed the league until he was injured the sexy bastard.
Nearly £70M on two players who have played less games combined than Andreas Pereira has managed in his entire career. Bonkers.
Not rumours, knowledge.
Is there a special reason you're refusing to engage further on the statement I'm actually disagreeing with? I feel like it'd be easier if you either said you refuse to budge on the inference that only about 3 managers are capable of having a style or accept that it was bollocks and we all move on with our lives.
Save the how crap Ole is or is not for somebody who's disagreeing with you.
Did I not already answer? Only others in the Prem you could say is the Wolves boss and Garcia of Watford but that's grasping.
His small stint has been littered with him being shown up as tactically naive and clueless. You only need to look at the rabbit in headlights look against PSG to realise that but then it was probably that match that forced United's hand. In reality, you can forget about his good start because the more recent form is some of the worst form, stats, records in Man United's. 1 defeat in 16 was great but 7 defeats in 11 is unforgivable.
Obviously I'm bias but I said when Moyes was hired he'd flop, I said when LvG was hired he'd flop, Mourinho the same and now Solksjaer who's definitely the weakest of the quartet. Every one of them has actually made Man United worse than when they arrived. Solksjaer will be the one to drive the nail in the coffin.

You've been predicting United's imminent demise for as long as I've been posting here, so let's not pretend you've really predicted anything.
