The fact not just Boehly has flown to Barcelona means they’re snatching De Jong from Man Utd. Not a chance they fly there to discuss 5m combined for Alonso and Azpilicueta

Lol. I'd start cleaning the cum off your belly now RL.
You'll notice I've been suitably skeptical of United to De Jong actually happening the whole way through.
Imagine Malcolm Glazer rolling up dressed like that to buy Michael Carrick. Small man, small club.
Other than for badness why do Chelsea want De Jong?
Where does he play? Is it a replacement for Kante who’s gone to shit or further forward?
He's a DLP in FM terms.
He'd be a hell of an upgrade on Kovacic. He looks a bit weedy for English football but being Dutch he probably has a bit of snarling wanker about him underneath (I'm probably seen him in a full game about 5 times max).
This is getting done then.
Is there anything to the Brobbey links? Bit lol if so.
The Noel Edmonds opening the door to 'Mr Brobbey' reveal video will be absolute fire.
Who/What is a Brobbey?
I'm sure United's new policy of sign the entire Ajax team won't backfire.
It's definitely going to work brilliantly just signing people ten Hag knows personally and definitely doesn't suggest that out scouts continue to steal a living.
They sacked a load of the senior members of the scouting department recently.
Rumours are that the plan is to let the manager, Murtough and a couple of others (Fletcher etc) pick the players this summer and then the REVAMPED scouting department will take on a greater role once it's in place. As usual, we shall see.
You should get someone like Rangnick in as a DoF to provide some big picture strategic overhaul.
I'm not convinced that an effective football club, and a corporate behemoth of the sort United are and want to continue being, can actually coexist. You need to give the football guys so much freedom to make decisions, and I'm not sure that's ever going to happen.
Eriksen on the face of it is a nonsensical piece of recruitment.
The ultimate issue is Joel Glazer still wants the final say on everything. Most of the time when our transfer business moves at glacial pace, you can be sure it's because of him. The De Jong deal genuinely seems to be Barca-side problems having said that.
Forest are recruiting well. I don’t rate Neco Williams at all but he should be adequate replacement for Spence, and Omar Richards seems a good bit of business. Plus Henderson from United in nets. Looks good. Taiwo Awoniyi too.
I’ve no idea about the others, mind. Apparently Moussa Niakhate was the captain of Mainz, so can’t be that bad,
I'm a twit
It shows the complete state of the English domestic market when Williams costs double the amount Richards does.
Forest doing well getting the ebony monsters in too but there's fuck all there to start with so no chance of staying up.
I find it hard to believe that someone called Brian Brobbey could be good. That's an Panathinaikos striker's name if ever I heard one.
Or an eastbound and down soccer edition character
Has he died?
The following media includes potentially sensitive content.
Why has the picture been flagged with that warning?
Because the algorithm does colour and shapes and has probably just detected an awful lot of skin-shaded colour in that and assuming it involves nudity.
Banners full of hate speech.
£47-50m for Sterling.
Murtough and Arnold are in Barcelona
Sancho crossing for a Rashford header in Bangkok
Take it to the football thread, cunt.
I have literally never heard of this person before.Nathan Collins, 21, will become the most expensive Irish footballer in history when he completes a £20.3m move from Burnley to Wolves this week.
That's some signing, looked better than Tarks and Mee and a physical monster at only 21.
Koulidaddy to Chelsea for €40m. Very good signing if it happens, even if he’s just turned 31. Still paves the way for Levi Colwill to come through who is gonna be mega.
You’d hope they don’t sign Ake now and go back to Kounde as they’ll have 4 left sided centre halves if Ake signs.
Cullen leaving Belgium to go shitkicking in the Championship is disappointing.
Dons signed your man Darragh Burns and are again linked with Devoy. Mandroiu seemed the more exciting prospect from clips and numbers but if we let Lincoln have him I assume he has flaws.
Once again the Dons recruitment team are pulling up trees. Lost almost all talent from last season and from the looks of it, are doing an exciting af job in replacing them all for bargain value. Liam Sweeting, remember the name when he's tasked (and succeeds) in restoring Man Utd.
Louie Barry looks on the cusp of a loan deal too.
Chelsea after Koulibaly and Arsenal after Paqueta.
He's both Brazillian and has shit facial hair so he's nailed two of Edu's KPMs
Jeff Hendrick's off to Reading for a season. I don't expect him back. Ciaran Clark is off to THE MIGHTY BLADES in another loan deal. I don't honestly see us doing much more business.
Raphinha to Barca HERE WE GOed
I literally have zero fucking idea about anything to do with Barcelona. Their journalists are all banter merchant frauds.
De Jong SEEMS to be on, but who knows.
De Jong is going to end up at United.
It's obviously just taking him a bit of time to come to terms with the fact.
The Italians don’t half like to buy from the Cinch Premiership recently.
Martinez to United looks like it'll be done imminently.
