    Isn't it because Asensio is crocked so now they actually need to play him?

    Loads of chatter today about Bruno Fernandes to United. Not from anyone remotely reliable, but fingers crossed.

    Ah, now onto the unreliable sources.

    Just start copy-pasting the BBC gossip column and the transition is complete.

    Yes. He's so far been spot on on everything.

    Would expect Maguire and Bruno Fernandes to be at United before the end of the window.

    Wasn't Fernandes supposed to be flying in to sign about a fortnight ago? You were tracking his plane like a kid using that NORAD thing that shows you where Santa is.

    The flight tracking is a bit of fun/nonsense. That didn't come from this guy.

    What?

    About 10 other players have been public knowledge to definitely be joining United. The only ones he's said we're signing are the ones we've signed. He's said Maguire will happen and Bruno is likely.

    He keeps harping on about THE GOD OF ALL ITK'S who never gets anything wrong but barely says anything.

    Apparently, all these other ones are people who get things wrong a lot for people being so ITK.

    I mean he called Dalot and James long before it was in any of the papers (or on twitter), if you want to play this game.

    He first posted about James on the 10th of May. I'll wait for you to find the BBC article from then or before.

    I’m not going out of my way to find it so I just did a basic search on twitter. Here’s ‘the Florida post’ mentioning it on... the 10th of May.

    https://twitter.com/thefloridapost1/...365684224?s=21

    Now I wouldn’t want to doubt their itks but...

    Appears it was on sky sports according to this tweet on the 10th May from a Newcastle fanzine

    On Arsenal defence - it's an absolute joke is what it is. The "Best" player is Holding who have so far only showed a hint of maturity for about half a season. Him and Sokratis should form a decent, above mid-table pair, but not top 4 stuff. Bellerin is OK at times, but he's really a wingback. And injured half of each season. He just defends a fair bit better than Kolasinac which isn't really saying that much. He still makes some massive mistakes every few games. Maintland-Niles being considered a fullback is about as crappy as the attempts to play Oxlade - Chamberlain, Reiss Nelson and others in wingback positions have been in the past few years. It'll be a waste of his talents, in the end. Chambers has been "maybe a talent" for like 3 years now. How can a defensive player who played for Fulham last year have had a "pretty successful season"?

    Left back let's just not even talk about that. The best option remains Monreal and that's telling a lot, as he peaked maybe 4 years ago.

    He's always been highly buttock-dependent. Those chunky cheeks drive his ridiculous acceleration and strength on the ball. Rest of him has always been a bit suggestive of continental breakfasts.

    Ruud van Nistelrooy definitely bought into things. That time they got showed up 3-1 at Madrid he was Roy Keane-like in his own way. It's probably Paul Ince, since anyone Alex Ferguson liked would get a pass, and the last six years can just be written off.

    If ever there was a player that Fergie tolerated as a means to an end it was Paul Ince.

    I only read it recently, but there is a good Guardian read from a few years ago about United and Liverpool in the nineties that covers that stuff well.

    The Barcelona game was the beginning of the end of Ferguson’s relationship with Ince. “You fucking bottler, Incey! You can’t handle the stage, can you?” was Ferguson’s half-time observation. When Ince replied, “Don’t you dare call me a bottler, don’t you dare,” Ferguson walked purposefully over to Ince and hissed in his face, “You are a fucking bottler!” The pair had to be separated by Steve Bruce and Brian Kidd. The Liverpool game, four months later, confirmed Ferguson’s judgement that Ince was getting ideas above his station. Ince struggled to stick to instructions to stay on the left of midfield to neutralise Steve McManaman. When he went on a run of his own down the United right, the ball was headed clear to McManaman, who ran into the space left by Ince to start the move that led to Jamie Redknapp’s first goal. “I sensed that he no longer wanted to be the anchor-man in midfield, where there was none better at the job,” Ferguson wrote later. “It was clear to me that he now saw himself as an attacking midfield player, which was a hopeless misreading of his strengths.”

    The thought of him steaming over, probably in his short-sleeve shirt and tie, and getting in his face is hilarious. Which takes us back to Ferguson being a massive let down in retirement. Imagine the book he could write if he wanted to let it all out.
