There is an immense difference between the Glaswegian tyrant developing young talent and the Norwegian rent boy trying to do the same."Amad Diallo is someone they have scouted for quite a long time. He is very inexperienced. He has been at Atalanta for a while but he came over from the Ivory Coast.
He is the kind of player that Manchester United have been building towards signing - a young player that they can develop.
I hesitate to use the name Cristiano Ronaldo but they signed Ronaldo as a relatively young player, he was a little bit more experienced than Diallo but he too was 18 years old.
That is what Manchester United are working towards, this ability to bring in players and develop them into world stars who play for Manchester United.
That is the cultural reboot of United, which the club said they were working towards in the wake of Jose Mourinho's departure. That is what this kind of signing is aimed at.
Diallo's signing is more in line [with the cultural reboot] than someone like Edinson Cavani."
I hadn't thrown up in a long time as much as I just have. (Fake) Ronaldo was bought in the 00's, this is the 20's. Januzi, that Italian who once scored against Villa, Wellbeck, O'Shea etc. That conveyor belt has just continued to churn out star after star since then...not. Simon Stone may have been the scum press officer and still do the same job, but paid for by the BBC, but he is just the same as all those desperate fucks that infest twitter, BBC football and newspaper comments sections and those rag twats that text the BBC during matches and get their ridiculous southern/welsh/whatever comments printed out. Life is not great at present but they bloody well cheer me up.
