So once again they’ve had to offer far more than we did to get their man. Even more hilarious that he used to play for them and was idolised by their fans so much but they still had to chuck a shit load more money at him to get him signed!

 

[BerkshireBlue]

I'll slag him off as much as anybody but make no mistake he automatically makes them very, very dangerous now.

unfortunately this is true

We was his first choice.
Remember that folks.
The rags have got sloppy seconds again.

They need to strengthen in other positions so why sign the prancing egotist. Can only affect the chances of Greenwood, Rashford and Sancho along with pissing off the diving, whining rat that is Fernandes as he will not get near the free kicks and penalties now

 

[Cornish_Blue]

He’s just been found out as a mercenary.
£480,000 per week!
There’s no way he’s going there for the exciting technical football.
If that’s the reason we didn’t get him, I am glad. There’s no way he’s worth that wage bill.
Interesting to see how those figures are ‘massaged’ by Ushited.
I’m now going to assume ‘multi billions of dollar debt’ doesn’t feature in FFP.

despise them with all my heart, but what a feeling it must be for united fans right now. sheer deflation to sheer euphoria in a matter of hours. Crazy day

 

[manimanc]

Short memories.

 

[hertsblue]

Must admit they should be challenging for the title as had a very good transfer window plus the usual favours they get by officials. Hard to see past them or Chelsea with us and dippers battling for 3rd this season

 

[ultimateharold]

Well anything less then an invincible quadruple is a failure now I guess for them. That's how it works right?

 

[the blue panther]

Good luck Cristiano - it may work out for you, but you wasted 3 years at Juventus; now are you wasting your final days at United? I honestly can't see you cleaning up the trophies there.

Good luck to Ollie at the wheel too, keeping a lid on that squawky lot - Ronnie; Pogba; Sancho; Fernandez; Cavani; Rashford; Martial; Greenwood. Should be good when they get drawn away at Stoke on a wintry Tuesday night in the cup. Mind you, they have still got Lingard and Phil the Face.

They're gonna be even more unbearable than usual for a bit, aren't they?

 

[yeseye]

City have played an absolute blinder here imo.

 

[citytill1die84]

That was a quick confirmation

They cheer about signing has beens.
We cheer about winning trophies.
That's the difference.

£480k a week. LOL fuck that. Glad we walked away from this one.

Geriatrics FC.

Thick giddy reds...................poor bastards

The good news is, while Ronaldo is still quite good, this makes absolutely no sense for them.

 

[dhruvblue]

They are a good side, Ronaldo adda experience and fight In them. Young squad and they have added Sancho and Varane. We will see but they are contenders even with Noddy being a there.
As for fans, there will not be any more protests.
Green and Gold on Hold

I couldn’t disagree more… Massive opportunity to destabilise them and we blew it
