Get a feeling United are going to get bloody annoying by the end of this window.
If you were to believe whats written in the media, United would have a squad size of over 200 players!. Bit difficult shoe horn this into a squad of 25.Expect to see United linked to every good player this summer, they have money and need a big rebuild, agents / clubs will use them the same way we've been used over the years for new contracts.
Do people really think a young Argentinian player is going to sign for OGS to play in the Europa league rather than for his compatriot Poch in the CL?
They’re also the perfect agent fodder to prod negotiations and get a club worried about price haggling. Bit shite, expected turnover on roster, loads of money, easy to just toss into the fill-in-the-blank transfer stories.Get a feeling United are going to get bloody annoying by the end of this window.

You want to know what's less funny than Levy being Levy? People rolling out the same fucking tired old fucking jokes in every thread when we're linked to a player.'Sorry, thanks for the offer and all those wages and bonuses Ole, but it's a no from me, I'm going wait and see if Danny Levy can match the fee before August.'

Madrid announced both Hazard & Jovic while on international duty.Presume this wont be concluded either way until after the COPA now? May as well take a couple of weeks off and save ourselves the daily anguish...
/watch every Argentina game and hope he doesn't get injured nor plays too well that he attracts more attention..!

This is our biggest problem. We never take responsibility for getting players in. It's always something or someone else's fault.International duty is a top-tier transfer window excuse. It's 2019, there's no reason these things can't be done wherever, as other clubs prove.

United are in a similar position to us on the recruitment front with them needing an overhaul. But at least they know they have a problem. We're still in denial.
I fear it's going to need us to come crashing down to earth with a big reality check for us to realise.
Clubs miss out on players all the time. Even the likes of Man City and Real Madrid can't always have their way. It's not embarrassing, it's business.It would be embarrassing for Spurs to miss out on Ndombele and Lo Chelso now. We've pinned our colours to the mast and said, "These are the players we are after...."
If we don't now secure their respective services, how's it going to look to the football world? Embarrassing.
No way we don't get them both.

My point on Utd is potentially backed up by the fact that they are exploring recruitment restructuring options. Now whether that will work or not is irrelevant. The point is to be trying to change things they are acknowledging there's a problem. Despite the failure of the last two windows we've seen no evidence thus far of a concrete change in approach, whether that's for example a DOF coming in or officially confirming signings that we as a club would previously never be able to make.Hold on, i've got to pull you up on this.
Yes we have made mistakes in the past with transfers, especially the last 2 seasons, but to say we are in denial?? What gives you that idea??
We are normally sporadically linked with 10's maybe 100's of players every window. Currently we are constantly being linked with 2 players, daily, Ndom and Le Celso. ITK have backed this up, they have also backed up the funds aspect. The papers are actually mentioning proper figures in their reports.
This never happens with us this early on. So to me, this shows we are not in denial, it shows that Poch knows what areas that need sorting, it also shows that (at the minute) Daniel Levy is backing his manager seriously.
Sorry to pick on you, but you were the last post and it boiled my piss!!
If Utd agree a fee and we don't he won't have a choice. Also, Betis to Man Utd is still a pretty decent career move for any footballer.
