Guess Christmas did com early this year. Fasten your seatbelts, gentlemen.
Even if it doesn't turn out great, Ed will be happy.Some people are just miserable for miseries sake.
This may go either way. But for today at least ,we can be happy.
Good to see you finally come around! Why be negative about UnitedHope he can adapt. What a player he's been throughout his career.
Welcome!
They did, he didn't want to renew. PSG are naming a stand after him!But why didnt PSG renew his contract???
Preston North End- the original invincibles of English footballNothing wrong with PNE
This is a marketing dream for sure(Although I have never bought into the shirt sales theory especially as thatvdoesntveven account for the cannibalisation of our other players)Even if it doesn't turn out great, Ed will be happy.

Football finance expert Rob Wilson, of Sheffield Hallam University, says Ibrahimovic would be United's most marketable player since Cristiano Ronaldo, with shirt sales alone topping £50m - enough to cover the cost of failing to qualify for this season's Champions League.
"Zlatan has a global profile and global appeal," Wilson said. "Fans will buy shirts with Ibrahimovic on the back in Africa, South East Asia - markets United had a foothold in but not the leverage.
"Only a few select few players can do that: Gareth Bale, Neymar, Lionel Messi and Ronaldo."
That's not actually going to happen, is it?They did, he didn't want to renew. PSG are naming a stand after him!
Zlatan is more than a player.
No one announces Zlatan. Only Zlatan announces Zlatan.
I don't know how much more of this i can take.United have signed to play for Zlatan.
That's greatActual quote - "You think this is over, its far from over".
Zlatan can take more.I don't know how much more of this i can take.
Zlatan will decide how much. I kind of agree with you.I don't know how much more of this i can take.
Feck it, if Barca claim to be more than a club, Zlatan surely is more than a league.I don't know how much more of this i can take.
Zlatan will decide how much. I kind of agree with you.
United have signed to play for Zlatan.

This is what their owner said:That's not actually going to happen, is it?
Who knows if they'll actually go through with it. It would be amusing if they did though.Honestly one thing I forgot in my speech is that we're going to call one of the tribunes [stands] under his name...I hope that we did enough for him because he deserves always more.
Do we get anything from shirt sales? I was under impression kit manufacturer takes it all.Even if it doesn't turn out great, Ed will be happy.

This has come up before, yes we do.Do we get anything from shirt sales? I was under impression kit manufacturer takes it all.
Him and Mkhitaryan were involved in twice as many as our whole team. Hopefully that will show this coming season.Says more about how fecking shite we were last season in fairness.
Early days twiggy, plenty more bull to come.Zlatan's shirt sales cover the cost of us missing out on CL?
Never heard such bollocks in my life.
Surely "involved in" means goals, and assists? In which case you'd expect the entire United squad to outdo him there.Tweet

If Jesus walked on water then this is nada. Enjoy and believe and you feel so much better :-)Zlatan's shirt sales cover the cost of us missing out on CL?
Never heard such bollocks in my life.
Yes sceptical on that but will hopefully cover most of his wages though.Zlatan's shirt sales cover the cost of us missing out on CL?
Never heard such bollocks in my life.
If we count our assists to other teams you mean? Or do you want to count the 49 twice as each one had a goal and an assist.Surely "involved in" means goals, and assists? In which case you'd expect the entire United squad to outdo him there.
