His math is correct if we have only 21 players that have to registered then we only need 4 home grown

Probably didn't think that Neves would be available, though.
Regarding Neves/Draxler/whatever midfielder not named Pogba we are being linked with, I only hope that if we don't sign Pogba we have alternatives lined up or in mind already. Really hope we don't put all our eggs in one basket again like we did under Moyes/LvG and are left scrambling if our first choice doesn't work out.
Every player from the Portuguese league is available for clubs like United.
Very good signing. They will draw a lot of attention from good, under the radar type players who want to play in England and play in the CL. Robbie Brady would be another great pick up.
Christ, it didn't it the Sun long to take the two stories from Portugal and make a United vs Liverpool story out of it.
Jose should make and exception to his earlier statement. One of my favourite young CMs and if will mean no heavy reliance on Rooney and keeping him from Liverpool I'm all for it.
He's not HG. Only been with United 2 years. To be HG need to have 3 years with the team before the age of 21.
By the time we lose Rooney and Carrick he will be.
Sidibé is on his way to Monaco for 13m and the loan of Rony Lopes.
Wow!
Somehow colored him wrong when fixing the post. Was supposed to be marked U21. Will fix.
The rumors about Neves stem from AS saying that Mendes is trying to sell him, thry obviously didn't know that Mourinho already said he's not buying anyone from the Portuguese league. This is a non-starter and I'm surprised RedCafe tweeted it.
Strange, he played as a LB predominately for Lille and yet Monaco just bought Benjamin Mendy. Sidibé has played as a right back a few times so wondering if this is Fabinhos replacement?
Anyone else finding City's signings and supposed targets strange? I was expecting them to go the Galactico route just like you guys with Mourinho are going. I've never even heard of these guys they're after...
Gundagon is a very good purchase. I'm sure they will sign some quality players this summer yet. If they get Laporte its a great buy too. They certainly need another CB and full back at a minimum. I'm not too daunted by KDB Augero Nolito given Augero is injury prone.. he'd run himself to the ground under Peps regime early on.
Bailey and Mkhkitryan are Galacticos?
I know, that was a strange reference. Zlatan granted. Perhaps he's talking about Pogba but we haven't even bid for him by all accounts
He is normally a rightback, so yeah he will replace Fabinho.
Dreams are welcome 
Which suggests to me that the Fabinho transfer will happen fairly soon. Only Napoli and United have been linked to him recently.
Laporte decided to stay at Bilbao and has signed a new contract with a higher buyout clause.
ugh. gross.Dreams are welcome
I think that he is leaving soon but he could be moved in midfield, Monaco need a DM.
Zlatan? Pogba?
True, I guess I was expecting them to go the United/Real Madrid route of targeting the biggest, sexiest names to make a splash. Suppose they still could do.
Bakayoko, Moutinho and Bennasser. You're right though, they need to replace Toulalan I didn't notice him leaving.
Moutinho is leaving too and Veloso replaced Toulalan.
