Oh I get you now. I should wear the rose-tinteds and never have an impartial opinion.
You're why it can be hard to be a United fan around other supporters.

Either the papers reporting that Madrid turned down 80m from us are wrong or the papers reporting they agreed on 58m with Chelsea are wrong. It just can't be both.
Its the ones behind Lukaku that need to pick up the slack as we will only play with one striker most games. We need Miki Mata Martial Rashford Pogba Herrera Fellaini Periera New players reserves (Ibra?) and defence can chip in with 55-60 goals between them
We're the reigning champions, ffs. No, I don't think the club would get caught up in petty shite like "getting one over" on United.
Did we want Lukaku? I'm sure we did. Were we caught off guard by United's sudden interest and transfer? Yes. But I don't think our board members rang up some journalists and made sure it got out there that we payed much less for Morata than you payed for Lukaku.
Because it's impossible United got the shaft from Madrid?
Yeah doesnt matter what league a player scores goals in. by the way how about that Matthew godden maybe we should buy him for 70m, 81 goals in 182 league games. Only 25!
You can't just pretend the goals were not scored! By all means say "58 goals in the top division".
Enjoy our sloppy seconds Chelsea.
Bang goes Real's chance of ever signing De Gea now
Madrid lowered the price after no one would match it even Chelsea but they need to sell for mbappe
They did now
...Morata would be great signing for Chelsea everyone knows but not for 90 m euros madrid were quoting bullishly, because that would be a risk.
He'll replace Costa with ease.
Feck Chelsea
I think Madrid overplayed their hand and our sudden move for Lukaku caught them off guard. So Chelsea could have been lucky that Madrid having missed on a big sale just a few weeks ago were easier to deal with this time around.
Then what was all the about Chelsea not wanting to pay the agent fee but Lukakus personal choice is Chelsea but agent is taking him to United briefing and matching uniteds bid in last phase.
If it wasn't for the fact that you're on a perenial windup I would actually question your sanity.
Boohoo.
It's slightly odd that both clubs appear to have gotten their second choice.
Rooney appears to have decided the fate of both.

Rooney and Perez
That sounds like complete bullshit that some people made up. It also makes zero sense as we've paid more money to agents than anyone else in the league recently.
Think it's likely that Chelsea have paid £58m (€65m) upfront, with bonuses taking it to €80m.
Sounds likely.
That's all because what happened with DDG situation, Perez the cnut wanted to take revenge I reckon. Never do business with those feckers.
The great relationship between United and Real continues! 
So Chelsea sign the player we want to sign and we sign the player they wanted to sign......
Makes sense. haha!
Makes sense. haha!
I definitely think it has had at least some part to play in this. And we will remember. De Gea is worth at least £100m if Real are the buyers. At least.
Good signing, he should suit them better than Lukaku. Will he be a success though? At the very least, RL has shown he can score 20+ Premier League goals.
I think Chelsea were haggling with Everton whilst we were haggling with Real and Mino stepped to whisper to Ed the fee Everton would accept and Ed realising that what Madrid wanted was in Lukaku territory ran it by Jose and as they say the rest is history...
Hope it worsens .The great relationship between United and Real continues!
Or more accurately, we signed the player Chelsea and us wanted to sign and Chelsea signed a player we chose not to sign.
Lads, none of yous have a clue who wanted what!
Kinda feel morata would be better for us and Lukaku better for Chelsea.
Ah well pressure on who to score the most

If I was coming on every week 3-0 up to Eibar I'd probably get a decent goal tally.
Doesn't really matter, no-one can refuse to sell to Madrid really (barring Barca), its probably the only club in the world that can generally sign any player they want and players view it as the pinnacle. Moving Madrid to United is a step down, very unlikely a starter at Madrid would want to move to United.
35,000 Bitcoins according to my mate.
Of course , when it's Chelsea addones won't we reported.
We can.
