Ole did mention I believe that United would look to replace any players we sell? Or am I mistaken. Maybe they see Dybala as a forward and not an addition to the Mata squad.

Is Woodward the manager ?
If it clicked? Top would be achievable.
We will not have that line up though. Woodward is in charge.
No, he's the guy that has sanctioned or blocked transfer targets under 4 consecutive managers which he appointed and led us to a jumbled squad of dreadful balance. Hes the guy who fails to get many targets over the line and will likely do this summer too.
How many times did Ole mentioned that he wanted players before preseason?
In how many pressers he keeps reiterating that he would like 2 more players?
When Ole was caretaker, who handed extensions to Rojo, Smalling and Jones?
You can't defend Woodward's failings when it comes to backing the manager
I am pretty sure we tried, but Dybala said he wants CL. So Spurs it is.
Dybala is Argentinian
Yes James , Axel, Angel ,Mason and Chong are all terrible
He knew full well I was on about those lot, that are more likely to start than the youngsters.
I 100% respect your opinion but don't agree with it. They may have spent money before but it was wasted. I think the are reluctant to much spend due to this incase it happens again. If this is the case I think this further highlights the need for a DoF/technical director, which if bought in earlier wouldn't have resulted in us wasting millions in the first place. I think Woody thinks we have a good enough squad anyway, hence the reluctance to not spend what is needed in key areas of the squad. If/when we hire a DoF, the DoF and Ole would be able to work together on which areas of the team we need to improve in and find the players who fit the profile of players we need for these areas then all Woody would have to do is work on getting these players in, negotiating their contracts and then he can concentrate on the commercial aspects which he is good at. I believe that Woody has so much faith in his own football knowledge that he is unwilling to take the advice of people who know more about football than him.
Dyabala for Lukaku would be insane.
It's simply too good to ever be true, the idea people would be against it is crazy.
Spurs have had a similar window to us. Ndombele plus a young championship prospect yet I keep seeing people talk about how spurs mean business or are opening a gap on us. They also look likely to lose their best player. Perhaps they'll do more but so far a poor window for both
That is one hell of an over active imagination right there.
But they've not needed to have a great window due to having a strong squad already? Not sure why so many people want to compare our lack of activity with our rivals, most of them simply don't need to do a lot, we bloody do and we've dropped the ball again.
just waking up to the Lukaku for Dybala rumors, I haven't laughed as much since Gerrard slipped, if you think this is going to happen, give your head a wobble! Player swaps are worse than transfers and aren't the easiest to pull off

No of course and I've no real will to compare, I'm talking specifically about those who have been quick to praise spurs or envy their window which has so far been just OK.
So Spurs get linked to Dybala, and later that same day he gets linked to Utd? Funny that.
I'd agree their window specifically hasn't been anything special thus far, certainly not envy worthy, unless they pull something big out in the last few weeks. Would have loved Ndombele though.
Insanely good.

God I hate this team. Can't wait until San Jose gets a DP next year
Good transfer for them. Pavon will piss that league. Some good players from Argentina going to MLS in recent years.

Bruno Fernandes is preparing to fly to the UK to undergo a Manchester United medical, according to reports in Italy.
Corriere dello Sport claim the Red Devils have agreed a £63m fee with Sporting Lisbon to land the free-scoring playmaker.
Wonder if the Glazers are now using the NHS rather than private healthcare and he’s now on a waiting list for a medical...
All quoting the same shite source.
Think we only value him at that because we got ripped off in the first place and don't want to lose face by taking a big loss on him.
Well he did also say when asked about replacing Herrera that we have McTomminay and Perreira to plug that gap, so I take it all with a pinch of salt.
Although I would really like this to happen I think its a load of crap as its the Mirror quoting Corriere dello Sport.
Preparing to fly. He's at home now rolling his socks up into little balls and pushing them into his shoes to save packing space, and then going to his kitchen to dig out a clear plastic bag for toiletries. there's either a medical or not and if so when is it. These stories are transparent bullshit
there's either a medical or not and if so when is it. These stories are transparent bullshitYeah not getting my hopes up either. Its literally one or two sentences about Bruno in a story about SMS.
Not so long ago Juventus were to slap a €150m-€200m price tag on Dybala. Think he is worth £70-80m for sure.
Newspapers really are an odd thing arent they?
They've literally spewed the same crap about Fernandes for 6 weeks now, but they never get held accountable when they're just clearly making stuff up. He's signed for us 8 times in the last few weeks. God knows how many medicals he's had!

could we actually have an exciting finish to this dull transfer window? can't help but get a little giddy
They even framed his picture travelling, en-route, somewhere behind the wheel of a car: "Is the midfielder Carrington bound, all set for his pending medical?" Oh course he fecking isn't.

Hmmm...looks like L'Equipe were correct for a change.
If Arsenal do better business than us it will be hysterical.
Possibly. I just don't understand though - they've been struggling all window with the likes of Tierney and Zaha and now they want to pay €80m for Pepe.
Something not right there in my opinion.
Arsenal somehow pulling a decent transfer window out of their arse at the last minute.
