I was expecting a picture of Ole and Phelan in Portugal watching the game, but no picture provided. Such a bold statement there or probably just to attract viewer.
Dont forget that 1980's super-duper data collecting computer they occasionally harp on about. That thing needs to watch game too.

Redcafe went down for a minute and I thought it crashed cos we signed someone and the place lit up.

Turns out we're not even interested in Bruno Fernandes. Great.

Can you imagine if we end up paying the same amount we would have in the summer
In Glazers heads its 6 months wages saved!

In reality...its top 4 at jeopardy, FA Cup on ropes, League Cup on the deck.

If we had Fernandes I'm sure we'd be comfortably in top 4.

We should have got rid of Mata and Lingard and then even on wages we would probably be net favourable.

If the chukaweze links to liverpool are true, just shows how much better they are at identifying targets that will fit them, and in this case going after them...

They actually have their shit together as a club. Chelsea were linked with him yesterday too.

It is mental. We’ve gone from apparently being able to do things in the transfer market other clubs couldn’t dream of to not being able to recall Chris fecking Smalling from a loan. Ed really is a buffoon.

Piatik at 30 million is a no brainer, he's obviously had a bad season but so have all the Milan team. He looked an absolute goal machine season's past.

Am I mad to think that the lack of transfer activity may mean that the owners are close to selling the club? I seriously hope so. The Net spend across the last 4 windows is certainly reducing a lot.

Just dont understand why we arent after him - such a cheap and proven goalscorer in Serie A.

Yes, he has had a patchy form lately, but so has his whole team.

If he struggles in a dysfunctional side why on earth would you want him here?

There's people in life who have a miraculous ability to fail upwards in their careers and no more does that seem to be evident than the current leadership of Manchester United.

:lol: we just got the scout report land on his desk it was being typed up since the summer. Fair play though they’re getting ahead of it this time :rolleyes:
I thought this. Linked with him last summer. He started crying in a preseason game which suggests he was moving. We have had another 4 months to scout him. Only in January when the window opens does our management decide to look at him first hand. Surely they should go scout him in November / December time so we are ready to negotiate when the window opens? The whole club is run by morons.

As I can see, non of the top English clubs made any signings, all are at the same stage basically... so stop the panic

They have got an identity and a style of play that they know which players will suit their system. It’s been instilled at that club for quite some time.

Ours is well... “We are Man Utd and full of smiley faces”

Why? Should we stop our scouting efforts in January just because people will make silly assumptions based on someone from the club being at a game?
If they'd done their job properly, they wouldn't need to scout him now or whoever they're scouting. This would have been done before January and they would have been sure enough to have agreed a deal already.
