It's happening. Now.
Ole's at the wheel. Bruno's the deal.

He will cost more now, his release clause was lower in the summer.
What was his release clause in the summer? Most reports are suggesting fees significantly lower than his current release clause.
55 mill pounds is being cited as what United is paying now. Not sure what the price was in the summer.
Would prefer either of them to be honest. Would probably cost more though
If YouTube is really important to you i've got one of Anderson that will knock your socks offNot exactly the most encouraging video
50-55m (like Stone said in the clip above) doesn't sound too bad. Thought he'd be more expensive, given it's the January window and all.
And neither are attainable now.
Atleast he can replace Sanchez in the Oles at the wheel chant
Maddison is far more equipped to play as an 8 than Bruno Fernandes would be IMO. Bruno is pure #10 for me. Wouldn't work with him deeper.
Sure Martial and Rashford will be happy to get some decent service. Maybe their runs will be noticed now.
This is a good point.
Regarding the unearthing of gems - we don't do that. Our scouts haven't unearthed a gem in several years, which leads me to believe that they too, are (massively) under performing.
He already looks depressed.
When we were linked with him in the summer it was rumoured to be 50m, he then signed a contract extension which supposedly raised it to 85m. @SportingCP96 should be able to clarify.
If we get him for 55m that's some great negotiation by Woodie, or we could be sending a player as part of the deal.
It seems like it would be a good signing but as you say why have we delayed from the summer when he needed him? Now the season has become a rescue mission if he joins.
To be fair he always looks like he's about to cry
Probably true
Because of a player who will likely shoot everytime he’s within 40 yards of goal?
We have not yet signed him (hopefully we will).
We haven't seen him play in the EPL.
We haven't see him play in our team.
We need to wait for several things to happen before we can judge how good he will play with Martial and Rashford.
People need to realise that he is not a Messi or Ronaldo type player who have the ability to win a game almost single handedly. He is merely a good player for another team and there are no guarantees on how good he would be for us.
Miki was the player we were crying out for (the best creative goal creator in Germany), yet a year or so later, he was finished.
Will we be able to play him against Norwich already?
So he will replace Lingard/Mata?
If so, I'm all for it.
Not like we need more players to work well in counterattack, we're perfectly fine at fast paced countering
would be if it wasnt contradicting since he wants to unearth a unknown gem from weaker french league
He was available for £58m(€65m). Spurs offer collapsed due to them wanting to pay €20m in PL + CL winning add-ons. Their president confirmed it a few months ago.

Have we even prepared the bid yet?
it's being strongly considered
We need bodies through the door and he's the type I don't mind taking a punt on.
Lingard could do a job for Sporting. I´m actually serious.
If this comes off then it’s going to be a definite upgrade on where we are - Portuguese players generally adapt very well to the PL - but when your being compared to Matic or J-Lingz then the level you need to arrive at ain’t high - I’d be really happy with this signing as this is a guy who knows how to find the back of the net.....
Poch wanted him in the summer at Spurs. We are talking to Poch and forward planning for his arrival by signing players he likes.
Maybe. Maybe not.
Bernardo does too, so that is a good sign
Actual links?
Threadmarks?
Threadmarks?
In the same way City did with Pep when he was at Bayern.
Its on
48 hours to go
Or we can just never sing that chant again because it's toss! Well I hope we don't anyway.
After strongly considering it they will have to seriously consider it.
Same, something about Grealish especially has Man Utd written all over him
According to The Athletic, they wanted 70 in the summer, but settles for 60 now. https://theathletic.com/1512735/2020/01/10/january-transfer-window-signings-tracker-2020/
