I'm posting this Tweet as it talks about Milik:

On Milik:
The transfer window is still open. Considering that 80% of the transfer happens in the last week of the window, we are still confident we can close a signifcant deal both for us and for him.

I can see Pereira, Smalling and Romero leaving. Whoever gets Romero is getting a better deal than us out of it. Dalot out on loan somewhere. Lingard and Jones staying.

Lingard could turn it around ... and go back to being a 4 / 10 player instead of a 2 / 10 player. Lucky us. Really worth sticking by him and hoping he can return to the heights of being bang average.

Well of course Jones will be staying. Who the f*ck would take him? Let's just keep handing him 5 year contracts after a couple of decent games and then spend the next 4 years desperately trying to get rid of him. Rinse repeat.

Ducker confirms the prices for both Ruben Dias and Nicolas Otamendi.

Otamendi will give City 13.7 million Pounds (15 million Euros).

Personally I think Smalling is unlucky to be out the door before some others but in the end all 3 of those CB's need to go soo might as well get it done. Ole needs to realize this is Lingard's standard, his purple patch was ages ago.

Is Ole hoping he can turn it around because he has been told Utd will take up lingaard optional year extention to keep his transfer fee value up? That would be typical woodward.

Every time he's tweeted about Telles he mentions the 2nd mysterious option.
Personally feel like he’s just covering his arse in case Telles doesn’t sign and we sign someone else; then he’ll come out and say he knew it all along.

Every single tweet about Telles he brings up that second option. The mystery option who’s name will not be revealed unless completely necessary.
I think he's predicting we'll go for this mystery option, that's why he's not revealing it yet. I still think it's Tagliafico, it makes a lot of sense, we have a good relationship with Ajax, he's not got long left on his contract and we've already been in contact with them this summer due to Donny.

Mykolenko is another possible option but hear he is more of a defensive one who attacks sometimes but don't know whether or not that is right of course

It's Mykolenko, has been quietly linked for some time. Great engine, not as creative as Telles, but probably better defensively.

You can't upset the Romano fanboys with facts like this mate. They will have you killed.

Exactly why is he refusing to name this mysterious third target? It makes no sense at all. He's absolutely full of crap. He said we were signing Reguilon on the day he joined Spurs and apparently it never even got close to us as Utd were never entertaining the release clause from the very off.

He's got United news wrong all summer. Badly wrong in fact.

This deal is as dodgy as the Arthur-Pjanic one. There’s no way Otamendi is worth that much and not a chance Benfica would ever spend that much on a 32 year old on high wages. This is City’s way of getting Dias for around 50 odd million £, whilst also helping their accounts. I would say UEFA should investigate it but we all know how that ends.

Lingard can turn it around he's still very young.
Lingard is 28 in December. He’s reached his level while at United. If he got back to his form under LVG he’d be an average squad player at best.

This is another example like the tweet about Burnley's 'big club tax' that wouldn't apply to the rest. Norwich would be quoting 30m+ from Pool or United if they showed an interest.
I don’t agree that Liverpool get quoted the same as United. You were quoted 15m for their leftback and didn’t go for it. He went for the same price to Newcastle

I agree

Knowing the board, he will get a big fat contract, end up retiring at 34 years at United, get into a coaching role leading to him becoming the united manager, end up being our director of football, and then finally an ambassador over 60. Which is still very very young.


That will be our Jesse, young and united forever.

It's why Kounde/Koulibally couldn't get done I think. They needed to get rid of one of their CBs also. Lucky for them that they can get rid while we can't.

So much wrong with this post, it's hilarious.

He updated our abysmal Sancho chase way before any UK media outlet did.

Regullion was simple we would pay for him but wouldn't accept the buy back clause. So spurs swooped in and accepted the clause we wouldn't, nowhere did he say we had signed him (I checked his tweets) simply the fact we had a clause issue that still remained as a stumbling block.

Bang on with Van de Beek at every step.

Third LB? Have you considered that he genuinely doesn't know who it is... Maybe we just have a backup for Telles, make sense to have several potential targets for one position.

Intrigued at your 'badly wrong' claim, I'm far from his fanboy but you seem to hold a personal dislike for him.
