Yesterday I thought one of their surprise signings was going to be Lemar, now it's Chupo Moting. What a downgrade of expectations
I think Choupo Moting fills the space of both backup striker and left winger. Though he isn't nearly as good as a LW as a striker (not that he's a great striker)
What if they bought Alain Saint Maximinum Wage from the Geordies?Yesterday I thought one of their surprise signings was going to be Lemar, now it's Chupo Moting. What a downgrade of expectations
Watch him score 10+ goals this season though.
Sane and Roca will be fine, at least for the league and future. CL is a different beast and difficult to win it again anyway.
As a back up for Lewa you'll get to start in about 3 games, with the rest of your appearances being 10min sub-ins. So you'll need someone who a) doesn't have a problem with that kind of station and b) still can make an impact in those few minutes.
Roca is a good signing. Would you be happy if your club were adding Cavani if you had our attacking options? Or is the meltdown completely unfounded. Interesting to get other fans perspectives on our dealings.
I have no idea in what shape Cavani is. But the guy knows where the goal stands, that's for sure. If he's still on the level physically, I'm sure he'll be good for you. He's a bully by nature, so I think PL football will suit him just fine.
Give them James, sign this guy instead. Former teammate of Bruno
That’s the big question. He hasn’t played for 7 months and his national coach has said he obviously isn’t the same physical warrior he was at 31. Hopefully he can adapt though.
Maybe we can ask the Manchester police if they know anything? Woodward might've told them that we aint buying no more players and that he could use some help...
My bad, cheers Actually didthe correct calculation, but ended up writing 10.8 instead of 20.8
. lols, Bielsa must have flat out told the hierarchy that he wants a new midfielder but he HAS to have a shitty beard like that. Dan James isn't quite there yet, beard wise.

Quality is generous in Joao Mario's case. Danilo is alright, good signing for them on a loan with option.
Quality? He's fecking shite
Danilo is good, they can have Marquinhos as a CB without putting him into DM

He has the greatest agent in the world I swear
Sorry I replied to the wrong quote. I was trying to reply to a question about announcing a signing on a match day.

What is up with him? He is average player at best but first he goes from Juve for 35mil and now after shambolic season in Everton he ends up in PSG
On this particular transfer, I'm firmly behind our stance. How can Porto justify asking £22m for a defensive player with 9 months left on contract. Unfortunately our poor planning means there is no alternative and Porto know that as well as Utd so in the end if we want cover for this position we will fork out.
Tell them to jog off.
Same was said after we signed VDB.......
We aren’t

I said I don't think so, I was disagreeing that there wouldn't be more signings.
Walk away, and either pick him up on a free in the summer or much cheaper deal in January (likely in the 5m-10m range)
how often have they reportedly "improved" their offer, and how often have they reportedly bid 15m? Feels like the same thing has been reported dozens of time this summer. No idea if we are being difficult or if Roma are just being cheap. Probably both. Either way, super tiresome "saga".
That's a fair offer, Porto have no hope of us meeting their asking price nor should we. I wonder who the backup option was Fabrizio Romano spoke about.
Taking the piss. He was among the best CBs in Italy last season! 20m is a very fair deal all things considered. If they don't want him enough then I'd be more than happy to have him in the rotation.
We haven’t exactly covered ourselves in glory this window; however, I do like the idea that potentially, somewhere, on an AS Roma forum not so far away, there are lots of their fans bemoaning their board and having tantrums over how long this deal has rumbled on. As, by feck, this one has been a drag from start to finish.
