That's because out of those 3, possibly only Telles goes into our best XI (although Pogba is trying his best to excuse himself). And that's still not good enough as our first XI is producing stinker after stinker.
Jadon Sancho| Staying at Dortmund for now

I would be surprised if Dortmund doesn't raise the asking fee
I agree. I really do think we need Sancho and a centre back. Even Telles doesn't come straight into the line up
Sancho won't let them. Provided that we actually bid
To be fair, Dortmund can do what they want. We won't like it,neither will Sancho, but they can do it.
Yeah I don't have expectations of Telles being a huge upgrade over Shaw, particularly as we are suddenly very fragile defensively.
Must be Sancho, right? Right?Tweet

It's so on.
Shaw has had a poor start to the season. Definitely under threat.
I'm kind of hoping it's grealish!
Cavani and Telles
We haven't announced Cavani or Telles so it's probably just them 2. Which really won't be near enough
I guess it’s just Telles and Cavani
The feck are you lot on about? We’re already aware that it’s Cavani?
Of course we will know more tomorrow night. It's a nothing statement to get excited over.
Cavani and Telles won't bring us near closer so tomorrow bid going to be a stomach punch

Heard Ole say this myself, and wondered it was weird that he said an addition, not additions.
5:05
Because in his head we already have Cavani and Telles. Its about Sancho imo
You are seriously over-rating Telles. He is back up to Shaw. Shaw is our No.1 LB.
Agreed
You're seriously underestimating Telles and overrating Shaw. Shaw will be benched fairly soon once Telles is in.
Knowing how Woodward's going to want to deflect he will probably sack Ole and say the funds are not available for Sancho as they have to pay off Ole
That's obviously not about Sancho
And Glazers are to blame. Edwin would only come in as a ceo
Telles is miles better
Shaw will probably keep the spot until Telles is settled but long term planning Telles will be first choice
How on earth are people getting from his comments that it's about Sancho. It's not happening, stop getting people's hopes up.
Who is it about?
? I said I don't think he will be a huge upgrade over Shaw. We have started to shockingly from a defensive point of view , we may need to have Shaw to help out more rather thaj an attack minded LB. Unless Ole solidifies the midfield and defence
This is not happening. Probably won't even happen next summer, because it's looking increasingly likely that Ole won't survive this season.
Still, a lot of things can change in a year. We'll see.

I don’t think Ole is referring to Sancho. I think he knows it’s not happening. I think it’s more likely he’s referring to Cavani, who hasn’t been officially confirmed yet. I hope I’m wrong, but I just can’t see Sancho joining on the last day of the window.
The fact that we are still 'interested' and are still considering this has to make you feel that Dortmund will sell for the right offer. If we were told categorically he was going nowhere then we would have moved on...
The noises that we are still trying are encouraging IMO.

There’s so much wrong at the club even signing Sancho will provide a boost for a while until it all falls apart again. I hope I’m wrong.
Tomorrow gone suck, I just feel it in my gut.
Yeah there's no way, regardless of just how inept Ed is, that we would still be sucking up this negative press regarding this transfer if we didn't have confidence that they will sell for the right price.
We should know by lunchtime GMT tomorrow if this is coming together or not.
No mate, you are going to enjoy it
I agree, it will end with a fizzle and not a bang.
Exactly. There is still a chance.
Sorry I meant players brought in rather than homegrown.
Not necessarily young but on the younger spectrum
As soon as he says ‘addition’ he very briefly looks to his right. Which, from calculating where he’s sat, is in the general direction of Dortmund.
This is so on
