I think it actually means; this deal is going to happen, the agreement is so much that this deal is going to happen in the next few days/hours, no condition.
Fabrizio Romano always use that term to confirm the deal is done. The player’s agent probably told him that deal is done but they didn’t tell him the number and told him to wait for few hours for the numbers.

What a window so far

2 key players both world class at the top of their game for around £120 million is absolutely brilliant business.

Now a DM and we're in heaven.
Hmm I think getting a DM is vital but lots of names being banged around, there should be a poll started with the top 6 names. Who you think we should get? Or who do you think we'll end up with.

You did precisely what I expected those of your point of view would do, you and the full moon sized chip on your shoulder.
So what did I do precisely that you expected, Nostradamus? Call you out for baiting with no reasonable cause?

Is it near plane tracker time? He should be leaving Madrid imminently if reports are true.

I don't know if there is enough left in the kitty to sign a DM as well, not without selling Pogba anyway.

Time is a healer.

Please god no.
feck it lets get kante too! #bigbag

For whatever reason he sets off alarm bells for me. Especially when you put him with the defenders we already have.
Quite a few people getting added to the list of people who don't deserve to enjoy Varane when he signs.

Extremely over rated and relies on pace - considering he's injury prone too, not much of an upgrade on Bailly apart from aerially.

Not worth it unless very cheap.
Wow, we really pulled it off.

At the end of the season I said Sancho + Varane and i'd be really happy. Can't believe we've genuinely got them both :D

Anything on top of this now will be a bonus. We really will have a great team this season.

If he said ‘’here we go’’ it means done deal, don’t you know that? He doesn’t say it unless if it’s done deal.
My gosh. All this energy to hate on a reporter. Just enjoy the news.
I don't hate anyone and this isn't exactly costing me very much energy-wise but thanks for the concern. Giving him credit for this is a bit much in my view but carry on.

You know what this statement means.

Plan the parade!
I'll be delighted when it's finally announced by the club. Many a slip and all that but it looks as good as done. :D

AWB-Varane-Maguire-Shaw, what a back line! And Lindelof as 3rd choice now is a perfect fit for him and gives us so much more flexibility. What a signing.

He may have to quarentine which means he will do the medical in Spain but no one knows for sure on that one

Is Varane a boyhood United fan? Why is Solskjaer of all managers such a big pull for him? :lol:

Not that I'm complaining, Rafa feckin Varane is a red :drool:

Fergie tried to sign him 10 years ago and we've been in contact with his agent for years it seems. Seem's Madrid's decline, United's resurgence and Ole seem to have been enough to convince him in the end
