Great signing! He has always been one of my most wanted CB whom I thought there’s no chance for him coming here. What a great summer with Sancho and Varane, 2 of the best player in their respective position.
Raphael Varane | Signed for United!

Ass pubes as a penance
It's only fair. Take some Gaviscon afterAss pubes as a penance
Why not?
Maybe it occurs to seasoned professionals how good of a manager Ole and not some armchair manager like you or I?
Massive signing for a massive club, been nice to see we can still attract some of the best players in Europe and credit to Ole for developing a promising football project.
Maguire + Varane should be one of if not the best backline pairing the league once they get a good feel and understanding for each other.
Been a pleasant surprise seeing the club moving efficiently and with urgency in the market. Like a serious club for a change

HUGE HUGE signing. Feels bigger than the Sancho signing, probably because we knew for a long time that Sancho was coming but only started to believe in Varane deal a few weeks ago.
I feel this really changes a lot of things. On paper we now have a very strong defence with what should be the best CB partnership since Vidic and Rio. Both Harry and Rafa are 28, in their prime. Will only be in their prime for next couple of years and then hopefully at very high level for a couple of years afterwards. I feel that as a club we really have to target and win the big trophy’s in the 4 year window.
I think this will have a bearing on other transfer now too and I wonder if it’s why we are now being linked to mids like Neves and Saul. We need players that are going to be at the peak of their powers while we have this defence behind them.
Also I’m more confident that we will get more players in both in this window and next summer. There’s no point in taking another 3,years to complete the rebuild if our world class CB,s are ageing at that stage.
Very exciting times.

No sleep till Varane!
Eat...no sleep.... Varane.... repeat
That kit suddenly looks alot nicer
For all we know he likes Ole because Ole talked to him with respect and has shown that he wants him. What’s wrong with that? Actually it’s a nice change

Hold Me
Is this the signing that paves the way for a more balanced middle 3? Will he trust this two now and play only one of McFred in most games?
Only know about the latter because he's sometimes on Guardian Football Weekly podcast. Half his takes are awful.

Unlucky, I've had a calm three weeks knowing this one was in the bag.
Line 'em up. Who's next please?
Why not? Ole clearly has the ability to motivate this group of players, everyone looks very happy to be here and playing under him and he never says anything bad about his squad in public and has the club on an upward trajectory. As a player, all of those things are appealing, especially the environment in and around the club.
I've finally caught up and I thought I'd seen all the tweets but where has this €10m signing on bonus come from? I know he's gonna get bonuses if we win stuff but I didn't see anything about that.

It's borne out of Arsenal fan's distress at paying more for Ben White than we did for a 4x CL and World Cup winner.
Basically, it's made up to make them feel a bit better about their sorry shit stain of a club.
Just around what Cavani earns
Don't understand why they are concerned with us. Should be worried about what likes of Aston Villa and West Ham are buying
We are always in their brains (what's left of them anyways). Poor things.
You forget who you're talking to? Like eating a bowl of shit is a bad thing?
I was just hedging my bets brother.
Win win.
Nom nom!
Totally agree, I reckon it's Maguire's hair he likes.
Complements boys. Compliments are when you say something nice about someone or something.
Been alive for 21 years and never knew that there was another word for compliments
it's just that I haven't seen such a long post from you in a while, so I figured you might have felt this one a bit.It's not another word, they're different words. Complements is when two things go together, like jellied eels and strawberries.

This is when we find out that he thought he was dealing with Manchester City and pulls out of the move.
Speaking of Lindelof, people talk about Bailey moving on, I think Lindelof could move out next season.Life after Lindelof is finally out of the Man United starting lineup
Bless you for trying.
Up until about eight years ago most people got it right and it was the incorrect usage you'd see once in a while. Then it just spiraled.
£34m seems a steal
Why such a specific amount of years ago?
This place is such a mess I can't be arsed anymore.
I called it wrong so I thought it best to own it.
Plus, I'm drunk, so any distraction to having to face up to the fact that I've work in 8 hours is worthy of my time.
