Ok, so we're at 90% (laughable that the Twitterati would know!) But enough % to.play with to get another 10 tweets off!!
Right, that's fine. Still, Feyenoord could have just rejected our offer as Lyon may have been advanced. I guess, in this case, they really weren't (merely a verbal agreement), so United could jump in and provide a formal offer.
I'm struggling to recall anyone at the moment. I thought it was Luckhurst, but he didn't report it. Maybe it was one of the Daily Mail reporters outside of Mokbel?
Was the Telegraph on the 10th of June. Can’t remember who the journo was. Definitely said personal terms won’t be an issue. I’ll find it.
Here, here
Telles surely on his way then? I see right back as the biggest problem though but both sides could do with upgrading.
Yeah, you're right. Whittell did state that in his report.
Ornstein is the one tapping in here. Romano had it out first, from what I've seen.
A good few journalists have reported that De Jong has been persuaded by Ten Hag.
You might want to just link the article so it doesn't end up in tweets and confusing people.
Well what do you know, they don’t sit around listening to summer tunes. Whoever that poster was
No that Dutch journo from VI without a blue tick got it first.
Right, fair enough. When you mentioned the Telegraph, I also remembered Whittell stating the same thing. I personally don't consider Jason Burt that reliable, but that's fine nonetheless.
Right, that makes two in Burt and Whittell + Luckhurst who stated a few days back that Ten Hag alleviated De Jong's concerns about joining United.
Any idea why we'd offer more money than Lyon and a sell on clause? Surely we could have offered the same terms?
I find it hard to believe he’d want to stay there since they’re happy to offload him. I’d want out.
Higher fee 15+2 vs OL 13+2 plus a sell on clause means OL have to match us.
You're sort of correct. Feyenoord had a verbal agreement with Lyon on the deal. However, since it wasn't formal, United could still jump in with a better formal offer and get ahead in the race.
So DeJong, Malacia almost done
Eriksen deciding
Antony allegedly discussed
Timber discussed
Martinez allegedly discussed
Dumfries may be bid on
DeLigt rumours too
Ten Hag looking to bring sexy football back

I'd be very pleased by all of that. Apart from maybe Dumfries I was never that impressed by him but it's not like our current options are any better.
I know, I was taking the piss out of those that incessantly moan about how Romano just sits around F5ing other journos tweets before copying and pasting 5 minutes later.
Total football
Scratch both Dumfries and De Ligt off of the list. None of the more reliable sources have reported on their links to us. Add Antony to the list, and you will have captured our current summer activity succinctly.

Despite Sky talking initially about Malachia they go into De Jong too and are also reporting personal terms for De Jong are not believed to be an issue.
I forgot about Antony but not convinced that we are gonna get him this summer
I don't see us going for a CB until we've shifted one or two of our own but Dunfries could materialise since we only have AWB and ETH isn't a fan.
Sky Sports New, yesterday's news, tomorrow!
We might see 6 in yet
Yeah they are intent on pricing us out of a move for him they want 80 we are prepared to pay 40, non starter.
On the bright side, Melissa Reddy's reporting this, so for we're seeing a rare occasion of reliable reporting from them.
De Jong is a no brainier. Eriksen would be great on a free. Malacia is a punt which you need to take from time to time.
I am worried about the rest though (two Ajax CBs, RW). We are just going with what ETH is familiar with. It might work out great but is a trend at the club.
Touché
I'm on the same boat. Even if they bring Bergwijn in, he'd be there to help Ajax move on from Haller.
But ..but...but United don't do multiple deals at once....
Ten Hag's willing to give Dalot a chance, however, and whilst Dumfries seems like a reasonable player to bring in, I've yet to see a reliable report linking us to him.
I'm gonna cover our backs unjinxing it by saying he prefers living in London just like Eriksen who will stay at Brentford.Relax
