That’s pretty much what I’d come up with if I was asked to write a hit piece on this Transfer using publicly available rumours.
Frenkie de Jong | The last muppeting lap

He missed out that the women are all chavvy dogs
He will be the deepest lying midfielder. Will drop deep in between the CBs to pick up the ball and help with build up play. Will also use his dribbling ability to drive the ball through midfield and link our midfield and defense to attack.
You'v won the cigar !!
Isn't that medal supposed to be for top sources? Sport1 are as awful as a source as it gets.
Sport1
The article is by Patrick Berger, I thought he was semi okay?Sport1
Gosh, I’m these online reliability debates every summer are so grating.
Both he and Sport1 are great, overall. There's nothing wrong with what Berger reported, too, especially since we've known about Frenkie's desire to stay at Barcelona for a long while. This doesn't mean that he'll make United's life difficult, of course, especially if Ten Hag has convinced him.
Absolute nonsense and saving face from Barca who don’t typically sell players in their prime for a deal.
For the reveal video we should have Shteve McClaren interviewing him with his Dutch accent.
Spanish media are so insecure how the status of Spanish clubs in comparison to English clubs. Remember when Marca were photoshopping the crowd to make it look like there were more Madrid fans? I recall they changed a sea of red shirts into white
Frenkie DepressJong
He loves us, he hates us, £69million fee agreed, he loves us, he hates us, deal is 89.74% complete, he hates us, he hates us, he hates us.
Has anyone considered the possibility that these journos (yes, all of them) have no idea what's going on regarding this transfer because they're not privy to the discussion involving both clubs, so they're simply making it up as they go along?

And yet Barcelona want to sell him.
United had losses during the pandemic and to be able to sign they would need to recover them, this is how the FFP works in Spain.
And how is United going to recover them if they are not able to sell to anyone and have also lost the income of the Champions League?
United could not sign anyone either this year or the previous year and would be in the situation of Barcelona. The advantage is that you could do a capital increase and Barcelona can't.
Barcelona's debt last year is inflated by approximately €250M, even Tebas denounced the economic accounts.
Laporta here shot himself in the foot while doing this.
By the way 1.3B is gross debt. Net debt is approximately €650M.
Two days minimum from what Xavi says. Wouldnt hurt to leave it out to air for a couple of days though.
This, just another chance for a cheap shot as they're still salty that united ruined their childhood.
If he was that unhappy we would've bowed out ages ago.
If he doesn't rip his United shirt off burn it and throw on a Man City shirt in his press conference I'll feel let down
His and Barca interest isnt aligned
What has Barca got that Manchester hasn't?

An Accent you want to listen to
Just off the top of my head for now
You don’t think Manchester has great history?
Security? you reckon.
Sure if you love an accent where everyone has a lisp.
Suffragette Movement. Trades Unions. Peterloo.
Yeah I was somewhat confused. And that’s before we even mention The Stone Roses
Spoken like someone who has never set foot in Manchester.
Evidently never been to Las Ramblas
No style? Clearly you haven't seen the new JLingz summer collection.
Manchester has everything but a beach.
Champions League football. Although to be fair, Manchester has that too.
I'm guessing you never spent a single day in the NW of England.
Nicer people? What a fecking stupid thing to say.
I hate to say this and burst this bubble of excitement, but if he doesn’t want to be here, is no one worried that he’ll be another Di Maria? I’m surprised no one has mentioned that yet.
Not sure if serious…
I think that Fabian Ruiz would have been a great alternative for De Jong. However that's not the main point. My point is that we could have signed other players before the De Jong deal. Transfers can stall but very few clubs tend to stall with them. Don't tell me that if De Jong costed us 10m more then we would ben able to spend 5m per year for 3 years for Malacia?
