Please Christ let this be resolved one way or the other in the next few days!
Frenkie de Jong | The last muppeting lap

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?

And if he doesn't join United, he's (a) still an utter snake and (b) United are still woefully incompetent.
You have a different view to this but I feel very strongly about it. You just don't string someone along like this for multiple months only to have your head turned by a club that finished below United 3 times in the last 5 seasons.
It depends how much Frenkie wants to reduce his salary, do you want to half your pay or get the same money elsewhere? If you are a player that's 25 coming into your prime, do you want to take a cut?
Me personally if I was a player between the ages of 25-29 I wouldn't want to earn less money dream club or not. The life after football you end up effectively in retirement unless you go into a high profile coaching job.
Haha quality
Yup i agree. I think now that Chelsea are involved, United will realise that they're either going to have to pay up to get their man, or risk losing out.
There is no way we'd be around if we weren't sure he wanted to come, now we have to prove just how much we want him. Chelsea won't match what we've offered Barca, and they won't match our wages i'd imagine, so in that respect we could say that we're still ahead, but we genuinely just don't know. I'm sure i read though that IF Chelsea were to get involved with de Jong, Azpi/Alonso would be seperate to any de Jong bid
If we don't get him, we don't. I like what EtH has reiterated again today, about signing the correct profile of player, rather than just a player.
Careful, he's hardcore.
Exactly, if you sign the wrong player over and over again, you end up in a "we still need 5-7 world class players" and those players won't want to come to you.
Convince the first one or two then it will get easier as you start stringing results together.
He also said Leicester were going to get relegated ( 2015-16 season ) and they went on to win the league.
Creeping towards a thread record surely, what was Sanchez 1300?
I'm more Malibu than malicious
Moaners will feel validation and continue their moaning ways until the end of time. Muppets will plummet from the sky at terminal velocity clutching their Frenkie dolls, the screams of a thousand despairing souls will come forth to plague the earth and enrich the soil with hate as their vengeful swansong. Berbaclass will probably have a pot noodle and a wank as usual because his muppety is limitless and unwavering.
Agreed. It will be a bumpy road, however, in the long term, it should bear fruit.
Don't do it.
Ha, I was wondering if anyone would get it..greatest comedy series everI love Frasier, too!
Ha maybe!
This will be a done deal by end of next week and he will look great in red
Nah, Grammer is a Trumper cnut.
I want this saga to continue on.

De Jong will get get his settlement agreement this week
The part about FDJ someone from behind the camera answered for him before he answered himself, which was interesting.
This reminds me of the Bruno transfer... United were dragging things a bit, Barcelona then opened talks to sign him and we had him wrapped up shortly after.
Why do we do crap like this? Why not just get it sorted asap to avoid drama?

BREAKING NEWS: Joan Laporta shows up to training with chocolates and flowers, with a boombox over his head to declare his love for Frenkie De Jong
Every time I see a 'things are happening' tweet I assume it'll be a repost of one from yesterday or 2 weeks ago or 2 months ago, and then do a double take when I see they're always current 
More useless tweets.
Indeed
He can easily be reporting on Barcelona's sales, which is another big topic among their fans. Not all of his reports are about United.
But in light of today's news, something about Frenkie and Chelsea wouldn't be surprising
Oh i know, but theres only so much of "Things Are Happening" that a sane person can take haha
What was said? Sounded to me like someone said "You know we can't" or something like that
Correct. We'll see how it turns out.
As of now, I wouldn't put much stock in any of ManagingBarca's Tweets. They love to twist peoples' words for the clicks.
It's the Caf's fault for posting those Tweets and basically trolling the forum with them.
However this saga ends I can't wait to never have to read one of this clown's tweets again. Even more of an attention seeker than Romano.
Thank Christ we have the distraction of Man Utd 1-2 Brighton this weekend.
How bumpy though? I don’t think we become more attractive next summer after consecutive seasons out of CL and 10 years since our last title. Two things I’m 100% sure will happen.
I personally think it is too much of a risk and one that could backfire dramatically for EtH. We need signings regardless of whether they are FDJ or Antony. Let’s hope the remainder of the window is positive.
Good luck with Juve paying something for Jorginho. They will offer a loan deal with an option .
