It’s like one of those lame teen hero movies where there is a handsome butch popular hero guy and a normal slightly nerdy guy in love with the same popular girl. She is with popular guy, doesn’t really know nerdy guy exists until some shit kicks off and popular guy turns out to be a bit of a conceited wuss and nerdy guy steps up to become the hero and get the girl.
Don’t worry @Brownie85, you’ll get your Frenkie soon enough! :D
So, how's living with @Berbaclass :D ?

Isn't Chelsea in danger of breaching FFP with all their signings? Does the signing of Cruella (sp) rule them out of the race?
New owner, i think FFP doesn't have any effect for first X amount of yrs. Not sure of exact way it works

Anybody here worried about Chelsea at all? Frenkie seems to he focused a lot on the city he lives in

Why would he want to come to United when we have shown absolutely no ambition whatsoever this window. We just had our worst ever season with 0 goal difference... And we've done feck all in the window. Its ridiculous.

SiPhillips is just a fan with a platform. Someone likened him to Goldbridge, which honestly isn’t far off. He’s just a guy with a blog.

Imagine Chelsea taking out their frustrations on United and stealing the FDJ because Barcelona stole their targets....:D

Would be something that would happen to us eh? :lol:

FDJ is a footballer, you don't expect loyalty and integrity from that group do you? :D

Flames to dust, lovers to friends, why do all good things come to and end?
Erik Ten Hag, Frenkie De Jong, a saga that dragged on for too long.
Deferred wage, Butterflies, a thousand muppets' silent cries.
Boehly applauds, Frenkie in blue, Stamford bridge welcomes you.

Chelsea taking their frustrations out on United and stealing one of our targets from Barcelona - coincidentely the same team that stole the two players they were after haha

The irony in that, giving the team that took your potential signings nearly €100m

Nah it's just not hard to see why he'd prefer Chelsea who at least behave like a football club who wants to be successful. Maybe he was open to joining United but waited to see some ambition from our side. Players love seeing a club showing ambition, or sends a message that the club wants to improve. If he was previously considering it, he would have seen us do absolutely nothing this window and would second guess coming here as a result.

The window is open for another month.

If that’s forming his decision making then he’s daft.

Just get him at whatever means at this point. We need him for our season to be a good one, he’s basically central to our plans going forward. Get him at all costs.

Yeah, why buy a young world class midfielder in his prime with years to give us when you can get a decent but perpetually injured old crock at the end of his career?!!
I’m sure some of these posts are just based off people playing fifa. Because Kante is still good to use on fifa, we should sign him. Why let real life get in the way of playing fifa in the real world.

Yeah, I just thought we could get him for cheap for 1-2 year, can't be worse than sticking with McT
He’s not the profile of player ETH wants. If we had Jose in charge, I’d imagine we’d be all over kante.

Is he?? Its not just about the next month. Its about the past however many years. Its about how Chelsea spend big when they want to close the gap to the top, and aren't afraid of making big signings, how they are regularly in the latter stages of the CL, how they compete for the Prem more than United, while United after a season with a goal difference of 0, our worst ever season, have done next to feck all to address any issues we've had going into the season, and we'll likely see both McTominay and Elanga starting it for us. Hell, could easily be a starting lineup with 0 new faces. That's after being a regular Europa League team the last decade, and showing no ambition to be more than that.

Yes, we finally have a good manager, and I'm optimistic for the future. But seeing the absolute shit show of this transfer window from us, how can anyone look at that and think we as a club want to improve or care about challenging or rebuilding. fecking Arsenal are showing more ambition than United and are backing Arteta more than Ten Hag is being backed, it's embarassing.
