read something that Christensen has changed his social media back to Chelsea images. Is this a sign Barca are not in fact registering some players meaning DeJong might be staying?

Rabiot is nothing like De Jong either. Neither is SMS to be fair but at least he’d bring quality.
What if we get all 3... And some whine how our midfield is too stacked and we don't give Iqbal and Garner a chance.

You doubters are all going to look like total gimps when Frenkie is spraying passes about against Liverpool a week on Monday :drugtrollface:

Nobody would get angry over that situation. If Iqbal and Garner are good enough they’ll get chances.

Not gonna lie, boys. Losing out on a player to a club who were under the effective control of Boris Johnson’s clown car government mere months ago is gonna sting.

If this deal doesn’t go through now then mortough and Arnold’s reputations will probably be irreparable with fans. They’ll be looked down upon as Woodward 2.0.

Not signing the player is not the issue. Not walking away 6-8 weeks ago and signing alternatives will forever haunt them.

Chelsea are objectively a more appealing option than United at the moment. It may suck, but it certainly would be a shock if any player chose Chelsea

Sounds likely. He will probably see a lot of the ball at CB with McTominay and Fred’s backward passing.

who says we have a deal with the player? I don't believe Laurel & hardy have talked to the guy
We shown some incompetency as usual but I’m pretty certain we aren’t that clueless that we haven’t even spoken to the player or his agent in 3 months.

United should really sue a few of these rags for slander. They won’t of course, but they would have an excellent case in a court as rags like these are damaging the clubs public reputation.
The clubs scattergun and amateur approach to transfers is what’s hurting the cluvscreputation.

I agree to a certain extent, but they’ve backed the manager which people whinge on about on here enough. There’s a lot of people who will look silly if this goes the way it’s currently looking likely to go.

Exactly this. Barcelona are fully aware of the stance of both clubs and deals have already been agreed.

Nobody stands to gain a thing from peddling a false narrative that Chelsea are seriously in for FdJ.

Maybe Chelsea are using the deal as a smokescreen to tie up all their other business under the radar? Maybe they're just trolling and nefariously trying to stall our deal as a media circus over FdJ hurts us far more than them...

But none of that is likely. Their interest seems pretty conclusive
They might be hoping that it forces us to pay up all the money Frenkie is owed.

Today IS FINALLY a big day
Barcelona needs to register players tomorrow yeah? Makes sense that they -really- need an answer today.
And for the sake of many posters health we also really need to finish this saga also :lol:

Question: Why has ben jacobs been posted here so frequently? I can't find him on any Tier list.
because he's the only one nailing his colours to the mast, everyone else had no idea who Frenkie is going to choose / will he resolve the wage dispute.

Yep, pretty clear at this point that both clubs have agreed the terms set out by Barca as well as the player.

Literally a choice between chelsea, and united, who can both meet demands outlined on players behalf.

Ball is in frenkies court.
