maybe they’d like Maguire back as a replacement for FofanaFofana for 80M? Leicester have done well here and the Maguire sale

Shut your whore mouth mate, thanks.Imagine if us signing Rabiot causes a chain reaction of Juve signing Jorginho and then Chelsea getting De Jong.

Which bit of that is funny?Imagine if us signing Rabiot causes a chain reaction of Juve signing Jorginho and then Chelsea getting De Jong.
I really doubt this is the case because there were multiple reports of FDJ / Agent being very unhappy with Barca to the point that they were ready to file a complaint with FifPro.Fofana being imminent very well could be related.But I never got the impression this was an either/or situation.
I think we are where we have been all along: We let them know what we could offer, and if/when he gives in and decides to leave we will be there.
The deferred wages are NOT the issue. He genuinely refuses to leave.
That is Barca’s issue. When it gets sorted, all this talk about work with agents and stuff is pointless. It s hypothetical til it happens, and it only takes about 20 seconds to say “we will match that” or “we will beat that by x amount”.
I don’t think De Jong agrees to leave until it gets to the point Xavi and Laporte turn on him publicly, and specifically says he’s not wanted at Barcelona. That hasn’t happened yet. They are still saying how much they value him.with a tiny bit of hedging. De Jong is gonna play dumb until they publicly say “get OUT”. This is a PR war now.
Can we just get Jorginho in this event chain?Imagine if us signing Rabiot causes a chain reaction of Juve signing Jorginho and then Chelsea getting De Jong.
Not too sure that would happen, I can't see Chelsea accepting a loan with no fee, Juve paying 15% of his wages with an option to buy for 10 Euros in 2028.Imagine if us signing Rabiot causes a chain reaction of Juve signing Jorginho and then Chelsea getting De Jong.
Nice story, bro. Except Chelsea was ready to pay wages and FDJ still doesn't want to move, even to London (supposedly living in Manchester was too uncool for his girl-friend, but can't see how London is not cool enough for missus).I really doubt this is the case because there were multiple reports of FDJ / Agent being very unhappy with Barca to the point that they were ready to file a complaint with FifPro.
I think the wages are the sticking point and he will leave Barca one way or the other. (either Barca or one of United / Chelsea cover most)
Ooh, get her! Bet you’re fun at parties!Nice story, bro. Except Chelsea was ready to pay wages and FDJ still doesn't want to move, even to London (supposedly living in Manchester was too uncool for his girl-friend, but can't see how London is not cool enough for missus).
Something is seriously wrong with that kid. And it is our fault for hanging the future of our club on some petulant child. Why didn't we have proper options B, C, and D? Who runs transfer window like this? Disgusting.
Everyone's a winner but us in this scenarioImagine if us signing Rabiot causes a chain reaction of Juve signing Jorginho and then Chelsea getting De Jong.
I actually feel sorry for de Jong. Literally been painted a villain has done nothing wrong - in fact he tried to help by deferring his wages.
That is conjecture only. Nobody linked to Chelsea has said anything of the sort, in fact outside of one Chelsea source and some Barca muppets Chelsea have never indicated they are even interested and that source has been conspicuously silent for a few days now.Nice story, bro. Except Chelsea was ready to pay wages and FDJ still doesn't want to move, even to London (supposedly living in Manchester was too uncool for his girl-friend, but can't see how London is not cool enough for missus).

Don't really care about the general transfer rant but I'd suggest the explanation that needs the fewest assumptions is often the right one.Nice story, bro.

Yup works very well for us... let's see what happens over the next few days I think.Not a Chelsea player then. Would work better for us…
Tell you when we knowYup works very well for us... let's see what happens over the next few days I think.
So who was this medium high wage player who was leaving today
Good old Romero... chat shit for clicks hahaTell you when we know
Not related, 2 CB were joining regardless. But i think the sane ones amongst us realise FDJ just isnt leaving.Just for the muppets that only read this thread. The Fofana deal looks like it is getting close and the Chelsea pursuit of de Jong has cooled. Related?

It's what our manager wants, we're doing what we always do and letting the manager call the shots, only stepping in occasionally if its an obvious bad fit, there's backlash or we get rejected. Our structure is still very puzzling.Paredes is three times the player Rabiot is…United is run by the same jokers as in the past, only difference is they have other dogtags on them. Why not go for Paredes?
Thing are happening/hot in august.Good old Romero... chat shit for clicks haha
I very much doubt if any sane person would go for Rabiot over Paredes let alone a “highly rated” manager. If that is indeed the case with Our manager, then I will go cry nowIt's what our manager wants, we're doing what we always do and letting the manager call the shots, only stepping in occasionally if its an obvious bad fit, there's backlash or we get rejected. Our structure is still very puzzling.
He's not, he's terribleParedes is three times the player Rabiot is…United is run by the same jokers as in the past, only difference is they have other dogtags on them. Why not go for Paredes?
surely it's gone too far for him notNot related, 2 CB were joining regardless. But i think the sane ones amongst us realise FDJ just isnt leaving.
Paredes isn't even half of what Rabiot is. PSG's midfield has been shoddy since 2019 and Paredes has failed to gain a starting role mainly because he is shoddy.Paredes is three times the player Rabiot is…United is run by the same jokers as in the past, only difference is they have other dogtags on them. Why not go for Paredes?
Because he isn’t three times the player Rabiot is?Paredes is three times the player Rabiot is…United is run by the same jokers as in the past, only difference is they have other dogtags on them. Why not go for Paredes?
spouting absolute rubbish.Paredes is three times the player Rabiot is…United is run by the same jokers as in the past, only difference is they have other dogtags on them. Why not go for Paredes?
Is he even reliable though?Juan Roberto has gone from negative news tweet delete to positive news tweet delete:
"Frenkie De Jong is very very close to joining #MUFC"

Depressing.Refreshing livescore tomorrow to see if Frenkie starts whilst we are chasing an equaliser at Brentford is going to be a new low for many of us.
Do bears shit in the woods?Is he even reliable though?
How is that still in question? That guy is an absolute legendIs he even reliable though?
He isn't. Next joke please.Paredes is three times the player Rabiot is…United is run by the same jokers as in the past, only difference is they have other dogtags on them. Why not go for Paredes?
That’s all the fuel we need for the next week muppets! In all seriousness - all the Chelsea briefings were they wanted this done ASAP so I think the fact this hasn’t been done either way is good for us. We’ve briefed all along we’re prepared to wait until the end.Tweet
