If this is gonna happen, you'd think we'd get some real credible info by tomorrow morning at the latest with deadline day literally this Thursday.

yeah i’d expect some serious developments to happen before the window closes if there are to be any serious developments.

Typical impatience..
not my fault the club cannot match my expectations and sign a player every 3 days. notts forest manage it and they’re basically just a small county, not a massive super club, with cool fans like me.

Mick Ruby is to Mayfair negotiations as Indykaila is to transfer targets and Hans Gruber is to skydiving.

We'll probably get the press release today with Chelsea seemingly no longer going for Gordon.

Edit: Will actually probably be tomorrow as Chelsea are playing tonight.

We all love United
This is bizarre. Who invented the story that they were in London for Donny’s wedding and turns out it was not? Or maybe they went to visit a couple of free museums and see the Big Ben?

There is no wedding? Donny isn't getting hitched? I am so confused...

I've decided that I love that this is still active. Just shows the never say die attitude of Muppets! FdJ will forever love alongside Wesley Schneider in transfer folklore!

What's the weather like in London today? Manchester is a steady 18 degrees, intermittent clouds at the moment. Maybe enough to trick them both that the climate is ok here.

18 in August is not ok so there is no hope.

It breaks new ground in terms of flogging a dead horse. Really is the most bizarre and annoyingly protracted process. I fail to see how this whole thing is not sorted out in one conversation between ETH and FDJ even before ETH joined.

For all we know, it was, and it has taken this long for Barca and De Jong to sort things out between them.

Muppet hope dies slowly...

You would think so, but what is different about this one is the money owed to FDJ.

Its all a delicate game because Barca want him gone but FDJ wants his money. It maybe a case of who blinks first.

No doubt ETH and FDJ have spoken. We waited a long time on him before signing Casemiro. That tells me the club and manager had signals that he wanted to come. I just don’t think that United thought that there would still be a dispute about the money owed.

No one spotted them in the streets of London? Frenkie was spotted and pictured in Vegas ffs
Good news. I went to the instagram of the person Memphis most recently followed.




It might actually genuinely just be them having a holiday but if not then signs point to Chelsea.

1776 pages for a player we don't sign would be a new low. And a new high for the Glazers PR and propaganda team.

It's been an amazing story to help the Glazers. The amount of people that have fully bought into this and completely focussed on this alone, holding out hope way longer than expected... it's been a v. good distraction for them.
