The deal's done and Onana will be coming on the US Tour later this week. What other updates are you waiting on?
I wanna see the flight trackers, the leaked photos of medical, pictures with random backroom staff, all the ludicrous shit that comes with a transfer

Looks like he’s got some mouth on him too. Would be refreshing to have vocal back 5 along with casemiro who are pumped and communicating throughout the game and not just when we concede goals , a la maguire, DDG and Lindelof

Leaked CCTV footage?

How about drone footage following him in real time

Apparently he's retired from international football so AFCON isn't an issue
He was thrown out of the team by the Manager after criticising the style of play during the World Cup, wasn't he. He might well return to international football once the manager's gone?

Typical BBC bais in reporting the Onana fee as 'almost £50m' where most others reporting it as €50m. Somebody really ought to point out to them this thing called currency exchange!

Big signing if it goes through. For all the moaning if we get a striker in now it will have been a very good window.

What makes this window have a different feel to it, is that we appear to be getting the manager's top choices for his masterplan, rather that just square pegs for round holes.
Personally I'd still like to see an improvement at RB, and some additional quality in Midfield, but as you say, a top class striker now, and it's a very good window indeed...

No no, you're doing it wrong. You're supposed to ask if there's any point in having scouts if we only go for the players the manager knows and wants.

imagine him leaving 40° weather and landing here with it pissing it down and 13°
The standard pilot announcement when landing in Manchester in summer. Welcome to Manchester where it is currently 15 degrees and raining.

I still think we need a CM but priorities for me this window were ST and GK. I’d say RB falls into the category of it being definitely upgradable but not priority for me.

I actually don't think currency exchange exists anymore in the world of football transfers based off what I'm seeing this summer....either that or a vast amount of football journalists are on a wind up or just not very good at the specifics which is not a great trait really for a journalist.

Great Transfer. Judging by the Championsleague Final, it was the best goalkeeping performance i have ever seen, a new level.

If he is flying today there is a good chance Inter announce his departure a few days before we announce we have signed him.

It does, just depends which club it is.

He can wear the No.10 on his back and still play,” said Gerrard after Inter won their Chanpions League semi-final fixture against city rivals AC Milan.

“He is like Ederson. All night he is getting pressed, he is under pressure, in sticky situations, he is just calm, collects and he can play long

“He can also play short. I just love watching the ‘keeper. Tonight he was fantastic
.”

He won't be in the team for the next AFCON, after that the tournament is moving to the summer.

If he’s not as good of a shot stopper as Dave as so many of you claim then so many of you are going to hate him fast.

I was told on here that De Gea is not a great shot stopper yet practically every single win last season was by 1 goal with him making a late save to save us.
Please don't come here and talk sense.
