That Express article basically plagiarised the two pages from the caf. @Niall should sue their ass!

Morata seems a useful player but I just can't get my head around his price tag. It's madness.

I wonder whether Morata's sale might be dependent on Madrid signing Mbappe? I can't see them leaving themselves with one decent striker.

I like Morata the player, would improve us. Won't look forward to the constant whining about wanting to return to Madrid though. Was barely tolerable when Ronaldo was doing it. And £70?!?! Just wow at what continues to happen in this market.

£70 would be pretty reasonable to be fair.

That Express article is something else. We all knew that journos browsed the site, but not to this extent.

Thank feck that the General has limited access.

We should have a whip-round the caf. I'm sure we could scrape 70 quid together. I'll set up an account you can all transfer the monies over to me, which then I'll transfer to Woody. :smirk:

I wonder the same. It would be a mistake to weaken the squad to pay later some crazy amount for his substitute

Andy Mittens latest piece seems to suggest he thinks Morata is just using United to try to guarantee more minutes at Madrid

I know not everyone here is mad about Mitten, but he does have sources in England and Spain

feck me. The state of that article. :lol:

The worst part is I posted around that time and it wasn't included. Bloody livid I am.
Can they still edit the article to mention you ?

And if they did this they should also mention my name as a passer by. :lol:

Lukaku also has goals under his belt. The whole arguement for this guy was that he is a better player than Lukaku and brings his team into play more.

If your going to stick up for him do it right. Too much mixed messages, it's like half the people on here don't actually know frig all about him.
I was talking about Belotti there.
:lol:

Some just can't wait to pounce to prove their point.

So who else will we sign after morata if zlatan isn't having his deal renewed. Morata and belloti or auba?

I'm really pleased we're linked, just want to see him holding the shirt now :devil:

Wow! Football journalism has just hit a new low, while the cafe has just hit a new high. The juxtaposition just blows my mind man.
Nah, that was about ten years ago when we fabricated news on Kaká and some moron journalist using the caf as "a source close to the player" got a snowball of breaking news rolling. There's been quite a few incidents like these but I don't remember such a lazy one that is literally a transcript of a thread. The ridiculous usernames do add a colourful touch, mind.

I think it's more someone from RedCafe just works for the express and thought it would be fun to write. ;)

What I find hilarious is everyone is so looking forward to that first signing that nobody seems bothered that Rooney hasn't been linked to anyone or anything at all. I can see it lasting until August when suddenly everyone starts getting a bit nervous about it.

I don't think anyone will leave us before signing new players.

I have noticed on facebook united have recently posted loads of rooney related stuff. "Our captain and top goalscorer". Was hoping for a caf meltdown.

I'm more worried about who comes in than who leaves. I really do rate morata though. Such a good striker, could be a star for us. Throw in fabinho, a cb and a winger and it'll be a great summer... until 6 months time when we start talking about how no one is any good. Like every season.
