So it isn't just an over-protective mother thing then? ;) Come to think of it I do vaguely remember a story of he and Pogba falling out (or maybe it was their parents?) after the Switzerland match at the last Euros.

He's fecking toxic, his mother and him. He's also a bit shit.

Reminds me so much of Tsitsipas with the face and the fecking long hair of them. Both mommy boys too that nobody can stand.

Lets finish the job with useless Rabiot and the very limited argentinian from Betis.

United are on fire, are determined to finish the season in mid table.

Well I guess this is where we are now. How the mighty have fallen... But let's get on board the mediocre signings train. At least they're likely to come off... Right? We won't lose out on Rabiot and Arnautovic to Barnsley or something surely??

Seriously though, I do wonder if this is the very definition of panic buying. Club sees that their tactic of chasing one midfielder all summer in spite of his obvious reluctance, wasn't the greatest idea when our team of useless, spineless, talentless goits immediately return to form as soon as there's the slightest hint of pressure.

Suddenly the decision is made that we need lots of new players, but this can't be done without spending lots of money...or can it? Glazernomics initiated! Find us the cheapest bunch of bang average players possible and drag them in to replace the ones we already have!

Problem well and truly solved!

I’m hoping Rabbiot is in addition to De Jong not a plan B. Then might explain it because Tielemans is more creative
even if we had to sign Fabian Ruiz, De Jong and Neves, I would still not want Rabiot. This board is beyond ridiculous. They know that our dressing room in toxic and that it ruined last season's campaign. Then we go on signing the likes of Rabiot and Arnautovic. These guys are acid.

I do wonder though..why not go for Tielemans instead? Prem proven and comes without the attitude. ETH must really rate him because otherwise it doesn’t make too much sense.
Tielemans and Rabiot are totally different players. Rabiot is a better defender and generally less likely to lose the ball. Rabiot's worse season in terms of passing is Tielemans' average, Also Tielemans attitude was questionable at Monaco which is why they wanted him out as soon as possible.

Oh god, I couldn't think of a worse personality to bring to this current Manchester United side than this guy. It's just the gift that keeps on giving right now at United with their decision-making. :houllier:

I don't think this is happening, apparently Rabiot's agent has approached United, not the other way around. I think this is typical Italian media, throw the Manchester United name around to generate interest.

a premier league team will rinse us, they always do
Last year of his contract. Again we're too late and Fofana / Maddison deals are in progress, so Leicester might decide they'd rather have the player than the 25M or whatever we'll offer them.

Di Marzio says a deal has been agreed. Isn't he like the God of Italian transfer news

FDJ is not gonna happen brother, writing’s been on the wall for a good 3 weeks on that one.
I know. I think I got slaughtered on here when I said it 3 weeks after the links started back in may.

By Di Jong, I’m thinking a creative top quality plan B, or even Young gem.

We have Giggs and Rooney anyway. Just build them a couple of statues while they're at it.

Rabiot and de Jong would be an upgrade on what we’ve got but rabiot instead of de Jong is a no go! That ain’t enough.

Not happy with it. But in reality he's so much better than McTominay and I can't watch him anymore.

"we can't improve the squad because we can't shift average players on ridiculous wages!!!!"

"Sign anyone if it might mean mctominay out of the team!!!"

Would be daft. You know nothing about his ability at this level.
True, and we didn't know anything about Rashford, Greenwood, etc. at this level until we played them. We'll also not know about Garnacho until we play them. That's the point. We find out.

Although I agree, the opposite side of the argument is that we already know exactly what McTominay is and it’s below average at best

Promoting youth players into the team is dangerous with this club. We're just as likely to end up with shite like Cleverley, Lingard, Mctominay etc stinking the place out for years, as people tell us they love the club and they run around a lot which makes them quality squad options

ETH would literally be going back on everything he's said about buying players if this happens, it'll send out a terrible message to the academy lads, and we will be loading the squad with hard to shift players once again, it's just so obviously a bluff.

How do you feel about rabiot and tielemans
Aren’t they both similar though? Both box 2 box… I mean I’m all for rabiot aslong as we get 1 more mid in to play with him, rabiot just isn’t enough to me and seems like a panic buy, but we do need bodies in midfield but they need to be quality and a big upgrade on Fred and mctominay.
