You're aware SAF didnt sign players fans wanted but who he wanted. Same goes for Ed and Mourinho.
Oh and:
Lindelof, 23
Bailly, 24
Lukaku, 25
Pogba, 25
Martial, 22
Shaw, 22
Fabinho | Al-Ittihad player

Well if reports are to be believed, Fred is all but done for us. It could be a matter of days in between the two announcements. If it wasn't for the WC, I'm certain that it would be.
One of the more reactionary and hyperbolic posts I've read in awhile.
I like the way you encapsulate the feelings of United fans the world over.
Take a bow, son.
We know Jose is going to spend the equivalent of the GDP of a banana republic. No point crying over Fabinho.
Agreed thread full of shite
Much like Vvd any midfielder would technically improve their midfield on paper but will it improve their balance or work rate which is critical to how they play right now: I am not so sure it will.
I do think he fits in well as a defensive midfielder which I said is more important for them to improve, but with a ball playing deep playmaker which I have doubts if Fabinho is. He will certainly close some gaps that were always left exposed with current midfield. That should protect their back 4 more and maybe their defensive record which they will need if salah does t get 40 goals again which he won’t.
It will be very hard for their midfield to have same work rate as this season and will be harder still if all 3 of the midfield are brand new to the league. That’s a big risk
We need to sign him before WC, but apparently he's already with his NT now, no ? I can't see it finishing next week at all then.
You know these questions are all contradicting each others ? Di Marzio already said that we have agreed on 50m price for him, not like we're still asking for how much he'll cost or that his club is waiting for higher offer. We already have agreed on the fee and it was said the medical soon, that was about a week ago and we're still waiting.
And if we go by that your -already contradicted- questions are right and in their place, then shouldn't we start working on other transfers then ?
There're 2 weeks prior to WC, again we should sign at least 1-2 players before it, because after it we won't have time for anything more than 2 players at best I'm afraid, so Ok, here it's, I'm waiting, let's see what we'll do in these 2 weeks.
I've never seen this kind of panic. It's completely crazy in here.
Got the inside track on this deal, have we?
Yeah....it’s reactionary & hyperbolic. I would be looking out for your username immediately the transfer window slams shut. I would ask for your opinion on the squad and if the squad is capable of winning the league title - if your answer is not affirmative, you must apologise for the phrase you used above “reactionary & hyperbolic”.

We are witnessing a panic attack in this thread, calm down @Son Of Sam
If I was a City fan pretending to be a Utd fan on their forum - this is exactly what I would post to try and wind them up.
Liverpool fans must be beside themselves this evening, not because they have signed a good player, but because of this reaction, it’s hilarious and utterly embarrassing in equal measures.
Because World Cup will end on 15th July and the transfer deadline day this year will be on 9th Aug ? That's less than one month after World Cup to finish the deals. All the clubs will stop negotiation with anyone during this period, except the players not playing in it. It'll get very congested post World Cup.
In 2014 I remember Mourinho finished almost all his important deals with Chelsea prior to World Cup. In the year of World Cup, it matters, especially when it's ever a shorter transfer window this year thanks to FA agreeing on closing the window on day 1 of the season.
After World Cup, we'll have enough time to sign 2 players at best, so we'll need to get 1-2 also prior to it.
One of the more reactionary and hyperbolic tweets I've read in awhile.
No we don’t. We need to sign him before the season starts. I think that’s more than a week away.
Is he a good goalkeeper?
And when the window slams shut and we have signed players that aren’t ‘3rd tier’ you’ll be on here, apologising profusely for throwing a wobbly because Liverpool signed a player, right?
Not a surprise that a Real Madrid fan knows what Liverpool need to be a top team.
What's wrong with you?
And another thng! If Borinho sells poor Martial after alienating him, he'll go on to score a million billion goals & win the Balloon Door & Grand National!!!!
We're going to regret not signing him! Liverpool stacking up on all the talent.
Martial is Tiger Roll confirmed?
Well it kind of is both reactionary (you're reacting to a transfer made by our rivals and not a particularly worrying one in all honesty) and hyperbolic (you're envisaging the absolute worst scenario imaginable with the whole 'we're going to end up with a team of no-marks because Woody is to slow to get business done).
That said, you need to relax and be patient. The transfer window hasn't even opened yet and already you're flying off the handle. You will never make it through the summer at this rate
Seems a good signing. I'll stop short of engraving their name on the PL trophy for now though.
Liverpool signing Keita, Fabinho and Fekir in one transfer window would be very impressive. They need a goalkeeper and they're good to go as long as everyone stays. Could use some upgrades in defense but I think that can wait one season.
They might not win anything and I know this is a United forum so I won't give too many compliments but it is very impressive what they're doing.

Take a break
Until Fred signs for Chelsea or City and the folks here would come out with the usual line “we were never really in for Fred, the media made it up” and we start pursuing Gueye or Mark Noble aggressively.
This is the only football site fans want to taste shit before they know it’s shit. Looking at it from afar or even smelling it from a distance is not enough evidence. It must be tasted before they are sure it’s fecal matter.
We are not serious yet about winning the league title. Serious contenders enter the market quickly and complete all the deals . We already know our deficiencies - what the heck are we waiting for? For £ to appreciate against the €??
Think you need to chill out a bit. Have a glass of warm milk or some coco and go to bed. Just relax. It will all be ok. Fabinho is a decent player but he is not the world class center md that United need, or the world class center mid that United will sign.
Just take a breath mate.
Good point, short memories.
Wtf are you on about blueprint
You realize fergie bought RVp
Sold Stam, bought Blanc
Bought sheringham
Bought Dwight Yorke
Bought Veron
Van der sar
Berbatov
Valencia
Ashley young
So whatever blueprint your on about you can’t read it if you think we only signed kids. Again an idiotic post
This is just an awful post.
Shite and obvious WUM, mods please do something about it
He's a good player not a great player so I'm not fussed, me personally I rate Weigl more I think he has a higher ceiling.
Utter carnage in here. Feel a Redcafe cull coming this summer, some posters are losing the plot after a few short weeks.
Stop wumming.
Think I’ve watched him like ten times maybe, he does look very good imo, not as good as the reaction on here would indicate, not yet anyway. With that said, I think he’ll do very well for them.
