Ah that.
Well feck them. They'll be left looking like cnuts no matter how they spin it.
We might as well look like moral winners as well. "Saving private De Jong from the horrors of Barcelona" "United pay Frenkie's debt from loan sharks"

I love how all the reporters are just contradicting each other now
When was it off?It's back on
Of course it is relevant. You are talking about him as an investment that will gain value and the reality is that he won't based on recent history.
Burt backtracking?
Fixed that first word for you.
You're the one treating him as an asset. Development and growth of player value surely shouldn't play a huge role for United's player acquisition
No read the post I quoted
If this was the case and if Chelsea are prepared to pay it, as has been reported, he'd already be at Chelsea.
I did, thank you
Very good point
We're going to get him and Rabiot and win the quintuple the next 8 years
Fair
Then you don't understand it. Fair enough.
Its on, its off, its on, its off......we'll get to page 2000 in the next 3 days if its continue like this
Cat fight
That's the funny thing, they are not contradicting themselves. Most of them shared their opinions which was that De Jong wants CL football and that United doesn't offer it this season, that's about it. Every time they wrote actual reports about Chelsea they either didn't mention what De Jong may want or they clearly stated that Chelsea are in the dark like United.
The only thing that everyone seems to agree with is that if it wasn't for Barcelona wanting to sell De Jong and Barcelona needing to get rid of his wage and also getting a bit of cash, De Jong would be at Barcelona until at least 2026. Everything else is guesswork and fantasy.
This saga sucks
Do you ask them about it when it's not in? If you show interest in a particular brand they'll probably keep it in stock, unless there's supply chain malarkey afoot.
I genuinely think it's a case of him now being open to leaving. Chelsea think they'll get him. United think they'll get him
HOT HOT HOT! On like donkey kong. Someday will be a big day.
We can dream.Not really but some posts just are blind. I'm going for a pint maybe we will sign him now for 80m and he will be worth 100 by the time I get back.
unless you’re being sarcastic… how is “so little encouragement from de Jong..” good news for us?It's back on
At least Chelski’s know when to walk away.
No I didn't. I suggested that he was a valuable asset for the club, at no point did I suggest that he would gain or lose financial value. The player and his performances for the team are the value.
Last little push. Old Trafford unveiling before the Liverpool game to prevent the protests??

Never doubted you JBurtTelegraph, honest
Giant amongst men, yeah
A rare win for the good guys?
bastardIs that new from Burt?
sounds like we could buy de Jong if we wanted to - Chelsea.

Juan Roberto was ahead of the game last night then when he said that United were in pole position? Tier Tatooine? (2 full moons)
Kounde and Raphinha too
I've never read anything on the interweb more likely to be true than this.
Chooo chooo! I’m back in. Was never out!
I’ve confirmed this with my wife and kids. They said the source is reliable!
Is it ... on? 
You told us that last night.
Chelsea are in the exact same situation as us.
