Frenkie de Jong | The last muppeting lap

[Counterfactual]

I've just realised this thread has become the One Thread To Rule Them All.

We're more hypernormalisation than that other thread.
We have Geoguessr for FDJ's location and we guess wrong just as often.
We're the new "+1 post-count thread" (also known as the "consecutive posts in a row thread")

... but we're better because muppets post "choo choo" once in a while!

Feckin' Magic!

Journalists won't be able to resist a few cryptic tweets over the next two days even if nothing is going on because they know how much interactions they'll get.

PDB doesn’t think we’ll get him. Said that on his podcast anyway.

I can't believe you listen to him

 

[Berbaclass]

I can't believe you listen to him

Why?

 

[Summit]

Why?

He's shit

 

[sglowrider]

Come on United make this happen

 

[Cassidy]

He'll be a United player in my opinion, it just won't happen in this window. Ala Sancho, club has not distanced itself from him and still see him as a priority target, that's all you need to know

 

[No Idea For Nickname]

If we’re going to sign him, the next 2 days are pivotal

Hello Michael Owen! :wave:

 

[Toad]

Hello Michael Owen! :wave:

Love this

 

[Berbaclass]

He's shit

Cool

I’m doing a Simon Stone and waiting until the final minute to cast my vote. Then I’ll be called dependable when I get it right

There is no "want", there is only "do" or "do not". Deep down, you "do", hence the "want".

That’s why Simon Stone is who he is, and I am who I am.

 

[roodey]

When do they have to return to barca training? Today? If they are nowhere to be seen then magic will happen

 

[buchansleftleg]

Garner sold to Everton....Chelsea's last minute transfer activity creates "domino effect" in market leading to FDJ transfer?

 

[BrilliantOrange]

Imagine this suddenly happening on deadline day.. OMG OMG OMG

Imagine?

No, Neo. I'm trying to tell you that when you're ready, you won't have to.

What happens if Frenkie suddenly becomes available then? The stance from Ten Hag was always that he was willing to wait until the last hours of the window. Since then we've spent around about 160m. Surely the club wont then allow Frenkie to go to another club??

If he’s available WE GO FOT IT

 

[BrilliantOrange]

Muppets, stay strong
This was happening all along
It was never going wrong
The coming of Frenkie de Jong!

Two days to close this madness. FCB continues to work hard on ins and outs

Complicated day in connections with the planes due to storms on the Catalan coast

‍ London key city

going from Fred and Mctominay to Casemiro and De Jong is one hell of a pokemon evolution

I'm already happy with our business this summer but if some how we pulled this off it may be the best window I remember.

No, Neo. I'm trying to tell you that when you're ready, you won't have to.

Shopping mall blowout sale？
Buy one get two free？

Or we get the giveaway but the main course will go to otherwhere？

 

[frostbite]

Can we ask for an extension from the FA? We are not gonna make it, we need 206 pages.

 

[BrilliantOrange]

Its literally Magikarp to Gyrados levels...

Bravo

 

[Counterfactual]

Its literally Magikarp to Gyrados levels...

 

[worldinmotion66]

Its literally Magikarp to Gyrados levels...

Now I have the rather unfair image of both Mctominay and Fred saying their own names in a dim, monotone pokemon kind of way!

There's always an extra hour for "paperwork" or something, right? We can do it!

(I'd never recommend spamming smilies)

Frenkly, I don't give a damn.

 

[AngeloHenriquez]

There hasn't been anything in this for weeks and every time I look at the thread it appears more of an attempt to hit a certain post count, got to admire the dedication but at this point I do question whether it's the "1,800 page thread", rather than the "FDJ" thread...
