Before 10th AugustSo when do you guys think the deal will be done? I think the first week of September. I'm going for 3rd Sept.

Agreed. Given that Matic isn't going to be playing 50+ games next season, and since Fred and McTominay work well with each other, I think we'll see those two in midfield with one of Pogba/Bruno in front of them on plenty of occasions. Sancho and the other attackers are all very flexible so we might see Sancho from time to time in different roles, but starting from the right and just interchanging with other players mid-match will be where he spends most of his time.I think it’ll be Pogba to share that role. With Fred/ McT filling in as a deeper role.
That’s too late. Even an extended deadline wouldn’t last that longSo when do you guys think the deal will be done? I think the first week of September. I'm going for 3rd Sept.
Yet we all get confirmation at the same time when Man utd confirm it. It was alot less stressful with transfers etc when I didn't get hooked into the transfer drama's.Basically 2 days later once they’ve realized it’s the most sellable piece of info
To be honest, not everyone is as up to date as we are on these forums.
I’ll give you my own example. I didn’t even know Caf existed until 2 years ago!
Till then my source for transfer gossip was ESPNFC, BBC & SKY with rare visits to Goal. Now I’d laugh if I ever used ESPN, SKY or Goal again. Barely even check BBC anymore.
But the stereotypical and generic audiences usually get their transfer news from these aforementioned sources.

I remember when there never used to be a twitter thread. We would scan articles from magazines and upload them on to the caf with our 56k dial up modemsBasically 2 days later once they’ve realized it’s the most sellable piece of info

Relax. It will be done soon.There's going to be a last minute panic buying of other targets after we finally pay Dortmund what they wanted all along for Sancho a few days before the deadline.
I actually don’t find this stressful at all. Discovering Caf and getting more involved has been fun for me. And the muppet inside meYet we all get confirmation at the same time when Man utd confirm it. It was alot less stressful with transfers etc when I didn't get hooked into the transfer drama's.
Seriously?I remember when there never used to be a twitter thread. We would scan articles from magazines and upload them on to the caf with our 56k dial up modems
They joined in 2011 so I’d say not unless they got banned and came back as another user...Seriously?
Agreed. First memory of the caf I have was from looking for any updates online about us trying to sign Luke Shaw back in 2014. The transfer forum is a brilliant hub for all the rumors, updates and news - I would never consider using anything else now for as long as I'm interested in the transfer window (so probably forever). Why bother surfing the web when all the relevant information you could ever need is filtered through onto here as it breaks.I actually don’t find this stressful at all.

Helps kill time if nothing else.
This years window lasts well into October.That’s too late. Even an extended deadline wouldn’t last that long
Gotta love transfer season on caf. Earliest memory was probably the Ozil and benzema transfer. Not having an account and just refreshing the threads. Ozil tweeting BELIEVE and Benzema apparently changing into a United shirt for a fifa advert are just some of memories I have.Agreed.

Stressful is probably the wrong word, but ignorance is bliss, particularly when the don't happen.I actually don’t find this stressful at all. Discovering Caf and getting more involved has been fun for me. And the muppet inside me

I’d say the closest 4 to us would be Mbappe, Neymar, Icardi & Di Maria. Icardi seems like the weakest link outta them but he’s a clinical finisher just like Greenwood.If this deal goes ahead, and it looks a dead cert at this point in proceedings, would there be a more competitive front four than Greenwood, Rashford Martial, and Sancho in the PL, or Europe for that matter?
Has a YT fan channel. Nothing more.Who is this guy actually? I have seen his name pop up quite frequently on the caf. Goldbridge i mean, not Sancho
Why are Sky UK confident on this one. They usually don't do anything but push other sources.Tweet

Almost time muppets
They’re just copying the Kicker article from earlier.Mirror now posting shite about Sancho preferring Pool over us. Either they re making up shit to get clicks or Dortmund is planting stories to drive up the price.
I meant from Dortmunds perspective. They wouldn’t wait that long.This years window lasts well into October.
Yeah, it's impossible to look beyond PSG's attack. It's the best in Europe by a large distance.I’d say the closest 4 to us would be Mbappe, Neymar, Icardi & Di Maria. Icardi seems like the weakest link outta them but he’s a clinical finisher just like Greenwood.
Hence yeah presently they’d be the closest.
I’d then rate Aguero, Sterling, Mahrez & KdB close second just because Aguero is almost past his prime and Mahrez is good but not great. At least not yet but now that Sane is gone it’ll be his moment to become a top 10 wide player.
No. I'm predicting a last minute record deal of Depay in the dying minutes of transfer day.There's going to be a last minute panic buying of other targets after we finally pay Dortmund what they wanted all along for Sancho a few days before the deadline.

I won't argue with any of that, other than your preference of Pogba over Sancho for AM slot. What I will say is, even with Sancho we would would still be short in the front 4 positions, if we had 2 injuries there.Indeed 80m is ridiculous! but I'd rather play Pogba as AM than Sancho, if Bruno can't play. McSauce is good enough to play alongside Matic or Fred behind the AM.
And what do they mean by "back from Manchester", are they implying Sancho was here to discuss a deal?On his way? Where is the flight tracking?!
Don’t think he would need to be in Manchester to discuss a deal. That’s for his agents and both clubs to do. The day he flies into Manchester is when he’s here to take a medical and sign the contract with everything sortedAnd what do they mean by "back from Manchester", are they implying Sancho was here to discuss a deal?
