How does German window closing has any impact on this ? We are signing him so we register him as per the England rules, right ?
I mean, I have seen players joining other leagues even after English window closes.

Jesus we have about 3 hours to close this. I hope fax machine works.
Bayern- "Sooooo, shall we get the paper work ready?"
Utd- "We've called our IT guy to fix this faulty fax machine, should be sorted in no time"

Well if he wasn't training this morning I'd like to think United have been working on this since yesterday.

True. I guess for Bayern to find a replacement? No idea.

Imagine we're getting the deal sorted and electricity at United offices cuts out.

Yeah that's the one, they were doing well when he came on and then it went to crap for them and he was really bad. I payed attention to him as he'd been hyped on here. Think the hype ended after that game... Until now :lol:
I mean Bayern did sign him after that?

We take 2 weeks to sort medical and work permit.. Hows this going to happen in a couple hours
We sign him subject to a medical and work permit. Most of our deadline announcements are like that.

Yeah it wouldn't I don't think.

Pretty sure we can sell people after tomorrow if we wanted (to clubs not operating in our window obviously).

Know nothing about him. But anything to avoid yet more McFred

Chelsea are at that stage they were during the Robben days where they’ve got a new owner so reckless he’s buying players just to stop other clubs buying them.

Why would the german window closing matter?

For incomings, all that should be relevant is when the English window closes, right?

As good a player as we could probably get under the circumstances. The standard of player who we could have feasibly been looking to sign anyway.

It certainly feels that way. Remember Maniche? Completely pointless signing for them.

Re: Sabitzer. Choose us oh long haired one, we will love you and condition your hair endlessly.

Always thought he was an attacking box to box. Nothing special, not sure he is better than Fred but can offer similar pressing and a different style so it would work for this half season. Would prefer tielemans as a deep playmaker, but sabitzer would definitely provide more off the ball.

Happy that we react quickly and can target a good profile to quickly replace and get what Ten Hag needs
