No Simon but you did say it was a Done Deal, which clearly it isn't.Tweet

to be honest it does seem like its come out of nowhere very quickly.I see none of these ITKs were able to mention we were looking at Dybala before the story broke
Amazing. He just regurgitated what’s been said by every journo.
VerbatimAmazing. He just regurgitated what’s been said by every journo.
Indeed. He obviously knew about both AWB and James but he shot his load early with Maguire and the fact he's piggy backing on the Dybala stuff is cringyYep. I believed him at first with the Daniel James announcement timing, but starting to think that was pure guess work now.
He's trying to be the man for EVERY transfer when that just isn't possible, he should have stuck with just a few random snippets here and there. Now he's being shown up trying to be too smart.
Yep. He's fallen into the Spoofex trap of trying to explain things and why he's still correct etc.Indeed. He obviously knew about both AWB and James but he shot his load early with Maguire and the fact he's piggy backing on the Dybala stuff is cringy
Should have quit while he was ahead
He did the same on both James and AWB interestingly enoughYep. He's fallen into the Spoofex trap of trying to explain things and why he's still correct etc.
By all means he might still be genuine and trying too hard but his credibility has fallen IMO.
I think this is true. His announcements were to the point, few and far between and much better for it.Yep. He's fallen into the Spoofex trap of trying to explain things and why he's still correct etc.

The problem is he's trying to ACT like he has all the knowledge, when like you say he's actually just the messenger.I think this is true. His announcements were to the point, few and far between and much better for it.
As for the rest about his credibility, it's much too simple to say his credibility is gone. He's got a friend in the marketing department. That's it. He's not Ed's understudy. He's not getting briefed by the club PR. He's just passing on water cooler talk. No need to go overboard with it
That Spoof chap and the other ITKs do act like that.The problem is he's trying to ACT like he has all the knowledge, when like you say he's actually just the messenger.
He's trying to build a fan base and become E famous, when all it takes is his source to tell him to bugger off and he's done and dusted.
Just goes to show no one actually knows what is happening.Desperately trying to recover the lost credibility with his Maguire announcement. Think the jig is up for ol' Simon.
I saw that too, these guys are on a different level all together.Reddit is insane.
Absolutely not. Unless i'm also ITK, because I said in my WhatsApp group last year, during England vs Sweden, that we'd sign Maguire.So is Simon ITK then? Another one he got correct way before anyone else.

True reading through his prior twitter feed he said we were close with Koulibaly and De Ligt was a possibility. I think I could have guessed who we were actually after.
Nope he aint getting this one, the fee was obviously only recently agreed so it certainly wasn't a done deal when he said it was
You're kidding right? A few people on caf called Sessegnon to Spurs even before winter window. Are we ITKs as well?So is Simon ITK then? Another one he got correct way before anyone else.
Merely asked the question. May on here said he was the best source a week ago.You're kidding right? A few people on caf called Sessegnon to Spurs even before winter window. Are we ITKs as well?
I'd have given him the credit had HM not played any game post this update but that wasn't the case which means that the deal wasn't done till then
Apologies, felt that you were implying that he is an ITK here. In either ways, never believed him. He made an educated guess about James' timing and everyone aboard his trainMerely asked the question. May on here said he was the best source a week ago.
Good one.Simon has got a perfect record of saying United will sign a player and then United signing that player. Plus the fact that he's gotten other things right such as sponsorship deals and announcement timings. Plus the fact he's consistently been proven right when other people claim a transfer is done and he has said they are wrong. I find it amazing that people think he's just been guessing all this when I've never seen any other ITK or even professional journalist come even close to his level of accuracy.
It's trueGood one.
Not sure how you still believe this Simon guy but fair enough.It's true
