No, I'd rather not help Real buy Mbappe. They really fecked up rejecting our initial bid. Good luck to them getting 90 million for a non-first team player.Morata nxt......anyone with me ?

You could work for Chelsea breifing the mediaYeah, he clearly wants Chelsea and has been forced to sign for us by his agent.
Worst fear? Jesus Christ You do realise he has scored 85 PL goals in the last 5 seasons, only Aguero has more.My worst fear finally has been confirmed. I suspected Jose would go for him right around mid season last season. I was relieved when rumors emerged that he'd agreed to go to Chelsea. Can't believe we're going to get stuck with this guy for a decade.
Anyway, could some one confirm the fee? We haven't actually paid 90m GPB for this guy, have we?
poor Perisic. this pic comes in to mind at the moment
Though I agree Lukaku will need to improve, scoring in every other league game is quite good tbf. I believe put problems last season were about the shocking return from the other attackers. They need to step up regardless of how much better Lukaku does.That part is far from guaranteed, last season Lukaku scored in 17 games, if he does the same this season we could end up in the exact same situation. Lukaku will have to improve in order to reach our requirements.
me too for a second or twoFor some reason the only person I could think of was Louis Saha...
Thing is that both Morata and Lukaku are terribly overpriced but with Morata we would be buying potential as he's never led the line all by himself in his career, he's been an impact sub predominantly whilst Lukaku although not as technically sound as Morata has been successful in leading the line on his own, plus he's EPL proven.My worst fear finally has been confirmed.

Did lukaku do dirty business to your wife or something? Jebus.My worst fear finally has been confirmed. I suspected Jose would go for him right around mid season last season.

Team chemistry will be better, other players will have more freedom unlike last season when Zlatan's ego was getting in the way with him shouting and complaining everytime he didn't get the ball.Though I agree Lukaku will need to improve, scoring in every other league game is quite good tbf.

Jesus, imagine being upset about signing one of the best strikers in the league when your issue has been scoring goals.My worst fear finally has been confirmed.

Usually a thread in United forum is opened once deal is fully completed. Someone else made the thread for Lindelof and locked the transfer thread and we ended up waiting ages for deal to be done and by that point the interviews etc were buried in rather than in opening post.Lindelof thread was opened in the United forum when it was still "pending a medical and personal terms".
@Damien how come this one isn't locked and a United forum one opened?
The thought of you being terrified of us signing Lukaku has left me crying with laughter you sure it's worse than being in shark infested waters or dying alone?My worst fear finally has been confirmed.

Hello there Captain Obvious.The blaming of Ibra by some on here is asinine. It was Mkhitaryan not showing up for half the season, Martial having a stinker, Lingard contributing feck all, Rashford not scoring for about 6 months, Mata going missing and being injured, Rooney doing literally noting, Pogba hitting the woodwork 54 times etc. why we struggled with goals and chances last year. Ibra did his part. If Lukaku comes in and the rest of the players have seasons like last year nothing will change.
You do forget that Lukaku himself will be on massive wages for sure. I read one report which said he is likely to earn 275k/week. Not sure how credible it is though. But yeah, this move makes massive sense for us. Offloading a player past his prime and buying one who is about to enter his.This.
300k/week x 52 x 2 is close to 30mio

this. the likes of martial, micki and pogba need to step up big time if we are going to have a successful league campaign.Though I agree Lukaku will need to improve, scoring in every other league game is quite good tbf. I believe put problems last season were about the shocking return from the other attackers. They need to step up regardless of how much better Lukaku does.
It's good but not great. The problem to me is more with the over expectation that steams from people only looking at the 25 goals as a whole.Though I agree Lukaku will need to improve, scoring in every other league game is quite good tbf.

What does it matter if we finance that? I don't get why people are saying this. He doesn't want to come to us. What if us buying Lukaku has financed Everton getting him? What does it matter who Real buy as long as it isn't DDG?No, I'd rather not help Real buy Mbappe. They really fecked up rejecting our initial bid. Good luck to them getting 90 million for a non-first team player.
Don't agree with that at all. The lack of numbers from the others was about their lack of quality in terms of performance, nothing to do with Ibra's ego. That's just shifting the blame needlessly.Team chemistry will be better, other players will have more freedom unlike last season when Zlatan's ego was getting in the way with him shouting and complaining everytime he didn't get the ball.
Raiola is obviously blackmailing him to pretend to be happy, the evil bastard.Yeah, he clearly wants Chelsea and has been forced to sign for us by his agent.
United must be the only club who confirm deals before medicals and personal terms? Never seen that before other than with Ramsey.
Not that I don't think he will sign... The Pogba social media says it all really.

Leaving us with only Lukaku and Rashford as strikers? Highly unlikely.Why do I have this bad feeling that we gonna sell Martial to PSG…

Yeah, wouldn't call it great but if Lukaku scores in 19 league games next season, he's likely to hit 25+ goals and that'd be a success imo. What would then define our season from an attacking POV is whether the others step up and contribute because Lukaku's goals in themselves won't be enough.It's good but not great. The problem to me is more with the over expectation that steams from people only looking at the 25 goals as a whole.
No shit.I don't need you to agree at all, you're free to form your opinion.
I reckon lot depends on whether we'll get another LW. If we do I seriously think he'll be gone.Leaving us with only Lukaku and Rashford as strikers? Highly unlikely.
You're welcome, glad I could help.No shit.
yes he is a very good player, but what I saw of him last season, I am not convinced.So are you as underwhelmed as me? I am glad he is here, but I am not confident the rest will step up. They didn't last year. In fact we have been awful for years. I just feel we need more goalpower from another striker. I feel we are just going to hope for the best and go back in for Griezmann. If we get Top 4 again then he will come. If it goes wrong then we are stuck. We will have to wait and see if there are other signings coming.
Question is, is there a Mikel clause?Matter of preference. I don't like threads being made earlier than needed personally. Others are fine with it but the practice had been that only once the player was on the United website holding the United shirt, that a thread would be in United forum.
Of course he has but since we cannot officially negotiate with a player before agreeing a fee, we have to state it the way we did.Hasn't agreed personal terms yet according to Man Utd twitter.
Everyone talks about a LW but I think we need a RW just as much if not more to be honest, Douglas Costa or Dembele would be my choices. I'm pretty sure Martial will be staying but he has to step it up this season, he's not been good enough regardless of the harsh treatment he may have received. You need to step up when it gets tough not sulk into your shell, will never be a top player if he doesn't start working.I reckon lot depends on whether we'll get another LW. If we do I seriously think he'll be gone.
Personal terms are usually agreed before a bid is accepted.United must be the only club who confirm deals before medicals and personal terms? Never seen that before other than with Ramsey.
