With the reason being what exactly? Based on FFP criteria, we are clearly able to spend not less than some other big teams.

Would be nice if Casemiro signing convinced FDJ to make the move too. I know it’s unlikely we do both but what an upgrade that would be.
We have a budget believe it or not. We are actively looking to buy a back up keeper , a RB a RM and a striker .
In theory we did bid for Nunez so maybe Casemiro, De Jong, Pulisic on loan and a RB would be doable.
We’ve got tonnes of players to sell like Garner, Bailly, AWB, Chong, Tuanzebe etc that could bring in some cash.
It’s not entirely unthinkable.

Only Antony and FDJ along with Casemiro would save this window for Murtough and Arnold.
And even then I’d have serious reservations going forwards haha
Not to mention over £1m off the wages
No, if Murtough does all three of the above, we would need to give him a pass till the next transfer window at least. It will already be good upgrade (and even more so if he also manages to offload 5-8 players)
Haha! Someone has to keep them grounded.
I am glad Rabiot asked for those astronomical wages which made United chase Casemiro. On paper this looks like a great signing, hopefully he can deliver on the pitch as well.
The owners maybe?
This
We wanted Nunez for 40-50m but walked away because it was more like a 100m. Really don't think we'll get both Casemiro / FdJ. Has to be a Jan thing if it happens.
That’s what I mean, he’d just about get away with the shenanigans but it’s the way things have transpired that would lead to reservations.
There’s really no need for leaving everything so last minute like we’ve seen so many times. That’s why I’m quite sure it’s gonna be more of the same in future windows.
No clear plan for transfers isn’t a fantastic marker of things around the club.
It may be that Sir Jim told them behind the scenes that he wouldn’t buy relegation fodder, but would invest if they finally purchase good players (for him as next owner to build upon, and to do it not in the Championship)
Good job mate
Here i was going the speed of light to the moon and you dragged me down to the boulevard of broken dreams!Music to my fecking ears
/if he's really motivated by a challenge, he'd find the greatest challenge of his entire career at present day United. No question about that.
If that's true then just give him the captaincy when he signs.
This honestly pumps me up so much. Make him captain
What a CASEmiro! Wanna see him signed by saturday.
"The challenge of a size at United shook him"
At least he knows what he's in for
At least he knows what he's in for
Yeah like I said earlier we don't have to spend a fortune on a CM to partner him, be happy if we could also get Pulisic/Ziyech on loan and maybe Dembele on deadline day.

We should be, I wouldn't be so confident to say that we are!
Any good?

Are we just going through the Atleti roster at this point?
He's okay. He's a dependable winger who can beat his man and put in a good cross. He's also so good at helping out the defence that he's played as a wing back on multiple occasions for both Belgium and Atletico Madrid. I don't think he's a goalscoring threat, so in that sense, he's comparable to Ivan Perisic.
Carrasco would be a smart move as well.

feck sake are we being linked to every attacker they have now?
Good thing they didn't spend the whole summer chasing a different cm
I like the move, but its very late to be bringing him in now when the season is already spiralling
Martinez to move into midfield to partner Casemiro?
What else can club do more? Potential young players Camavinga and Tchouameni did not want to come here. Players like Bissouma etc can be tried but there is no guarantee that they will succeed and there is no reason to believe they will do better than the options we have. We bought players like VDB who everyone said could be good option but is at most squad player.
We unfortunately need guaranteed success. If we dont stabilize our squad for next 2-3 years I think we will be midtable club for next decade. Players like Varane (when he is fit), Casemiro will help as long as they still have ambitions. Atleast these players are still part of their national team so they will be motivated to play well at the club.
If Casemiro agrees to join, I think it is a big deal for Utd. Just hope that he maintains the same level of play as he does at Real.
The panic is real.
