Somniloquism: didn't know it was a hoax. Am glad, it was one of the most horrible things I've ever seen.

Must be a professional thing.

Similarly, I had to sort out a pc running Windows XP SP1 today. That was horrific for me. Similar feelings.

Two loan moves I'd have been interested in: assaidi and Ramirez

Wage demands prohibitive?

We don't seem to have a clue about using the loan system. Look at how brilliantly Everton have used it.

We just use it to get shot of some of the shit players we wish we'd never bought in the first place.

Quote from: john2710
link=topic=51561.msg2670393#msg2670393 date=1409607657 Man U were never going to let Cleverley go to Everton unless it was a permanent signing for a fee similar to what we offered. Looks like Cleverley's been playing games to force a loan move to Everton, get some games & still run down his contract, so he can pocket a bigger signing on fee. He had no intention of coming to us.

In which case we've inadvertently helped bigger up both United's plans for clearing a squad place and saving a few quid and Everton's plans for bolstering their squad.

In a fantasy world, it's their inability to shift Cleverley that's scuppered Falcao as even they must be close to over stretching themselves with the best part of 3/4 million out of the door just on him and Rooney after they've paid employers NI

It must be exciting for Man United to sign Falcao, but really, the money concerned is absolutely nuts. £24m to borrow someone for a year, then 345k a week? That's insane.

They look increasingly like a club who just spend money to look like they're doing something without thinking about whether they need the players concerned.
Looks as if Van Gaal is already in panic mode.
F**kin' stupid money!


I was sat on the table next to van Gaal and his wife in a Manchester hotel one morning last week.  I was having a full English, he'd gone for the typical continental ham and cheese and stuff.  Nothing to do with transfers I realise, but slightly more interesting than watching SSN in a forlorn hope of us signing somebody.
Was he sweating?
Counting his money and assuring his Mrs they could leave this shithole in two years?
Did he show you his Villa tattoo?

I wonder if Lambert's watching Sky Sports wondering if we're signing anyone. We're not signing anyone are we?

We do look horribly short of options. Two wingers in the whole squad (one of whom is 18). One actual creative attacking midfielder (who's joe cole).

It's astonishing that a club in our financial position hasn't made use of the loan system. I just can't fathom it.

That european thing of eating ham and cheese for breakfast .... words fail me. The sick fucks. Ham and cheese isn't for breakfast. EVER.

Sir. Ham & Cheese croissant is a fine breakfast. I demand a retraction!
