"Exploring alternatives"? Transfer window closes tomorrow, lads. No rush.

🚨 Manchester United have agreed personal terms with Emiliano Martínez and approached Aston Villa!

As exclusively revealed this morning, Dibu is back as concrete option for #MUFC if Lammens deal doesn’t happen.

Talks well underway now.

So we still have to wait a bit longer to find out if Man U want to bother to sign him. Anything else we could do to help Man U? Maybe play like useless twats every time we are against them? Oh...

How do you agree personal terms with a player before a bid is accepted by their club?!

That's been the way for about twenty years, especially this close to the deadline.

This window is an utter mess. Monchi needs replacing.

There’s loads of alternatives!

Administration, a CVA, folding the club…

Yep, so we won't be signing him. Why would Porto let him go on transfer deadline day? Why would any sane club sell their first choice goalkeeper on transfer deadline day?

About 75 million euros for Costa isn't it?

I suppose with amortisation his book cost per season would be ok for Uefa
