Frenkie De Jong to United 95% done!

Jorginho would be immense like Scholes said yesterday take the ball of the half turn. Pass to better players it’s not that £#%&!ing hard to understand or coach. It’s basics ffs. Connor Gallagher another player who would fit into a ten hag team perfectly

Taking Chelsea’s old and on a downward spiral players is not the way. Took us 6 £#%&!ing years to get rid of the last 2 useless bastards

Would take Kovacic and/or Jorginho happily. Would avoid Kante because knowing our luck he really would be past it the moment he stepped foot in Manchester.

Would honestly take Gilmour. Seen him play live a few times and always impresses. Miles better than The Scottish Player.

Was carrick quick when he played as a deep lying mf?
when matic was at his peak at Chelsea he wasn’t quick either.
makele as well.

if you want a real quick athletes there’s. Scottish lad in our squad Scott. Quick and robust how is that working out for us?

Who the f*** said anything about passion?

Jorginho is a liability when he's targeted, as he showed against us last season.

Yes because it's either Kante/Jorginho, or McFred. That's it .

Kante made a whopping 26 league starts last season, 22 two years before that. He's constantly getting injured, to the point that Tuchel has publicly raised concerns about his injury record:

“He is that guy who makes the difference, and if you only have him for 40%, then it is a huge problem. [...] N’Golo is our key player, and we need him on the pitch.”

I'm sure Chelsea would love to rinse us for their past-it midfielders just like they did with Matic, and you two Muppets would be celebrating it as some kind of success.

Fisticuffs with Arnautovic en route to the ground.

He looked promising but did he even crack Norwich's team last season?

This is what noddies don't get. They see 'names' and think that's automatically the answer, when United should be signing prime or near-prime players for the next five years.

Kante is 31 and on 290k a week. Arnold would give him a five year contract

Sorry, so Kante made more starts than De Bruyne & Thiago last season? Is that what you're telling me? Let's sack them off too

Meanwhile Jorginho is starting midfielder to win the European Cup final & Euros final in the same summer (a whopping 12 months ago) and is a "liability" ?? Heard it all now

Absolutely horrendous signings, those two. Bet those cockney's couldn't believe their luck when they binned them onto us.

The fact Mourinho dropped the best part of £50m on Matic still regularly makes me seethe.

£75-80m shovelled into the Chelsea coffers all in, wasn’t it?

I'm telling you he made 26 league starts and picks up lots of injuries, even according to his own manager.

Not that difficult to comprehend is it.

He's old, injury-prone, past his best, and on massive wages. But you want United to sign him. OK

We are playing a Scottish clown in our midfield. A player who honestly wouldn’t start in the championship.

We can’t turn our nose up at Chelsea midfielders ffs

Can, should and will.

Chelsea would only sell them to us if they know they are significantly past their best (which they are).

And would still charge us an exorbitant transfer fee.

That's not £#%&!ing hard is it? I'm better than The Scottish Player.

could be like a scene from Spartacus as men all around Manchester rise up: "I'm better than The Scottish Player"

Definitely sounds like this is off.

Saving the rest of the transfer budget for this little gimp but as soon as the reports he doesn’t want to come we’re linked with everyone and their dog.

Should have £#%&!ed him off weeks ago.

For the time we’ve committed to this one, we simply had to get him. As ever, we’ve £#%&!ed up the transfer window. We’ll scramble desperately and compromise massively to put it right.

Nothing has changed. Good luck, Erik.
