The link between Guardiola and Thiago was so strong, due to their history and the agent, that I can't help thinking it could have been done a lot earlier if they were always his first choice. I think there may be some truth in the idea that at some stage we were frontrunners.
It did feel like they capitalised on a breakdown elsewhere. But who knows!? Maybe he just took a long time to make his mind up on whether to leave. |

We've been pretty unlucky with the Fabregas situation truth be told, nobody could've predicted the precise timing of Vilanova's retirement. It's just a typical kick in the balls when it comes to us and midfielders. Both the ones we have and the ones we try to get. |

I dunno. United almost certainly were in talks. The fact that we went publicly for Fabregas the day after Thiago was confirmed by Bayern suggests perhaps a little flippancy on our part in terms of approach to the whole thing. My fear is the 'dithering Dave' possibility |
