    Sounds like Bale might be staying put, even if he was just a pipe dream.

    I hope he rides the bench for two years and gets sold to China

    Sounds like we will get one more signing and that Yerry Mina is at the top of the list now.

    I'm ok with that I think. He was one of the best defenders at the World Cup.

    If we could only have one more signing, it would be a defender for me.

    Great pass by Herrera to set up Darmian for the cross. Good finish by Alexis. He's having a fantastic preseason.

    What a goal. Nice ball from Mata over the top, Alexis knocks it down, and Herrera finishes.

    7 days to transfer window close, not feeling good this will end well for United.

    Usually when a club does this I feel it’s over. Even if you don’t find a replacement for whatever reason, you don’t keep the player. He’s moved on mentally. No reason for us not to make contingency plans but still be pretty confident the preferred player is coming.

    fuck that fat cunt Mino Raiola

    for fuck sake give them one of Jones, Smalling or Rojo or fuck all three

    Also Pogba and Martial need to sack the fuck up, Pogba should be the captain but isn't

    I agree for the most part. Just think agreeing to something like that is setting yourself up to look like an idiot on deadline day. Especially when dealing with someone like Levy. Wouldn't put it past him at all to pull out of the deal at the stroke of midnight if they don't get a replacement.

    What's your beef with Pogfam? I don't think the players have much a say on captaincy. I've also seen it said that Pogba wants a new contract on par with Alexis and floating his name around to Barca is a negotiating tactic.

    I believe Jose would be shitcanned in a heartbeat before the club lets Pogba go. Woodward loves marketability and Pogba is a top 5 player in the world in that category. Like I said a few pages ago, I think Jose is gone anyway if he doesn't win the PL or CL this year.

    Nice value for the 400,000k per week wages, 2 goals in a half season.

    Agreed. Alexis' contract is so high because we got him in a straight swap instead of having to pay. It's one of the downsides to having no defined wage structure whatsoever. Think we have the 3 highest earners in the PL and a few others in the top 10.

    Tbf I don't think anyone knows what his actual wages are. I've seen £350k per week reported all the way up to £500k per week.

    Yeah it’s the main negative. If you get someone on a free you can pay a signing bonus then have them on normal wages rather than a crazy inflated number over the life of the contract.

    He absolutely must stay. He’s ready and it’s a de facto signing of a quality top flight player who will be hungry with plenty to prove.

    Our management is an absolute shambles right now. Have more confidence in the players themselves than Mourinho/Woodward/Glazers and that’s not a good sign.

    Frustrating Pogba unhappy and transfer rumors are circulating at this time. I’m going to assume it’s mostly bullshit. I don’t understand why there are always murmurs of Pogba and Martial are unhappy but you rarely see that with Lukaku, Alexis, Matic, Lingard etc.
