Twitter and reddit,

I would believe anything posted on those sites.

Don't you know everything on twitter is true 😂😂😂.

I've just joined it. It's a scary place.

If we end the window with all of that having happened I will be a very happy chappy 🤣.

Good luck on twitter mate. I used to be on there and had to leave. The united twitter mob take misery and depression about the club to new depths.

Take it all with pinch of salt on Twitter, some of the stuff said is hilarious but crazy. every now and again there’s something good!

Some good communities on reddit would recommend the Muppetiers.

Just sharing the rumours:)

I'm not even going near any of the Utd stuff. I'd just get cross. Sticking to politics for now :)

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed033's Note - I would imagine that the run up to the next U.S. Presidential vote will be more crazy than the docu-drama series known as Brexit.

15 Jan 2020 09:07:19
Best to just stick to reading on twitter Noucamp99, don't get sucked into responding, it really is the place where all the crazies meet.

Agree0 Disagree0

15 Jan 2020 00:56:02
It's so polarised on there, Ed033. Just people shouting at each other. What happened to constructive dialogue, and respecting other's opinions? I've just seen some dame announcing she's unfollowing Vince Vaughan (I had to google him), because he dared to be polite and spoke to Trump (I knew him) . This is what we've come to. Just stick our fingers in our ears and go, nahnahnahnah. Sad.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed033's Note - Didn't you go on our conspiracy site at some point, Noucamp99? It's moved away from politics and now onto the nature of reality.

15 Jan 2020 10:46:25
Ed033, I can't remember what I had for dinner last night.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed033's Note - Sounds like you didn't eat any omega 3s.

15 Jan 2020 18:44:46
Koulibally will be 29 in the summer. I hope we’re not squandering more money on a player we’ll need to replace in 3 seasons.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 15:06:38
somebody in italy is now claiming a deal for the napoli centre back is done not going to try and spell his name.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Saw that regarding Koulibaly. Can’t see it happening at all.

Agree2 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 17:44:11
Easy for journos to make a statement like that knowing there will be little comeback on it, by the summer we will all have forgot his name and he can say something changed.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 18:55:00
Reporting 60m somewhere, utter bs.

Agree1 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 19:21:43
i only believe it when they are playing for us. it now seems as more have jumped on the story.

Agree2 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 20:49:20
Last summer his fee, if you can believe any paper reports, was said to be at least £90m. I don't think his value has dropped by a third on a few months and given we paid £80m for Maguire it hardly seems credible we would get a better player for only £60m.

Agree0 Disagree0

15 Jan 2020 18:33:24
Don't both him and Maguire really really prefer playing as the left sided CB? It doesn't make sense for me.

Agree0 Disagree0

16 Jan 2020 14:04:27
Am I being an old man here? But surely if you can play left sided centre half you can play right side just as well. It's like specialist full backs, why can't you play on the other side too?

Its the same skill set!

Bugs the crap out of me.

Agree0 Disagree0

Italian journalist Fabio Santini reporting Koulibaly will be a United player in the summer.
Deal finalised for 60m by all parties.

He seems quite reliable as he reported about Ancelotti to Everton.

Would be a strange one of true. BOTH Maguire and Koulibaly prefer to play on the left hand side of a centre back pairing. Seems odd to spend another huge fee on a player who plays the exact same position as a player we spent 80m on last summer.

Also 60m is a long way short of the 100m+ they have demanded every other time a club has come in for Koulibaly.

Personally looking at our squad and what we need I would put both Fabian Ruiz and Milik ahead of Koulibaly as Napoli players we should sign.

Agree4 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 16:31:02
Koulibaly is far better than the very very average Maguire who hasn't really improved us.

Agree3 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 16:33:05
I feel Koulibaly can be a fantastic partner for Maguire.
He has pace and power. Both stand at 6ft 5.

60m seems not too bad for a proven CB in today's market.

Agree1 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 16:36:03
Unless we look to go to a 3 shappy. Lindelof, Maguire and koulibaly. Let’s say Poch comes in, he did like to play that formation so that makes more sense.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 17:06:24
No chance £60m ed002 says north of £100m and massive wages, "very very expensive".

Agree4 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 17:08:31
I think ED002 wrote something saying offers around €100-120million for him.

That alone would rule is out.

Agree2 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 17:45:34
Maybe we are trading Lingard for the other £40 million 😁.

Agree2 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 18:12:11
they turned down 102 mill in the summer say some reports. can only see it being right if it's 60 mill plus Phil jones- Napoli have seen Smalling this season and thought if that boy jones is half as good.

Agree2 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 18:49:58
It unlikely however if it is true none of us should moan. Most were calling for him in the summer.
Always questions around if a purchase is the right fit but he would absolutely improve our defense no matter who he is paired with.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 20:42:08
what if he get a serious injury and can not play next season.

Agree0 Disagree0

According to sky, inter and roma are in talks for a swap deal. the result will be no move for Ashley Young. Let the man go for God sake, this is not a win for us far from it.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

14 Jan 2020 08:13:43
well his contract that he got offered he rejected it so he is free to leave when his contract runs out.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 09:14:05
my point is that Inter were willing to pay a fee for him so why not take it? Its also like us to now offer him a new deal, and for him to stay as no-one else is interested.

Agree1 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 09:32:12
i just meant let his contract run down if inter won't pay.

but to be honest i would let him go for free to them.

Agree1 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 09:48:12
wouldnt it be typical if he now signs a new deal as no doubt its still no the table. amateurish as usual by us.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 10:33:52
Agree Norm: he’s regarded as an business asset rather than a footballer, despite the wider implications of running a club like this.

Agree2 Disagree0

14 Jan 2020 10:40:57
Take it easy my good Sir. Stop getting riled up by what you read in the press. Most if not all are just click bait and holds no merit. Young signing a new contract doesn't mean he stays. That could be the club's method of still securing a fee for him. Whether Young leaves now or later, for free or fee doesn't really bother me.

Nobody’s buying a 34 year old.

Inter Sporting director is currently in London finalising deal for Giroud and starting Eriksen negotiations. Young has apparently already agreed personal terms, maybe that will be wrapped up as well while he is in town. Chong talking to Inter as well over summer move.
