My brothers a United fan and thinks similar...then i remind him you have Jones and Smalling still at the club. United need defenders, they are alright further up.

Yeah because we can just 'buy' Dybala. Would need to be a world record fee most likely.

Well he might be going to Inter, and juve have set a price about 100m euros.

Sell Mata, Sanchez and 'I'm a big Jessie ' lindgard, offload their wages and buy Dybala, winning to be honest.

World record fee is about double that.

Juventus aren't selling Dybala any time soon and it would take a huge amount to do so.

We don't have a permanent manager or DoF and we need to buy at least one top class CB and probably a RB and RW before we worry about anywhere else.

I don't get why we didn't sell mata for millions and buy a replacement if he's going to leave for free.

Or having seen first hand Dybala wreck us why we aren't trying to buy him from juve and are instead looking at dougie costa.

Stupid really on both counts

Well here is a surprise for you Nick. 1 Dybala is happy at Juve, 2. They don't want to sell him, and 3. Nothing suggest we're interested in Douglas Costa.

you need to step away from fifa.

100m € for Dybala, ha.

Robbo · 16 Jan 2019 at 23:49

Higuain joining Chelsea on loan it seems, interesting one. He's declining quite a bit apparently.

omnomnom · 17 Jan 2019 at 06:29

Still has a decent record though. This will push Chelsea to top 4 I reckon.

Playing with one of the best players ever at one of the most successful clubs in Europe (currently) where you've done a lot of your growing up and get to spend time in a lovely country, versus playing with Fellaini at the fastest declining club in Europe and being stuck in Manchester with post-Brexit food shortages and misery.

Yeah, it's a toughy for Dybala.

That is quite the quantity of hyperbole in a single sentence, well done :rolleyes:

Seems to like the cake a bit too much. He is 31 now so probably starting to catch up with him after being able to get away with it while younger.

Casilla has moved to Leeds from Real. 4.5 year deal.

Fellaini might be sold by then.

You underestimate the power of agents

FrankJH · 20 Jan 2019 at 20:39

Reports that Darmian is finally going (happened for the last 3 transfer windows so don't believe it until it actually happens).

Juve might be willing to pay a 3m euro loan fee (or 4m depending on the report) and either a possible 8m or 11m euro fee in the summer to fully transfer in the summer (Utd are right now activating the 12 month extension) ...such dodgy sources it will be a miracle even if the loan happens.

mp260767 · 22 Jan 2019 at 12:50

just seen the following and :eek:

, can someone confirm that the club involved is the Barcelona i think it is, and not some sort of barcelona united

"Kevin-Prince Boateng has completed a "dream" move to Barcelona on loan for the remainder of the season."

Andybtsn · 22 Jan 2019 at 12:55

Just as bizarre as the Paulinho transfer, who turned out good and then left anyway. I think they're short of center mids.

Kevin-Prince Boateng is a free agent... thoughts?

He's 30 and rubbish. Hope Utd sign him.

you were saying?

BaZ87 · 22 Jan 2019 at 14:29

He's rubbish. Self explanatory that one stig and I still think he's rubbish.

Higuain to Chelsea on loan until the end of the season is done, it's going to be interesting to see how quick he can settle into the PL.

He's now 31 and while that's certainly not ancient he's not as quick as he used to be. At Napoli and Juvé and even when he was at Real he was immense. Not so much at Milan this season. It'll be interesting to see how he gets on.
