Be hilarious if Falcao fails his medical. Maybe that complication is why its taken so long to get the deal done.

Whoever runs the Leeds Twitter feed is going to find himself very unpopular with the fans. I mean fucking hell.

Please hurry up, United. I don't want SSN to explain deal sheets again.




I must have refreshed the United website a million times today.

Surely we wouldn't let Welbeck go if Falcao had failed his medical.


Apparently Alan Smith was duped by a fake Guilleme Balague account.

He was supposed to be back for end of September or October. I'd be alright with that if we had more creative options but of those three, Silva is the only one who reliably creates. Nasri seems to have gone back in his shell and Jovetic whilst very creative is pretty hit-and-miss with his delivery.

I hope I'm wrong but I don't have a particularly good feeling about this. On the upside it seems like Nastasic is still around, so hopefully that means Boyata can fuck off as far away from the team as possible.


I honestly think the 2 Ferns will start to partner up a lot more, with Yaya pushed up. Especially after Yaya's shitty start to the season (he's getting to be even more of a defensive liability). I think Jovetic was trying to hard the first few games to impress, which meant a lot of passes just didn't come off, hopefully he can settle. If (massive if) Aguero stays fit, Negredo will not be missed at all


Delighted Nastasic is still there

Glad to hear.

Under Moyes I could see us letting Welbeck go because we were going to sign Falcao only for it to never happen.

I'd dare say that wouldn't happen under LVG.

All an elaborate troll, never interested in Falcao. Just hired a guy in a wig to stop City getting Falcao and then sabotaged Arsenal with a non-existant Welbeck deal.

From what I've read on Twitter: we've been granted extra time to get the deal done and United sources saying he's not failed the medical.

I want to go to sleep, just announce it already.

Aye, I can see how it might work, I'm just not sure it will. The fact we lose Yaya to the the Cup of Nations in January (along with Lampard) makes me think we might be a bit too stretched. It's worth noting that we've also just got rid of the two most qualified backups for that period as well in Huws and Zuculini.

I thought Zuculini was back in January? Lined up perfectly with the ACON (and Lampard leaving) wasn't it?

I'm also pretty sure Pellegrini thinks Demichelis can play in midfield if needed (not entirely sure he's right). We also have Navas and Milner (Kolarov will play left wing too I think) for a less 'creative' and more stretched midfield if needed

Nope. Whole season loan-deal. This is kind of my point, we have options but, when you start talking about Demichelis and Kolarov playing in midfield, they aren't really good enough.

Hopefully we're just saving our pennies for a massive spend next summer on Pogba etc.

My bad, initial rumour was probably January. Kolarov is pretty awesome on the wing though in fairness. With the 2 Ferns we have an exceptional defensive base, especially with Kompany and Mangala backing them up. Yaya has to go further forward imo.

The last minute Negredo deal has me convinced we're saving for someone special

I do too, then I see him play and he reminds me why I can't stand him.

It's not so much that he's a bad player but just that he's a colossal cunt, making up for his lack of skill by trying to elbow people in the face. I think he's too immobile to make it here, but we'll see.

Look at how that cunt Shawcross brutally assaulted Fellaini's forehead, elbow, and fist within the space of 30 minutes.

Take a miracle for him to make an impact at Old Trafford. He isn't a good passer of the ball, a dribbler or even a hard tackling midfielder. There's not a quality he's got that makes you think he'll be good enough.

Tom Lawrence joins Leicester on a four year deal. Surprised by that, at least Powell isn't permanent I suppose.

Permanent according to James Cooper.

:'( You lot don't deserve him.

At least with us he'll be getting regular game time in his best position. Didn't seem to ever get that at United in recent seasons.

It's a good career move for him. He'll do well I think and probably prove me right in one of the million debates I had with VP/Poe along the lines of 'Welbeck isn't shite'. He's got the talent to succeed and he did well centrally for us. Good fit for you in terms of the style of player as well, if Walcott and Özil complimented each other then Welbeck's going to add another level onto that. And you've got him somehow at a bargain price.

But I can't wish him well, we should never be selling to you and if his goals fire you to the Champion's League at our expense its one of the worse decisions of all time. So now I'm hoping that a player I like and left for completely understandable reasons flops because we dropped a bollock. It's horrible.

We're also left with an untested, although admittedly talented, 18 year old in Wilson as a back up option now. So if the RVP rumours are true we're one injury away from being in the realm of uncertainty.

Leaves a bad taste in the mouth.

Radamel Falcao's season long loan move to Man United will cost them £4m more than Arsenal paid for Danny Welbeck #mufc #afc

Why do they include Falcao's wages, but not Welbeck's?

Given that we blocked the Vermaelen move to United and have now gone and gotten one of your fans' favourite players it certainly feels good to get one over on you for once - obviously not on the same level as taking van Persie and winning the Premier League but it's still satisfying.

He's going to get lots of chances in our first-team and honestly if he finish relatively well he'll score a shit load for us. Once Giroud is back we actually look to have some decent options up front, finally.
