Transfer Rumours 2015/16

@FootyAccums what if United end up bidding for Navas and including De Gea in the deal? Bound to happen right?

I'm really enjoying the European window shutting early, its showing up journalist for the staggeringly gigantic morons that they are.

John Cross at the mirror just put up an article about how some Turkish side were going to make a huge bid for Oxlade-Chamberlain not realising that the Turkish window had actually closed an hour before his article went up.

I think the rules will be changed when clubs as big as Madrid and United are involved. It'll still go through I reckon.

Real Madrid are apparently now arguing that the LFP's clocks are wrong.

"The news is the documentation was not done on time. David de Gea was at his girlfriend’s house waiting, Keylor Navas was waiting, everything was signed and sent to Manchester but the stories coming out of the Spanish media are that Manchester United sent the paperwork back at 12.01pm Spanish time, so past the deadline.

"Everything was agreed, there was a little bit of a battle of figures, but everybody was waiting in their places. The Bernabeu was full of people, but the documents signed by Real Madrid and Keylor Navas did not come back from Manchester United on time.

"The Spanish media are fuming and saying this is revenge for what happened with Sergio Ramos (not going to Old Trafford).

"There is no precedent for a deal to be done past the deadline. Fabio Coentrao was in the same situation a few years ago when he was going to potentially move to Manchester United.

"The documents did not arrive in time, Real Madrid asked for five minutes and the league said no, so there is no precedent for this to be overruled. I know in England if everything is agreed you can have an extension but that has never happened in Spain and is not expected to happen."

RT; @Manu_Sainz reporting the problem wasnt' that Utd didn't send the papers on time, but that the format they sent it in couldn't be opened

Best one so far.

"Shit, we don't have Acrobat."

Six years late but Fergie finally sold Madrid that virus.

Its in Man United's best interest to back Madrid up.

Still think he'll be a Madrid player tomorrow mind.

What's Pedro's excuse for a similar record?

He's a 19 year old who's played most of his games on the wing so far, even Ronaldo's record wasn't too dissimilar to that.

According to the EPFL website, the Turkish window is still open today. I really hope it's BS and I'd expect them to get short shrift from Arsenal, but it might still be possible.

No I bought it up because they've both played most of their careers on the wing and have identical strike rates.

According to you though that strike rate means that Martial is shit (because, as everyone knows, if you don't bang in a goal a game when you're 17 then you're shit), so the same must be true for Pedro, who doesn't even have the excuse of being young. I'm just applying you're logic, no need to be so angry about it.
