Aye he won't give any indication he wants to leave.

Herrera: "I don't feel manipulated.How can I feel manipulated by a club like MUFC? I appreciate their interest and what Bilbao value me at"

He's a full-back. Probably on the left, since we didn't get Baines.

Aye, just read that they refused to accept the money. When this happened with Bayern and Martinez they had time to get the Bilbao Financial Council to pressure them into accepting the offer, we didn't.

Which doesn't resolve us of blame, should have sorted this fucking weeks ago.

If this is true it sounds like they just refused to accept the offer as a delaying tactic, and since we had no time to argue we just gave up.

I hope that's the case, then it's possible Herrera is pissed off at Bilbao rather than us, and hopefully we can sort something in January.

But it doesn't explain why we'd deny those lawyers were working for us.

What is a "normal club"?

It really, really isn't a giant leap of faith to figure out he's Heisenberg. Hank's a smart guy, he figured out everything Gus was up to after all.

Why would he suspect Mike of killing those men? Well, he might, but he knows Mike is connected to Heisenberg.

It's not as if Hank figured out Walt killed those men so he must be Heisenberg, he figured out Walt was Heisenberg (through other evidence) and then linked him to everything Heisenberg has done.

And yeah, my Jesse point still stands.

I genuinely don't get that last bit...did we literally just change our minds (probably 'cos we knew we'd have to pay more for Fellaini) and make up a bullshit story about how they weren't authorised?

How can you not understand the problem with the last two? It's two characters making completely illogical jumps based on what they know and happening to be right, twice. All Hank could possibly have known from that book was that Walt was the cook, its not beyond the realms of possibility for him to guess that Walt might be more involved than that, but its not a logical guess, its irrational and its such lazy writing to just say 'Right, Hank's guessed and he's right' there was no nuance and no craft to what should have been the defining moment of the series.

Then if that wasn't bad enough they did basically the same thing with Jesse. Yes, theoretically he could have had the epiphany on the side of the road showing lateral thinking Walt would be proud of and piece it all together but this is a character they've crafted in the past few weeks to plumb depths of desperation, mental instability and being stoned 24/7. It was so lazy how he found the 'smoking gun' to flip on Walt.

As for yesterdays, at the very least his confession would have given vast ammounts of circumstantial evidence, it's hard to argue otherwise, but they disregarded that as 'nothing' and went for the Hail Mary of a meeting with Walt with Jesse wearing a wire.


But Hank always knew Heisenberg WAS the cook. He thought Gale was Heisenberg, until Walt got drunk and told him that he thought Gale was just the assistant or whatever. Hank put it all together quite logically. Walt made the phone call about Marie being in hospital, he drove into traffic to avoid showing Hank the laundry. Walt refused to come to Hank's house where the DEA were guarding them at the exact time Gus was blown up.

Jesse didn't just have some random epiphany. Huell slipped his weed from him when he left Saul's office - he was then reminded of when he believed Walt had told Huell to do the same with the ricin, before Walt talked him out of it. He realised he was right all along and that's why he confronted Saul.

And anyway, characters acting out of character isn't a plothole.

It just seems like we're getting a massive glaring plot hole an episode these days.

For example, Jesse's confession could not possibly have contained 'nothing', it explains his and Walt's new found wealth. It links them to Madrigal, Gustavo, Lydia and Todd at the very worst it gives them leads to follow up on.

The week before we have the completely out of character jump from Jesse figuring out the ricin/lily of the valley thing and at the start of it we had Hank guessing from nothing that Walt was Heisenberg and not just a meth cook.

None of this has been properly explained. Feels like the writing has been rushed.


How are those plotholes?

Jesse's confession isn't enough to lead to a conviction of Walt, so they want to get more evidence, something they can't do if Walt's locked up.

And I don't understand what you're on about with the other two, there's actually nothing wrong with them.

I doubt it/hope not. He can play centre midfield though can't he?


I didn't know that, makes a bit more sense.

We didn't even get rid of Buttner, so we have four left-backs now.

Better than nothing, just gotta make do with what we've got now.

That extra £4m could have gone on Harrera though, absolute joke. Genuinely hope there's a real backlash against Woodward after this.

So we decided not to pay the money a few hours ago, but some random people decided to try and get a cut of the non-deal by impersonating United officials?

How have Man Utd become so inept at player acquisition?
