    He was offered a 6+1 year extension. Club didn't want to sell until Newcastle showed interest and the player pushed for the move, as David Ornstein stated. 

    He's a good chance creator from out wide and definitely a player that can be molded into a good LB. At the moment he is still horrific defensively.

    £30m+ for a 18 year old with only 8 Premier League starts is pretty good business. 

    That's a ridiculous fee, something dodgy going on at Chelsea. That fee has blown my mind given his lack of games.

  2. It isn't confirmed yet but I expect the atmosphere to be toxic if he was to return to the fold.

    Sends out all the wrong messages to young boys.

    He was a talent, but that shouldn't make a difference. We're a huge global brand and this will without doubt tarnish our imagine massively.

    I wouldn't blame some of the female staff for walking away from the club or the female players for that matter.

    I think it's time for Del to call it a day

    It was time about four fights ago.

    Feel genuinely worried for him and his health but Hearn us rolling him out on cards for his name alone as its a big name on the under card.

  4. I fail to see what Moyes influence has had on what I've seen of Paqueta. 

    He doesn't look to me to have an major attribute that would make him worth 110 million. He's not fast, he's not incredibly skillful, he gives the ball away a lot, he doesn't really tackle. 

    I know he's not a bad player but it's a bit of the left field transfer signing if you ask me. You lose Gundogan and Mahrez and sign Kovacic and Paqueta. Such strange replacements.

    Why didn't they just sign Rice, he's the better of the West Ham lads.

    I agree, the report suggests that if Kane is to join Man United, Chelsea or PSG, it's likely that he'll join them on a free next season. 

    He's not signing for Chelsea or PSG. If he went Chelsea he'd be hated by Spurs fans, PSG is a club in a mess.

    United are progressively getting back to being competitive for the major trophies, regardless what a frustrated fan thinks we won a trophy last season and lost another cup final.

    We're not a million miles away and I'd expect us to improve again this season. If we'd added Kanes goals this coming season who knows how far we'd be able to push in the Champions league.

    Yes you are. You are so far off Manchester City. There’s three clubs that fit the ‘guaranteed leagues’ / CL potential. City, Madrid and Bayern. Anywhere else would be pointless if that’s how he is viewing things.

    Of course it would be brilliant business. 

     

     

    I agree City will win the league for the foreseeable future but the Champions league is a possibility.

    A lot of luck can go your way in the competition and I'd say that's a more realistic short term title than a 38 game season against City.

    According to reports, Man United, Chelsea and PSG all want to steal the signing of Kane from under the noses of Bayern at the last minute.

    Harry Kane: Bayern rocked by mind-blowing hijack as Man Utd, Chelsea burst back into race; new Euro giants also in mix (teamtalk.com)

    We're not in a position to spend 100 million on a player this summer. Not unless we sell, Maguire, Mctominey, Fred, Henderson and Martial.

    That's not going to happen, we'd defo take him for free next summer and he'd 100% walk away from Spurs to play for United.

    They're not winning the league or CL any time soon either 

    Were not a million miles away from winning major trophies. We've got the right manager all we need to do is get back to cherry picking the best players from the little clubs and we will be back on track.

    Getting Kane for a free for a few years would be brilliant business.

    My mum and my uncle got loads of abuse after the 7/7 bombings. Honestly, my uncle's faced so much racist abuse in the UK I'm surprised he likes living here

    Yeah, total scum mate.

    I've heard loads of racism over the years like everyone has but this was actual clear and utter pure vile racist activity. 

    Thankfully at the time we as a group, City and United fans came together to force them off, I'd say about twenty pushing four of them off.

    Nothings acceptable but that was the worst case of racism I've ever bared witness to. 

    I actually remember how thankful the dads face was after, imagine the pressure he was under. Its a horrific situation.

  10. Another horrible incident, was on the tube in London after United vs City Community shield game around 2011/12.

    Asian guy standing there with a son maybe about 6 or 7 years of age, it's packed out as it's after the match and four guys start to racially abuse the dad pissed out of their heads. It was horrible, usual horrific stuff about going home and other stuff I wouldn't want to write down.

    Thankfully the people of the tube weren't having it, a large number of us decided to stand up against them and force them off at the next station.

    Awful seeing the young boys face so confused and the father actually scared to death not knowing what to do given he was with his child.

    So much scum in the world.

    Jesus fucking Christ! How long ago was this? Recent or a while back?

    I was about 18/19 mate, so about 22 years ago.

    Was a bit of a panic actually because one of the door staff was my cousin. That particular night my cousin from Blackpool was down and I'd took him out for a drink in Swinton with a few of our other cousins and all hell broke loose. The place got raided by armed police straight after and we got bundled out of the back door. 

    Needless to say my cousin from Blackpool never came down on a night out again. 🤣
