Ah I know you dont hate him. But you said you were shocked why he got so much love, so I made it my business to point out that he is an outrageously loveable bastard.

You are correct hes a loveable bastard!!

how is it ridiclous its the truth
Man U did miss out on all those players

Yea well Liverpool signed Stewart Downing, Jordan Henderson, Andy Carroll and Charlie Adam last season, and Joe Cole the year before that. Not to mention that ye paid 20 million for Aquilani and then shipped him off a few years later despite him being one of the few players capable of passing the ball in your team.

Feck back off to your own thread and worry about the complete disaster that is Liverpool's record in the transfer market instead of trying to kick up a fuss over here.

BREAKING Sao Paulo's website has announced Lucas Moura has signed for PSG. Website then crashed

J. Marston

Paris Saint-Germain and São Paulo FC have reached today an agreement for the definitive transfer of Lucas Rodriguez Moura Da Silva.

The player and Paris Saint-Germain have also signed an agreement from January 2013 to July 2017. The player will join Paris Saint-Germain and his new teammates in January 2013 for the second half of the season 2012/2013.

By signing a young talent of the quality of Lucas Rodriguez Moura Da Silva, Paris Saint-Germain is already preparing the future.

Done deal. €43 million apparently.

Bargain.

Pudsy33

Thank **** that's over

Lord TSC

Someone called him a luxury player a few pages back and I agree. For that price, I really am not all that bothered he's gone to France....

Lord TSC

In other news, it's dinner time soon. Anyone got any good recipies for me to cook?

Jimmy Iovine

We have to nail Nani down to a 10 year contract as soon as possible now. Give him what he wants.

Fail!!!

Missing out on Lucas reminds of the time ye missed out on Ronaldinho.

RVP would soften the blow though.

TheTownie

Its cool... Fergie pulled out of the Lucas deal once he heard of Usain Bolt's availability. He couldn't turn down this value for money opportunity.

Lord TSC

I'm hoping for RVP to step out of this helicopter at the game

Jaysus I wouldn't agree. We made a complete and utter bollix of signing Ronaldhino when he was within our grasp, a proven world talent. This kid is still unproven.

If it means we are going to spend £30 millin odd on other players then I'm delighted we didn't sign a player that I don't think we actually needed and certainly wasn't a priority.

The thing is I wouldn't be optimistic that all that money will be spent.

Kylo Ren

Anyone know the teams?

Edit: Here they are.

Red Crow

We don't need Lucas Moura.

Quandary

That number 7 looks damn good on Valencia

double GG

PM me for dinner recipes. Some delicious ones available.

tinofapples

Moura to PSG in January on a 4 yr deal. Like others, I don't think he was what we needed but hope that it wasn't all a publicity stunt for the share issue.

Kylo Ren

What a clever ball from Iniesta.

double GG

Magic by Iniesta. Carved open already.

Seems to be a lot of doom and gloom at times on here about the up coming season from some people.
To be honest I am really excited to see what the new 9 months has to offer.

Ok, we've missed out on Hazard and now Moura by the looks of it, but it is fact we were in for these 2 players which shows intent in this transfer window that hasn't been shown in years, so hopefully the money spared on these 2 players will still be used on another midfielder before window closes.

The introduction of Kagawa is real cause for excitement, one of the most effective players in Europe last year, probably the main reason Dortmund did so well, and with him on board we should hopefully see Rooney stepping it up to another level.

The realistic possibility of adding one of the greatest forwards on the planet into the mix as well isn't exactly something to complain about.

Add to this the fact that we have a very young team when you take away Scholes and Giggs is another reason to be excited as these lads can only improve as the mature and grow more comfortable with one another. The improvement De Gea made as the season went on was a joy to watch, and if that continues he could easily go on to become the best goalkeeper in the world.

The hunger from a trophy-less year should only further fuel the lads to play better, and stupid mistakes from last year, especially in Europe will surely be eradicated.
Also, those around us haven't done too much to be worried about in the transfer window in my opinion. City have bought no one so far, Chelsea have signed a few exciting players but have lost their main driving force from last year, plus an underrated provider for them in Kalou. Arsenal have done a bit but if we do manage to get RVP from them think that would almost balance out there good work.

This might seem like a small rant out of the blue, especially since I mostly just lurk here, never really post, but I am just really pumped for this season, and the next 10 days can't pass quick enough for me.

When you mentioned Chelsea you spelled diving wrong!!!

adox

Awful touches from Rooney and Nani so far. Can't afford to be so cheap with possession.

Jax Teller

Interesting to see Rooney is right up top and Welbeck is just behind him .

Liam O

Fergie, y u no start Kagawa?

All I can say is thank Christ that is all over! We just dodged a potentially financial disaster there if that transfer has failed to work out....


Money in the bank, on to the next target.... PLEASE BE A BLOODY CM !!!

double GG

Terrible header from Rooney. Probably should have had a call from Young but still a terrible header. Good chance.

tupac_healy

Any link to the game lads?

double GG

Scholes.... WHAT A BALL! Handball anyone? waiting for replay?

adox

Scholes to Nani. Lovely stuff.

double GG

Scholes has sprayed 3 lovely balls already. Nani close. Should have done better.

double GG

Rooney's first touch has been shocking.
Anderson started well.

double GG

Scholes' passing has been majestic so far. Short, long.... everything, just perfect.

adox

Brilliant move from Barca. Chasing shadows there.

double GG

Fantastic by Messiniesta. Great save De Gea.

adox

How wasteful are Utd in possession?

Jimmy Iovine

Messi-like from Nani there.
