We were interested in Delph but didn't want to pay his 100k wages apparently.

Wonder if Villa would be interested in him though actually.
i would imagine if angelino comes back and stays, delph is out the door. pretty sure angelino fits the home grown quota for his time spent previously at the club, and is a left back who can also play midfield if needed.

rumoured that jorge mendes gets 30% of the joao felix transfer.

Solhekol is a known ******** artist.
Yep no doubt about that.

Was actually quite funny, on Twitter a couple of hours ago, a West Ham insider said we were interested in a Venezuelan winger from the MLS, 10 mins later an article comes out from Sky saying Sky Sports sources understand we are after the player.

Back to Diop, Phil Jones being included in the offer is rather amusing to say the least. Have absolutely no interest in the squealer though, if Diop does depart though we'll sign either Maripan or that young Turkish center back from Stuttgart as a replacement.

It's what ESPNFC does now as well, read a rumour from any outlet and within 24hrs it's a 'ESPN Sources reveal' article.
 
They've spent well over a hundred million trying to find a midfield to complement Pogba.

I'd get rid.
Since Pogba they've bought Matic and Fred which is just over 90mil.

Matic is the type of defensive midfielder they need to play alongside Pogba, but he doesn't have the legs anymore as it's been said.

Rice would be perfect but that won't be happening.

If I were them, I would potentially take a good look at Ndidi actually from Leicester, if they want someone who's below 25, has proven themselves in the Premier League, and might actually be gettable, he'd be a decent option.

And both aren’t that good. Matic is getting on and Fred has yet to show much.

Herrera was pretty good in midfield with Pogba but he’s walked for free.

yep yet they keep phil injury prone jones, chris im a deer in the headlights smalling and ashley jeez im s**t but still great young.
 
sanchez matic and fred do not under any way compliment pogba in fact they have been detrimental to him bar matic.

sanchez was a spite purchase.

fred. best bench warmer ive seen
Matic and Fred were bought to try and compliment him, Sanchez is a different area altogether.
 
and its failed miserably. if anything united should look to see how the french team have complimented pogba.

Agree, we should target Ndombele.
 
Stand corrected on £100m. Thought they had spent more than they had.

Still, £90m is a fair bit to spend on getting the best out of a £90m+ player, unless Fred improves they probably need another couple as well.

Just think United would do better cashing in and building a team, rather than a player and 10 support acts.

We kinda had to buy players for those positions regardless.
