It is amusing how some claim they don't rate de Ligt whilst at the same time bring up Bremer (who is awful on the ball) and Skriniar (who is slower than de Ligt) as alternatives.

Do you really expect us at this point to secure any deal? Skriniar will prefer PSG without a doubt given how we have been behaving.

PSG bound.

Hope is a dangerous thing.

Boehly really is taking the piss if all this is true. Focusing on Ronaldo when we should be getting Sterling and de Ligt over the line.

We can panic once one of Ornstein or Romano report it.

I doubt there is serious interest unless Tuchel is actively pushing for it. United would obviously prefer to sell him abroad. Again, out of both of them I think we'd likely peruse Neymar.

If given the option think we all would.

Ronaldo won't make us title contenders but he for me could've been the difference in both cup finals against Liverpool.

Thought for a second he was taking what ever Goretzka did...

Cheers thought it was the other way around. Wouldn't mind Ronaldo on penalties tbf. Which Lukaku could never do, hence the out roar in his signing. His limitations on the ball is ultimately the reason he's successful in only one system. Not saying Ronaldo will be perfect but his ability on the ball makes him a better bet he will fair better under Tuchel than Lukaku. Also ignoring the glaring obvious Ronaldo is a drastically superior finisher.

Adapt to what?

Bruno took the FKs and Penalties.

What held Lukaku back though, primarily, was his ability (or lack of) on the ball. Ronaldo may not press but we can't deny his ability on the ball.

Fake

He’s going to Bayern. Let’s be real. Boehly/Tuchel probably want Neymar.

History has told us that if we are late to bringing in players we will struggle that season, and I don't expect this to be an exception with Tuchel/Boehly now at the helm. Sterling and De Ligt need to get done. This week.

Let's be real, the only players who would immediately walk into our XI are Sterling and de Ligt. So long as those two are in the door this week, with the main senior players joining also, we will be a fine position.

Serie A really becoming a dumping ground for our former players.

You don't know that. Still unknown if Rice was a club target. Phillips would fit us better if we are after a natural ball playing DM.

Absurd we were never after Kalvin Phillips.

Nah. I’d be willing to wager this week will be more of the same. Monitoring. Working on. Perusing. Preparing. Inquiring.

Monday - Fee agreed with Sterling. Sunday - No fee agreed yet. 😂

Law, Jacobs, Ornstein, and Romano have all reported it was always Sterling + Raphinha or Dembele.

All reports suggest Sterling was the priority.
