Still holding out hope that José will swagger in to his presser today smiling and say "did you really think we'd sell him to United?" Or shock everyone and say PSG made a last second bid.

Rumors abound that he doesn't really want to come here as he doesn't think he'll get playing time. That he's waiting for another club to match our offer so he doesn't get stuck on the bench for us.

Ha!I was just gonna say, you perfectly described Walcott.

So he himself hasn't agreed to join yet, just an agreement between the clubs, yeah?

True. When you watch Salah and analyze his strengths he really is just like Willian. Bags of pace, high work rate, and great technical ability. If the fee is between £10-12m then I can't really complain. Just wish De Bruyne could've stayed and broke into the team so we wouldn't have to get this guy, though.

Would certainly be a good depth signing, but it's a bit strange that he'd agree to come here and ride the bench more often than not when he can go other places and be a regular starter.

It's being saved for Messi. We'll use the Mata money as well as the money from the Torres, Ba, and whoever else is sold in the summer to raise the funds.That should cover about 1/3 of his release clause.

Chopper pilot better beware. A couple of those United penalty balls should be on there way down soon.

I'd rather we just not buy Salah at all, bring Traore straight into the first team in the summer, and buy Shaw now. Then use the rest of the money towards a wold class striker.

No, personally think Draxler is overrated.Like I said, I'd be happy if we just bought Shaw with some of the Mata money.

He's like a mirror image of Willian but not as good. Underwhelming would be the optimal word if this happened. Just buy Shaw and pocket the rest for the summer.

That's literally the ONLY goals Hernandez scores. Tap in after tap in. So bloody annoying. Must make up 98% of his career goals.

Our board will hopefully realize how outraged the supporters are going to be and have something big planned to make up for it. Either one world class player or a couple of very good ones who can become world class like Shaw.

At least in Hazard's case if we sold there wouldn't be a snowballs chance in hell it would be to a direct rival. And we'd be getting Bale money for him.

So it's over? I can never watch a United game again now. Couldn't bare seeing him in that shirt.

All these journo's bringing up FFP for us... I thought it was widely accepted that the only reason we posted a loss last season was down to crashing out of the CL early? We've already made it to the last 16 and I thought those figures didn't include the £300m sponsorship deal and the new TV money? Hw are we even close to the FFP danger point?

This is going to haunt us for years.

Yep. Second most in the league I believe.

Does Suarez have a release clause in his new contract?

So how about we now go and spend this cash on one of United's big summer transfer targets. Pogba?

I may go to the Name Change thread and request my username be changed to We Hate Mancs.

I'm already getting my pillows ready to punch into oblivion once this goes through. Full meltdown here. We're selling our best player to Man United. So unbelievable that all I can do is laugh now.

He fucking better be.

You're right that it's a nice fee to receive for him, but it's the fact that we have no realistic chance to buy the world class striker we need this month with the money. I'd rather we just kept Juan until the summer and take £10m less than selling him for £40m now to a rival and sitting on the cash for six months. Unless José is planning on bringing in a direct replacement in attacking midfield. Then I could put this behind me and deal with it. If we got a replacement who fits José's style and is absolutely top class.
