Have a feeling that this'll be the jolt to the system they need this season, unfortunately. Think they'll string a few wins together now since their next few fixtures should be easy 3 pointers. A couple of bad results for the clubs ahead of them and they're right there again in the top 4 race. If they get Rooney to sign that extension which is looking nailed on at the moment, it'll lift the club even more. Not to mention any other players they bring in next week. Makes us selling to them look even dumber.

So Wenger can't ever complain about not being able to spend and compete with us or City anymore. Buying back to back £40m players. Plus the striker they'll need if they don't convert Draxler to one. I'm sure he'll find something else to moan about.

Look, all I'm saying is that we're gonna look like complete mugs if he goes to United and becomes a world class player for the next decade for them after they put up the cash and we didn't.Obviously there's no certainty that he will, but there's a reason he's so highly coveted.

He's 18 years old. Paying £22m or whatever it is for someone who could be with the club for 10 or more years sounds like a wise investment to me.

We just received nearly £40m. That should easily cover Salah and Shaw.

And rightly so, in my opinion.We're in the same position United are. Aging LB who's past his best and will likely be gone in the summer. Couldn't be a more perfect buy for us. He's a Chelsea supporter, he's young, and he's English. Everything falls in line with the new philosophy of the club. Would be terrible if United get him instead of us. Especially if they miss out on top 4.

Oh, they're certainly not going into next season with Evra as first choice. Just hope we beat them to Shaw.

It'll make it that much sweeter if they miss the top 4. Which I'll be praying for every night just to make fun of them.

Fuck OFF! If this comes down to us and that scum, hopefully his boyhood club gazumps fucking David Moyes and the Mancs.

ShhhhWe don't want Moyes to know that. We want Fellaini there as long as possible.

I'd cream myself if we got Cavani.Highly unlikely, though.

Agreed for the most part. We'll have a squad right there with City's with the addition of a top class striker.Think United now have a better squad than Arsenal with Mata. If Rooney, RvP, and Carrick are healthy that is.

So when healthy now, United will have the best front 4 in the league thanks to us. -------------------RvP------------------- Januzaj-------Rooney---------Mata Is how I guess they'll line up. *sigh* Can't wait until we sign a striker this summer. United will probably surge and nab that 4th spot, I'd bet on it. They'll have some side next season, but so will we.

Gonna be so hard watching him fall in love with another club and tear it up for one of our closest rivals. Had to unfollow him on twitter. Can't bare watching his bio and avatar change to United shit. This transfer is as bad as I've felt as a Chelsea supporter. Can only imagine how bad it's gonna be when Lamps hangs up his boots.

Draxler's release clause is reportedly €45m. Highly doubt we'd pay that much for someone who's not a nailed on starter. Think he's almost certainly going to end up at Arsenal, unfortunately. His German mates have already begun the tapping up.

Why the fuck would we need Hulk if Salah is coming? Pretty sure this whole "he's in London" has been attributed to him being on holiday, not signing for anyone.

He'll probably take 8.

Think we're gonna get played so hard. Rooney will sign an extension and they'll have a front 4 of RvP, Rooney, mata, and Januzaj for years to come. Plus they'll splurge huge money on a world class midfielder like Vidal or Gündogan soon as well. We've just made it much more difficult on ourselves in the years to come. Only solace in this whole saga is that Moyes is still their manager. But with the players he'll soon have at his disposal there really isn't any way he could fail.

Apparently Rooney is on the brink of a contract extension. Would make this look even worse for us.

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.
