How many people say this year after year! i bet in 20 years time when were on the verge of signing Thiago Messi, Chelsea fans will still be saying 'I wont believe it until its official after the Robinho saga back in 08'

To be fair folks I used to be a college basketball journo who dealt with recruiting which is extremely similar to transfer saga with all the mistruths nonenses and people trying to divine clues from the most innocuous actions. It does so happen that there are events that do take place but fail to matriculate for one reason or antoher. I could probably right a book about a 2 dozen different recruitments and the things that happened behind the scenes that changed an athlete's mind or a schools' mind regarding an athlete. It's quite rare that the true story gets out and no one remembers the details of the saga as mucha s the end result. It's certainly possible that MU came in with last gasp bid to try to hijack the deal. Granted I can't speak for the reliailbity of Palmeri or others but often that things that reports get wind of that don't end up happening for reasons that are not publicly divulged.

We also had plenty of wanna bes in the college basketball world.

That newspaper saying Fabregas and Mourinho met face to face in a west London restaurant, surely more people would have seen them?

Messi's wife posted goodbye to Fabregas' wife on Instagram.

How people like this end up being a journo ?

The internet makes it very easy.

If they can, then xPetrCech, for example, can also be definitely considered a journo these days.

Ask yourself, how much of an attractive offer do we look over United. Think about it.

Tongue in cheek I know the weather means little but the prestige of CL football alone is huge, massive in fact. Us, Liverpool, City and maybe even Arsenal will kick on now, I'm not sure exactly what path or direction United will take from this point.

They are capable of doing a Liverpool this season themselves though. LVG is a top manager, while he is a bit crazy he is a very good tactician. He is also known for his attractive and attacking football as well at previous clubs, I wouldn't rule them out with him instead of Moyes as manager now. Also no CL+Europa league football, will benefit hugely like Liverpool this season. I think they will be back in CL next season ahead of Arsenal/Liverpool-probably Arsenal. Well unless Arsenal start to sign players of Ozil quality more often.

It will benefit them but have you seen what they have to spend just to secure that? Look around at their team and see what players they have, they have a fucking huge job this window alone. Problem is for United is that everyone around them will kick on, that includes Everton.
