    Del bosque and pique apparently confirming, by accident, fabregas done to Chelsea.

    Costa and fabregas, and united sitting on their hands like usual. Fecking insane.

    Ye the English commentators and pundits thought he was harsh done by. The World Cup hasn't even started yet and I'm already sick of the english media.

    It was a horrible tackle and deserved a red any day of the week. Valencia's reaction was stupid and he obviously deserved to go but that is not relevant to the fact that Sterling's tackle was very dangerous and he deserved to go.

    Wtf?

    hands up I was wrong.. first replay of it i thought he gets the ball and than gets a bit of valencia.. i've seen the other angles and it's a very poor challenge especially in a friendly..

    Rooney playing from the right is an inspired decision. I called it first.

    He was wasted out there. He needs to play up front for England. There is no other option imo.

    So does Sterling have "a bit of bite about him" or does he just have "a bit of dirt in him"?

    total cowards tackle imo. Knew there was no fear of getting hurt and could have put a player out of the world cup.

    it looks terrible in that gif..

    I was watching it on ITV and to be fair they did show other angles which didn look as bad..

    and the commentators thought sterling was hard done by..

    anyways there both very lucky there will be no suspensions..

    Ya i'm sure if the tackle was on any of the precious english players they'd have a different tune. No defence of that tackle, look at the distance from where he starts making the tackle from there to the ball. Token effort to get the ball imo and definitely a red.

    Red is fair for the retailiation too imo.

    Apparently Pique said Fabregas was sold for 33 Million but didn't mention to which club

    Fàbregas is off to England, reports that Arsenal didn't activate the buyout clause. Who signed him? MCFC, CFC and MUFC the main candidates.

    Rafael Hernández @RafaelH117 · 1m
    Del Bosque was caught on video when Piqué was telling him that Cesc was sold for €33m, everything points that it's already confirmed.

    If Valencia tackled Sterling like that the ITV lads would have gone into meltdown mode.

    In fairness, he is probably hard at work on some more sponsorship deals, they're the important things.

    After his previous leg break on the touchline against Rangers in the CL, Val is probably on edge whenever a tackle like that goes in.
    That on top of potentially missing the WC in his home continent probably excuses the OTT reaction.

    No, but he could have put him out of the WC

    33 Million for Cesc is unbelievable - Chelsea are now just pulling away from us in terms of quality :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,277 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    So who are we signing.........

    Is it September yet?

    This summers version of fellaini would be my guess.

    No team re Cesc mentioned but Pique clearly says "He has told me it's already done... yeah, he's gone. 33m, he told me."

    Chelsea get Diego Costa and now possibly get Fabregas all for great prices on the same f**king day and woodward is probably in his office negotiating sponsership deals

    So what's the excuse this summer? Van Gaal was to busy with Holland?

    That and it's a World Cup year, always tough to do deals.

    For such a big club, ran so well commercially it really is a farce how we manage the on the pitch stuff.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,277 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    If it is Chelsea he's gone to they don't even need him ffs. I think what makes it even worse is never mind the fact we seriously need a player or two in that position but he was shown the door we wanted him last year what **** changed?

    What is it with United and transfer windows.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 35,338 ✭✭✭✭The_Kew_Tour


    Sure we are grand. Cleverley is still a young fella.

    Take a wild guess.

    Maybe he just doesn't want to play for United???
    You can't force players to come.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,134 ✭✭✭✭Rayne Wooney


    It's definitely Chelsea, a few places were saying earlier that the fee was agreed and just personal terms were left

    Which makes sense with what Del Bosque and Pique gave away


    City and Chelsea pulling away from the rest now IMO

    You could try though, you know, make an offer and see what happens and every single indication on this is that united made no move at all.

    I doubt Chelsea is high up his list either.

    Money talks.
