    Boy, that escalated quickly :P

    Matic done is brilliant news. Hopefully he "unlocks" Pogba like we all hope then.

    1 month left to get a winger now.

    Is there much info on who the 4th player he's looking for might be?

    Sorry I haven't been paying too much attention to the rumormill as I tend to turn off until August or so :)

    BBC saying fee of around £50m. Farking hell that is a lot of money.

    Strong suggestions all summer it was Perisic (winger plays for Inter, just in case).

    Everywhere else reporting £40m

    Seems to be an initial fee of £40m with add ons up to £50m.

    So expect United to be saying 40 and Chelsea to be saying 50.

    I had it in my head Matic was out of favour last season but he started 30 games in the league which is a decent number.

    BBC stating 50m. Crazy money but worth it if frees up pogba to run amok

    No BBC are saying the fee is 'reported' to be £50m and they're linking to the MEN for that report. Everyone else is saying £40m.

    40/50 million isnt too bad considering the market at the moment.

    Matic is a multi premier league champion and the year he was brought back to Chelsea was the best DM in the league.

    Good solid signing and like othets said hopefully allows more freedom to the more attack minded players

    BBC didn't report fee is 50 Million, they just referenced MEN site.

    Apologies,I completely missed/ignored the "reportedly" and I didn't cop it was a link to MEN either. Not very observant today and I can't even blame the booze.

    We are prolly over paying for Matic given his age but he is a player Jose knows inside out and clearly trusts, he has bags of experience and slots straight into a position we are lacking in.

    Happy enough all things considered.

    Fellaini in the starting 11 No way they have done deal for him or even close to it.

    That's worth a lot. More importantly he knows what Jose wants.

    The BBC may be more reliable than MUTV. The transmission is down.

    Love ander Herrera.. ... It's his dream to be at United when he is 36 and have his testimonial game ahh bless him.


  • Posts: 19,923 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    And here I was sure Fellaini would be in Turkey...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 119 ✭✭Thibus


    TFM not starting now? Didn't hear what happened, injured again?


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 18,740 Mod ✭✭✭✭DM_7


    That fee is a huge backing of Jose. Great to see a problem position filled with an immediate first team player.

    Still think a player who can fill in for Pogba is needed but one problem at a time.

    Look forward to non-Rooney fuelled debates and hopefully another successful year!

    Amen brother!

    Though if Fellaini goes also it could get way too civilised around here. :p
