jaysus, i had it in my head you were about 21 or 22.

Haha, well I spend much of my working hours managing teams in different countries which requires alot of serious discussions about various projects.

So when it comes to boards, I tend to shoot the sh!t quite a bit.

And also, we are not signing Ramos, so there's that too.

He will perform better than this year, that's for sure.
Anyone's guess really, but utd were right to not sign him.
His wages aren't really an issue at Chelsea or a big club so it's not a massive risk.

At United, he was expected to score because he's always done that. More pressure on him at the Copa and matyters were compounded.

If Jose can lift the pressure and coddle a bit of confidence into him, he might get a decent return. I think he'll get a bit more game time as well.

And what happens if you encounter a female with breasts in the workplace? Mass hysteria or spontaneous combustion?

Gowl would there not be a problem of not doing work and being on a forum?

Maximus if its "grown ups" surely they wont be horrified by breasts? Or have I warped back to the 30's or 40's? Or do boobs cause mass giggling fits/seizures?

Its a pair of covered breasts. Oh my god its basically hardcore pornography brintys posting.

Ehhhhhh. Christ above. I am nable.

It's professional conduct and inappropriate for a work setting. A lot of us are big boys and work in finance or it. We don't go around touching boobs because there is females working with us.

Christ. You're fairly immature. I thought I was bad, you take the biscuit.

What happens you when you cross paths with a female?

Giggsy11 · 03-07-2015 2:11pm

With Falcao off the books and Nani moving on we have saved 350-360K per wages. Adding RVP, Hernandez, Evans, Cleverley it's around 41 Million in wages.

We could sign few high earner this season.

DrPhilG · 03-07-2015 2:15pm

Quick question, as I'm a relative newbie around here.

Has Futureguy ever disappointed?

In other words just how giddy should I be about the "fact" that we are definitely not signing anyone today, particularly Ramos.

It almost certainly means that Ramos will sign in the next few days, or an equally exciting player will sign out of the blue. Such is the way of the Futureguy.

When FutureGuy says we're not signing player X we get all giddy and excited and post gifs and drink beers cos its most likely said player will be signing imminently.

Apparently this was changed to the Friday night at the request of the Police in England, there is going to be a English Defence League march on the Saturday, which will no doubt have a huge police presence.

So will United have more Spanish players in their starting 11 than Real Madrid do next season?

Weird that the liverpool match is the half 5 kick off on a saturday. Normally they want that game done as early as possible!

Tippex · 03-07-2015 3:18pm

One of the guys that works with me is 100% convinced that we wont see any signings until the end of the month and no photo ops until the new kit deal kicks in.
I cannot imagine the club potentially jeopardising the season due to this but I suppose there is some merit in it.

Times and dates are still subject to change after that? someone correct me if I'm wrong.

If the preparation of the team for the coming season was jeapordised by some ****ty ****e regarding the new kit deal, I'll imagine we will hear it from Van Gaal pretty first.

He was happy to rip the hierarchy a new one regarding the pre-season tour, when he had barely got his feet under the desk.

Thats why I don't believe they will wait around but it is certainly doing the rounds with the conspiracy theorists....

I'm in agreement. No way that would be tolerated by Louis. Someone started that rumour ages and I'm surprised anyone actually believes it.

Manchester United v Aston Villa match on Friday night

Aston Villa will host Manchester United on a Friday night in their opening home game of the new Premier League season.
The match will be played on 14 August because of "unique circumstances."
West Midlands Police rejected a Saturday match because of an English Defence League march, and United are in Champions League action the following week, ruling out Sunday, 16 August.
Friday night football will feature as part of the new TV deal which starts from the 2016-17 season.

It would also be a bit much not to sign anyone until August 1st when the first league game is only a week later.

Setanta are just climbing into the bin as we speak to see if there is any left overs for them.

DM_7 · 03-07-2015 6:20pm

Sad to see Nani is off.

The last couple of seasons prior to his loan were disappointing overall and the manager changes really hurt him. He had really good talent and ability. If United were doing better I think they would have held onto him and gave him chances to get back to form.

Van Gaal, like he did with Welbeck for example didn't believe he was worth a place though and sadly that is the end for him. If he was on the books last season he would probably have got chances which makes it more of a shame.

Its always bad to see an exciting player departing, especially when it feels like he could have achieved a lot more.

Some of the squad back in Carrington...

They're not back 2 minutes and Ander is already out with the phone for the selfies. You just know he's the kinda guy who goes to a gig and records at least an hour of it on his phone, but I still love him.

Despite the lack of incoming players this week and the departure of one Luis Nani, I'm still immensely looking forward to the new season.

Id imagine ya do mate, wouldn't be paying for either their coverage personally but BT is part of the setanta sports pack so you get it included but it ain't free.

Edit: I didn't mention anything about the BT package in my original post tho.
