Di marzio has his own site and it would be reported as him. So it’s not him anyway.

I’m convinced that they are actively waiting for a bunch of clubs to waste a pile of time before coming in with some insane offer and landing him at the last second since they don’t have to play by the rules and have infinite money.

Donnarumma to PSG for 50 mil + Alphonse Areola sounds like it might happen.

Should ask for a lot more imo. I’m sure the cunts in charge will be happy to see the back of that absurd Raiola negotiated salary though, and ideally his brother fucks off as well. I’m disappointed; it was sorta obvious we would have to sell him this year but I was hoping it wouldn’t happen.

Areola was good when I saw him, but then again I dunno how much of that was PSG's insistence on a two-keeper system sheltering him from having to play tough games since they usually sent Trapp/Buffon out in Europe

Maybe because he’s not that great. The matches I saw him play in Europe, he was never “on” for a full 90. There were gaps in his mental presence despite the other positives to his game. Facing EPL opposition every week would expose them.

City have been through this with Mangala, Otamendi, and Stones. Might not be eager for the next untested wunderkind.

Though let's face it, United are pretty likely to ruin him, which will be a shame.

they tend to ruin left backs, Fabio, Shaw (even with his improved form this year), Borthwick-Jackson, and they even tried to put Tuanzebe and Rojo out there to mostly clownish results

Fabio was never getting into the team ahead of Evra, Shaw has been very good when he isn’t crocked, Borthwick-Jackson has never looked good enough to get into the United first team, Tuanzebe is a right footed center back, and Rojo just sucks and is also a center back.

I’m not sure what the point of your post was other than talking out of your own rear end.

It'd be a win for Milan - not only does Areola not get into agent-driven bullshit drama, he has a funnier name

Di Marzio says Inter are going to take Lukaku on a 2 year loan with a €60m obligation at the end of the loan, in order for Inter to manage their FFP accounting.

Yeah, apparently 10 million per year for two years, then the obligation to buy for 60 million. Hope Woodward takes it. Lukaku doesn't really have a future at United, and it frees up money in the wage budget.

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go.

This is hilarious because it means Celtic have hosed up their carefully researched but awfully formatted transfer plan three times. And because of that, they rushed all the Turnbull stuff through with pictures and manager interviews to act as a sop to the fans and then hosed them off even more.

In the meantime Joe Aribo decided against staying at Charlton or going to Brentford and is now a Rangers player and Lee Bowyer had a little :qq:

The inevitable Skrtel rumour got squashed in record time too!
