Several Italian outlets say that Mkhitaryan to Inter on a free is wrapped up. Seems like a good move for him and for the club, he can take over Vidal's role as the veteran midfielder coming off the bench.

Did you quote the wrong post

edit:

I mean, Ferguson did tell him to gently caress off believing Pogba didn't have what it takes to play in the premier league despite having all the attitude and so an academy player left the club at the end of their contract, so it goes for hundreds of academy players at loads of clubs year in year out. Fast forward to 2016 and Ed Woodward, feeling he needed to establish dominance over Ferguson in the board room, decided to "correct" a Ferguson mistake and brought Paul Pogba back to United amidst much fanfare. A Paul Pogba that somehow shone in a midfield of Pirlo, Marchisio and Vidal, to be the lynchpin and star of Manchester United's midfield. For an astronomical fee and astronomical wages.

6 years later, Ferguson was right, Ed Woodward is a loving idiot.

Yes, but counterpoint:

It looks fairly likely that Cucurella will be going to Man City as Brighton are rumoured to be signing a replacement in the fantastically named Destiny Udogie (currently with Verona).

Udogie is very good. I was hoping Juve would sign him but that’s not looking likely now.

Lot of great sour grapes milanista chatter that kuluku getting the call up is the preferred move to botman anyway and we're buying a dud.

Huffing that copium. Kululu rules, but the Milan front office literally aren't being given any money to spend right now. They'd have signed Botman and Sanches both if their ownership would write a check, but instead...

i thought milan were rich now or something. indian billionaires or redbird idk theres too much stuff to remember

They were just sold by one American investment group to another American investment group (a minority owner of Liverpool btw). The new owners don't officially take over until after the transfer market is closed so they can't put in any money right now, and the old owners aren't willing to spend on players in the meantime.

Even worse I think they’re doing it just to be able to register Kessie and Christensen.

It’s even worse than that, the next deal mortgaging their future that will be completed soon will get them to that state.

Sid Lowe posted an article early today that allegedly explains Barca's short term financial situation, aka "how are they getting away with this?", but since it's Sid Lowe it faffed around for a few paragraphs without getting to the point and I gave up reading it.

Is he

Are you sure he isn’t just poo poo

He’s not a pure DM, which is what I think I see Utd supporters wanting from him. He’s a basically a box to box type that is strong making last ditch tackles in front of his own penalty area, and can carry the ball forward by himself ok, but offers zero attacking threat once he ventures forward past the halfway line. He can’t cross or create chances. You can’t really play him in a pivot type role, because he can’t distribute or even just recycle possession well enough and can get himself cornered because he’s so one footed.

He is just a worse version of Matuidi.

Can't help but wonder if this is just Man U doing that thing where they feign interest in big names who don't want to sign for them to appease the fans when they get rowdy.

If so, that shtik isn't working anymore and is just amplifying the supporters' rage
