Big fan of Anthony Martial of Monaco were you?

 

Here's hoping he has a similar impact if the transfer actually happens

[Bleeders]

Never heard of Bailly. But, hadn't heard of Martial either. But, apparently it's an initial deal of £17m rising based on various add-ons.

Is it Ibrahimovic day today?

[Chooch]

If you are referring to his clothing brand then, YES!

[LiMuBai]

BBC reporting that the Bailly deal is close

Has any announcement been made on Zlatan yet?

Not yet.

[whizzo]

Mark Wright from towie is looking more promising

[feltmonkey]

This De Gea thing is a bit concerning, isn't it?

 

He's denied it all, but apparently it comes from a highly credible witness.

[fat flatulent git]

United players optimistic about the new season, it seems.

 

 

[feltmonkey]

Oh dear lord. This needs to stop.

[ckny]

Henrikh Mkitharyan seems to be a done deal. Don't know much about him but I remember Liverpool tried to sign him before Dortmund snapped him up. What to expect, anyone?

[feltmonkey]

He's a right winger.  From youtube, it looks like he's fast, and likes to shoot from distance.  It's pretty weird when we're paying £30m for players I haven't really noticed, even when I've watched Dortmund.

[feltmonkey]

Ibrahimovic has confirmed that he is going to sign for United.  

[Mr Do 71]

[Gabzy]

The ego has landed.

[Bleeders]

So has Mkhitarayan, inadvertently via the United store.

Zlatan signing complete. Poggers next please. A couple more after that, namely a centre mid and central defender and I'll be happy.

[Nicky]

you'll never be happy.

I'm finally ready to say that Mourinho should be in charge for next season... If it means Zlatan signing too.

This is true as well.

[DC Lemon]

Zlatan should be made captain for the season. The first player to come close to being worthy of the armband in a long time.

[ckny]

Didn't Rooney take over from Vidic?

[ryodi]

Confirmed. He always looked dangerous playing for Dortmund last season and he's a great signing for you.

Pogba is a central midfielder, and we've already signed Bailly at centre back.

[Bleeders]

Jose getting shit done early. Possibly Pogba next?

[feltmonkey]

It's a far cry from the last few seasons, which were all about false rumours, getting dicked about by players who wanted better contracts at their current club (hello, Sergio Ramos) and last minute deadline-day scrambles.

So they are. For some reason I thought Pogba played out wide and Bailly was a left back.
