It begs the question, what the fuck were United doing when they bought Maguire?

And their key defenders lost a lot of games to injury last season as well, so they’ll be wary.

Wasn't this dude one of them, though?

He was one of them. Screwed his knee in training in January. Unlucky clash with another defender (who then went on to be in the Bild team of the year 😆 )
But he should be fine. Just that they should likely play 3412 more this year while last year was 4 in the back, so they could afford those injuries.

Fuck. I'm away for two hours and in the meantime Leipzig destroy our dreams, we go for Rugani instead and Dybala is heading to Spurs.

Typically the press have no clue - recall all the wingers linked before Pepe signed

We should return with 60m + Mkhitaryan and Chambers. Tell them that’s worth 100m pounds.

For 70m surely we could get any CB around.

except harry mcguire

If we have the economy to make a bid that big we need to get this done before the deadline. Settling for Rugani would mean another season down the drain.

Like who? The only one sure thing Koulibaly probably would cost double that, Skriniar who's also a level ahead of the young Frenchies also closer to 100m. Everyone after that is either unavailable or not any better

Somehow sometime last week someone got Kroenke to dump some money in the Arsenal kitty.

Hopefully you mean not any better than Upamecano, because we can absolutely get better than what we have for 70m. Not close to "any CB around", but a good one, absolutely. 

His full name is Dayotchanculle Oswald Upamecano btw. Bissau-Guineans and their crazy names 😆

I don’t trust the source anymore since they claimed we were going to sign Couthino

Yeah that's what I meant of course.

Not sure if it was posted but Charles Watts from goal.com reckons Leipzig are holding out for 70m. Not sure how he would know but I think he's better than his "employer" suggests

Throw in chambers/mustafi/ESR or whatever. Just please get it over the line

Charles Watts is pretty reliable nowadays, so I don't believe the rumours saying we've been told to pay the release clause. 

Bild also saying we're still trying
