Pedro

[enigma]

I don't think he will either but United have chased unattainable players in the past (i.e. Baines, Fabregas etc).

 

bayern rarely sell their best players in their primes. i don't even remember the last time bayern sold a player of muller's ilk, at least not in the last ten years; it just doesn't happen.

All I wanted for dis window was Witsel and Pedro. Well looks like 1 is coming

[JM7]

Brilliant. Well played by the club. They've acted quickly. We love gazumphing clubs!

[ashtini]

Ok, time to man up.

 

I didnt fancy signing Pedro one bit. But with the way we have started, plus beating Utd to him - get him in!

[A.D.S.]

So who else should we sign? 

[Davak]

Willian from Tottenham Salah from Liverpool Now Pedro from Man.utd. We really love gazumping our rivals

maybe the board didn't want to act too abruptly when it came to signings. like jose said, we bide our time and see what is out there and try bring them in if good enough. it is weird how cuadrado was a january signing (most likely rushed!) and now we're making up for it hopefully. got a feeling he wants to build a similar team to the 2005 one. 

[Socrates]

All a bit weird from Man United. Are they really that incompetent?

“Pedro was understood to be unimpressed by United's pursuit after failing to be convinced that they really wanted him to join.”

“Pedro's camp were unaware of United chief Ed Woodward's trip to Barcelona to try to get the deal over the line in what became a breakdown in United's attempt for his signature.”

Assuming this doesn't fall apart at the last minute, does Pedro slot straight into our starting XI? If so, who do we drop?

I know I agree with you, I'm just saying it's becoming common for United to chase players they won't get, the most recent been Sergio Ramos.

Should be Willian but it'll most likely be Oscar.

He will take the RW spot.

He's better than anyone else we have to play there.

Willian.

A forward line of

---------Costa

Hazard - Oscar - Pedro

Haz-O-Dro!

[Droogba]

To the tune of day-o.

Pedro, P-e-dro

Pedro come and Man U go h-o-me .

[Zola]

Pedo Hazard

[JM7]

More importantly, it will add depth to the squad which we badly need.

Very reliable Man Utd source. Seems 2013 Ed Woodward is back with a vengeance ruining deals! 

 

Very strange. 

 

Didn't this piss about like this a couple of years ago with Herrera, just refused to meet the buy out price for whatever reason? 

 

Also bit reminiscent of Felliani. Could have had him at the start of the summer for a cheaper price but they delayed on the deal and his (cheaper) buy out clause expired. 

 

Not like United are short of a few quid right now so strange they would haggle on the price for a player who is a bit of a bargain in today's market. 

[Gem]

Does he shoot from outside the area?

Hazard, Willian, Pedro behind Costa would be tasty. The way Cesc has started I'd think his place maybe at risk, however, for that Oscar needs to stake his claim alongside Matic in a deeper role.

[Socrates]

United supposedly ‘dropping their interest’ just sounds like saving face after having lost out on the player.

Looks like this is the end of the road for Cuadrado.

Stones next. Then Lacazette for Remy.

And a central midfielder. Then we can call it a day.

[lchk]

Not gonna happen guys, everybody is reporting it off of that fake account form yesterday...

I noticed there's a streak of pessimism in you when it comes to Chelsea transfer rumours  Or perhaps it's just me   

[CFC_RFC_TID!]

good signing if it happens, but should have been done weeks ago. 

 

I want to see the club fully flex their muscles and go in for stones, and get a new CM in after we get pedro over the line. 

 

i'd personally love it if we got witsel and fab could play up at 10

 

       

        witsel    matic

 

Pedro  fabregas  hazard

 

               costa

 

 

yeah.

Oh god, I hope no sun reporters read that...
