So according to David Ornstein:

"Arsenal have reached an agreement with Lille to sign Ivory Coast winger Nicolas Pepe for ~€80m, paid by instalments to fit #AFC budget. 5yr deal, agent agreement still needed but set to be closed in next 24/ 48hrs. Napoli also have agreement with #LOSC but agent rejected proposal"


Arsenal are going to ourspend us aren't they?

Sychlops

1.) 27 Jul 2019 11:28:32
Is there a trophy for "outspending" all comers?


2.) 27 Jul 2019 11:37:57
The same arsenal that can't afford Zaha for less than the fee quoted here?


3.) 27 Jul 2019 11:39:09
Yh that's how it works usually Scooby, sell Lukaku and our net spend will be close to nil, ambition!


4.) 27 Jul 2019 11:42:32
Also read somewhere (probably slysports) that he's joining Napoli.


5.) 27 Jul 2019 11:43:09
Welsh Red Devil. Smoke screen whilst working this deal perhaps. Villa spending £100m and AFC have only £45m. Can't see that being true.


6.) 27 Jul 2019 11:46:58
Scoobydog- Nice banter but the point here is Arsenal already have two potent goalscoring forwards in Laca and Auba and are still adding more.

United on the other hand have only signed a raw talent in that department.


7.) 27 Jul 2019 12:01:09
Haha player we are linked with signs for someone else, this site goes into meltdown, so obvious and so boring. United has worries about Pepe’s attitude and if we paid £80m for him when we are in desperate need of a defender and midfielder people would be moaning saying we are overpaying. It’s hilarious.

Scholes, I assume your ‘net spend’ post is a joke, united have spent a lot of money in recent years, your post makes absolutely no sense.


8.) 27 Jul 2019 12:08:48
Its starting to get ridiculous now that we haven't got at least 2 more signings if this board let's us down again its a disgrace were supposed to be one of the richest clubs in the world its an absolute joke.


9.) 27 Jul 2019 12:24:32
Scott 😂 good one.


10.) 27 Jul 2019 12:30:40
2 weeks of the window left yet, Maguire and Fernandes are just acceptable offers away from being United players, Pogba and Lukaku may leave but with the academy kids doing so well and the aforementioned signings I'd be pretty happy with that. Not convinced we need to replace Lukaku with James, Greenwood, Martial, Rashford, Lingard and the way Ole wants to play, he could well leave before serie a window closes, pogba stays if our window closes without a replacement (SMS) bought imo.


11.) 27 Jul 2019 12:32:40
I think some have missed the point re my "outspending" trophy remark. Oh well.


12.) 27 Jul 2019 12:58:22
Don't worry. Woody will put in a bid of £25M. That'll shake 'em.


13.) 27 Jul 2019 14:02:42
Ed002 has clearly stated on the rumours sites that Pepe will not be joining Arsenal. I think I'll believe him.


14.) 27 Jul 2019 14:06:42
Elaborate? GDS2

Welsh if it's just a case of agreeing fees would it not be better to get them wrapped up asap so OLE can get them integrated into the team before season starts.


15.) 27 Jul 2019 14:51:27
I agree Scott it would be but as per ed002 United negotiators not covering themselves in glory where doing deals is concerned atm.


16.) 27 Jul 2019 15:27:42
Exactly its far too slow oles got the squad all singing from the same hymn sheet and got the youngsters playing brilliant but he needs help we need 2 positions filled AM and a CB and 2 of the the best want to come so just pay the money.
I think if we can get MAGUIRE and FERNANDES in we can get top 4 no problem.


17.) 27 Jul 2019 16:35:28
Let’s not worry about who other clubs sign.
The time to judge will be when the window closes.


18.) 27 Jul 2019 16:43:28
Southern Monkey. Might want to read ED002's latest note on Pepe.


19.) 27 Jul 2019 17:42:08
Sorry, Sychlops. Just read it. Still stick to believing what Ed002 says though. ;)


20.) 28 Jul 2019 07:54:03
You know what guys with too much social media about!

Clouds our judgement and we can not see straight

Intrust with Ed's.

Just saw a tweet which said that the United store have stopped making Valencia 7 shirts since he's getting a new number for the 2013-14 season.

Could this mean anything?

Sychlops

1.) Thiago as the new iconic number 7?


2.) Bebe's coming home, and he's to be given a fitting shirt number!


3.) ALso just been too OT and can't get a Valencia No 7 shirt


4.) I would love and hope this to be true as I like Valencia must the iconic number 7 for him. no! And don't even get me started on the jersey being given to Owen before him! Best, Robson, Cantona, Beckham, Ronaldo, please tell me we have a new name to fill the shirt and his name is Thiago as for me his capable of filling it and bein gmentioned in the same breath as some of those names mentioned. SAying that, why would a "shop" not sell merchandise, sounds like bull, hope it isnt
Invisible Stuey


5.) I've just been to ot and you can get a valencia 7 shirt.


6.) You can also order the Valencia 7 shirt online via the Megastore


7.) You can print Valencia 7 on a shirt, but the megastore cannot guarantee any numbers yet as they’ve not been announced.

Also it is worth noting that the ONLINE aspect of the clubs store is serviced by a 3rd party company, Kitbag. So the online store would still be able to buy whatever name/number you wanted.
Goc5560


8.) When do they get announced


9.) What if your last name happens to be Valencia and you want number 7? Will they refuse that too?

redseven


10.) Ronaldo. booooooooom.


11.) Surely if it was ronaldo he would have the number 9 shirt hence CR9?

so if true it could be Thiago?


12.) CR7 - PLUM!


13.) CR9 was 1 season. Take notice before piping up!


14.) If the iconic number 7 has been taken off Valencia, its more than likely the club feel that the number was a burden to him last year as he played nowhere near his full potential.

Cesc Fabregas (on a Catalan Radio Station) "All rumours linking me with Man United are false, I will not join Man United. "

There we have it.

Sychlops

1.) 01 Jun 2013 19:41:11
and people actually thought he would join


2.) Never believe all you hear or read.

"@ManutdRedCafe
Gill and Woodward looking to pull off something big. Maybe more than one if all goes well, as Sir Alex's parting gift to you. Fingers crossed"

What do you guys think this "something big" is?

Sychlops

1.) Where do you get this news from?


2.) Ahh! The infamous itk tweets. Shouldn't this be in the dodgy rumours section eds?

REDFAITH {Ed004's Note - Probably}


3.) Bale + Ronaldo/Lewandowski

But really it's dodgy!


4.) Pul off somthing big?


An elephant?


5.) Horses and donkeys are quite big if they are looking to pull something off.

Brendan81


6.) This is the third or fourth time I have heard this rumour this week. Basically if it is true it is indicating either Bale, Ronaldo or both, simple as that.

Paul


7.) I hope this rumour has some girth to it. I don't care if we have to pull out all the stops, or if we have to stroke a big ego, because it will be worth it if a top star explodes into our first team.

Danny Pughnited


8.) Its not bale : (


9.) 15 May 2013 17:17:40
Mike Ashley isn't bald though. Lol.


10.) Danny Pughnited

Good pun work, lol.

HBadger


11.) Something big = bale. But this may not necessarily mean the 'Bale' we are looking for.


12.) Woodward and Gill to announce something big?. Fergie retiring is big I guess. Rock the Red


13.) Is it not about time we accepted that as a club, we don't do big. Yes RVP move was significant, but we don't do transfers (in) that "rock the world of football". According to the ITK's on social networking sites we had signed Sneijder, Alexis Sanchez, Lucas Moura, Eden Hazard, Luka Modric in recent seasons. None of which actually happened. So what signs are there that we are going to spend £50m+ on Ronaldo or Bale or Falcao?
I would love to see it as much as any other fan, but being realistic we are looking at £15-20m players and turning them into better players.

Sambo


14.) Sambo, your last sentence about who we do sign completely contradicts the signing of RVP. You have been reading too much sh!te. We had the money and did try too make 2 huge signings, both of which chose other clubs.


15.) No name. I intended to put RVP aside. But you get what I'm trying to say surely? People speak of Bale or Ronaldo but that would require us to break transfer record in this country. Can you see it? We regularly paid circa £25-30m, Rio, Veron, Rooney, but we haven't gone "all out" to sign someone for a while.

Sambo

P. s I will be first to admit I read to much sh!te :-)


16.) For what it's worth, the tenants in Ronnie's Cheshire pad has been served notice (he never sold the property, instead rented it out). I know it sounds superdodgy, but if you know anybody at Foxtons (the concerned real estate agency), you can easily confirm it. Just sharing a rumor, for all I know it could be Ronnie doing a good turn to the returning Bebe :)


17.) Sorry, name's ~Cj


18.) CESC, DI MARIA, AND A CERTAIN POLISH ST. HHHHHHMMMMM


19.) Probably referring to an increase in ticket prices


20.) Probably gained or fellaini. We don't buy big anymore.


21.) Eric cantona is being signed up to lay our new pitch. think there's a trailer load of seagulls helping him out as well.

wat a surface it shall be.

Anyone got the code for the site's fantasy league?

Sychlops

1.) 11 Sep 2020 18:50:55
Haven't seen one up yet, mate. I'm looking it too, so if you find one get it on here quickly!


2.) 12 Sep 2020 08:44:03
Was just about to ask the same thing. I don’t know if the same person creates it every year but if not I don’t mind creating the league? Don’t want to step on anyone’s toes 😂.


3.) 12 Sep 2020 09:36:04
Doesn’t look like there is one. Was searching for it too.


4.) 12 Sep 2020 10:45:41
this is the code. was posted last month
ehr8k2.


5.) 12 Sep 2020 10:57:18
Thanks rddu.

Ed’s please done let my previous post come through 😊.

Any know the Football Rumours Super League fantasy code? Seems it hasn't been renewed this year or maybe I missed it.

Sychlops

1.) 09 Aug 2019 09:13:16
It has been posted mate as I've joined it, can't remember who by but have you searched for "fantasy". On this site, that is. Don't type that into Google without safe search enabled 😉.

Hi guys,

Traveled to Singapore to watch the pre season friendly vs Inter. This is the first time I've watched United play in the flesh.
Can't describe the moment I watched the players walk out for the warmups and the for the kick off.

2 hours just flew by. What an atmosphere. What a day. Worth all the time, effort and money spent. A day I'll never forget. Just thought I'd share it with you guys.

Cheers.

Sychlops

1.) 21 Jul 2019 16:29:07
Nice to hear that Sychlops, wish you many moe matchday experience.

Would have gone myself but traveled unfortunately.

Hope transfers work out and OGS improves the team. Hope we do great this season 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽.


2.) 21 Jul 2019 16:50:12
Sychlops it’s a great experience, one that many fans outside the UK never get to experience. Well done for making the effort and showing your support.
Cherish the memory 😊.


3.) 21 Jul 2019 17:49:12
What a moment and what an atmosphere you created!


4.) 21 Jul 2019 22:17:32
Glad you enjoyed it 🙌.

Who or what about this years team impressed you the most?


6.) 23 Jul 2019 12:00:34
Perthredmike: Been genuinely impressed with the work rate of the team. Based solely on the Inter game, the pressing was relentless. Considering the energy sapping humidity levels in Singapore I would say that was some amazing commitment from the team.

Player wise both Greenwood and AWB have been top notch. Greenwood has an instinct to be in the right place in the box and can create space to shoot from the tightest of angles. AWB we knew what we were getting. A young quick player who loves a tackle. Needs to work on his overlaps though.


The only concern I have is there's no chemistry between Martial and Rashford. Martial in general has been guilty of hogging the ball for too long and then getting crowded out by the opposition defence.

All in all, it seems positive. Let's see how the season goes.


7.) 24 Jul 2019 12:32:20
Thanks Sychlops good to know.


 

 

08 Jul 2019 17:42:37
Was just wondering whether person who does the FPL league every year has forgotten to renew it this time around?

Sychlops

1.) 08 Jul 2019 19:48:03
Is a code on the abuse page for one I believe.


2.) 08 Jul 2019 21:00:29
I created one last season and put it on this page a lot of us joined I'll do it again in a week or so.


 

 

08 Jul 2019 06:33:45
So there's this guy on the reddevils subreddit who's basically copy pasting Ed002's notes and posting them as his information.
The muppets thread is quite hilarious there.

Sychlops

1.) 08 Jul 2019 08:16:39
Oh yeah! You should see the meltdown that happens there. Apparently, every third person is ITK.

It's crazy how that sub is more of a regime than a place to voice opinions and a lot of them are completely clueless about a lot of things.


2.) 08 Jul 2019 09:11:55
The muppets thread is just a laugh, everyone is much more positive than the usual fan.


3.) 08 Jul 2019 11:09:51
That's why this place has been home for so many years. Anyone here who has information doesn't have an agenda. This site is one of a kind because it's not trying to meet a daily quota, not trying to clickbait, just supply the information and discuss the world of football unedited.

Reddit is full of people gambling on information just so they can get fake Internet points if they get it right. Even websites like F365 have gone to the dogs over the last few years because they focus on crappy tweets and third hand accounts as news.

In a world that consistantly rewards people who warp reality to make themselves seem more valuable, it's amazing to have a website that cuts through all the fat and delivers an amazing free product.

Well done to all the eds and contributors.


4.) 08 Jul 2019 14:17:17
Ok now some people there are saying maybe ED002 is ITK 6.


5.) 08 Jul 2019 15:31:27
They are the same as Eds notes alright. Very similar. Ed must have 32 hours in his day as a rodeo clown, philanthropist and keeping the vegetables happy on all United pages!


6.) 08 Jul 2019 16:24:47
Imitation can be seen as a form of flattery or you could think this person is ripping off ed002 work. That said unless this individual is also releasing sharkopods with legendary film and kids soundbites (eg. dropping the banana splits theme had me laughing) they will always be a pale comparison in my eyes.

Thinks it's Italian footballer and now TV presenter Massimo Brambati and not the Juve president who "knows" RVP is unhappy.
