Her surname is Carrick as it goes.
Don’t United get close to her
Read were never interested. Paper talk.
Probably not, the January window is notoriously difficult, apparently, and just remember how the previous summer window was something akin to pulling teeth with all ours deals completed at the back end.
Is he good enough to have an impact like Sanchez did for us? Or more of a long term 2-3 years down the line prospect?Arp not in the Hamburg squad.
So, you agree that the squad could be improved. And it’s being discussed in a thread for transfers. I’m not really sure why you’ve got a complaint.
I tend to agree with you about the difficulty in improving our front four and about the need to strengthen midfield. I also agree it’s tough to find value in January.
I’m also pretty sure we improve as the season goes on, so that would also fly in the face of making any moves now.
But being great now doesn’t mean we shouldn’t make moves. I remember Ferguson always signing a couple of players to go into his Premier League winning team and they went from strength to strength. Plus, we never know who’ll be a success. Our top ten signings would have maybe two or three successful players in it, so it’s not just about sending tens of millions.
Never seen him play but it would strike me as someone who would aim to make an impact in 2-3 years time.
When a player is linked with 4 clubs at the same time I think it is a safe bet his agent is just testing the market.
My complaint is of people suggesting without transfers we won't be good enough when we've proven we are.
Depends on expectation I suppose.
I’ve been supporting for over 35 years and this is as good as I’ve seen us, but my expectations have been raised due to the last couple of years.
I think we should be challenging at the top and we aren’t, so we aren’t good enough.
If, however, you are happy with top four, and we probably should be considering the Wembley situation, then we are probably good enough. All about expectations.
Arp would be a great signing to work alongside Kane and Llorente. Does this one realistically have any legs?
I'm shocked people are surprised that our windows are quiet. Not because of lack of news, but because it is Levy doing most of the negotiating. He's notoriously quiet and even put in a "no disclosure" clause into the negotiations for Aurier with PSG.
I'd much rather have a club that keeps quiet about their negotiations than one that brags and then the deals fall through

Nice if Arp works out, but we would need someone to come in and have an impact now! If it's a younger player for a high cost, so be it! We look quite stagnant this season compared to the previous season and teams are figuring out how to stop us. Combining this with how other teams around us have improved (City/Utd) doesn't bode well for us this season.
Now before someone comes in and says except for City nobody is doing that great and we are only X points behind them/above them, the matter is, we need to be thinking like City even if we don't have the same resources. City are flying in the league and are still looking to sign players and improve. Same mentality at every elite club like Madrid/Barca.
So we need to pull our fingers out our bum and sign someone who can be a legitimate starting 11 player by the end of January.

Fantastic post NabilFans want new signings.
Levy laughs a little bit.
Press release news saying that we won’t sign anyone but will also not sell.
Fans “just not selling anyone and giving one or two new contracts to our players is JUST LIKE A NEW SIGNING”
Levy literally made a lot of fans say that a new contracts is just like a new signing. He’s a genius.
I pray to god that poch don’t leave us. We are so fucked when that happens. I’m not anti levy, he’s a competent guy but if it wasn’t for poch managing us I doubt a lot that would finish top 4 on the last 2 seasons. Poch was levy lottery ticket. As soon we finish out of champions league football fans will want his head just like the good old days.
BACK THE FUCKING MANAGER IN THIS WINDOW
