It said United and Juve have agreed personal terms with Ndombele!
He's been allowed to speak to virtually every club - he'll know exactly what deal everyone can offer
Sign him up!
This is why you dont haggle on price for an obviously good player.
If you are unsure of his quality then yes. But clearly the guy is special, so just pay the fuckin money and sign the bastard.
You dont limp in when every fucker in Europe would like to sign him.

They will not sell for £55m, no chance, also, if that's our "improved offer" what the fuck was it before? LOL.
If any of these transfer rumours are true (and I doubt they are) then Levy has no intention of signing this player.
Our first was supposedly somewhere in the £40-45 million mark. We really are playing a dangerous game with this one. If the talks don't seriously escalate soon we will be gazumped by another team, let's not kid ourselves.
Just stupid. We know the price from day 1.
We spend months haggling over 5 or 10m on a player that is essential to our success.
Sometimes you just have to get it over the line. This guy isnt a nice to have. He is a MUST.
FFS, it all just pisses me off.
Might be because Levy and ENIC had no intention of signing him in the first place, hope I am wrong.

Until someone makes them understand that we might finish outside the top four if we won't make a few good signings.
Pathetic from the bald cunt, just pathetic.
He clearly has no intention of backing the manager.

As we have seen in the past though, they are reactive, not proactive.
Levy is probably thinking that Poch will get us into the top four again, irrespective of if we make signings or not and that's all that matters to them because top 4 = profit.
And of course there is the possibility that had we signed several players we may not have finished in the top 4.
Signing players doesn't guarantee success, ask Man Utd.
We could have bought half a dozen new players in the last window but they all could have upset the group dynamics.
This is why we pay a top Manager to make these decisions. To be fair he hasn't done too bad with his philosophy.
That's true and I agree but when our manager is saying it's time for us to start a new project and that we need to sign players complaining that we are the only team to not sign a player in Europe it shows that he feels we need more.
That tells me that whilst Poch is doing a fantastic job it won't stay that way forever and that Levy needs to back the man instead of gambling on his philosophy keeping us competitive.
We did have a lot of luck for where we ended up last season. Add a top player like NDombele into the mix and it could have been the difference in the CL final as well.
We definitely need new signings this window that is for sure but I hope we only sign players that are right for the club not just because the fans demand signings.
I honestly believe Poch would have made a signing or two in the last window had the right player been available but in his opinion the right player wasn't available.
We were the only club in Europe to not sign any players but we were also the only club in Europe ( apart from Liverpool) to make the CL final.
I don't want a Pogba type player, I want a player who will blend in with this current squad and improve the areas that need improving and doesn't upset the dressing room.
