Manchester living is easy to do
The players you wanted I bought them for you
Talentless lady I know what you did
I won't let you take him back to Madrid
Jorge Mendes couldn't drag him away
Jorge, Jorge Mendes couldn't drag Dave away

I watched you suffer through Moyes's reign
Now you've decided to take off for Spain
No secret exits or Marca's lies
Would change my position that you cannot sign
Jorge Mendes couldn't drag him away
Jorge, Jorge Mendes couldn't drag Dave away

Perez's bid is a sin and a lie
We have this window but we don't have much time
Training has started, tours must be played
Extend your contract so you can stay
Jorge Mendes couldn't drag him away
Jorge, Jorge Mendes couldn't drag Dave away
Jorge Mendes couldn't drag him away

Whats your point? We arn't to dissimilar in our approaches & if ramos is seriously considering leaving them for us then you have to wonder the reasoning behind de gea leaving us for them. After they win the CL they sold their most influential player on that tournament & fired their manager.
 
Unless we get a player in return from Madrid, I rather keep him here and lose him for free. For me, it's not about the money. He's the second best goalkeeper in the world and even if we get 40M Euros for him it still feels like a kick in the balls. At least if we got Ramos we'd have something to show for it. Even if we get a decent fee for him, all we would do is be replacing him with someone not as good for close to the same price that we lost one of the best in the game for. And that depends on who we go after. If we offered what we get from Madrid to Tottenham for Lloris, we'd get laughed at.

He's going because they're better and he gets unlimited access to Edurne's lady garden there. There are some things even Woody can't buy.
 
I seen a tweet that madrid are dropping interest in degea. I wonder if the signings could change his mind.

He'd be excited with the defensive additions to the team. Hopefully...one could dream.:angel:
 
Written in the stars we'll make him see out his contract and we'll draw Marid in the Champions League.

Funny but i wouldn't be suprised if our signings and the state of Madrid are in convince him to stay rather then go.

I am still confident that he will stay because:
- Woodward will not sell to two big clubs in Spain after his comments last season (about stopping best players going to Spain)
- it looks like Real are not prepared to pay what we want
- all the mess Real are in - Ramos situation, sacking Carlo and hiring Benitez, fans are terrible, Florentino doesn't have the support of the fans anymore
- Iker situation
- De Gea is after all Atletico product and shy guy like him wouldn't want to get all the stick he would get if he would sign for Real

I wouldn't be suprised if De Gea sign new contract. We will offer him a lot of money and he will sign and celebrate with his friends Mata and Herrera.

Or moves to Madrid so he can stay attached to Edurne at the groin. If it's up to him of course he'll go, and who can blame him? http://www.ideal.es/multimedia/201501/15/media/edurne/edu4.jpg

What did you mean old (5 years older than he is) and photoshopped.
He will dump her sooner rather than later because of her age especially when he will get older and he will search for younger women than he is, why not do that already.

But realistically i can't see why she couldn't move to Manchester if they are so in love. Ofcourse her singing (if you can call her a singer) career is important but he can record songs in England to. I really think De Gea will stay.

The article I read claimed it was £65/200k and both figures pre-tax so not sure where I'm confused.

As Annihilate Now! points out, the tax makes a slight difference. At the end of the day, a transfer doesn't get much more publicity throughout the world than one between Real Madrid and United - I think you should sell him if he doesn't want to be there and have no doubt that's what Fergie would do. But I'm enjoying watching you cling onto him also.. it's an enjoyable transfer saga. I was just giving my thoughts, no need to be so rude!

By believing an article. Most people who have reached adulthood understand to take what they read in the media with a pinch of salt.

And as for SAF letting a player go who doesn't want to stay. He kept CR7 for another season when he wanted to go to RM. He talked Cantona into rethinking the first time he wanted to retire and talked Scholes into coming back after he had retired.

There is nothing embarrassing about negotiating the best deal for your club. Just letting them take him for next to nothing though would be embarrassing.
 
I don't think LVG should let him go. The way the summer is turning out, we could be aiming for the title next season and keeping De Gea is paramount to that goal. VG should convince him to sign an extension, with us adding a reasonable release clause, and tell him that they can both walk out together after they have won a few trophies in the next couple of years.

Whats going on with kiko castilla stuff? Any decent sources?

If I was Woodward I'd call espanyol and pay them to let castilla join madrid for 4m

De Gea would be the summer's most important signing

Agreed.

So, here's the deal:

De Gea will get paid more at MUFC than at Real.
He is already at MUFC, though clearly wants to go to Madrid.
He is at a club which is currently unable to compete at the same level as Real BUT we might get there within 2 years.
We have a manager who is resolute in not letting him go and no doubt, has told the CEO this.
Real no longer have C.Ancelotti as manager, but Benitez, who isn't as good.

A week ago I absolutely felt that Real will have DDG in their team next season. Now, I'm not so sure.
 
He has plenty of time to go back. I want to get £50m plus for him from Real. Until then I wont be happy if he leaves. But he should be looking at what we are trying to do to strengthen the squad. Hopefully he changes his mind for at least another year or two.

“The manager and the club is always dependable on the opinion of the player.

"The player decides, we shall see what he decides. He cannot say that he has had a marvellous season. So we shall speak always with every player, evaluation, as I always do. Then we speak with each other about the future.'' (this was about Di Maria but he was speaking in general)

Van Gaal has always been open about players leaving - he will not stop them. He will make sure he gets a good price for them though if they're still wanted like de Gea is, so unless RM pay the fee we want/include Ramos de Gea is staying for a year. If RM meet our demands van Gaal will let him go.

I'm still pretty sure he will leave, and have a slight hope that Ramos will come in return or otherwise we will get a decent fee.
 
If this is about moving to Madrid as a city then he's gone. If it's about moving to Real Madrid as a club then signings like the one we've made today might count for something.

Or you know, she's smoking hot and he's going to go wherever she asks him to?

De Gea won't stay more than a year, and that will be against his will. You're utterly in denial.

Have Real decided to give up on Dave?????

There's some talk that they're going to sign him just in case, and if they do get De Gea they'll sell Navas.

At this stage of the window, frankly, I'll tell Real to forget about De Gea. We need to prepare for next season and that's that. If he's off next summer for free, so be it.
 
De Gea is certainly off lads. its the Ramos deal that is delaying it.

I think with Valdes also leaving, we are certainly in for this Oblak lad...or someone like him who is pretty young. Hopefully this time we put is some very high buyout clause or summat.
 
Just read the last few pages. So an Arsenal fan wants us to save the embarrassment of our best player wanting to leave by rolling out a red carpet for him :lol::lol:

Is pretty clear that he isn't happy that we are not bending over so easily like the Fabregas, Nasri and RVP transfers so he wants to convince us that not having a tail is actually better. Well we are not cutting ours like you.

Is there some truth in that one then?

Fenerbahce are linked to the market so are legally obliged to confirm interest in their targets, if it's the same for Antalyaspor (not sure if it is) there could definately be truth in it. If de Gea is going and we're replacing him with a high-profile keeper I doubt Valdes still wants to be 2nd choice. Would mean we lose 4 keepers this transfer window though.
