Di Marzio doesn't say we have bid or will bid for Fabinho. He says Fabinho is one of three midfield targets. Given that you have an Italian hack writing about a Brazilian player based in France possibly transfering to an English club, it should all be taken with an almighty pinch of salt.
Fabinho

Being top of a transfer list tends to a positive sign we are going to sign them. If we don't go all in for our top target then who do we try to sign?
He's the same Italian hack who called a certain Portuguese manager signing for a certain English club way back in Feb 16'. As well as calling the Pogba transfer, he'll clearly got a very reliable source at the club.

Monaco is a special case, there is a lot of football people leaving or spending time in the city particularly agents and some of the big italian agents. So it's not surprising if Di Marzio is clued up about the club.
Yup from what I've seen (limited amount may I add) he looks a proper player.
Though the Caf did tell me that Darmian was a marauding attacking fullback
In Italy maybe. I think Darmian is a good player and he is showing his worth now. The Caf turned on him quick because patience is for communists or something.
Finally.
agree and also less intercepted passes from us considering his passing stats. He also disrupts the midfield and attack for the oppo which not only neutralises any build up at that point but opens an opportunity for either a counter or progression/transition into attack.
Please be true
Fabinho
Yes please!
Yes please!
Agreed captain. I'll set the coordinates for the Gamma Quadrant
We could do with a player of Gilberto Silva's quality, which he clearly is.
Christ. Even acquire me beat him to those exclusives.
He's got plenty wrong in the past and this all sounds rather vague but there have been numerous reports from a variety of hacks about our interest in these players, so we'll wait and see...
Definitely improved and has looked relatively solid. But feck me, he's been horrendous for most of his tenure.
What a fecking player he was.
For which I'm sure you dismissed because, you know, he's just a hack.
You're calling into question the most credible source around, mate. What sources should we be taking interest in if not someone with s superb track record?
Haha. Finally what?
Finally that we got linked to him from some credible sources mate.
You're right.... his cost Exceeds 300million.. that's a shitload of money
This is the type of player I want to see us linked to. I will admit I haven't seen a lot of him but he's getting good reviews and its a position we need strengthening.
No you are being very misleading in your replies, pretty sure you said something alone the lines of "Since when has central midfield been an issue this season?"
I'd argue all season as it has Pogba and Herrera having to do a lot of donkey work and limit their creativity
you didn't answer the question posed by @ivaldo . Where is your source or statement from anyone that anyone wants a different club?
Genuine question I want to confirm if he or anyone representatives had said this.
Peak Messi is priceless, 300m wouldn't even bring Barcelona to the table.
Fabinho in CM with the two crockinhos as CB and LB respectively.
We never sign the players I really want us to so this (Fabinho) isn't happening
make it so!
I hope we don't go for Mbappe. I'd rather we get Griezmann. I also want Rash, Martial, Miki, Mata, etc. to get a fair chance.
If we get a second attacker besides Griezmann, we should be going for someone muscular, like Lukaku, to replace Zlatan.
Fabinho would be perfect though.

you mean you didn't want the Fellaini signing??
Acquire me > Di Marzio. Christ! Only on redcafe!
Nothing against acquire me by the way.

Di Marzio has a decent track record on Italian-based players and Raiola's clients. Why are you so sure that he's particularly connected at United? A Mendes client like Fabinho, I'd probably wait for Duncan Castles. At any rate, not much sense in getting excited about anyone reporting interest, I imagine we'll have genuine interest in 20+ players for the summer (numerous options for each desired position).
I see. Cheers.
Given that he's a RedCafe poster, I'd say that's about right, yeah.
I see. The confusing part is that you are both using Di Marzio to make a claim then using that same Di Marzio to make a claim against him.
By horrendous you mean physically overmatched then yes.
I'm new here. What's a crockinho?
A Brazilian version of Jones and Shaw. Crock-inho
We never sign the players I really want us to so this (Fabinho) isn't happening
Ibra, Pogba?
What is the link between Fabinho and the other two?
You do seem confused. Anyone getting giddy about the prospects of signing Mbappe based on this Di Marzio article should also take note of the fact that in the very same article Di Marzio says our bid for the player was unsuccessful and that the player is interested in joining a different club.
Nothing about that is contradictory.
Like most I didn't really believe Pogba was an option, it's like wanting to sign Messi and Ronaldo
Test monaco and just straight up offer €120 million for mbappe and Fabinho.
The figures they want (if true) are never going to happen in a million years.

You're right....this is absolutely crazy idk how I never read about what his transfer fee would be until now.
Peak messi is priceless if he stays with the club for an extended period of time...
I'm curious as to how many years do you think peak messi would have to play for a team to make his price payoff in their eyes ? surely if he chose to stay for only a season or two , then 300mil+ would be better used on the whole squad
