Imagine after all this we do actually sign de Jong.
 
Let's be honest. What has happened here:

Twitter bollocks has slowly grown to the heights of today and yesterday where it is mental. Daily Mail have decided to get views by throwing a spanner in the works.

The reality is who the feck knows whether we are in for Vidal.
 
People who cite odds as proof something is happening are idiots. Bookies merely shift prices depending on where the money is going. Rumours of Vidal going to United = people betting on it = bookies shortening the price. It doesn't mean they're saying it's getting more likely to happen, they're simply covering their liability, just in case it does happen.
I wasn't being serious.
 
They might know something seeing as they've wanted to be the first to get the scoop so didn't even finish the article.

'More to follow...'

It might not end well.
 
I think there is enough there to suggest our interest is real, however nothing significant is there to suggest the deal is happening/is close. I think the correct status is something along the lines of interested and made contact.
Ok, cheers. I'm willing to believe that's how the things stand.
 
I know we have been blacklisting some twittards, but really, nothing of value would be lost if we do the same with Daily Mail.

Their article is composed of "the deal is off" and wall of pictures and videos.

The article is click-bait. The very same journo earlier reported it was on.
 
When I see an article from the Daily Mail saying we've agreed a deal I think it's bullshit.

When I see an article from the Daily Mail saying it's off, I panic.

I'd say I'm going to stop reading their click bait as it's lose lose, but it'd be a lie :(
 
So they wrote the first article on pure twitter rumours. Then seen what Ducker (normally very good on United transfers) said on the matter, back tracked and created that pile of crap article. It just screams lazy journalism to me.

From the mail? Say it ain't so.

The fact that everyone on Twitter have been in agreement that the deal is edging closer, then the Mail have suddenly said its off, it is a concern IMO.

The guy is sticking his neck on the line, until he gives us his reasons behind the article I'd stay on the fence.
 
Would be funny if the Vidal transfer gets confirmed tonight.
 
United fans on Twitter saying ''f*ck him'' already :lol:

You know I actually hate the transfer window sometimes.
 
That sounds pretty conclusive in fairness
What? Have you read it? It says absolutely nothing. It's almost the same as their article earlier, by the same writer, saying it's on. Right down to the pictures. They've just changed the headline and added in "the deal is off the table". It even has the same bits about him deciding his future when he comes back from holiday.

Now, I'm not saying it'll happen, but that article is about as far from conclusive as it gets.

You weren't being serious, were you?
 
One guy writes two articles saying the complete opposite, that way whatever happens he can say he got it right, and the other was just bad information given to him.
