It’s beginning to look like we’re having some issues with cash flow or something

Okay.
No idea how though, we spent 50m last season and 15m this season. That's nothing in today's market
I fecking love it. Mata is a great choice. He can also do a good job for us. He is a great baller.
The spreading of payments would suggest we are spending big and trying to maximise this years budget by paying clubs in instalments. Would be consistent with the desire to get 5/6 players.
Say our budget is 180m, -15 for James we have 165m left.
130m after AWB.
75/80 on a central defender and we’re already down to 55m for a few midfielders and a striker.
If Pogba and Lukaku go that’ll be added to obviously but I imagine that’s somewhere along the lines of what we will do. Defence being the clear priority this year as on paper our attack should be incredible.
With Dortmund buying Hummels then I expect they will be open to selling one of their current CBs.
Diallo and Zagadou are both naturally left footed players who are better than anyone we have in the left CB position. Diallo is 23 and similar to Blind when he played CB for us. An intelligent, technically proficient player with good passing who likes to bring the ball out of defence, he would partner very well with Smalling. Zagadou is 20 and a much more aggressive and physically dominant player. More raw and somewhat technically weaker than Daillo but bigger, stronger, quicker and would be a good foil for Lindelof if we were willing to go with a fairly inexperienced player.
Either player would improve us and I believe at least one should be attainable for a non-ridiculous fee once Hummels to Dortmund is complete. Would also be nice to establish positive relations with Dortmund should we want to try for Sancho at some point.

Didn't Zlatan say something like that when he visited Utd in pre season training last year? Something along the lines of "It is great to see the guys, to see them happy and to see them training good. Be ready for this season, because something special will happen."
And then
United have not made any blockbuster moves in the transfer market yet this summer, with Fred, Lee Grant and Diogo Dalot the only new arrivals so far.
But Ibrahimovic added: "I think the boss has something going on.
"We will keep that a secret!
"The vision that they have for the club is truly exciting” Hmmmm, ok, I beleive you Mata. Hug.
Mata as main RW confirmed.
Two things. First there is a fair chance that the article is based on nothing and the figures that you are mentioning aren't what we spent, it's what we added to what we already owed, the club spent more than 100m in trade payables.
The Darmian money isn't going to offset much ,not even the championship transfers that are being thrown around . We shot ourselves in the foot last season by not letting him leave for 10-12 millions.
''The future is bleak'' doesn't quite have the same ring to it, so I guess that's why he went positive.
Agree. I think City, even unwittingly, are being used as a "stalking horse".
Well, excuse me for not feeling even a little bit excited, but let's hope they know what they're doing ...
This move from the club was pretty genius. Finally some news to be excited about.
Based on previous evidence I think our “vision” needs glasses.
Hopefully we see some of the Academy players step up and Mata played in his right position you cant not like Juan in fairness a couple of decent signings coming up too fingers crossed.
Hugs

I hope he doesnt mean that dude from Avengers who had that stone ripped out of his head.
Wan Bissmata confirmed.
Link at dot com?
Cheers thats all the information I needed to know. I'm off to the bookies with the family savings.
Bye.
Manchester United are understood to have agreed a fee with Crystal Palace for the transfer of Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
According to a source familiar with the negotiations, the deal values Wan-Bissaka at £55million, a world record sum for a specialist full back.

Ok, next player please.
Done dealio?
Or still too early to say?
I am guessing that, if true, £55M includes add ons.
When United backups up the Brinks truck 
More signings please!
More signings please!
How quickly can the press round it up to £80/85m I wonder.
Signing on a guy who whilst a lovely lad never fit us and looks woefully out of sync when wide and even central in quite a lot of games?
Or getting him to say it all looks exciting?
Specialist fullback? Is that some thinly veiled dig?
255 million pounds!
Because Bayern paid a lot more for Hernandez who is a CB that plays at LB too. Wanted the ‘world record’ headline.
