/trans/ has only been back for a few threads and already Liverpool are making the anons SEETHE.

Living in ya head rent free lads.

Wilshere is only 25??

United have the exact same level of obsession.

Just look at the OP image.

hello where are signings

>Thomas Lemar, Monaco
Despite Arsenal’s failure to secure the France international on the final day of the summer window after having a £92m offer accepted by Monaco, the size of the bid was an indication of how highly Arsène Wenger rates the versatile 22-year-old. He is not alone. Liverpool and Chelsea have also been keeping a close eye on his situation even if Monaco’s vice-president, Vadim Vasilyev, has insisted Lemar will not be sold in January following the big-money departures he sanctioned in the summer. But another bid in the region of £90m, particularly from either Jürgen Klopp or Antonio Conte, would probably be enough to persuade them to sell.
Estimated value £90m

>Antoine Griezmann, Atlético Madrid
There was always a sense that the contract extension he signed in June was only ever going to delay the inevitable, and having admitted leaving Atlético in the summer as they prepared to move into their new home at the Wanda Metropolitano stadium would have been a “dirty move”, Griezmann appears likely to wave goodbye in January. Barcelona are the overwhelming favourites to pay his €100m (£88.4m) release clause despite being reported to Fifa by Atlético along with a suggestion that the timing of the transfer was designed to disrupt their chances in La Liga’s title race, although Manchester United could be tempted as well after coming closest to prising him away in June. A disappointing end to 2017 that has seen the 26-year-old find the net only five times this season should not dissuade suitors from pursuing a player who has proven he is one of the world’s best since moving to Atlético from Real Sociedad in 2014.
Estimated value £88m

Is Dybala playing badly?

how do I get this hairline at 25?

>Nabil Fekir, Lyon
It has been a long road to recovery for Fekir, who joined Lyon’s youth system at the age of 12. Having missed most of the 2015‑16 with a serious knee injury, the 24-year-old showed glimpses of the talent that led to rumours Real Madrid were keeping tabs on him in the previous campaign but has emerged as his side’s key players since the sale of Alexandre Lacazette, having scored 13 times in Ligue 1 before Christmas. Arsenal have been mooted as a possible destination for the France international – along with most of Europe’s big-hitters – although Lyon’s chief executive, Jean-Michel Aulas, is known to drive a hard bargain and will not allow a player who is contracted for two more seasons to leave on the cheap.
Estimated value £60m

>Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Lazio
If you believe the reports in Italy, Manchester United, Liverpool, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain have been tracking the powerful midfielder this season after his impressive displays for Lazio in Serie A. Nicknamed “Sergente” for his imposing physique, the 22-year-old can play in several positions across midfield and scored five league goals before Christmas for the club he joined from the Belgian side Genk in 2015. Born in Spain but having won his first senior caps for Serbia this year, his value is only likely to rise with the World Cup on the horizon and that could explain why PSG are already said to be preparing an offer worth more than £100m through the super-agent Jorge Mendes.
Estimated value £50m

>sell Suarez (the best striker in the world at the time) for £70m
>buy Van Dijk for £75m

Neville getting rekt from all quarters today

>Atletico Madrid are happy to sell winger Yannick Carrasco, 24, in the January transfer window

Why? Is he not good enough? Chances are he's going on loan since it's the world cup season.

>Malcom, Bordeaux
Many pundits in Brazil questioned Malcom’s wisdom in January 2016 when he decided to shun offers from clubs including Arsenal and Manchester City to sign for Bordeaux from his hometown club Corinthians, but he was cognisant of the French side’s history of providing South American players with their first step in European football, and the move has clearly paid dividends. A versatile forward capable of playing anywhere across the front line and in central midfield, the 20-year-old scored seven goals and provided four assists in Ligue 1 before Christmas and has attracted the scouts of most of Europe’s big guns. Manchester United appear the most keen at this stage and have been linked with a £30m bid, although the one-year extension to his contract signed back in September coupled with Bordeaux’s determination to hold on to their prized asset mean they may have to wait until the summer to get their man.
Estimated value £40m

>Hirving Lozano, PSV
The Mexican is enjoying a brilliant start to his career at PSV after joining from Pachuca in the summer on a six-year contract, with 11 goals from 16 appearances making the 22-year-old top scorer in the Eredivisie at the halfway stage. That has attracted the attention of several big clubs, with Arsenal reportedly considering him as a replacement should Alexis Sánchez join Manchester City, and Liverpool also keeping tabs on him. “El Chucky” has put his excellent record in front of goal – he has also scored four for Mexico in 2017 – to the help of former Manchester United striker Ruud van Nistelrooy but it may take a few more goals like the individual effort against Venlo in December to convince someone to part with £40m.
Estimated value £40m.

Reminder that Rio Ferdinand was the most expensive premier league player when united bought him

>Ryan Sessegnon, Fulham
Fulham’s achievement of tying Sessegnon down to a three-year contract in the summer after he had scored seven goals in 30 appearances during his debut season was tempered by the realisation that the teenager probably would not see out that term. Six months on, the clamour for his signature has only increased after the defender-cum-winger’s brilliant performances for England at the European Under-19 Championship that saw him finish as joint top scorer. Scouts from Real Madrid have been to watch him in several of Fulham’s fixtures this season, with the goal against Cardiff on Boxing Day his fifth of the league campaign. But Manchester United and Tottenham are the frontrunners, having been informed the 17-year-old will be allowed to leave Craven Cottage for £30m.
Estimated value £30m

>Ross Barkley, Everton
Expected to join Chelsea having repeatedly rejected Everton’s attempts to make him sign a contract extension, Barkley has still yet to return from the hamstring injury that he sustained on the eve of the new season but remains a target for last season’s champions. They should face competition from Tottenham, who were also keen to sign the 24-year-old in the summer and have earmarked him as a potential long-term successor to Mousa Dembélé in midfield. With only six months of his contract remaining, it is debatable whether anyone will be willing to pay more than £25m, although Everton may be prepared to accept less considering they will receive nothing in the summer.
Estimated value £25m

his hearts not in it
my sources say he's been eyeing a move to liverpool

>Steven N’Zonzi, Sevilla
Called up to the France squad for the first time in November at the age of 29, the former Blackburn and Stoke City midfielder has not played for Sevilla since being substituted at half-time of the Champions League draw against Liverpool at the end of November. The sacking of coach Eduardo Berizzo may offer N’Zonzi a way back to first-team selection, although his departure appears more likely given the number of English clubs who have registered an interest in the all-action midfielder. Everton’s Sam Allardyce and David Moyes of West Ham were among the first, with Arsenal also rumoured to be considering a bid. Anything north of £20m should be enough to tempt Sevilla into selling, having persuaded N’Zonzi to sign a contract extension in January to ward off Juventus.
Estimated value £20m

>Firmin Ndombe Mubele, Rennes
When Mubele arrived in France last year, it was hoped that the forward who began his career at Congolese side Vita before moving to Qatar could go some way to replacing Ousmane Dembélé after his move to Borussia Dortmund. But while Dembélé now finds himself the second most expensive player in history following his switch to Barcelona, the DRC international took time to settle in Ligue 1 yet has now established himself as a key component of Sabri Lamouchi’s side having scored five goals in just 12 league starts, including one against Paris Saint-Germain. That has attracted interest from several clubs at the lower end of the Premier League, with Newcastle, West Brom, Swansea and Bournemouth among those keen on signing him. With goals at a premium in the fight against relegation, promising Young Boys striker Jean-Pierre Nsame could be another option for any of them.
Estimated value £10m

He's very mentally weak
He completely broke down after some missed penalties

The fucking state of that mongy customer in the replies

>£70m + shitkytaryan for dybala

united thinks this is a good offer?

>United could realistically close the gap.

>Should of
Do grown men actually say this in the UK?

Big if true

that is much more than dybala is worth desu. they should just play juan mata in that position

rags for you

I hope they don't give money to fucking Allardyce. Is that really the type of football they want to play?

Should've moved heaven and earth to get Tuchel.

united has maybe a 3% chance of winning the league

Then it's quite big

Man Utd paid £100m for their own youth product, they don't know what the fuck they're doing in the transfer market (or on the pitch)

united could realistically win the league

It's unironically worse than using they're instead of their and vice versa

>should of thought about that before it then

Is that meant to be "banter"? That's one of the shittest responses i've ever fucking seen. Absolute state of Customers

me on the left

Youth product that demanded £20kp/w to play in the reserves

It's a mistake native speakers make because it sounds like should've.

Neville has always been a retardedly biased piece of subhuman manc shit. I can't believe some of you morons actually respected him as a pundit for a while.

Shut up.

I support Corinthians. It is nice to see Malcom doing so well. He was obviously not good enough for Arsenal and United when he played here, but he was also very young (one of the youngest starters in Corinthians history).

>West Ham boss David Moyes says he will be buying players in the January transfer window to strengthen his squad.
>Moyes is looking to strengthen his squad by adding a central midfielder, and is also in the market for right-sided players as West Ham look to pull clear of the relegation places.
>"I've given players opportunities. I'm in a hurry and I have to be in a hurry and because of that I cannot wait three or four months to see how you do.
>"Ideally, I'd have had six or seven pre-season games to understand what they're like and what they do, but I've not.
>"I've got to say every player has shown great desire and is committed in training, but I think we're short in some areas and overloaded in others. For example, we've got lots of forwards, but we're really short of midfield players."
Gonna be a big window for West Ham, top 15 better watch out.

>was it acceptable to pretend the line was coke to taunt Everton fans who said you were on the coke
How is that as bad as parking the bus

1.5% according to bet365

What is the chance of winning the league of Manchester City?
96%

If United has a 1.5% chance, City probably has a 98%

t. faggot
Defensive football with 6+ Englishmen in the squad is best football

That was when United had fuck all central options and he should have been pushed into the team though. Instead Fergie brought old man scholes out of retirement because he wanted his last title instead of developing someone for the umpteenth time.

Big Sam is a very good coach. England would have a much better chance of going far in the World Cup if they kept him.

>implying are Gareth won't bring football home, once and for all

>Big Sam is a very good coach

No he's not, he's a limited coach who's good to a certain level.

He's won fuck all, just like all the other limited English coaches. The fact that the likes of Allardyce and Pardew are praised to such a degree despite zero success shows exactly why English football is so far behind other countries

Can't really see Gareth Barry being called up to the NT, but sure man, whatever gets you through the day

He is doing a pretty good job at Everton.

And English teams have some of the best coaches in the world.
There is Pep, Mou, Conte, Klopp, Poch. Of the truly elite coaches, only Simeone, Allegri and Ancelotti are not in the EPL.
And you have the likes of Wenger, Marcos Silva, Rafa that are pretty good coaches.

Wonder which overhyped player from Serie A >we are going to sign

Hello, is poleaboo here?

Are Jardim, Zidane and Nagelsmann elite?

Sometimes I watch Chinese Take Me Out and pretend that I'm going on and that all the lights will be left on for me.

Probably a striker since Conte hates Batman

2am and my sister is having sex in the room next door. fucking sick of it.

>He is doing a pretty good job at Everton.

Hardly, he's managed to scrape draws against Liverpool and Chelsea, then his flaws have been exposed when they were actually expected to play football and win a match against West Brom

I'm not talking about PL coaches you monkey, I mean English coaches. English managers are utter shit, and the fact that dipshits like Allardyce, Pardew, Pulis, Moyes keep getting new jobs every year shows exactly why they will never be as good as the foreign managers

Not in the Pep, Mou, Allegri, Conte tier.

Doesn't the Chelsea board not give a damn about the likes and dislikes of their coach?

Sorry lad I'll keep her quiet

Pretend to be sleepwalking and join in, works in every porn flick.

Other than the WBA game, how did he do in the other ones, since taking Everton?

>tfw Conte signs Belotti

Have you ever noticed how all top managers are handsome as fuck?

>I rate Allegri

Tell your dad to stop then.

...

Who is Real signing in January, no one?

Nothing will top the Official Man Utd Tractor.

I only saw the Liverpool game and they were absolutely abysmal. Somehow got a soft penalty because Lovren is a moron.

I felt miserable watching that pile of shit. I can only imagine what a shitshow the West Brom game must've been like.

Probably another ridiculously overpriced 16 y/o as part of another laundering scheme

Would praise God tbqh Mario

I can't tell whether he's serious.

In 2018.

They are going all in on Bitcoin.

tractor cunt fc

>going all in on Bitcoin
>not diversifying

can someone tell me about our new manager

we're fucked, aren't we?

>all of those retarded Chelsea fans taking him seriously

A bunch of different sites are reporting that Thibaut Courtois is telling his agent he wants a Real Madrid move. Can someone redpill me on how Keylor Navas is doing?

80557478
your fat lmao

no one. conte is going to be sacked.

People genuinely enjoy being angry.

I cant think of any examples of a cash + player swap deal in recent times

He was most recently sacked by MASSIVE club Sheffield Wednesday, who are now 14th in the Championship

Nothing like wanking to your sister calling some brown lad 'daddy'.

lmao whore

>we're fucked, aren't we?
Fucking hope so

Crazy how hot those 'daddy' webm's are

why can't you give me real answers

just fuck off

What other striker would you compare Andrea Belotti to?

neither can I actually. devalues the whole deal. ashley cole to chelsea for £5m + gallas is the only one that springs to mind and that was ten years ago.
