    How exactly? I for one would be happy to see him at OT but how is he closer to signing?

    Since he got out of bed this morning, he has moved approximately 3.8 metres closer to the pen resting on Ed Woodward's desk. The one with the cobwebs on it <ok>

    If only to get the media off Moyes back, it won't be a bad thing. Also a new face in the dressing room is always a good thing. Moyes has worked with him so knows how to get the best out of him. <ok>

    Why?

    If there'd been another bid - particularly one that had been accepted, he'd have shared that fact, as he'd have no reason not to ffs.

    I think there is no much time left for making a 2nd bid and waiting for a reply, there is big possibility the 2 clubs in negotiation at the moment to agree an acceptable fee, neither me or you know what is happening .. so let us wait and see how it will ends, rushing into conclusion atm is just premature

    The clubs are not negotiating a fee, Martinez was 100% clear on that yet again this morning.

    That's not to say that you won't come back between now & Monday with another offer, but given your starting point was £28m & Kenwright will be lynched if he sells for less than around the £40m mark, then I can't see you closing that gap in the timeframe left.

    I think we'll sign Fellaini but not Baines as the latter won't cause a fuss for Everton whereas I suspect the former will.

    well, we will all know in few days what is happening really behind the curtains
    but given how it went with the other targets this summer, I will not be surprised if we end up with no one

    Based on the fact that he's said **** all on the subject all summer, he's trained every day, played every game & given solid performances to boot, I think that view might be a bit harsh on the lad. I think if he was going to rear up, he'd have done it by now.

    To be honest with you, I'd be most surprised if both Fellaini and Baines did not end up with United by the 2nd September. It might take up to midnight (or whatever the deadline is) but it will show terrible incompetence from both Woodward and Moyes if for the sake of a few measly millions they missed out on players we want...<ok>

    Have you been for a scan or endoscopy? That doesnt sound good Meth!!
