Not sure I believe that one, bit like the Adam Nagy rumour, he just played reasonably well in the Euros so easy story to write...
 
Yeah I heard they wanted an upgrade to Sammy the Saint, but the one we are after is ****ing us around and tarting himself around Europe's bigger mascot parading teams.

We think we've stolen a March by offering a Thursday/Sunday only role in preparation for our European campaign, but have also had the hindsight to look out for 2 other Sammie's as we recognise the demands in a fixture heavy, intensive season.

I'm expecting something official on Tuesday...

Don't joke. I wouldn't be surprise if Liverpool announced they are having a dog for a mascot next season.

It's got quotes from the chairman of Steaua- although those quotes only mention how much he wants...article fills in blanks. I'm pretty confident this will happen, but not confident enough for a Saint Nicolae! thread
 
I find it quite weird that we are being linked with wingers, even though Puel doesn't use wingers in his diamond system.

I would really like us to try and get rashford on loan for the season.

United's current attacking options include
Rooney
Lingard
Mkhitaryan
Mata
Depay
Martial
Zlatan

Mourinho isn't known for playing players that cost less than 10m and I think his opportunities will be limited, just look at the players Chelsea had out on loan during his time there.
Advantages
Southampton, exciting attacking prospect who will create and score
Rashford, game time, experience and he will improve
Man Utd, a player gaining experience and coming up against their rivals, city, Liverpool etc

The business we have put their way, they owe us. COYR
 
I really can't see Utd being open to loaning Rashford out this month. But maybe in January, if he has hardly had a kick, it might be an option.

I wouldn't be totally surprised if they offloaded Young or Depay over the next 10 days though. Or Mata, if a sizeable offer comes in.

Joel Campbell joints Sporting Lisbon from Arsenal on season long loan. I wonder if that indicates Slimani is on his way somewhere?
