Surely that is going to spell the end then for either Baily or Lindelof, unless he is going to change tactics.

Two international defenders hardly going to sit around for league cup games.

Lindelof as cover. Bailey on the 1st boat home. Complete balloon.

Not too often a player walks away from Madrid unless they are getting pushed out the door. 

Both players have had more than enough opportunities to solidify their position in the team, in the brutal world of football they are just not good enough.
I tend to think of myself as a one man wolfpack...

Did I read somewhere that Varane is doubling his current wage, so not hard to see why he would want the move.

As well as this RM need to sell to gather up some money, they are in the same sort of shape as Barca financially.

Lindeldof gets pushed around like a child's toy too often though. Bailly a lot more physical.

Would love to sign a defensive midfielder now like Kante who would allow Pogba to play like he can for France. Varane seems more or less done. Should be going to Dortmund and throwing whatever they want at them for Haaland either this summer or next.

Steven Nzonzi would be perfect, 32yo WC winner, last shot at an A list club, wouldn't cost the world and could probably get on a 1-2 year contract as he'd know its last chance at the top level, not that he'll be anywhere near in the frame, but as an instant cost effective experienced upgrade on Fred he'd be ideal, basically Matic but not shot to bits and a better player, also has played in the league and with Pogber so no adjustment required in that regard, would already know he'll be covering the lazy sods running. How Nzonzi went from Blackburn to Stoke and didn't get picked up by a top 6 club was a head scratcher, was the potential Robertson/Wijnaldum value signing of his spell in the Premiership and got massively overlooked

And a lot more injury prone.

I dont think there are nearly as bad as Barca but neither of them looking to clever at the minute

Yeah Barca a lot worse off. RM are balancing the books just but Barca are a basket case.

United closing in on another defender also, Jules Kounde of Sevilla. He can play centre back or right back.

Twitter saying he is going to Chelsea

quit yo jibbajabba

 Up and running with impressive result and performance, some contrast from last seasons opener which proves how important an actual pre season is.

The needed rest has certainly helped Bruno with a well taken hatrick from open play and Pogba is well worth keeping if he continues to influence games like that. (4 superb assists)

72k plus in attendance and little or no masking wearing, will be a while before we see that on this island.

If he wants he will.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. When Pogba wants to be he's as good or better than anyone else in the world. Great win today and still Rashford, Cavani, Varane and Sancho to come in. Looking in a good position to push on this year.

So after 4/5 years or whatever it is are we still hostage to whether he wants to be or not? I'm still in the get rid camp.
