Rumors, Rumors & Rumors

[Kay Age El]

Never quite understood the rules on here, is a rumors thread allowed or do we need one for any specific rumor?

Anyways here's a juicy one (I believe if this happens that it'll be the most expensive Swedish transfer ever exceeding any of Zlatan's in the past).

Victor Lindelöf, 22, central defender playing for Benfica wanted by United and a rumored fee of £38M speaks a bit of volume.

Kind of don't know him at all and the few times I've seen him it's not like he's stood out like some defensive spearhead but I guess he's actually pretty awesome seeing these type of stories emerge?

@Modo?

 

[manwithnoname]

It's pretty awesome in what way?

 

[hmmmmm1]

Is this the Scandinavian rumours thread. Look forward to us being linked to 15 year GK from Trondheim.

Really good player. Not the finished article though. Not sure if he's worth the money.

it's not an 'it' it's a 'he'.

anyway, 'a juicy one' in what way?

What do you mean?

I was referring to the for me rather unknown player. Is there something I am missing?

Who the fuck is Victor Lindelof.

Sounds like someone from Harry Potter.

As in filled with fruit?

Swedes. I dunno.

 

[Insignificance]

It's the United way. If he is Worth 20 they pay 38 so they can justify making a hashtag about him and brand him....

That's how this thread should've started. More simples.

Even better for their branding strategy.

"I guess he's actually pretty awesome seeing these type of stories emerge?"

You can understand my confusion. He's pretty awesome? The fact that the rumour suggest United are going to pay £38m for him?

What's pretty awesome about any of it. Or him? I hope he's fucking shit if United buy him.

it's not a juicy one. it's a fucking borefest.

i can't understand your confusion at all. he's clearly saying that the mooted fees surrounding the player suggest he's an awesome player. which he didn't previously think was the case.

If it's a Scando only it'll be a short one at this day an age. Been a while since we've been linked with anyone from our part of the world.. however weird that may sound to the lot of you.

Chelsea are apparently interested in buying Simon Kjaer at Fener however (which would be slightly surprising), and that could lead to - perhaps - a flogging of Andreas Christensen (Cheslea-owned Gladbach-defender) - which I totally doubt as he's the most elegant central defender in the world since Alan Hansen (and on his day Agger) and strong as He Man and almost as fast as Bolt.

If however all that happens we should defo be in for the AC. Him and Matip would be the most wonderful CB pairing ever.

 

[King Binny]

Forget about transfer value and fees. It's all gone mad (esp. now that the Chinese have joined in the market)

 

[Rosco]

Rumours are fine.

If it becomes a real transfer saga it needs a thread.

 

[Skullflower]

seriously fuck off with your scando-manc bollocks. i don't normally get involved with the lynch mobs on here but i'm all for it if it's about this scando-manc shite.

 

[Kay Age El]

it's not a juicy one. it's a fucking borefest.

I find a potential £40M transfer for a for me more or less unknown 22-year-old rather 'juicy'.. all is relative though so I am also accepting that it's actually kinda boring.

Trying to explain this further is beyond my set of skills. Sorry.

Don't worry about it, I'm not.

these transfers are fucking ten-a-penny these days. no one gives a fuck and rightly so.

 

[Rosco]

I think the days of saying well if they're paying 40m and giving him 120k a week then he must be good are gone.

Graziano Pelle earns 260k a week.

I wasn't even aware that there was a Scando-Manc thing on here? What? Is THIS even a Scando-Manc thing?

Are you all tripping on Woland mushrooms? What the holy fuck is going on with you lot?

it's you. if you don't know what the scando-manc thing is then it's you.

I hope he fails. I still haven't forgiven Lindelof for certain LOST episodes.

Kinda not buying that premise seeing as this forum were more or less imploding when we were buying Mané from Southampton for even less than £40M.

Please do continue your cheerful Ebenezer Scrooge impersonation though..

Yeah but he's linked to United so everyone hope he fails. I do. I don't want United to be linked to 40 million players in case they are good.

Is it the eggnog? Is it spiked? With mad acid?
