It's nobody's 'fault'. FFS. IT'S ONLY FUCKING PEDRO. The level of meltdown is completely out of proportion with the calibre of player. I actually agree with you and I was desperate to sign him. We've lost many a player before, we have been building in the right direction for a while. I never expected us to win this year so why should I cry over this? I think we'll win next season when we fill the rest of our gaps. It takes a few year to build a team. Whether we win it or not this year we should at the very least be challenging after all the mobmney we've spent. But missing out on the players we have is just showing a lack of ambition on our part. Not just because of Pedro but because they actually believe we don't need anybody else.

It is always the right time for correct grammar and punctuation. Trying to put a bit of perspective on things. Also I never feel the need to correct my grammar as I know there's always 1 smart are on here that will *arse...

I really don't think it's pedro but more the fact we have dithered on a transfer and another team seems to have wrapped it up in 48 hours. It could have been a league one player for all I care, fact remains we couldn't get the business done and are trying to pin it on the manager.

Otamendi isn't actually done yet. Pedro, I don't and never really cared about. Ditto Ramos. You started the bloody Ramos thread!!

We'll probably challenge this year. We were never ever going to win it. I don't mind us taking our time to put the last 3 pieces together. If we get them right we'll destroy the league.

I'm just not convinced we "lost out" on Pedro because we were arguing over a couple of Million Euro. I also don't buy the "Van Gaal pulled the plug" bullshit, makes no sense, it's Utd trying to save face. Pedro has fucked us off for Chelsea, pure and simple.
I'd rather he'd signed for us, he's a very decent player in a position we're particularly light, but if he'd rather sign for those plastic twats, Fuck him.

It must be great, every time we manage to balls up a transfer, some people get to think 'well if he wants to sign for them then I didn't want him anyway.' Instead of thinking 'why do we have a fucking lemon in charge of our transfers?'

That's not ambition, that's delusion. He's not coming here, so while we fuck around wasting time bidding for him, others get snapped up/sign new contracts.

This is for you Stew #Hashtag So basically it's likely that Pedro jumped ship once Chelsea came calling. Bye Pedro.

This looks so bad on the club. Think we'll get over it.

Ok, I hear the great points on why this signing hurts us, but I for one will not let Pedro and Otamendi deals determine if this makes our summer a total failure. We brought in 5 starting players into the first team, we all screamed for Janu to get on the pitch, he has. Many have wanted our existing CB's to be given a chance, and Otamendi would have changed that dynamic.
What seems to ignite our fury is when we are tagged with players who we do not sign. Were they targets, did we submit bids? Nobody knows what the real story is, as it seems when we had a legit target we got deals done.
Morgan was going to Wenger, yet signed. Memphis was signing elsewhere, and LvG came in and personally got him to sign. Does anyone think that Schweini would have signed with Moyes still here? I am content with where we have come from two years ago, and I think we are still looking for a center striker, but if one doesn't come, then Rooney has a showdown year on whether he continues at the club or not...

Not being Moyes isn't good enough any more. Sorry. Same as the team playing well for 5 whole games last year. So what? Being content? Come on, we used to set the standard. We've spent an absolute shitload of cash on players. Content doesn't cut it.
