Who have we missed out on so far due to not moving quickly enough? 

Maybe Delap or Cherki if you think we could have lured them away from Liverpool and City.

By all accounts we made our pitch to Delap (along with a few others) and he chose Chelsea. I haven’t seen any reliable links to Cherki. So I don't think we've missed out on anyone (so far) by moving too slowly.

I’m bored now like. Honestly feels like whatever player we get linked with eventually ends up going to another club. Going to be another window of signing nobody. Eddie going to have to perform miracles. 
 

Bedwetting over.

No, just people on here wanting him. Not sure he would be a fit.

Still early doors but was billed as a big summer by those NUFC insiders, pressure will only build on club the longer summer goes without any business.

 

The squad is just ill equipped to deal with CL football currently, feels like a lot of work to do and everything around the club seems very slow paced at the moment.

I’m not convinced our scouting network has been transformed since Mitchell said it wasn’t fit for purpose,  I wouldn’t be in the least bit surprised if a PL based player like Rashford who can play across the front 3 is somewhere on the list.

“At odds with United over the deal”… accounting for the vile use of United, we’re at odds with them because we’re not remotely interested in a deal

His seeming refusal to do any sort of intense pressing surely rules him out of our scouting immediately.

Nah, he doesn't even fit the pre-Mitchell profile.

They didn't specify so maybe we're at odds with ourselves over the deal. I would be.

'At odds' - probably because if we were interested, we'd need Man Utd to sub us half his weekly salary to even consider it

Rashford is a fascinating player and I’d be very curious to see what Howe could do with him. But it feels like he’s cooked at this point, too.

Another left winger to add to Barnes and Gordon. Not many players make less sense for us than Rashford.

No cast-offs from Man Utd, please.

 

Have we signed anyone from Man Utd and Chelsea in the last 30 years that has actually done well for us? I can't think of one. Maybe Danny Simpson, at a push.
