"Im pleased as fuck to sign for united. That cooking bollox was doing my head in. Lets fucking have it!"

Bit presumptious... BBC/SSN also showed the Cardiff press release where they said they'd agreed terms with Man Utd, Arsenal and Liverpool :S
Too soon IMO unless whoever is plannign to loan straight back, only played 21 games for Cardiff!
Reminds me of that Luke Freeman we signed from Gillingham having played like 6 first team games

Wonder what you've ended up paying. Must be over £5m as I know thats the offer we had in for him.

Or it could just be the fact he wanted to go to Man Utd instead?

They never accepted our bids, so (although that may be true) it wasnt the reason for them accepting their bid over ours.

Seems he has been given permission to speak to 2 out of United, Liverpool and Arsenal - United being one of them.

BBC are saying its Arsenal as the other team.
I'd expect (unless we are talking stupid money again) that we'll match the offers and it'll be a battle of which he'd prefer to go to.

No time to name every player we've signed on the cheap and made household stars... but I'll start with Cesc, Vieira, Anelka, Toure, A.Cole, Petit etc. etc.
