The Telegraph are now claiming to know the four players that Mourinho wants, over the next two transfer windows.
Griezmann, Lindelof, Benfica right-back Nelson Semedo, and Monaco midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko. Don't know how much of that is guesswork (Lindelof looks pretty certain, lots of noise about Griezmann), but it makes sense in terms of the positions. |

Bloody hell batdude. The guy has just put in big bolded letters that he has no interest in conversing with you and is ignoring you and the very next post from him you reply to it. No wonder you're getting up people's noses. This fascination you seem to have with replying to absolutely everything needs to stop.
What is wrong with that? I honestly don't mean to get up anyones noses at any time ever, I am only here to talk about football. |

Don't know how much of that is guesswork (Lindelof looks pretty certain, lots of noise about Griezmann), but it makes sense in terms of the positions. I'm guessing the Lindelof thing will happen in January to cover the absence of Bailly. Google says he's Swedish, so the papers will make the connection between him and Ibrahimovic. Tiemoue Bakayoko is a DM, so if either or both of Schneiderlin and Schweinsteiger go in January, he could be their replacement. Or, if not him, another DM. If journalists know they're on their way out you'll be linked with all sorts of defensive midfielders. I wouldn't be surprised if Schneiderlin goes to Everton in January. Maybe you'll get him after that happens, with the money from that transfer. Griezmann and the RB will be summer targets, I'm guessing. Griezmann, definitely, the RB, I'm guessing they'll try in January but will settle for getting him (or another RB) in the summer. |

I can see Everton being in for both Schneiderlin and Memphis, both perhaps on permanent deals, as it does seem neither have a future here under José, I can see both doing well there. |

Don't recall him particularly standing out, to be honest. Probably a good thing for a centre-half. I'd assume that the others will all be summer targets, if they're targets at all. |

At this stage Memphis has looked so out of sorts and off the pace that I'd be surprised if a premier league club come in for him on a big money/high wages offer

They've already got quotes from Ibrahimovic about Lindelof!

I'd assume that the others will all be summer targets, if they're targets at all. We could see players like Young, Schneiderlin, Memphis, and Fellaini, all depart, without seeing players being brought in to replace them properly until the summer, which I think makes sense. |

If he's the one that you could be signing for £36m+ in January, rather than waiting until the summer, then yeah you'll sign him in January. First as cover, but you don't spend that kind of money on someone to simply warm Bailly's spot on the first team. Or, to put it another way, you don't spend Andy Carroll money for someone to warm another kid's spot while he's away. The others, Griezmann's an obvious summer target. The DM could be signed in January if Schneiderlin goes, whether it's him or someone else. I imagine the right back (or, rather, a right back) will be a summer target, with Darmian going the other way. I think both Schneiderlin and Memphis could do well at Everton. Schneiderlin was already good at Southampton, and Memphis might do better without the pressure on him. That's assuming Everton can start playing football again, too.

I thought so! He'll have played with Zlatan in the Euros, so he'll know him.

Either way, someone will be getting less game time, I just don't quite know who at this stage! Nice to see we agree about the pair that Everton are possibly interested in doing well there, Schneiderlin perhaps more than Memphis, but with a fresh start, and a manager who believes in him, then who knows, he might come out of his shell somewhat. Personally I would prefer the lad at Dortmund, Aubamayang, to Griezmann, but that is not to say the latter would not be a very good signing, as I think k he would be. |

He might not want to reply to my posts, which is fair enough, but then why cannot I reply to his?
What is wrong with that? I honestly don't mean to get up anyones noses at any time ever, I am only here to talk about football. TheMunch doesnt want to talk to you, they have made that perfectly clear across a couple of threads but you are STILL responding to his posts to other people. If that isnt the definition of trying to bait another member into a response i dont know what is. As far as i can see that is against the rules of this forum |

I don't want to annoy anyone, all I wish to do on these forums is post with other football fans. |

I fully accept that forum member doesn't want to speak to me, which is sad really, but is there anything wrong in me responding to a post that is posted here? .
If that poster has specifically said they dont want to converse with you. Would you walk around a pub, street, place of work or anywhere in the real world talking to someone that has said they want nothing to do with you? |

If someone says they don't wish to talk to someone that is fine, and a person should be allowed to ask for such things, however a post should still be able to reply to a post, the person doesn't have to reply back if they don't want or wish to. Comparing it with the so called "real world" is not an apt comparison I would say. |

This is not "the real world" so to speak, these are a place where if a person posts a post, then you should expect a reply more often than not.

Ask yourself, what is the point of you replying to a poster that has specifically stated they want nothing to do with you? Please, just take a minute before replying to this and actually ask yourself what are you trying to get out of responding to them? It can only be a response from them which is out and out baiting them to do so. |

Genuine question Batdude, have you been diagnosed with ASD?
Would explain why you post how you do. If that makes sense? |

No I haven't got ASD, I just like talking about football with other football fans, I didn't quite realise that was such a negative thing to want to do.

I was linking it to your lack of self awareness, as in not realizing when you're irritating/annoying other posters. That is all

Hopefully just like any other manager who brings his team to Old Trafford and certainly not any kind of appreciation considering the job he did and the I've been hard done by jibes since he left.
