VC I'd say if you asked 100 people on here who "the Twitter guy" is 98% would say Arab.
Arab and yourself being the 2%
I ain't criticising here by the way, I like Arab's contribution to this site and always have, from ITK updates to the press conference sound-bites we get; mostly from Twitter

I've never ever claimed to be ITK either, that's a load of balls. Robb you have some sort of problem with not accepting differing opinions on certain matters. You're always on the defensive with the posters that aren't happy we're spending £100m on a footballer.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not at all my good man. But its a fact that the vast majority of your articles are about tweets and your intention is to make us seem that you want us to feel that you got the story first. Hence why your articles are put up so quickly after the tweet is posted.
Again, I genuinely don't have an issue with that and I'm glad you do those and I don't have an issue with you having a problem with the fee. But I feel you gave up too quickly with the Pogba saga. There's a very high chance he's signing but at the slightest bit of trouble you say things like 'I told you a month ago this would happen'.
I'm with Robb in getting excited about a really good player in but that has been tempered by the way is has seemingly dragged out.
I'm sure transfers took this long to conclude in the past as well but you wouldn't get an update every second just a story in the paper every day.
I've no problem with the articles on here as at least it's got debate going during a quiet period. It's the Twitter trolls that get me, and worse still I actually trolled myself and plenty believed me, which is why I don't believe anything on there now unless it's from a 100% verifiable source.
In any case roll on Sunday so that we can see the guys in a serious (ish) game.
The Mirror story writes itself though doesn't it? It was pretty obvious someone would use that angle.

Does anyone know how many of the players who played in the Euro final are back from holiday if any at all?
Verratti has just a deal with PSG I see
Read this from him though -
Verratti told Le Parisien: “I’m flattered that a great team like Real Madrid are interested in me, but I’ve made the decision of winning with Paris. I want to win something important here before I get tired or that the club no longer want me.”
He wants to win something important before he leaves??? So he's basically admitting the French Ligue is toss

No he didn't Robb. Arab was around long before he kept us abreast of transfer sagas.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Over the past few years he made his name as a twitter guy. Nothing wrong with that. But I feel he gave up too quickly with this Pogba thing. Like he's jaded with the type of story that he's drip fed to us over the years

Robb, he's been around far longer than his twitter days. If anything, Arab comes in quite handy for info based on reliable-ish sources.
Over the past few years he made his name as a twitter guy.

Over the past two years Robb.
Arab has been on here a lot longer than that. He made his name simply as Arab Manc.
We should sign Verratti instead.
Yeah maybe made his name is too general.
He's most known across the board as the Twitter guy, but he was posting here a lot before Twitter

Last week you were proclaiming it was a done deal and would be announced within 48 hours.

Not really a pattern. The guy has pretty much admitted over social media and a marketing campaign that he's joining. I know you don't trust anything that isn't printed in 'old guys who don't know what social media is monthly' magazine but there are loads of very obvious signs he's coming to united

Whether it's Pogba or not I hope the club know the situation so we can move onto alternatives if the move does fall through. I'm pretty confident we will get him but if not then we still need a quality CM to come in.
