I just watched a video on the Full Time Devils Youtube channel where Stephen Howson details a meeting between Matt Judge and a potential signing.
The player in question is a United fan, plays at RB and he had already met with Spurs & Poch for a tour of their new stadium before meeting with us. United's strategy was to invite him to our offices in Mayfair and sit him down in front of Matt Judge who according to his Linkdin profile, works on our "player negotiations (transfers and playing contracts)."
Judge proceeds to ask him WHAT HIS NAME IS and how many appearances he's had... the players agent interrupts him... and... well... I don't think he's coming.
The right back apparently is Thomas Munier, Spurs are after him because Trippier is moving on.
Stephen Howson doesn't seem like much of a bullschitter and judging by the people he's interviewed on his own personal youtube channel, he seems to have a lot of contacts.

Then I read this by James Ducker at the Telegraph... "Bit of Bruno Fernandes detail. His agent, Miguel Pinho, met with #THFC y'day. Fernandes & Lo Celso Spurs' midfield targets. #MUFC, who met Pinho 2 months ago, asked him in past fortnight for some more time as they focus first on signing a RB (Wan-Bissaka)"
So the biggest club in the world doesn't know who they're signing and even if they do we can't handle more than one at a time?
I know it's no secret that our board are a cluster f**k but to actually read and listen to the details of how inept they are makes me want to cry.
We're F**KED

Robbing didn't say that. RDD is pulling his usual rubbish.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Except he did.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not really though did he
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yep
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No he was just giving an example of something Ed could have done to bring in a player, he wasnt literally suggesting it was something he should have done
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He said Ed should have offered Fabregas Sanchez type wages.
He did. It's a fact. Get over it and move on. It's not important.

He didn't. You're not even going to quote him as it will show what you said isn't a fact.

Where did he use the word "should"?

I'm gonna round this up in one comment and if RDD carries on the WUM then fair play
RDD claimed that "Ed cant do anything if a player changes their mind."
Robbing challenged RDD by pointing out that Ed could "make a counter offer and Sell the opportunity more"
Robbing's position here is solely about whether or not it is true that "Ed cant do anything if a player changes their mind."
Hes not interested in whether or not Ed should have done more in a particular example - he's taken issue with the idea that if a player changes their mind, their is nothing you could do to change their mind again. Robbing is interested in this from a purely theoretical perspective - he isn't thinking about what Ed should do, he's talking about what Ed is theoretically capable of doing.
To make this point, Robbing says that if Ed decided to "Offer Sanchez wages" then Fabregas would have decided to join, "Think Fabregas would have turned that down? I don't".
Again, Robbing is not saying Ed *SHOULD* have given Fabregas sanchez wages - he is giving an example of something that Ed *COULD* have done to convince a player to join after they had initially decided not to - dispproving RDD's initial statement that "Ed cant do anything if a player changes their mind".

Fabregas is in a room alone with contracts from Real and United on the table in front of him. He signs the one with Real. What can Ed do about it ?

Sneak into the room.
But Why would Cesc be in a room alone with contracts from United and Real?
