First megathread of the Lemmy era!! Get in!!
Assuming posts regarding “that gif” will be insta deleted. Not sure if the curse transfers over but really don’t want try.
Hopefully he slots in nicely and can pefrom at his best under ETH.
Amazing. Yup, 5 mil more. But honestly, that’s not too bad.
Get Onana and Højlund and I’ll unclench. Can’t wait to see Mount though.
now do a striker please
For some reason I’m picturing Bender shouting “DO A FLIP”
Edit: Perfect
So we started the bid at 40m, Chelsea wanted 70m. Both sides end up at 55m with 5m addon. Not exactly sure what the addons conditions are but I heard its difficult to meet. In the event Mason meet those addons conditions, we’d be ecstatic to pay Chelsea that 5m. So really, it feels like the deal is at 55m.
With that being said, how do we feel about this deal?
I feel like its a fair deal. The “real” price is closer to 55m than the reported 60m. To me 55m is the right aMount.
I said when it was first reported we were in for him I wouldn’t want to go above 60. It’s a big spend but I’m pretty happy about it
I was starting to lose hope on this deal but I’m happy to see it done!
Still trying to figure out this new platform - of course reddevils was my top priority. How do I join a community? I searched through the search function for “Manchester united” but cannot figure out how to join

I want to reserve judgment but at least he is an upgrade over Eriksen. In ETH I trust!
I’m not so sure he’s an upgrade over Eriksen. I don’t think Mount’s vision is anywhere near Eriksen.
I would argue the fitness is the biggest differentiating factor between the 2
Happy with this signing, in ETH we trust. Now let’s get a striker and a Casemiro understudy.
Fabrizio’s picture of Mount is something else 😂
Always rated him
Do we still have enough money to get Onana, Kane, Hojlund, and Osimhen?
Joking, of course. Arsenal has really strengthened their squad so I’m hoping we can keep up.
Onana
Martinez/Varane
Mount/Casemiro/McTominay
Antony/Hojlund/Kane/Osimhen/Rashford
Here we gooooo, every game ends 9-6
Yes! Go for Onana and Kane 🫶
I’m more likely to join than Kane. LOL
Finally, Mount has come back to —— Manchester United
PS: Rock reference
I did it…for ten Hag
