*5 times Chelsea stole United players* With Alvaro Morata seemingly closer to Old Trafford, there are rumours and fears that Chelsea could step in and poach an almost-United player. Again *Eden Hazard* Before joining Chelsea from Lille in 2012, Hazard had a meeting with Sir Alex Ferguson, desperate to bring the Belgian to Old Trafford. Then Roman Abramovich got involved. ''I spoke with Abramovich, he's very simple and loves football. There was a struggle between Chelsea and United, but to me Chelsea has the best project.'' *Arjen Robben* The Dutch winger agreed to move from PSV to United back in 2004. Robben and his father were shown around Old Trafford. They were given assurances about the number of games he'd play. Until. ''My meeting with Sir Alex Ferguson went very well and I was ready to sign. But I was convinced by Ranieri and Kenyon – they told me the whole Chelsea story and it appealed to me. I wasn't disappointed to miss out on United as in football things happen very fast.'' *Pedro* It was the point at which many United fans gave up on Ed Woodward. In August 2015, he flew out to Barcelona to complete a deal for Pedro. United supporters excitedly awaited the World Cup winner. He never arrived. Again, Chelsea swooped in, disrupting the deal. Pedro's agent claimed United "fell asleep" during negotiations, and Pedro himself confirmed as much at his farewell press conference."I had offers from other English clubs - United, City, but Chelsea were the club that more rapidly resolved my transfer and the one that showed more interest in me." *Didier Drogba* For United fans, Drogba is perhaps the most surprising - and most heartbreaking - of all the names on this list, purely because of the difference he would have made to their side in the mid 00s. ''We went to check him out at Marseille, but the club wanted £25million and Chelsea moved in for the kill before we had made up our minds,'' wrote Sir Alex Fergusson. *John Obi Mikel* The most infamous case of Chelsea nabbing a United player; Mikel did not only agree to join The Red Devils - he actually signed a contract. Back in a time the Nigerian was one of Europe's hottest properties; United agreed a £4m deal with Norwegian club Lyn to sign the 19 year-old midfielder. They even held a press conference. Some time later - after a very messy, drawn out process than involved a High Court claim - Chelsea paid £12m to their domestic rivals, plus the original £4m to Lyn to have the player.

Danhumprey: Sincerely, i understand his, and the plight of other Muslims who have to deal with being construed as terrorists because of few elements who do not entirely define the religion. Its like being black in America. That being said, being a Muslim does not excuse aggressive uncouth comments, if anything, his aggression promotes the rhetoric about Islam. |

Oasis007: Well, I'm not as flexible as many people because I don't seem to have middle ground for a lot of things. You're either good or not! And I don't see any stupid passion from Herrera other than him mouthing off at the officials and screaming at his team mate as if he's some shite when he's just a common hustler who should be decked below for being so stupid and making the build up play monotonously boring. Some people talked about our boring display under Van gaal but do they stop to think that Herrera was the major reason we were making non-progressive 5 yard passes all over the place because Lawd knows that the likes of Rooney and Carrick don't do that shite despite their sluggishness and Rooney's lack of technique in the midfield. Heck! we saw him repeating the same useless shite in our 2-0 loss against Arsenal. Even Oshea gave us better shite than this. Herrera had better thank God for Pogba in his life. I don't see what he offers that can't be replaced! It's not about screaming your head off on the pitch that makes you a leader.. |

Oasis007: After they must have dealt with you, abi? ![]() I'm just saying the truth as it is. I don't see what he offers that can't be replaced. I would rather have a quality player in the CDM role. He should concentrate being a good no 8/box-box or scram. And screaming off one's head isn't a leadership quality. |

Diademk07: We all know he can be replaced based on quality but we won't agree b'cos he's a fans favourite!! You might see a player who's just screaming on the pitch but i see a true red devil, someone who has the club at heart, always trying so hard to produce his best performance for the team..... i don't watch all united games but from the amount i've watched, Herrera has proven his loyalty!!!!... It's kinda funny that we're getting such loyalty from a spanish player, i hope he wears the armband next season ![]() Kindly give up the hate, Bro. ![]() |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Diademk07: 8:07pm On Jun 19, 2017 |
GloryIsaac: I already stated the reason I dislike him. Because he's so manipulative like many spanish players out there. Can give'em but can't take it to save his life and would roll like sack of shite on the ground.. The annoying part is seeing him mouthing off at the referee when he's in the wrong. I can't just accept such behaviour even if he was my blood. And there's nothing like him being loyal. Is he not the same player who acted treacherous towards the Bilbao fans? Abegi! He knows he's no better than Gomes if he Bleep off to Barca. I wouldn't be surprised if it is his agent stirring up shite to make us cough up huge dough for him even when he aint that. Those spanish players are kind of sleazy, I don't trust most of them. |

Funlord2: It's like you really don't know how crazy this trolling has driven some united fans. Go red Cafe go see fans wey dey get high BP and sleepless night over a 32 year old. They don't even care he is getting old, they just want him back. All this using united to settle personal or club problems elsewhere is just not cool. Players and the press have turned us to contact negotiation tactics for players and now we are being used to solve tax issues wey we nor hear of till wind blow fowl yanch. Anyway he should just know that he either ends in career in Spain or forget about returning to England after this summer because twice beaten, hundred times shy. I am sure PSG will pay for him well into his late 30's. We won't do a one season approach again. |
