It's 2016, the age of email, Skype and iPhones - do you really think people are going to travel for four or five hours just to haggle?

How does the medical get done at such short notice.

I can just see the medical staff hunched over a laptop on Skype watching him parade around the room in his pants.

Medical staff member 'go on, take em off, oooooh'

Other staff stop talking and look at him.

Medical staff member 'sorry, force of habit'.

Dealing with Russians & Nigerians.

What could possibly go wrong? :thumbup:

Well, we'll have the lottery win that we didn't enter for, at the very least. Just send our bank details..

Medicals etc can be done after all text agreements and stuff.

Out of interest why does everyone want this guy so much? His goalscoring record doesn't seem the best. In fact Gayle's record is better so at 22m as opposed to 7m I can't see how that can be value for money

Pace, pace, pace.

Surely if we sign Musa they need to hurry up and get something done. Would he not be pushing it to make it here for 11pm? Or am I being an idiot?

I'm starting to wonder that too. I'm guessing everyone has seen a lot more of Gayle and Remy over the years too. Perhaps that's it. The unknown is more exciting!

 

Can't see this being done so late now. More likely to be an English based player at this late hour surely?!

Believe it or not the rules don't state that he must be standing on the pitch with a replica kit before 11. :D

Any idea what they say about getting a visa? I'm guessing there is a deadline for that. As far as I was aware the 11pm thing is only for the agreement between the club and the personal terms. I'm guessing we can get a visa in the days after, but it is a guess.

I'm not even sure how it all works.

 

I don't think we'll sign anyone now.

Yeah you basically just need to submit a transfer sheet to the FA saying he's agreed to come (meaning you've agreed with his club prior) the details can be ironed out after the deadline.

Musa is the captain of his country and a champions league footballer, there's no chance of him not getting a WP.

He probably wouldn't be registered in time to play tomorrow though.

As long as the paperwork for the transfer is submitted before 11pm, then medicals & work permits can happen tomorrow. 

 

Obv no one we get now will be eligible tomorrow evening, not that I image we'd consider throwing anyone in against Liverpool!

They're flexible enough for it to be in a car park of a club property and for them to be wearing some sort of fleece

Man Utd will not sign anyone, so surely if we put the £23M bid in, he is ours. However, I just know that we will say we tried to get Musa and unveil Gayle. Hope not, but time is running out.

Fancy foreign name. I mean, Dwight Gayle sounds like the bloke who works at your local off license (so does Ahmed Musa to be fair) but the point is football fans these days want an unknown quantity out of Moscow rather than a know quantity from Palace or Chelsea.

Someone said few days ago he'd rather have Eder over Remy even though he admittedly hadn't watched Eder.
