Manchester United are set to reject any offer from Arsenal for Phil Jones, because Jose Mourinho doesn’t want to do business with Arsene Wenger, according to the London Evening Standard.

Arsenal are also reportedly interested in Jones, as their hunt for a centre-back goes on.

From Sky. would we want him anyway?

Why would he do business with us?

Even Wenger had to start to think twice before selling his players to premier league "rivals"

Wenger has already signed the players he actually wanted to sign. The midfielder we don't need, the striker who can't get a work permit and the poor kid from the lower leagues who has been baptised in fire as another shining example of Wenger's mythical skills at protecting and progressing young talent. Wenger didn't hesitate on Xhaka because he's the final and ultimate piece in the tippy, tappy jigsaw. The ultimate tip/ tap master - he's better than that but Wenger will constrain and eventually destroy him. We actually underbid for Holding, quite astonishing really and very revealing. I assume the Japanese kid is all about shirt sales.

Lacazette and Mustaphi and Messi, Ronaldo and Greizmann/ Lewandowski, these are all a mix of media bullshit and Wenger and the board trying to hold the line and beat back the raging fans until the transfer window closes. We do it a lot. Underbid and then string it. Saves us having to chase any real targets. Saves the money. Keeps Stan in ranches.

Nice find Herb, it's a good article and is very balanced IMO. Of course in an ideal world we would all sit here and lap up what Gazidis is telling us and accept that we have a owner that is as stingy as Scrooge.

Without wanting to go over old ground or repeat myself, we all know we have a Manager who simply isn't doing enough with the resources he has at his disposal, let's get rid of him first and see where we go from there?
