Let's hope he will be as successful as Valencia.

A great player and like I said in the transfer forum, his contribution this coming season will be bigger than that of Ryan the Rascal!

SAF, give us a Keano

or Scholes type player and let's get the season started..... with De Gea obviously.

Assume nothing !!! they are simply just spoilt idiots with no clue

Maybe he is reading your post, and that's what he actually sees? Stuff about agents not being black, claims that posters aren't racist, but are, but aren't. He also seems to think that all items of clothing are called Blazers. The educated guess bit could be a hidden truth about his lack of an education, resulting in constant guesswork on his part, which also explains why he completely misunderstood your post, twice.

I think that's it.

Is this a reference to the thread you bumped? Because none of those posters have posted in this thread...

Yes that's probably it, he's the only person in the world for and against apartheid and also presumably calls suits 'track-wear' and jeans 'cordroys' and cars wheeled-dragon-vessels.

I like him, he telsl it as he see's it. Which is usually very different to everybody else in the world with a working brain.

15m is a steal for a player of his quality in todays market, 3m a year over 5yrs.

How much does it work out over 25 years scottish?

Or, if he leaves in January, what about that? 15m for 6 months. Risky.

MUFAN79 · 23rd June 2011, 17:13

now now. im just pointing out to the people saying we over payed for him because he had 1yr left of his contract. Regardless of his previous contract situation, its still a financially sound deal.

Some quotes would be nice rather than posting the same thing again and again.

Love the way dippers cling on to the myth about the atmosphere at Anfield, at least we've got the grace to admit ours is often shite, along with pretty much every Premier League ground bar the odd small, recently-promoted club with 20,000 over-excited fans.

And as for...

According to ESPN Radio, the Glazers have informed the NYSE that the fee for Young is $16m-£11m

Saw this on twitter, not sure of it's reliability.

Great price, if true.

Hope so. Find it weird to pay £15M + when he wanted to leave with one year left on his contract.

Great signing this.

Not way off-target from 15m. 11m + add-ons. For the price, a good deal indeed.

Plan M · 23rd June 2011, 17:50

Fantastic signing, very happy with the news.

Nate Dogg · 23rd June 2011, 17:52

Good signing for us, always pleasing to see english players join our club, especially good ones like Rio, Rooney and now Young.

With Young, i would now like to see the like of Morrison, Tunnecliffe, Pogba, Keane added to the squad over the next few months.

Kinda chuffed.

Allforone · 23rd June 2011, 17:57

So the glazers have confirmed to the New York stock exchange that weve paid 11 million for Young, if that's correct that's an absolutely brilliant deal.

Devil may care · 23rd June 2011, 18:01

I'm not going to be disingenuous so I'll just say good luck to him. I wonder why he got a longer contract than Valencia and Anderson.

Errr according to some random person on twitter. Something that not one site has reported. @KM, who tweeted that? Plplease tell me that you didn't quote someone with absolutely no credentials. Also why would the glazers reveal the details when they've never done so before?

Well, it's because Young have a better foot than Valencia, and bigger repertoire when it comes to tricking defenders. Also, Young has had a huge impact on Aston Villa, and his record of assists is better than most in PL. He can also score goals. I don't know how much you've seen him play, but I've been watching Villa pretty closely the last couple of seasons because one of my mates is a Villa supporter, and because they've had quite some interesting talent coming through.

Heck of a deal there considering what similar players have gone for.

Come on then Randall, time to back this statement up with some quotes if you're taking such an issue, or are you just talking shite?

Anyway, very happy with this signing.

Adzzz · 23rd June 2011, 18:08

When will we know his shirt number?

18?

SharkyMcShark · 23rd June 2011, 18:10

I've just realised he has a passing resemblance to Ryan Babel and hope that he goes better than Babel did

Seriously though I'm assuming that this means that Giggs will be central full time from now on (this is like the fourth time over the last 7 odd years that I've thought that so I'm assuming he'll be back out on the left next season), meaning we've got Nani and Valencia for the right, and Young and Park for the left, with only Valencia really able to play on just one side.

Nate Dogg · 23rd June 2011, 18:15

I've just realised he looks like a young Michael Jackson, so we now have Nani and Valencia as MJ lookalikes, Shamon!!

forevrared · 23rd June 2011, 18:16

United aren't a publicly traded company anymore (at least not on the NYSE - I know there's been talk of Hong Kong), so why would the Glazers be telling them how much we've spent?
