Mou knows his defenders! Let's hope this trend continues.
Victor Lindelöf | Officially signs
- Thread starter Zoo
- Start date
Yeah if they were available. Good luck with that
That's sensible, are you sure this sort of level headedness belongs on the caf?
Why?.....
Just being on the pitch will be a bonus compared to our other defenders.
Fantastic news. He will be an united legend here.
Lindelof isn't a prospect, he's an established first teamer.
Must be my age.That's sensible, are you sure this sort of level headedness belongs on the caf?
Best center back in the world!
And its hillarious that he was voted Best lb in the world cup in previous worldcup
I think it's fair to presume he won't.
I can't say I've seen this guy but Jose must see him as a future worldie, 35m for that level of player is brilliant in this market.
To think that most people didn't rate him at all when he was bought for Benfica's formation team. He used to play as a right-back, then was tested in midfield and afterwards center-back, where he stood. But for a long time almost no one imagine he could be helpful to Benfica, never mind United.
It's quite obvious why. He didn't need to make as many of those because the average squad age was higher.
He's 23 soon, a Sweden international and a regular for Benfica, he's not coming here to play for the U23s, he's coming to be a starter next season. I like the fact that we've gone for a ball playing defender, I do hope Mourinho doesn't try to remove that from his game (we did resort too often to the long ball against decent opposition last season and Mourinho even criticised the defenders for trying to pass it out and not punting it long enough when we played City).
this makes me want to cry it's so true.Players develop, Bonucci played for Bari with 22, look at him today
I didn't say he was coming to play for the formation, C…! If Rojo was fit he would be not near the starters, though.
He is planning to stay here for a while, he was planning to win a couple of trophies in 2-3 years and leave in the other jobs he had.
Of course, that's why I said he was being bought as a prospect. I can hardly see him imposing like Bailly, but I hope I'm wrong.
If he ends up being as good for us as Bailly...
His only competition is Rojo, who will be injured for quite some time. The three of them will play a lot of games this season, prospect or not.
He loves two things, junk food and playstation.
Guess the United social media group will have some thing to say now when hes part of the worlds biggest club

Do not want
Poor Gaitan
Linked by Portuguese press for so many transfer windows, and Lindelof comes and does it in just two windows

Buzzing, a young highly rated defender
Let's hope Lindelof and Baily form a great partnership.

Is he as batshit insane as Bailly?
He will the POTY and the pikachu in Spain.
He'll be able to afford 2 big TVs now!

Ramsey fee agreed
United have agreed a fee with Cardiff City to bring talented teenager Aaron Ramsey to Old Trafford.
The 17-year-old left-sided midfielder has yet to agree personal terms and must also pass a medical before any deal can be completed.
A club spokesperson told ManUtd.com: "Manchester United is delighted to announce it has agreed terms with Cardiff City for the transfer of Aaron Ramsey subject to contract terms being agreed and the player passing a medical."
But the Reds aren't the only club in for the teenager. Cardiff have confirmed that "three top Premier League teams" have made bids, with two given permission to speak to the Wales starlet.
Ramsey, who has attracted plenty of interest from the best clubs in England, is considered one of his country's brightest prospects in recent years and follows in an impressive line of left-sided Welsh players, including Gareth Bale and his idol Ryan Giggs.
He earned rave reviews following his performance in Cardiff's 2-0 FA Cup quarter-final win over Middlesbrough and played in their final defeat to Portsmouth at Wembley
Move aside Edurne
He looks like someone but I can't think who.
Sell Jones and Smalling then sign Keane, I'm sure I read that Keane is the best aerial centre back in the league stats wise.
It's not obvious to me. Most squads in football aren't Ajax or Dortmund. The age of the Real Madrid squad he inherited was normal. It's hardly surprising it's older than ours because we have had a very young squad these last 2 years. My point is he had signings of varied ages at Inter as well. I dare say his signings at Chelsea both terms were hardly restricted to only "27-30yr olds". He's just like most other managers, signing a collection of players of differing ages. Just like LVG in his 2 years here, just like SAF did most of the time here.
Great signing

He won the most aerial duels but, both Jones and Smalling both had better aerial duels percentage.
I meant at the highest level. No wonder we're struggling to offload players when we pay them so much.
He's a very exciting signing in my opinion.
Mourinho has got it right with all 4 signings last summer and I think he's going to do the same this time around.
Lindelöf, probably Morata, who's next?
