How we all feel right now.
Edinson Cavani - SIGNED for United

If we'd sorted out the other areas we needed to strengthen then adding Cavani for depth might have been fine.
In the circumstances we're currently in it stinks of another botched transfer window. Ugh.

Jesus I was hoping this was a piss take.
Gash signing

If we were going to make a punt signing we should have got Bale.
Cavani needs chances and we aren't exactly a team who cuts the opposition open.

He should be a better backup than Ighalo but he hasn’t played in months and has had no pre season. How long before he’s even in shape to play?

He scored 4 last season
It´s safe to say he´s had his share of injuries the last couple of seasons, but I see this as an upgrade on Ighalo, and it´s free.
Wayne Rooney could play for Liverpool then really?
What happened to Ole's "focus on youth" strategy?
Think he will do well and much prefer him to Ighalo
4 of the purest goals you have ever seen!
I have a feeling we might see him on the right,he played there for years during their Zlatan days
Don’t post facts like that. This is the Caf. He used to be good ergo he’s still good.
He won the lottery. Who else but United would've given him one last massive contract?
No issue with this one, we need more experience up front and Ighalo leaves in Jan. If Martial gets injured we don’t have to put too much pressure on Greenwood to play through the middle so gives us so much needed rotation options.
Not sure why people are complaining so much, yes it might not have been planned all summer, but as long as his attitude is right I think it’s a great buy.

Who would people of signed for up front in this window bearing in mind we are still trying to sign a Winger on a permanent deal in this window out of interest?
Big name signing to up the price of the shares, only thing this is, words can't describe how much i hate this regime. it's not "free" he'll be on Sanchez type wages no doubt.
Why what's the fecking point? We have players better than him on the right
Quite the meltdown going on right now when the window hasn't closed yet...
Beat me to it.
If you want to know why we sign him, go watch Ighalo struggles against championship team and Brighton 2nd tier team. If he can’t handle that then he can’t handle Champions League. I Don’t like the idea of signing old, injury prone and likely to be high wages but we need to upgrade Ighalo. Cavani at least offers something different that none of our attackers offer, physical, aerial duel and plan B.
What is wrong with some of you? He's coming to replace Ighalo as a backup striker, and if he's fit, he's a huge upgrade on Ighalo. You guys are acting like he's coming in to be an automatic starter here, when in reality, he's a depth signing. He makes the squad better, provided he's fit.
Bet him and his agent are laughing their bollocks off.
That's my point; he's not going to get any fitter as he gets older. Can't imagine him signing for a pay as you play deal or heavily incentivised with bonuses.
He's better than Ighalo but that's setting the bar super low. To me it just screams desperation and everything we're meant to have moved past.
Youth, courage, success.
you realise Carragher was an Everton supporter?
I’m not talking about players who have become club legends and then going to rivals. That rarely happens - and is completely different to what we are talking about.
We've been buying and playing a lot of incredibly young players so..nothing has happened to that strategy.
Yeah,still time to move him on.
Oh come on wind it in. Screams panic buy
Maybe some of us have moved on from panic induced short-term buys.
Shh, we never signed 23 y/o VDB remember?
It’s getting him on the pitch, mate. It’s the Jack Wilshere Paradox. You’re not better than me, if you can’t stay fit.
didn’t he want to go to City?
Ole was a Liverpool fan, carragher an Everton fan, O’Shea a Liverpool fan, Bale an Arsenal fan.
We haven't technically bought him...
Oh my god.... Please no. This is so fecking depressing. Why him? I'd rather we sign no one than this guy.
I was gonna post that
Not everyone is like Smith that you seem to suggest. Some could and some could not join a team they hate. I have a feeling Haaland will never wear the United shirt.
