Still find it hard to believe we've signed Sancho and Varane, two world class players, inside a single window.

Just wow.

Don't think we ever had this good a window post SAF to be honest - probably with SAF as well on paper, it genuinely is two world class players! Really really have to push City this year.

He is literally the perfect partner for Maguire! We have done so well to get him in. What a signing :drool:

Welcome to United.

I hope he's better than I think. In any case, he should probably have some time to get used to the league. But we can well expect that habituation to happen quickly. After all, he is an experienced player with a great resume.

Welcome to Manchester United Raphael Varane, an incredible signing in what's already a fantastic transfer window for us. :drool:

I never thought I'd see the day, I was convinced it was another Ramos saga.

Another fantastic signing and for a bargain fee, here's hoping he adapts to the league quickly!

For the first time since that damn final in Rome, we have a solid centreback pairing.

Get in!! I've always wanted to see him in red and If he could recapture his form from the last WC that will be exquisite!

Wan Bissaka Varane Maguire Shaw​

What a back line. We genuinely have the best squad and starting 11 since the 06-09 team. Just need to get the midfield balanced style wise to the rest of the team, need better passing range from them, less mistakes and carelessness and just more positionally sound to give us the foundation for the rest.

I think you all need to calm down, not to be a downer or anything but I was just on Bluemoon and they reckon Varane is shit :(

Yeah, I checked an Arsenal forum, and apparently we're paying him £5m a week, and he isn't as good as Ben White anyway. Worried we've been mugged off :(

Need two if he goes or else we won't be any better off in midfield regardless if what people want to pretend.

He didn't play in the midfield much in the 2nd half of last season anyway. His best form for United came either in Brunos position or now Sancho's role... so I don't think he's needed for much. He never impressed much from deeper as a prolonged spell like he did at 10 or on the left.

Pogba staying or leaving IMO won't make much of a difference to our success this season. He's injured far too much anyway. Get a squad that wants to be here long term and that suit each other (like everyone apart from him right now).
