  1. Who wants Rooney gone and who wants him to stay

    He's too much of a divisive player for us to keep him on now imo. If he stays for £300k pw, he has to play but isn't consistent enough and consequently has fans vilifying him and others championing him. It's gone on too long. We need fresh blood, regardless of the fact that we might not be...
  2. BBC: United hold talks with Mourinho

    Guaranteed that won't save him. The only thing which will save him will be Wudwud putting his neck on the line and guaranteeing we'll be successful with him in charge and will make £ with him in place. Simple thing is that an FA cup or League trophy does nothing for our bank ballance so won't be...
  3. Jose Mourinho choice: Man Utd vs R.Madrid

    Personally i think it'll be Utd, but Mendes is certainly playing a game with us. I find it very interesting that the same evening Mendes comes out and says that there is no contact, the Madrid radio stations begin their onslaught of Jose to Real guff. If you think about it, given the situation...
  4. Woody Review

    Problem is that i see huge similarities between this window and that one under Moyes. At best we have been using Pedro as a smokescreen while we do other business for a better player, at worst, we've been greedy and thought that no one would even look at Pedro while we tried to save some £...
  5. Nicolas Otamendi | City Player

    I can't help but think that the only reason we're not going for Otamendi, is because he's not left footed. I think LVG wants a leftie playing beside Smalling, which is why Otamendi's not getting a look in but was in the january transfer window, when no right footed player was holding down the...
  6. Surprise at Blind playing well at centre half

    Would tend to agree, but then i remember that was basically everyone's view when he played LB. All i heard was how Navas, Sterling, Willian, Townsend would tear him to shreds because he's slow, only to end up with them all in his pocket. Its hard to see him as a CB, when we've been use to...
  7. We Miss Fellaini

    Great post. I got kicked when i said similar 2 years ago. He offers something completely different, which is tbh something that we desperately need right now. Its not that we're not trying to create chances, but we are so obvious in our play currently, that teams find it reasonably easy to play...
  8. De Gea Contract Situation

    LVG saying what he said gains nothing for MUFC but DDG "saying" what he said does gain something for himself and Real. So personally, i'm with LVG on this one. I have to say that LVG is in a lose lose situation, if he puts DDG in regardless of whether or not DDG feels ready and he plays...
  9. Ángel Di María | Transferred to PSG

    I'm very disappointed in ADM. He's making a mug of MUFC when he's been handsomely rewarded to play here and the fans haven't ever got on his back. I just don't understand why he couldn't come out and say that he wants to leave because his wife and family etc aren't happy being in Manchester...
  10. Ángel Di María | Transferred to PSG

    I have always been reasonably pragmatic about these kind of things. While i'd obviously love to keep ADM (assuming we were reasonably confident he'd find some of him best for again) i'm of the opinion that any player who's not got the bottle to fight for their place or is in a position to...
  11. Ángel Di María | Transferred to PSG

    I see what you're saying, but i think WC players wouldn't even consider that tbh. They'll be so confident in their own abilities, they'll not give the fact that ADM was here for only 12 months a second thought. I can almost guarantee that we won't be selling ADM against his will too. Fact of...
  12. The Manager's Press Conference | 21 July 3:30am BST

    I completely agree, but i wonder if he's meaning for the time being. Darmian will need time to adapt to the team and hopefully learn more of the language. I'd be happy just sticking with Valencia until LVG is happy with Darmian. I have no doubt that he'll make that position his own as soon as he...
  13. LvG and his ruthless streak

    I completely agree with this. Keeping ADM to me seems a bigger risk than selling him. He wasn't all bad last season, but he was nowhere near to the standard which we need/paid for. If we keep him and he performs the same way, we'll end up taking a big bath on him. I realise that if we decide...
  14. Ángel Di María | Transferred to PSG

    Seeing as he came out and said that he was staying last month, i don't think he'll come out and say it again. That said, i just wrote on the transfer page though, that i wouldn't be absolutely gutted if he left, just simply because his best position in MF is packed full of talent now, who may...
  15. Di Maria replacement if he decides to leave

    I couldn't agree more. ADM is a superb player, who has tremendous ability but he ain't no winger. Just because he's rapid doesn't me he should/can play on the wing. I know thats where he started out but its not why he's worth £60m. Like everyone on here, i don't think we should sell him, as i...
