Can Di Maria speak English ?
I presume that was Danny Mills. People were talking about it in the matchday thread. He's an idiot, don't take any notice.We need somebody other than Welbeck with genuine pace. I was watching the American broadcast, you know because I'm from America (sue me), and I'm not sure who, but one of the announcers was saying that while Di Maria is a great player we needed to sign somebody with genuine pace. I kind of wanted to bang my head against the wall after hearing him say that.
I really hope we don't sell Welbeck since I think he's a better partner for both RVP and Rooney than either of them are for each other. I also think he's one of the few genuinely pacy and athletic players we have, who while not being a great natural goal scorer is fantastic in build up play and I think can be a good option through the middle in 3-5-2 or as a wide player in 4-3-3.
He wasn't anywhere close to either Lingard or Januzaj last year in pre season. And yes maybe it's too soon, but let's also not forget that he got sent out on loan to an awful Cardiff side who got relegated and couldn't make the starting 11.I don't mean this in a dickish way but i think we shouldn't judge Zaha too harshly until he actually plays a few games for us. Lets not forget he was arguably our best player in pre-season last year and then never got a look in when the season started.
Many people on this forum thought he was one of our best players in that pre-season, some even thinking he was our best player.He wasn't anywhere close to either Lingard or Januzaj last year in pre season.

Oh myCan Di Maria speak English ?
So you want United to be like Kevin Keegan's Newcastle or last season's Liverpool. That style of play is fun but it's not sustainable, it's not a winning style. Defending is important whether you like it or not.Completely agree with you. I don't give a shit if we concede 3 goals. As long as we score 4!

Seems to have gone a bit quiet, though I expect things will be in full force tomorrow.
Is this your new home after your ban from a certain thread? Don't worry, we're keeping it warm for you
It's a bit like @Cina and his parents house. He still calls it "home" but the authorities have told him he's not allowed within 500 meters of it.Is this your new home after your ban from a certain thread? Don't worry, we're keeping it warm for you

Fletcher looked like Xavi in pre season. Let it sink inI don't mean this in a dickish way but i think we shouldn't judge Zaha too harshly until he actually plays a few games for us.

XabiAlonso: Thanks for all noodle! I wish you the best, even in the Man. Utd never forget the zigzag extra time in Lisbon.
Times have changed, I am now running Redcafe alongside Weaste. Relevated, Sixpence and Successful are our senior admins.I thought you were just a kiddy Mod?
I agree with him. Di Maria is world class but we have more pressing issues.
It's baffling.How anyone can watch today's game and not think getting a player like Di Maria in is just as important as any other position is beyond me.
All issues need to resolved - pace, defending, midfield etc - solving one doesn't mean it prevents us from solving another.I agree with him. Di Maria is world class but we have more pressing issues.
If the window closes without us adding anyone else he may have a point, but I'm still not sure what top drawer CM options are open to us.
Exactly.How anyone can watch today's game and not think getting a player like Di Maria in is just as important as any other position is beyond me.
I'm amazed there's so many people who think our wings aren't/weren't an issue. Valencia and Young, along with Januzaj are our only options out wide, and we have absolutely no pace in the attack or somebody who can dribble past players and run with the ball. No wonder Mata/Rooney/Van Persie can't work, there's nobody there to stretch the opposition.How anyone can watch today's game and not think getting a player like Di Maria in is just as important as any other position is beyond me.
I'm sorry but in two games so far, against two of the weaker sides in the league, our midfield has been completely over ran. That needs sorted ASAP.Ozil has better close control and is a better passer than Di Maria. But the latter is much quicker, much fitter, has c
