Every single 'mould' has good and bad signings.
Casemiro | United Player
- Thread starter Tom Van Persie
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?

I mean he was a youngster and was never dislodging Morientes, Raul and R9
Is he going to fix us like Varane was supposed to? 
Who gives a shit if he's 30, we need a fecking midfielder. Cross all fingers and toes.
Glad to know you’ve been on the phone with him. Did he say he was going to sign or not by any chance?
Not a Ten Hag kind of player but him, Pulisic on loan and a RB could be a fairly decent window, as long as the others decide to get their act together and stop feeling sorry for themselves

Don't like this signing. We should sign the next Messi. If we had signed the first Messi when he was a youth player we could have sold him to Real Madrid at his peak for hundreds of millions and then bought the new Messi by now, but noooooo we bought Taibi instead ffs.
I honestly wouldn't care if he was 45 at this point. I can't stomach McFred again
Welcome back Bouhafsi!
This is starting to look good pick up FDJ when we're done and then oust the scum and we're back enjoying football.

Someone asked about Casemiro and he said that he wants to come but a financial agreement needs to be found.
Could Martinez be moulded into a midfielder to play along side him?
I still don't understand how this could be happening, but there are too many positive noises coming from every source to ignore.
Seemed about as likely as us signing Mbappe two days ago. Just absolute pie in the sky.

Yeah but both didn’t want to come, Sanchez wanted to leave after the first training session. Di Maria didn’t want to join us for the money , he joined us as a stop gap for his move 1 year later.
I have no reason to believe Casemiro has to come to United to get a rise in wages. It’s not as if he’s being linked with 500k a week here.
Naturally these players get raises after such moves but if he’s coming to EL United then he just wants to join United is a factor in itself.
Plus there’s the pull of the EPL.
Yeah, but it just makes you look a fool.I have
Walk away. Embarrassing ourselves.
Di Maria came from same league and even the same club so you could argue the same for him. It didn't work that way did it?
Like I said hopefully it will be different this time but when money is the motivation it often doesn't go well.
As soon as you are kicked off the caf newbie
Woah Casemiro, woah!
Morientes was defintely dislogeable, he actually declined badly a year later. And they were playing with two strikers.
The big question: why did we waste 3 months on de Jong when this lad was potentially available ? We threw away 6 points there chasing that Dutch bastard.
Is one of our Hail Mary attempts actually going to work out? I don't even care if we overpay. I'm in full muppet mode at this point. The fact that it could mean the end of McFred is downright orgasmic.
I wonder what Ron has said to him if they’ve been in contact and he is thinking of joining.
South American, used to playing with world class midfielder, moves to sunny Manchester for the money, to join a damaged team, with a new manager, that has lost two on the bounce.
I don't see what could go wrong here?

Don’t pass back to the defenders or goalie?

Wot?
So who is most suitably to partner him in the midfield? Fred or McTominay?
That is the dream. Would almost make the first two games worth it if we came out of it with those two.This is starting to look good
de Jong or Tielemans. But out of those two, Fred.
Green light!! Brilliant signing! An actual CDM! When this first broke, I was convinced it was BS!
I think they're very different types of players. FDJ + Casemiro together would actually be an incredible midfield.
Other than both having legs and both being one of the midfield three, is there any similarities between the two? Casemiro is infinitely more defensively minded than de Jong, despite Barcelona playing him a centre back for a month.
Is this actually happening? Don't make me believe.
