Would people take him on a free? I remember everyone turning their noses up at James Milner on a free before he went to Liverpool. Given how screwed we are with FFP and no european football, would anyone want him at United?

He's lost his pace, hasn't he? I thought the idea was to bin those who have no pace and pursue those who allow us to play a high line with aggressive pressing.

Why not just sign Varane?

It’s a reasonable question and the responses up to now are stupid. It’s a no from me purely because he’s an ex-scouser.

Been let go because he is not good enough anymore.
Would remind me of Varane and Casemiro leaving Real Madrid. We need to move away from signing these type of players.

A club that has been ravaged with injuries all season should definitely go and sign a 33-year-old permacrock. Makes perfect sense that…

Words fail me. This is collective violence on Caf members. I want justice. What the feck.

So - 33 years in August, Playing for Liverpool, Not even a great centreback - and has played 150 league matches in 8 seasons - 24 over the last 2 seasons. Surely you are joking ?

So our fans can be chanting YSB at one of our players? No way.

Hand a new contract to Jonny Evans as well. Sorted.
We actually should do that. As 4th or 5th choice. We all know we'll hit an injury crisis and just be glad to have the numbers.

Hi Mr Ed Woodard hope you are well, you no longer work for the club. I know you must have forgot.
