[Mister Ed]

So this official ?

And what does pavilhao mean ?

 

[Ole's_toe_poke]

Welcome.

The big question is how well he can do at CB having primarily been a leftback.

 

[bosnian_red]

Wouldn't start this thread until United themselves tweet it...

 

[Sixpence]

Until we confirm it, it ain't official.

 

[Kag]

Welcome.

The big question is how well he can do at CB having primarily been a leftback.

He played at centre back all last season?

 

[KiD MoYeS]

It's definitely official.

Happy with the signing, really feel he can become a fan favourite. Appears to be quite the nutter.

 

[Cooksen]

One down three to go.

Good luck marcos,

 

[caid]

Welcome.

He's been playing as a cb for sporting for 2 seasons apparently so ... fine?

 

[herokiller84]

Get stuck in you nutcase.

Welcome to Manchester.

 

[Sammyjunn]

So this official ?

And what does pavilhao mean ?

Pavillion.

 

[Blue always red]

Is he better than Buttner?

 

[Mister Ed]

Pavillion.

Ok and what does Pavillion mean ? (with respect to a transfer being announced)

 

[charleysurf]

I think he'll be a fan favourite. Although there will be mistakes I'm sure.

 

[Sammyjunn]

Ok and what does Pavillion mean ? (with respect to a transfer being announced)

Just pavillion but they will use 9 million of their received fee and build one with it or something like that.

 

[Drifter]

Not that excited about this signing,but welcome to OT i guess.

 

[Spielmacher]

Ok and what does Pavillion mean ? (with respect to a transfer being announced)

A Sporting sports-crentre for all their other sports tiers apart from football.

 

[Zoo]

Marcos Rojo Rabona clearance. Argentina vs Bosnia…:

 

[DWelbz19]

Welcome, Rojo.

 

[Olly Gunnar Solskjær]

Ok and what does Pavillion mean ? (with respect to a transfer being announced)

They're saying they'll use €9m of the money on their Pavilion.

The sale of Marcos Rojo for Man.Utd, 9M € will go to the construction of our Pavilion

 

[Mister Ed]

Just pavillion but they will use 9 million of their received fee and build one with it or something like that.

Ah ok, so they will use the 9 million for the construction of a pavillion. Now i get it

 

[Invictus]

Ok and what does Pavillion mean ? (with respect to a transfer being announced)

They will build a pavilion in the stadium.

Hopefully he will be a good signing, I have a feeling the fans will love him for his character.

 

[Señor]

What number will he wear? 5 or 15?

 

[kotha]

Lets hope he has a great career here at United!!

 

[Raw]

Manchester is Rojo

 

[Escobar]

A versatile defender is what we needed, let's hope he develops well.

Now let's sort out our midfield and we're good to go

 

[Devil may care]

I'm cautiously optimistic about this guy, I think he'll add some fire and personality to us on the pitch. Welcome Marcos, now time for the shirt pic!

Yea i know what a pavillion is, but I thought the tweet said the deal was done subject to them building a pavillion. I had no idea what to make of it, but now I get it

 

[Jev]

Great deal for Sporting. If we're actually paying all of Nani's wages, then we're idiots. Would have been much better to pay them a few more million and having him as an option/selling him later in the window.

We needed a defender, though, any defender. I don't know much about this guy but expect him to be around the same level as the ones we have, so a bit underwhelmed at that price. Now for the next one, please.

 

[Mister Ed]

Welcome Rojo !

 

[Sixpence]

Is he better than Buttner?

I would have liked to have seen a tear up between them that's for sure.

 

[Scrumpet]

Why don't we have a pavilion?

 

[scorgasm]

Best of luck to him, hope it proves a success.

Atleast we got rid of him for a year.

 

[Cina]

Excellent. Very good signing.

Wish we could build some pavilions though, stoopid Ed.

 

[Jev]

How is that a good thing when we're paying all of his wages? It's another lousy deal negotiated by Woodward, whichever way you put it. Hopefully Rojo will make us forget that.

[Escobar]

I wonder what we had to pay for him and how it works with Nani

 

[Sly]

Excellent. Very good signing.

Wish we could build some pavilions though, stoopid Ed.

You would have to be a more ecletic club. We are the second most ecletic club in Europe after Barcelona. Our athletes have won olympic medals. Just wish football also won a bit more. I guess MarcosDeto will be delighted with another argie. Time for him to defend him now. I´m relieved of my duties
