The Manchester United Thread

£6m to get Falcao on loan is truly excellent business. I am truly shocked as to why City and Arsenal haven't gotten in on the act. Either the figures being reported are wrong or Woody has just pulled off a huge coup

Probably the same reason Madrid weren't able to get him, he wouldn't be a starter and would have to fight for his spot. At Madrid, with Benzema and maybe Jese. At City, with Dzeko, Aguero and maybe Jovetic. At Chelsea, with Costa, Drogba and maybe Remy. As for Arsenal, I think Wenger didn't want to pay those kinds of wages.
 
Who was that guy on O United was interested in? Some Scandinavian name, Ogengaarden or something like that.

Martin Odegaard, 15 year old attacking midfielder. Quite a prospect actually, but Liverpool were also rumoured to be in for him..

He would easily be a starter at any of those clubs with the exception of perhaps City. Falcao is a genuinely world-class player. Excited to finally see him in the EPL

Odegaard, hot property, in Norway national team playing well at age of 15 or is it 16.. can't remember.
 
Falcao, RVP, Rooney, Mata, Di Maria and Januzaj. No CL to worry about either. I'm genuinely scared

Chelsea? No way, Costa wouldn't make the dressing room any happier. Madrid is more puzzling considering the amount of shots Benzema misses to those he converts, but w/e. City, would cause problems in Dressing Room with all those players around./.
 
Speaking of which, I sincerely hope Januzaj gets games. I'd absolutely hate to see him as a bit-part player this season.

Costa would likely play a supporting role as he did at Atletico when Falcao was there. In short, Falcao would start for every club in the world with the exception of 1-2. Class signing

I agree, but in another ways I disagree... we have sacrificed points in opening games because we've had to field players in wrong positions and start players like Cleverley.

10 injuries is not a normal situation.

Actually, if we still do ****, the main blame will still come on transfer business as to how Falcao was got over a defender/defensive midfielder. >_>

Dojo is a defender. Blind is a defender/midfield. Herrera is a mid. Di maria can count as a mid too. I agree we need another, but we have enough to last till January if the strootman rumours are true.
 
Exciting stuff honestly. Completely shat over the specialist and Pelligerini. I bet City are desperately looking at the small print in Negredo's deal
 
We should just go for Moutinho or Kondogbia.. Monaco apparently in trouble cos owner got fleeced in court.
 
Absolutely no idea what Wenger is doing. He tried to hijack Remy's deal and failed hilariously. He let Falcao slip through his fingers. Yaya Sanogo it is!

I know everyone is gung-ho about Strootman, but I personally don't see it happening.. Roma won't really want to let go of him at all, and he has a long time left on his contract, also, don't think he'll put in a transfer request.. That being said, it'd be brilliant if Strootman happens in January..

He got completely shafted over by his wife. Divorce settlement is apparently in the billions. Poor guy
