The Manchester United Thread

money is an issue. Yes we may have a lot to spend like last summer, Lvg has his targets and won't just sign anyone.

Ok, so we take Hummels as an example, he's reportedly a main target, didn't happen last summer and no sign of anything concrete in January, so LVG waits till the summer, he still doesn't come. Then you realised you wasted time chasing a target that was always unlikely.

Sure he has priorities, but have to be flexible and adapt to the situation, I'd say us signing players this month was crucial in order to aid us to top 4, right now I think we may not make it as we're lacking.
 
No point in spunking money away

No one was complaining last summer though and would you say the same if we miss out on top 4 come the end of season? If we miss out on top 4 again it will have an impact in some way no matter how we sugarcoat it.
 
have to say kdb is having 1 **** of a game for wolfsburg

Funny you mention it, everyone who doesn't really have a clue just shouts NEUER IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD. I think De Gea would of saved at least 2/3 of them 4 goals.

we did not get hummels in the summer due to injury. And there have been plenty of good sources say he will leave in the summer. And we have more than just hummels as our cb targets. We still have a good enough squad to get top 4 without wasting money on anyone.

We did not ***** anything last summer we signed players in positions we needed.

If the right player is available then by all means go and get him, but you mention Chelsea and city let's be fair Cuadrado is a straight replacement for schurlle and Salah which I personally do not think Cuadrado is a better player than Shirley despite his **** form this year. City got bony but is he that much of an upgrade on what they have? Will never play in front of aguero and although I rate him a better player than both dzeko and jovetic I am not pellegrini will see it that way. I've lost my point now apologies on tramadol for broken ribs head is spinning

Yeh but we still paid a shed load, Di Maria can be great and all but he isn't a £60m player, we were just desperate and out of CL so Real Madrid had a really strong stance which meant they could tell us to pay a premium price.. this is what I'm saying, being out of the CL will effect us in some way, if it happens.

But my point originally is that player like Cuadrado would of been worth spending on, he's flexible offers quality in positions we lack badly.

I agree mate we will have to over pay but we do anyways :-( di Maria we defo over paid, but can't compare with signing di Maria and cuadrado.

Ha. no worries, but the point I was making is that if they need to strengthen to replace or whatever they do so without question, I think player like Cuadrado would of been more than useful for us. So would De Bruyne, but probably just rumour.

I would rather wait and sign a proper FB and a better winger. He has been poor this season and would be a waste of money for a bench player.

Well I can't see us sticking with 4 at the back for long considering our lack of fullbacks so when we go back to 3-5-2 he'd be in the team easily as a wingback.

But even in 4 at the back formation I think he'd offer more threat from out wide compared to what we have mostly.
 
Also on cuadrado we would of had to pay more than Chelsea as they are getting salah in exchange. That's why they are paying less than the release clause
 
Bayern destroyed by Kev De Bruyne, get him in LVG.

You're not stacked enough upfront?

I'm not saying you shouldn't go for him in the summer, but I definitely wouldn't be writing Mata off so quickly.

Ginger Kev >>>>> Ronney in the number 10, mata, fellaini and herrera.

Go to a expansive 4231 sign a proper fullback,cb, cm and winger and sod off one or both rvp and falcao and some more deadwood, harsh but whatever aha.
