The Manchester United Thread

Im not impacting it on him. As i say in my post he's had one brill season. Last season he suffered together with the rest of the team. So no way of knowing if he is the real deal or a flash in the pan.

Plus, it was not a philosophical question. I genuinely wanted you to tell me ...

Nah his form last year was no where near of the season before, but it would of been hard to compete with, he was extremely good

Pretty much everyone is saying otherwise. I dont know who you are following though.
 
Can we really clear one thing up? Kagawa can and does play left wing, and very well too. It's where plays for Japan, and his best game for us was off the left.

Hehehehe - been using this phrase since forever on the forum waiting for someone to pick on it. Well spot on. I may be kinky mate but only with real women.

JURGEN KLOPP who knows him best of all seems to disagree with you. I mean yes he can and does play there but its not his best position.
 
"UEFA Champions League winner David May is on Sky Sports News Radio for the next hour, talking about Manchester United’s new signing Ander Herrera and other potential deadline day arrivals." - Sky Sports Transfer Ticker.

New signing, sounds like either a typo or the deal's gone through?
 
Any confirmation of a transfer ?? Fellaini or Herrera or both would be great for us.

And yet Jurgen used him there himself. The Japanese team seem to be pretty happy with him on the left too. Its one of his positions, and he can play it very well, thast what matters.
 
Go ask the Italians about Kagawa on the left. They had to sub Maggio (admittedly not known for his defence) half way through their confed game because Shinji was wrecking them.

And things seem to be gathering pace on Herrera and Fellaini. I've never been so excited about signing a player I've never seen play!

1. He only looked sharper vs Swansea. Against LFC he looked totally out of his depth.
2. Kagawa should be used more. And not on the wings but in his real position ie the hole behind the cf. Wellbeck CANNOT play there. His energy which is the one thing he has a lot of means he's better employed on a "free role" on the flanks.
3. Ando is technically good but he's too fat/seems to tire quickly/was never given a run in the team. VALENCIA had one v good season but he's a one legged one trick pony whose trick has been found out.
4. Unfortunately signs are that FLETCHER wont play again. Which for me is a crying shame cos I absolutely loved him.
5. De Rossi is NOT too old. Ive never seen him play badly and even if he gives us two good years (tho he's the kind of player that I can see playing for a long time a la GIGGS) he would be worth it as his class would make a difference especially in Europe. As far as Im concerned we are missing 3 players: a player like Rossi to boss the Mf, a player like FELLAINI to be the link between Rossi and the playmaker and a playmaker (somebody like WILLIAN/ERIKSEN - HERRERA was awesome the year before last but last season he suffered with the rest of ATHLETIC so its impossible to know whether he's a flash in the pan or the real deal).

Anyway a couple of weeks ago I wrote in this thread about my worries about MOYES and our inactivity in the tranny market and was accused of acting like a hysterical **** fan. Our last couple of matches have done nothing to alleviate my fears and if we dont recruit midfielderS it will be a long hard season.

1)Against LFC everyone looked out of their depth and everyone pretty much played **** so you can't just single out one player when the whole team plays ****.
2) I agree Kagawa should be used more, he is brilliant, and this links into your fifth point, Kagawa can play the playmaker so there isn't really much point of signing another one as we already have several.
3) agreed,I said that in the previous post.
4) I haven't heard much about his fitness so that's why I discounted him from the post.
5) I don't see why your reacting that way about Rossi, I never said he played badly and I even expanded my comment about him being "too old" in another post. Yes he is fantastic and I would ****** him from Roma for any fee they wanted, but like I said, there isn't any point in in patching a problem in the midfield for a few years when we should be looking for the future, not the immediate future. Yes he is fantastic but in a few years he will need to be replaced because of his age. simple as. It's moot anyway as we won't be singing him. Highly unlikely. And again same as 1) you his whole club had a bad season last season, you can't judge one player of something when the whole club played the same.

Im sorry but this is not FM13 or **** where you build for the future interminently. This is MAN UTD where we should DEMAND success every year esp in Europe. We therefore need READY MADE players who will come in and deliver sharpish.
 
why is he not going for the one player we need, we went for fabregas, thiago etc. why now that the type of player like them ozil and mata become available does Moyes melt and go for fellaini. He won't add much to the squad thats not already there. We need a creative player along the line of mata. Get your wallet out and just pay the asking price.

Mata just like Ozil won't solve our problem (as much as I love them both and wants to sign them). Fellaini to an extent does.

I don't think he will add much to the squad imho. He is not a United player imo and for the amount they want for him is just stupid. Yes he adds aerial ability, however will he unlock a defense? Doubtful. Our trouble so far has been beating the top class defences and didn't have much of a look in for either the chelsea or liverpool game. Possession was in favour, play was in favour and yet we still couldn't score.
 
If Herrera comes in, can we Scholesy in his coaching kit ASAP?

Hence why we're going for Herrera AND Fellaini.
