The Manchester United Thread

Looks like it would be Martial vs Smalling when France play against England. Will be interesting battle, backing Smalling to come out on top.
 
Another reminder for those who continue to underrate/underestimate him ...

... for us (PLEASE!) or any other "elite" team:

Lukaku's next Premier League goal will be his 50th, having started just 94 times. Not bad considering 50 of those starts came before he turned 21. And at Everton FFS!!!!!

Chelsea were mad to get rid of him. Especially when they had such a good system with drogba. Lukaku seemed the perfect replacement. Everton will find it hard to keep him for much longer
 
What do you guys think of maybe try Depay in the #10 role behind Martial and Lingard and Mata on the wings? I think that could be interesting..

Well, as far as I remember LVG tried Depay as a #10 earlier the season but didn't really work out well. Plus don't forget that LVG will never bench Rooney, so even if your plan sounds exciting, would never happen.

He is ambitious and will leave Everton, will take lot of money to buy him but he is worth it IMO. He is a very good goal scorer and very young too. Only issue is we have Martial who is better suited to playing as #9.

Already has a £45 million price tag and PSG are already showing interest

Once more the ball is in our court. BUT-and this is the kicker-his agent (like most agents) has been stupid, and let slip that Martinez would be willing to let him go at the right price for the club. So well played noob agent /facepalm

We havent seen Martial on the IF position with a more effective battering ram type cf than Rooney tho ...

Btw last time I mentioned him as a brill option for us upfront I got slaughtered here ...
 
Ive been thinking out of the box regarding transfer targets recently. Does anybody think Mirallas might be worth a gamble? He's obviously unsettled at Everton but we know he can play very well when given games and on form. Might offer a bit more pace and quality going forward and is proven in the Premier League. If we could get him for around £10m I dont think it would be a bad deal and certainly worth a gamble

When Moyes joined United, I posted that he was the one player I want ahead of everyone at United. He was excellent player but for some reason last 18 months were not his best and also looks he has poor attitude. Nothing to back up, just gut feeling.

saying that I would love to sign Mane.

Yeh I'd like Mane aswell but were probably talking £20m plus for him. Probably close to £30m with the way the market is now. Just looking at cheaper alternatives. Like you say, if we got him and he gets back to the player of 2+ years ago then I think it would be a good buy. I think he'd be a lot happier at United and would probably get his game back.
 
Theres rumours today of signing a pre-contract with Feghouli aswell from Valencia in January for a free transfer next season. Not a bad player and was good at the WC
