By wedward Go To PostIf we don't challenge for the league or make it to the CL semi's this season or next I think Sanchez will want out.yup
He seems too competitive to be willing to sit around and not compete for major trophies.
we need to make a signing now
By LanceVance Go To PostPedros career will be over in 2 years
I'd retire after winning the CL also.
By Auto Go To Postyup

We really need one. Striker needs to be top class because otherwise what is the point.
Sell Flamini. Sign someone that can run a lot and tackle. Polish lad will do.

Nah, we already have 3 that are all pretty different. Really just need a top class one that fits our style.
By Kidjr Go To PostI honestly feel that sentence could end up in a Brendan Rodgers interview.CCS showed great character in that post
Would take a stupid offer to get Southampton to sell this late in the window. Isn't worth it.
Even if we've actually pulled out of the Pedro deal for football reasons, which I doubt, it's still been another window which is ending in a mess for United. We don't learn.

I think United fans have unrealistic expectations for the transfer window. You were never going to get all the players you needed in this window. Look how many players you have signed over the past two seasons. Its an insane amount of money and a lot of players. If the players LVG wants aren't available, what are you supposed to do?
In three seasons you have signed Fellaini, Mata, Falcao, Di Maria, Herrera, Shaw, Darmian, Schneiderlin, Depay, Bastian and Rojo.
If you still think United are clueless or haven't learned, you are nuts.

Agree. Think it's been a good window so far. Lots of dead wood out. Some good additions that have strengthened us overall. Still think there's a bit more to come though.

Spot on.
I don't have a problem missing out on Pedro. I said before that it would be very hard to fix all our problems in one window and that we've actually done good business this summer. But this target hopping and the De Gea situation was unneeded and just causes embarrassment for the club.
By n8 Go To PostFucking hell Jesalr the hits keep coming - http://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2015/aug/19/liverpool-bournemouth-defence-attack-paul-wilsonN8, pls, don't listen to the Guardians lies. We are surprising. Remember that time we bought 7 players for £100m and then finished 7th after being tipped for top 4. Remember that time we let a 13 point lead drop, finished 4th instead of third, and then lost a CL spot because Chelsea somehow clanked the CL. Remember that time we let a 2-0 lead go against Stoke with only 10 minutes left?
Actually, no, not a one of those is a surprise.

Thank you lads, I'm not doing anything next year so I'll happily take over when Brendan gets sacked in the summer.

You have the 2018 ballon dor winner already

Someone uploaded the Carragher and Neville HT analysis from MNF. Really interesting stuff -- it's very American to be honest. That level of technology and in-depth look at film seems to me like it's far less common in England since they seem to value the eyeball test over tactical views and detailed insight like this. Am I simply misinformed?
Have seen Thauvin play a few times before and came away impressed. I think it's a very good signing for Newcastle.

You're right, it isn't commonplace elsewhere. I always wanted them to show a graphic on ITV showing Roy Keane's contempt levels towards Adrian Chiles.
I don't know why United bros are worried. Could actually be a blessing in disguise, we need to give plenty of game time to the new Ronaldo, the new Messi, and the new Bale.
By Willkiller Go To PostI hope you're right, to be fair I haven't seen much of him. I just have a bad feeling about it, can't quite put my finger on it.French player, bought from France
Its only natural to be scared of history repeating itself :P
ignore Sissoko and Cabaye
By Willkiller Go To PostI hope you're right, to be fair I haven't seen much of him. I just have a bad feeling about it, can't quite put my finger on it.Have heard he has a bit of an attitude though, so hopefully he and Mitrovic don't cause too much friction. Cabella obviously hasn't offered anything of use though so it seems like this can only be an upgrade..

I think they are still looking for that feather in the cap signing. A guy who you know lets the world know for real that "Manchester United is back!" I guess Di Maria was supposed to be that guy...

Think that's the problem for some. Looking for the marquee signing Wooders keeps promising whilst not really understanding the reality of signing a top player from a top club. The only way you get those types of players is if the situation is just right, see: Di Maria, Ozil and Sanchez.

Strange
Someone will pick him up once his leg starts working again. So beginning of next season.
By Hitch Go To PostRon Vlaar hasn't got a clubHe's currently injured and won't be fit until Christmas iirc. No club would risk taking a punt.

Will I bought Thauvin for 4.4m on FM for Palace and sold him for 18m the season after to Arsenal
Dean also r8s him from his time on PES
If that doesn't tell you he's good I don't know what will

Can you pronounce that in Skånska?
SLAENT needs the addition of having your posts highlighted like GAF. Really nice when scanning down a big thread. Fewer posts per page here so it's not as "necessary", but it is really appreciated regardless.
16 minutes long, quite thorough analysis.
