    How does Utd's worst transfer sound?

    Like a completely different statement!

    I know it is. Just trying to nail down a acceptable statement. Not saying hes there yet but hes heading in that direction.

    Errrmmmm

    Bebe
    Taibi
    Veron
    Jordi Cryuff

    etc etc

    There are some serious roasters in our back catalogue of signings, Fell has a huge part to play in the rebuilding of the team I believe.


    Those players were signed for peanuts bar Veron who was a WC player and still did a good job for us I believe so to even put him in with those lot is criminal

    Fell hasn't got what it takes at the high level and doesnt have the football brain to take us to the next level. I couldnt see much of the match tonight but I did see in the 1st half where we put together some lovely passes and yet again Fell ****s it up. He isn't capable of one 2 touch football. He's a hacker or a lob ball specialist.

    Apart from Veron, all those players cost small money. Bebe will recoup a chunk of his money I would guess given his form this season.

    If Fellaini continues this dross then he will hold the title. Even Veron showed glimpses of brilliance.

    There's highlights on Sky Sports 1 now.

    Yup, Fellaini has been absolutely atrocious and I see no signs of it changing anytime soon. Too rash in a tackle, too awkward and slow on the ball and just generally not good enough at the very highest level.

    Oh how things might have been different had we spent 30m on Ross Barkley last summer! :pac:

    Great to see the youngsters flourish tonight. Januzaj looked brilliant when he was on the ball and another couple of seasons of beefing himself up should see him be able to withstand some of the shoves he was getting tonight.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25,953 ✭✭✭✭kryogen


    He looks like a man bereft of confidence, actually had a couple of decent moments in the game in fairness to him, could go either way I guess but I won't throw him to the wolves just yet


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,437 ✭✭✭redbaron_99


    I wonder if Welbeck would have taken those two chances if he had played instead of Wilson tonight...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,241 ✭✭✭Vic Vinegar


    RVP looks way happier now.

    Watching highlights on ss1 januzaj looked to have an unbelievable game

    Giggs should stay on playing for another year


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 18,762 Mod ✭✭✭✭DM_7


    Januzaj on the right will solve some problems next season. I can't see Valencia leaving since he can play right back.

    Youngs must be worried about next season.

    He was good all right. Doesn't get enough appreciation imo. Lot's of people got carried away with his first few games and there has been a major over correction since.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25,953 ✭✭✭✭kryogen


    Jan did look better in his more natural position, but I do question the quality he was up against

    Yeah great to see him keep in good form, Steve Bruce gave him great praise

    The last time a junior made his league debut scoring twice…he went to a pretty good career…Wilson is following good company! #bobbycharlton

    Fellani has no luck at all ... Mr Wilson my boy take a bow.

    Some rise from a lad that was playing in the z team against Waterford Utd last time I saw him. Think he scored that night too? Anyone confirm?

    Quicker ball from midfield at times with Kagawa as well as United looking for him on the break when he would have more space helped bring best from him.

    It's easy to forget Januzaj is only 10 months older than James Wilson. I can't wait for him to mature further and I honestly think he will be a huge talent for us.

    Seeing Giggs giving his farewell speech there really drives home the massive changes happening at the club.

    With LVG at the helm I can see the club ushering in a new era over the coming years. The money is there, the right manager(for now) is being hired IMO, and with the right additions to the 1st team I'm expecting us to be showing huge improvement next season.

    After a disaster of a season there is some light appearing at the end of our tunnel.

    In relation to Wilson I hope to god he doesnt become the new Macheda.

    He was very good overall, very positive, Wilson will take the headlines but there were two very good debuts out there tonight


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,369 ✭✭✭UnitedIrishman


    With regards Evra and Rio and why they didn't play tonight or what their status is in general, Samuel Luckhurst reports that Evra had a bug and Giggs arranged for next weekend to be Rio's last game with his kids as mascots.
