    Arthur of the O'Vidals...forget 4th...we're gunning for the title

    This day two weeks ago you were saying that your mate in JP Morgans, who handles United's affairs no less, told you Vidal would be signing within 24 hours.
    Obviously this was BS.

    This day last week you were saying that your mate in JP Morgans, who handles United's affairs no less, told you Vidal would be signing within 24 hours.
    Obviously this was BS.

    Today you're at it again. No one believes your BS.

    And if by miracle, Vidal does sign for us at some point, I'm sure you will appear and say "look, I told you all. I know stuff"

    I had been of that opinion, but I've swung the other way now, given how long it has gone on. If it was going to happen, there would have been something concrete at this point.

    I've resigned myself to another season of oppositions just running straight past our midfield.

    Aye, Play cleverly and carrick and we may die. Run and support another team and you will live at least awhile. And dying in your bed many years from now,
    would you be willing to trade all the vidals from this day to that for
    one chance, just one chance, to come back here as young men and tell
    the naysayers that they may take our lives but they will never take
    our MATAAAAA

    I feel a signing today

    Not going to get sucked in but just commenting on it.

    Eduardo Hernandez, Chico's agent is supposed to have said that a swap deal between Chico and Vidal plus money is going to happen 'soon'. It was in the Daily Mail I read this but still its a 'rumour' so to speak. The article goes on to say Juve want two players and £36M. I think its a safe bet the other player is Nani. all speculation of course.

    From memory of the original deal wen Javier was signed by United, I always thought his 'agent' was his grandfather who claimed to have been kept in the dark about the united move. ah well, another day another rumour (or the same one just rehashed).

    Please god let it be Vidal !!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,333 ✭✭✭brinty


    I'm hoping for a signing before the swansea game but thats all.
    I just can't see us getting something done before it.
    Based on Shaw and Herrera they deals were released a day before they did their medicals and signings, so unless something comes out later today and a medical is done tomorrow I just don't see a signing being made beforehand

    He did weeks ago. :(


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


    I imagine a signing will be done before the Swansea game if it is possible but I don't think there will be any chance the player signed, most likely Rojo imo will be playing in the game.

    A midfield of Herrera and Fellaini won't be walzed through either as far from perfect as it would be.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,206 ✭✭✭Lucas Hood


    Please god let it be Vidal !!
    Why? He's not going to play so what does it matter if he signs now or any time over the next 2 weeks ?

    If you had read the article you'll have seen that his agent said no such thing. The DM is putting words in his mouth.

    I dreamt it last night. Was watching sky-sports and got excited.

    Could have been a wet dream also.

    Did say he was 'supposed' to have said it and it was a rumour. Ah well.

    Digging deeper what his agent actually said was “I have no news at the moment on an exchange, I haven't spoken to anyone in England, but there will be news soon.”

    I wonder would VG consider going 4-3-3 for the Swansea game considering the injuries.

    DDG
    Young--Smalling--Jones--James
    --Herrera--Fletcher--Fellaini---
    Mata

    Welbeck----Rooney

    I'd imagine he'll stick with 3 CBs to start anyway. Young at RB worries me.

    Probably will. I just have a feeling we're going to be shown up in midfield with only Herrera and Fletcher in there. Have horrid visions of Shelvy running directly at our defence.

    Jesus, how did it come to this. :o

    Just look at it! And yet we get called "moaners" for being unhappy with how the summer went. :rolleyes:

    why? LVG trusts them so obviously there is no problem to worry about.

    redbaron came up with that lineup not LVG. :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 17,266 ✭✭✭✭Nalz

    Young and a youngster at fullbacks in a 442, even LVG can't stand over that yet. It is a bit scary, for me! Don't think its LVGs desire to start that way :P

    But I'm guessing your post was an irresistible sarcastic reply :)

    I didnt know Red Baron was LVG or a manager of a top football club. :rolleyes:

    Who is Rojo going to be backup for? Who was going to keep Vermaelen out of the team?
