Trying to save face or the truth?

But of course we could have been rejected without making any bids. We alll know that the offer is by no means the first part of the process.

I think United would be better off just keeping quiet in these situations.

Johannsen---brintino--kendricka
Messi---Lawrenci--maximus

What team of the tournament was Rojo in? Almost everyone I've seen so far has Blind as Left Back.

Could be wrong and would have to check it but I think I remember hearing he was in the top 11 based on the Castrol Performance Index. You know those ratings associated with Fifa.

the consensus in Italy amongest Juve fans (according to work colleague who supports them) is that Vidal wants to leave and is waiting for us to put in an offer in.

How many Juve fans did he poll?

All I can say is I'd be supplying plenty of balls for the center forward. :eek:

Were those Vidal quotes ever verified? The one from from two (ish) weeks ago where he allegedly said "if the deal falls through with United" (paraphrasing!)

adox · 20-08-2014 04:19PM

Ah lads you are going out of your way to pick at Homers posts at this stage.

You know what he ****ing meant.

He'll do well at Newcastle.

newballsplease · 20-08-2014 04:32PM

I believe it that UTd havent yet bid for Vidal.
Still think LVG wants to see how he plays after his injury. No point spending £40+mill on a player who you're just not 100% certain on.

Would Morgan Schneiderlin be a crazy idea?

The Glazers make me sick to the core. Just a mere glance at their rat faces and their dead eyes makes me want to punch the screen. Would love to see them chased out of our club.

Edit: and some people constantly give out about Fellaini, while that shower who have pillaged the club for years are sitting up in the stands grinning at how they pulled off the robbery of funds that were earned from fans and hard working staff.

He is better than Anderson, cleverley and fletcher combined so no be a good signing.

I think its the standard of players, football and sh&t results over the past 12 months thats the main problem, dont you?

The most prevalent issue is transfers or an apparent lack of movement by the club.

This is the the type of player we should be adding to our midfield right now. He's significantly better than what we have and even he should be attainable.

Instead of shooting for the stars with the likes of Vidal/Fabregas/kroos who result in long drawn out sagas where we fall on our arses empty handed, we should actually improve our midfield by signing the likes of a Schneiderlin.

By all means then try signing the big boys. At least we would have strengthened some little bit if they fail. Get rid of the Cleverleys et al to reduce the numbers.

yes, but you cant blame the media for us not signing players though really?

some of the posters on here bring their dads to the games (lads 60+) that wouldnt go near the media or a computer and even they are able to see whats happening without being influenced.

media plays a part, but the club is not helping matters.

Agree, definitely think he'd be gettable, would improve our midfield, we could take our time doing a deal for Strootman and would definitely sort things out for a few years.

He'd have been the first player from saints I'd have taken. Improvement all round.

Haha. Fellaini nominates Moyes.

No its posters getting hung up on media stories of United missing out on X target because of X reason.

We have established that nobody knows what's going on inside United at least where transfers are concerned, but people will have criticisms based on these BS stories.

That is an awful amount of vitriol for something that's been proven untrue.

If the glazers weren't here where would we be?

I'm not fighting his battles, I'm sure he can do that well enough himself.

I will speak my mind on here though.

On the Glazers - I find it difficult to see a difference in the pattern of spending before and after they arrived. There's been plenty of money spent since they took over, unfortunately a huge amount of it has been completely misdirected.
