  1. CFC also added the Mobile to Samsung when we initially got sponsored tbh.
  2. Thought I was the only one. It's a trend around here, a lot of people are underestimating City, United and Arsenal, who will continue to spend and get players in this improving their squads.
  3. We should've never sold Schurrle for Cuadrado tbh.
  4. This is exactly my point. Pedro was never established in the Barca XI, they were always looking to improve on him. Why? Because there are better players out there. There will be better players coming up as well. Pedro would just be a stop-gap signing.
  5. I do hope they get rid of Tyres sometime soon.
  6. Those were all brilliant signings and all players that I do really rate, but I just don't feel the same about Pedro. For me it's not about him being a supposed Barcelona reject, I just don't think he's good enough to elevate us to the next level. Don't get me wrong, decent player, but he's not going to tie up the right hand side for us for the foreseeable future.
  7. Lovely, lovely signing. Very happy with this.
  8. He's good, but not good enough to start for a team of United's calibre.
  9. People refuse to believe that Jose rates Mikel and that he's actually useful to the team in certain situations.
  10. If they sign a very good CB they'll be solid defensively. Smalling will continue to grow as a player and I back him to have another good season. Darmian is a good player. Maybe not world class but definitely good enough. Shaw still has massive potential. Towards the latter end of the season when United fixed up they didn't concede much at all. They're definitely just as good as Arsenal, Spurs, and even City defensively IMO. Smalling and Shaw would start at all 3 clubs IMO. If united replace DDG with someone like Lloris as well then their defensive unit isn't too bad at all. You're forgetting that they were a mess defensively because they had to play players like McNair and Blackett.
  11. It was 1m actually. That's not the equivalent to suing us. Regardless both clubs want to resolve this without getting legality involved. If Fiorentina take us to court over a mere 1~3m then good for them.
  12. They're already almost there defensively. They just need one more CB.
  13. They were never suing us to begin with... They were suing Mo Salah.
  14. I don't know why people are so surprised about the price tbh, especially when someone like Pogba is quoted at 100m. The market is messed up.
  15. http://bbc.co.uk/sport/football/33477349
  16. If he gets regular game time there then that'd be a superb loan move.
  17. I would prefer:-----Depay------Rooney------Mata----- ---------------------Di Maria--------------------- --------Schneiderlin---Schweinsteiger-------- Shaw-------New CB-------Smalling------Darmian -----------------------Keeper----------------------- This is very dependent on Di Maria being in top form though. Edit: Some decent depth on the bench as well from United. SUB: Valdes, Jones, Rojo, Herrera, Fellaini, Young, New CF. Plus the likes of Valencia, James Wilson, Rafael, Carrick when he's back... They're building a very decent squad. Depending on their final signings they can definitely make a decent push for the title. PL is looking very exciting next year.
  18. Everyone I wanted bar Boga. What's going on with him?EDIT: Also, what's going on with Colkett and Jay Da Silva?
  19. I'm not so sure the latter is now with the arrivals of both Schneiderlin and Schweinsteiger.
  20. United still need a starting CB, GK (assuming DDG leaves) and a CF before their squad is pretty much complete.
  21. I wonder how people would react if we came in with a bid...
