If its for 1 year only and for a dirt cheap price then I'm fine with it. If the last ditch Rooney push fails that is.

It would be insane to loan Oscar, KdB, or Schurrle. All 3 are far too good to be loaned.

Arsenal game plan: smack the ball into space for the pace merchant Walcott over and over again. And Fulham just can't seem to figure that out apparently.

Why do people keep saying he'll be on the right wing? Could've sworn his most effective and natural position was LW? Hence Spuds bringing him in as Bale's replacement. I think Hazard will be on the right with Willian on the left.

I'm one of the posters here who have thought all along that we'd never swap Mata for Rooney, but I actually think it may very well happen now. Don't think I could watch United play every weekend with Mata scoring, assisting, and celebrating with the enemy. I'd have to unfollow him on twitter as well since he'd be posting pictures of himself with fucking scum like RvP all the time.

Think so too. I lost faith in this deal a while ago.Think Moyes will start him as a statement.

Willian looks so out of place in that video against CSKA. He looks like the only one trying to play football. All of his teammates are just standing there like lumps.

Yep. I hope we fucking smack United and Jose teabags Moyes after the match.But I'm sure they'll get a nice convenient decision or two to go their way that'll decide the outcome. And imagine how smug Moyes would be if they won. As if he'd have had anything to do with it. Playing with Fergie's team.

Surely the Super Cup will have the highest concentration of elite attacking midfield talent ever assembled in one place.

So when we field "weakened" sides in the League Cup and FA Cup we'll be seeing players that would be first choice at most top clubs in the world. Just crazy.

Just imagine if we've been secretly planning on bringing in another 3 players all along including Willian. Does seem strange that we've neglected our biggest weaknesses. Wouldn't surprise me at all if we end this transfer window with Willian, a DM, and a striker with Moses sold or loaned, Mikel sold, and Ba sold.

Swap around Hazard and Willian and we could win the CL again with that lineup.

Adrian Durham on talkSport thinks Jose is SCARED OF AVB. HAHAHAHAHA!

Josh plays in CM, Calobah is a DM who can also play CB, and Loftus-Cheek is only 17. This affects none of them.

I imagine Hulk will be crying himself to sleep. Wanted badly to come here from Porto but the price was outrageous so he settles for a move to Russia. Gets strongly linked again during the Confeds and publicly states that he's interested in coming here. Now we're gonna buy his compatriot who plays in a similar position. Suicide watch for Hulk!

No, I don't. You're most likely right.

I don't know. That's very possible, but it's not Marin we're talking about here.

He didn't, but it's pretty obvious. None of our other attacking players would be going on loan.

He'll probably go on loan to Everton or West Brom I'd think. He'd probably love working with Martinez again.

What a brilliant fucking press conference! LOL

I certainly agree with you on the ridiculous fee. For that kind of cash we could buy a world class player in CM. I think Willian would be highly effective for us, though.I personally wouldn't be bothered if he was bought, but wouldn't be upset or anything if he isn't. As long as it has no impact on Mata staying or leaving. You're right that this is the last area on the pitch that we should be buying in.

Again guys, if we're really considering Willian maybe it's because Jose wants to play him strictly out wide to provide us with more width. I think Jose would have him rotating with Schurrle at LW which would mean Moses would likely have to be moved on. I know it's only been 2 games, but look how hard we found it for large parts of them trying to unlock these defenses who just park their entire teams around the box. Notice how when we got it out wide and spread them out it was much more effective. When opponents defend really narrowly it negates our attacking midfield. Willian or Schurrle on the left, Mata or Oscar as #10's, and Hazard or De Bruyne on the right. And they can all rotate at will. That's incredible, title winning depth right there.

Can this Manc bastard get the banhammer now?

Wouldn't be surprised if we did want him. But we ain't paying anyone not named Messi 300k a week.

Don't know if I'd go that far but yeah, it's a head scratcher.Hulk would've been the worst signing ever.
