robdog 2,084 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 didn't realize they were so close to Liverpool. Well, I still believe Mata won't fix ManUtd - which was my primary point. It requires magic to do as such. He'll improve them, but they're still awful. And let's not forget the clueless guy bossing them. I'm not even sure Moyes knows how to maximize a player like Mata or simply use him at all.TBF, it could give them a lift and lead to a snowball effect of getting better players in. It's just that now is pretty rubbish and will take time for United to sort this mess out.From my viewpoint, it's yanited's defense that needs fixing. They couldn't stop anyone last season, but they had rvp & looney rooney scoring for them. Now those guys aren't there, the goals aren't coming & manure's d still gives up the goals. That side needs a massive overhaul. But tbh, Moyes is doing what Moyes does...Guide mid-table sides Barbara 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoranZg 56 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Schurrle in for 18mWillian in for 32m.Mata out for 37mDe Bruyne out for 17mLukaku - questionable future with usMatić - sold for peanuts, bought back for 25m---------------------------------------------------------WTF?!? There is no way I can understand Chelsea transfer policy and I can't fight that feeling that we practically traded much better players (Mata, De Bruyne) for Schurrle and Willian (with all due respect to the both). But than again, am I surprised? No. Simply, it's Mou. It is his signature move. He will always do something very few of us can understand, and I'm just not among those. Hope we will not regret these questionable calls.As for Mata, I can't say I wish him all the luck in the world since he is joining ManUtd, but I'm not angry at fellow at all. As far as I'm concerned, he was pushed out of the door just few months after he was named our player of the season for very goor reasons. So, thank you Juan for lovely memories. lionsden 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post! The Mak 4,459 Posted January 22, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted January 22, 2014 I can't get the image out of my head: Mata driving up north tonight all by himself after being forced out of the club... I'm not so sure he asked to leave. I mean, look at the fucking state of their team for christ's sake. I'm sure he'd rather stay and fight or at least move to somewhere like Atletico. God damn, I am going to miss that man. Sick that we have to see him every week wearing that red piece of shit. SinineUltra, manpe, kellzfresh and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TacticalBlues 2,817 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 “The Times” claimed Mata asked to leave - but here’s another story:The Telegraphhttp://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/manchester-united/10590820/Juan-Matas-37million-transfer-to-Manchester-United-accepted-by-Chelsea.html Contrary to claims Mata, Chelsea player of the year for the past two seasons, has not had to ask to leave with Mourinho accepting that the scale of United’s offer is too big to refuse given his priorities in strengthening his team lie elsewhere. The bid is at a level that it will have been deemed impossible to turn down by the Chelsea board. The Mak and sdrcfc 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrus 422 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 And let's not forget the clueless guy bossing them. I'm not even sure Moyes knows how to maximize a player like Mata or simply use him at all.It's probably the worst part of this deal. He's wasting Kagawa and there's a big chance Mata won't be better off there than in Chelsea. At least Mourinho knew what exactly he wanted from Mata and made it clear (and I'm still convinced Mourinho's way was Mata's best chance to get into Spanish NT, but I understand why Mata wanted to leave). But Moyes is clueless! I can just imagine something like "You go play #10. Oh no, we're still playing sh*t, go play on the right! Damn, doesn't help, go play defence. Ah, we still lost, go play attacker. And we're still sh*t, so you're useless!" type of managing from Moyes, and it saddens me.

Popular Post! Rmpr 8,977 Posted January 22, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted January 22, 2014 That would fuck up the entire plan. We'd get less money for Mata meaning less money to spend.Also we wouldn't be able to get Costa/Shaw in the january window.Which clubs are you talking about ? What clubs have that kind of money, actually need Mata and would be willing to build the team around him ?Disagree with your comment about man united being more desperate in the summer. atm they're in serious danger of missing out on CL football next season that's a big blow financially.Don't think they can get get more desperate then they are now.All your questions are pretty easy to answer, one doesnt even need to think much...Clubs that might go for Mata in the summer? PSG, Monaco, Real, Atletico, ManUtd, Inter, etc. PSG needs a CAM, Pastore and Lucas arent being able to get the job done and there are a lot of rumours about them leaving or being loaned out. Monaco might want Mata if they lose Falcao or they could even workout a trade + money deal if we were interested. Real fans (I have family in Madrid) want a CAM to replace Ozil and maybe Di Maria (which can leave RM) and he is Spanish. Atletico might have a lot of cash if they sell Costa, Koke or Turan and they actually do buy replacements for the players they lose. Inter has a new owner, new manager and no quality midfielders, they could be inclined to offer a cheeky 30mi bid. Etc.About ManUtd, you said they are already overly desperate just with the fear of losing UCL. How do you think they will be if they DO actually miss the top 4? Yes, super desperate!This excuse that we would only be able to sell Mata in the summer for 20mi is absolutely ridiculous. Although I agree we wouldnt be able to get the 37mi we have right now, we would easily be able to get 30mi or so.And for Chelsea, losing 7mi in a better deal with a non-rival is better than to handle Mata to Manchester and Moyes...
