Juan Mata

[OneMoSalah 8,807]

But you take him out of this team and we're in the title hunt which we haven't been in in a few years. Pick your poison bro.

Still you are making out as if Mata hasn't been the best player to play for this club (imo) since Zola in terms of ability...

I'd rather have Mata than Oscar. I'd rather have Mata than most players in the world in his position except for maybe Ozil.

[Sidzeret 2,257]

Still can't believe this is fucking happening

Interesting to hear what Moyes will say in the pre match interview...

That is a stretch. Sometimes its smart to sell when it most benefits you. And I think that time is now.

95 guests !?! FUCK OFF to all of you United CUNTS!

Really? Because it only seems to be benefited United by the looks of it. Bale went for 90m, Mata is better. 35M is a joke.

I can't believe this is actually happening.

Horrible injury for Falcao today in the French Cup against an amateur side or something like that! He could miss the World Cup in Brasil...

At least now we know a name we won't chase with the money we get from Mata. I must admit I was thinking Jose would go for Falcao (amonst others) with that money. Feel sorry for the colombian, such a pitty footballers get injured that bad against waiters, hotel receptionists or fishermen...

People also underestimate how much of a loss JT was last season. He only started 11 games last season. Instead Mata our best performing player gets the blame for the failure.

Not the lack of an elite striker to bail us out, the poisonous atmosphere around the club after RDM's sacking or the error prone defending & lack of leadership at the back.

Liverpool still have a better record without Suarez than they do with him playing despite their resurgence this year, I suppose they should have gotten rid in the summer right?

Rob Beasley is a massive bellend.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

From what I can see there is literally nothing on the Guardian site relating to anything like that. Would you be able to locate the link?

It's somewhere in the last 20-30 pages, so probably not. I didn't even read the whole thing. But in the subtitles there were a few headlines including "Chelsea want preagreement for Rooney" and "Poll: Is Mata worth 37m?" and stuff like that..

[nadavTKL 1,787]

Why fucking rescue United from their awful situation? we're a joke... Next season they could win the league with him, what the club would think then?

[5354 204]

Disgusting bid.

Its so low.

Mata is worth at least 50m.

[Christo191 173]

Rob Beasley is a massive bellend.

And don't forget a cunt, a massive cunt I mean who writes TaTa MATA!

[YouNameIt 1,511]

This will backfire far up our asses.

1. Who gives a flying fuck if we get 35-40m for Mata to "spend on other players". Since when has Chelsea held back on this? Whoever we want to sign, we would sign them even if we didnt sell Mata for that price.

2. Some people say that Mata to United isnt a big deal. Well, you are bloody clueless if you claim that. A proper #10 is EXACLY what they have been missing and he will fire them up again. Dont fucking forget they have RvP and Rooney, absolute top strikers.

3. We sell one of our best players. Some people are saying Oscar is better than Mata. Well, what do you base this on? Because someone here at the forum said so? Well, let me bring the news flash for you: Mata has created more chances than Oscar EVEN THOUGH Oscar has played alot more.

Suck on that one...

Seems like they might have removed it now though. They've still got the article wherein they say United are adamant that Rooney will not be part of any deal, assumingly meaning a pre-agreement is also out of the question. Personally I find it remarkable how Chelsea are so willing to sell to them when United were so unwilling to negotiate with us in the summer for one of their players; they even 'leaked' to the press that Chelsea had offered money + Luiz/Mata for Rooney. That really doesn't seem too implausible looking back now though.

[didierforever 7,349]

good that the bid is just 35mil... we definitely wont sell him for anything lesser than 40mil. minimum.

Do you remember when Eden Hazard joined and how it was instant success between him and Juan? The chemistry between them was just so instant and incredible. I just cannot see it between Eden and Oscar, not to such an extent.
