Juan Mata

No.

Did you make this up or have you spoken to Mourinho and the Chelsea board?

Mourinho said it in a press conference...

Mourinho said it in a press conference...

HAHAHAHA

Yeah, because everything Mourinho says in a press conference is the ACTUAL truth.

Mourinho is the master when it comes to playing mind games with the media.

Haha.. its funny how some people seem to think that Mata desired to leave.

Chelsea wanted to sell him and made it clear he wouldnt be allowed to play for us. He was basically forced to leave.

HAHAHAHAHA

and I guess you got the truth right. Shame people put down the club to support a player.

Beyond me how people form logic like that.

Still don't understand why Manchester bought him for so much.

It's not like at right wing, he offers much more than Januzaj.

Its sad to say this, but mourinho knew this. He knew moyes was making another panic buy. There is no way mata is useful on the wing after so much failed experiments with us, with no speed and its impossible to put any of rooney or RVP on the bench without quarrel.

Mourinho knowing moyes capabilites of a manager made sure his panic buy money was coming to chelsea's pocket to help mourinho fund players he wants.

Classic this thread.

Mata did want to leave?? Hardly anyone big moves in January so he did have a say in it. chelsea wasn't the Mata show anymore and Utd were desperate to sign ANYONE so they did and paid way over the top for a player who was not playing.

Jose said he Mata still had a job for us.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Beyond me how people form logic like that.

The guy thinks that because he somehow guessed we'd win the CL, that his opinion is gospel. Laughable.

[Billy. 2,742]

He wanted to go simple,

also is it true he gets a medal if we win the league this season?

[Special Juan 28,123]

He deserves a fucking medal going there.

[pWneR 230]

^Yep, he played more than 10 matches, he's eligible.

[Jase 43,479]

Looks like this thread will be flooded with posts about Mata every time United plays, never mind when he scores and/or assists only. So much for 'get over it'...

[Special Juan 28,123]

I'm well over him, just laughing like fuck at the shit he's joined.

At the beginning of the game Martin Tyler and Gary Neville was talking about Juan Mata, they were saying what a coup it was and it shows that they can still sign the best players in the world... Lets be honest here, as far as we know United was the only club willing to offer that much for Juan. He wasn't getting played here, Jose clearly didn't fancy him meaning his only real choice was United. In the summer if United get the likes of Vidal, Reus and Gundogan i'll be shocked.

The United fans don't know it now but Champions league is a big deal, not only the revenue but for attracting big players. You can look at City for example and say they signed the Likes of Tevez, Toure and Agureo without champions league football, but look at their wage bill and lets be honest it was a great project for those players. United don't have that.

Look at us for example, we were 7th and many of us said we wouldn't mind not getting CL, because it meant we can rebuild... looking back, how wrong were we? we signed Marin in April, and that was us preparing for life without CL football. Instead we won the Cl and managed to get Hazard. That's the difference.

I'm not saying they cant buy big players, because they can, but lets say United were close to signing Vidal and City come in last minute, who would he want to join? City or United...
