jernej93 569 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Schneiderlin to United seems to be done deal. Some great bussines from Manchester and we are still sleeping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 United still need a starting CB, GK (assuming DDG leaves) and a CF before their squad is pretty much complete. Oscar and Muzchap 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,952 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Schneiderlin, Schweinsteiger, Depay, and Darmian. Still a couple to come in still.City have splashed huge on Sterling and are clearly just getting started. Arsenal have improved with Cech.Our preseason starts in days and all we've done is get Falcao in as a 3rd striker. stroey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arsenal have improved with Cech.Our preseason starts in days and all we've done is get Falcao in as a 3rd striker.Half of this has happened in the past few days. Schweini just happened, sterling just happened, Schneiderlin has just recently been all towards Man U. In fact, Sterling and Schneiderlin aren't even official. No need to hit the panic button.

RhesusReus 219 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Makelele was a huge man wasn't he all 5 ft 7 of himYep. Makelele was the average, not the exception. There are dozens of 5'7 DMs dominating world football. Not.Makelele was the outlier. And the game has moved on since his time 10 years ago.

Arsenal have improved with Cech.Our preseason starts in days and all we've done is get Falcao in as a 3rd striker.Maybe youth will get a chance?Maybe Traore and RLC will be actually utilized as something more than bit part players.Isn't that what people have been crying out for? Clubs can't bye 2-3 world class players every transfer window and bring in youth players. I don't see many La Masia players breaking through at Barca now that they have gone the Galacticos route with Neymar, Suarez, Arda, and soon Pogba.If Jose is going to bring through Traore and RLC, then I'm all for not signing world class players this window. Sure, we aren't likely to win the UCL that route, and will struggle to retain the EPL, but I'd like to see us add some young players into the mix so that in 2-3 years, they are top notch and competing at a high level as we reap the benefits.But if Jose pussies out and plays Ramires out wide and Mikel beside Matic as the primary alternative to our best XI, then I'm going to be miffed.Maybe the new contract he signed had guarntees that if youth players come through, the pressure to win trophies won't be so intense on Jose that he fears for his job.I hope that's the case. Otherwise, we're basically watching our rivals strengthen and hoping they are not improved enough to catch us. A dangerous game.

Iggy Doonican 4,186 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Yep. Makelele was the average, not the exception. There are dozens of 5'7 DMs dominating world football. Not.Makelele was the outlier. And the game has moved on since his time 10 years ago.Inniesta, and Xavi another couple of giants. I have no idea what an outlier is. Not every midfield player is built like Matic and R.L.C. if anything there the exception not the rule. The game has moved on so small midfielders won't be considered total bollocks.

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.

These are the top 3 DMs in the world.You can have small midfielders, like a Verrati or a Pirlo, but you better make sure you have a Thiago Motta or Paul Pogba beside them.

King11Didier 916 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I just hope we can get at least one more player before the pre-season starts. That will surely help him to settle in his new club faster. And I think Mou will buy one or two more players. If he really blocked Mikel's exit, then only 1 AM and one defender if Luis is leaving. I'll only be disappointed if Mou let Remy go away, but for other transfers I trust in him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
