Angel Di Maria

Read something today saying that Carlo said he is going nowhere.

It would be Özil levels of stupid if they sold him. Which is why I think he'll indeed be sold.

Like I said in another thread last night, I'd do anything to see Di Maria in our team. But I think United are going to get down to the wire, panic, and throw £50m at RM near the deadline and get him.

Well he played a lot as an attacking midfielder at Madrid last season but I would really really be happy if he was on our wings in a few weeks. Brilliant crossing and vision but also great technique and pace. Really complete offensive player. I only see Hazard being better then him in our team.

He would cost more than £50m

[Pizy 17,860]

Apparently just confirmed by Ancelotti that he's rejected a contract renewal.

Come on, José! Let's use that Lukaku money!

[petre.ispirescu 4,928]

About to write the same thing. He also said that De Maria asked the club to let him go in this transfer window.

Him going to United to play as a wing-back in that shit 352 formation would be such a fucking dumb move and a waste of talent.

[Fernando 6,375]

Yeah United getting a top player now.

[Pizy 17,860]

Wouldn't surprise me to see both Khedira and Di Maria end up at United.

[Special Juan 27,093]

Di Maria won't be coming here, not a chance. Too much money, luxury player and we are already stacked.

We just need to replace Torres, that's it.

I agree that there's no way we're signing him, but that old football saying that you can never have too much quality applies to this situation.

Di Maria is so good and so versatile that if he's available you should go for him. He can play multiple positions at a world class level. Scores goals, has ridiculous pace, tremendous work rate, and will contribute to all aspects of play. Worked with José before and knows what to expect from his playing a style.

He's in that Pogba category of players for me that are dream signings and could probably be had if we were genuinely interested, but there's no chance we'll actually go for them. It's gonna be terrible seeing him with the Mancs.

I get what you are saying but we have players such as Oscar, Willian and Schurrle all vying for different positions within the squad and someone is always going to miss out due to numbers. The balance is right for me now, we have really good depth in both the starting 11 and the subs bench, and going for Di Maria makes no sense and that's just based solely on cash without even thinking of players dropping down the pecking order. Our business this window has been excellent, the only one area that is an issue IMO is another forward with shipping out the number if at all possible.

Di Maria is top class, I'm not arguing that, what I am saying is we have a dearth of quality now that have balance and both maturity in the squad were we don't have to shot 40M at another player, it's not needed unless others leave, and barring Torres/Cech I cannot see anyone leaving.

[The only place to be 11,313]

Good player, would take him over Salah and Willian in a heartbeat but can't see that happening now.

Can't imagine he'd play as a wing-back in that United 3421, but behind the striker with Rooney....sucks to be Mata in that case.

[stroey 2,525]

Sell Oscar, Buy Di Maria.

[Korea 734]

It's easy.

GIve Carlo ramires and buy di maria. Put salah on loan.

We would need to off load Willian also to many AMs..

[stroey 2,525]

People are talking about replacing Willian/Salah with Di Maria. Why can't I share my opinion too? Please mind your language, don't call someone "kid" you don't know.

[ulvhedin 471]

him going to PSG would be such a waste. would love to see him in chelsea shirt, but that would mean that Oscar, Willian and Ramires would sit on bench.. don't think it's possible
