Are you serious? lol

Utd needed someone who lived and breathed the philosophy of the club. Moyes was that person and Fergie always liked him. Van Gaal would have failed at Utd.

The jury is still out on Moyes. The fans and board will give him time to turn it around.

I'm talking about someone to rebuild the team, and LvG is the perfect one to do so. Specially with the lack of good players in their first team.

What's the philosophy of the club? Play more strikers than midfielders?

LvG would get rid of dead weight and promote a lot of the youth talent, and sign a couple of good players. Implant the possession game style, etc. Surely it wouldn't last more than 2 season with him in charge, but he would rebuild the team in that time.

 

[doicare]

boy oh boy have i got the solution for your dull defective defense

Thanks but Jones and Rafael are better. Will take that Ronaldo kid tho.

 

[Leg-End]

Listen to yourself. He is injured. Do you know what that means? That means he can't be rubbish because he haven't played or played carrying an injury.

Or are you saying he have been more rubbish before joining Man United because that pretty pretty stupid statement to say...

Also I am commenting about Fellaini, not give a shit about your midfield.

I don't rate Fellaini, the small time he wasn't injured he played deeper than his time at Everton and didn't look anywhere near the pace. If thats the standard of midfielder Man Utd are going to settle for then good luck, he's a squad piece at best (in that position).

At Everton, Fellaini played further forward, he stood out because he used his height and strength to be a menace at set pieces and disrupt play, he was a complete handful and he worked in that system. Difference now is Man Utd have better players who already play that position, Rooney, Kagawa, Welbeck.

 

[GHG]

Why didn't Wenger put in any clever clauses into that contract is beyond me.

To bring him back you mean? Fuck that noise. Long term, him leaving has had the opposite effect on us. We struggled initially but there is no doubting that we've become a better team without him.

Moses just said Man United played well and hopefully if they should win games if they continue to play well. "Hopefully"... My goodness.

 

[operon]

Moyes is the right man for United. Used to surviving for years on a shoe string budget the Glazers can swim in all that lovely money Woodward is raking in instead of signing players.

 

[Splatt]

Loool

who's that?

and why?

Gary Fraser from Partick Thistle being punished for having the worst physical test results :lol:

A look at Tevez future when he gets back from Argentina

 

[Salvadora]

Moyes: "If I was going to change my mind in the transfer window, it wouldn’t be because of what I saw in this game."

David Moyes: "We played really well today. We didn't deserve to be behind."

Wow.

 

[Yurt]

Phew.

Apologies FW.

would it really surprise you if ArsenalGAF thought Bale is theirs?

-----Rooney-----
-Cazorla---Ozil----Bale
-----Vidal----Pogba

 

[Tim the Wiz]

Yeah, but that's cause he's Frogson. Moyes obviously deserves a share of the blame but he hasn't been handed an ideal situation by any stretch.

Do we really have the seventh best squad in the league? Aren't there other managers at clubs above us in a 'transition' situation? At some point, the excuses for a lack of tactical effectiveness begin to look weak. Everyone attributes the success to his man-management, rotation, et al. but I think Ferguson was underrated as a tactician and in the way he oversaw his coaching staff.

I think Jupp is talking about van Gaal setting up the foundation for another manager to follow.

Not nevcessarily bring him back but get something out of United in the long run.

All joking aside someone needs to sit him down and remind him who he's managing now. He is not at Everton now. hopefully ffs

@SkySportsPeteO: Jose Mourinho has told Juan Mata and Michael Essien that his door is open if they want to leave Chelsea. #CFC

.

 

[K1LLER7]

Wow.

Expected. He won't come out and put the team down in front of the media.

He'll do that behind closed doors.

 

[L1NETT]

Wow.

Only a cretin manager changes his transfer plan because of one game. To be fair to him, United weren't dominated round the pitch.

I'm sure he has his targets in mind, just a question if they can get them

Nothing wow about that quote at all

At all

 

[operon]

.

Brendan free mata plz

 

[Meier]

Comparing Man City's achievements to any other teams is dumb. The money they have spent is fucking ridiculous.

City spent about £86m this summer after selling quite a few players and Balotelli in the spring. Cut about £30m in salary from outgoing players and all new signings are under £100k a week. Spent quite well really. Net spend compared to Arsenal in 2013 was probably only about £20m more.

 

[Elchele]

yep. just like he did at Bayern.

:lol it's nice just to look at one transfer market and not the massive disaster you have in your accounts from the last few years

Wut?!

Mata will be in Paris by Feb.

United didn't "deserve" to be behind is certainly questionable.

Wenger pls. Mata false 9.

 

[Freewheelin']

Wenger. Now!!!

Do we really need Mata? haha, at this point it would be overkill!

dont be dim lol

imagine if you had Ozil feeding RvP up front instead of that fucking donkey

you might even be CL contenders

pls understand

Let's see if united want to talk about mata and Rooney.

Manchester United manager David Moyes: "The performance was really good. It was a stonewall penalty kick and sending off for the goalkeeper. I find it unbelievable that the referee doesn't give a penalty kick and a sending off.

"Then he goes and books Adnan Januzai for diving. I find it incredible. People who employ referees are going to have to look at that. Today we played well. We're not asking for anything, we're asking for the right thing. I don't know what's a penalty kick if that's not.

"I thought we defended really well, got done by a couple of counter-attacks today. The boys played well and we couldn't take the opportunities when they came along.

"All you can do is play well and hope you take the opportunities when they come. Their effort was terrific in trying to come back from 2-0 down. We didn't deserve to be behind. We'll keep trying to win the next game, that's all you can do. We're not necessarily looking at the league table."

Probably get fined.

 

[Meier]

:lol

Negredo looks like the signing of the summer, Ferna has been one of the best CMs in the prem, Navas is as good as any winger in the league. Demichelis has been solid cover. Jovetic is still a question mark, but City had a fantastic summer in terms of signings. No one would say otherwise.

 

[Baki]

Do we really need Mata? haha, at this point it would be overkill!

It's Mata. Buy if available , don't let rivals have him.

 

[kharma45]

Let's see if united want to talk about mata and Rooney.

Seeing as Mata ain't a CM or a LB probably not.

Mata is gone.

Arsenal fans thinking of getting mata and justjohn said we were deluded

 

[Vivalaraza]

Listen to more pressers Sal, and wow will be no more.

Doesn't matter what he says. Fact his team don't look like they know what they're doing on the pitch says alot more.

 

[Fry]

Brentan pls.

Mata pls.

Chelsea pls.

Suarez - Django
Coutinho - Mata - Sterling
Henderson - Gerrard

DREAMYYYYYY

 

[justjohn]

Wenger pls. Mata false 9.

We're not selling him to a direct rival without getting something in return. And I'm not talking money.

 

[K1LLER7]

Chelsea would be stupid to sell to a PL team unless BIG money was offered.

 

[Perfect Blue]

We aren't going to sell Mata to a rival squad. Mourinho isn't an idiot.

If anything he'll go to Inter like a lot of the rumours say.

 

[Mr.Marston]

Arsenal fans thinking of getting mata and justjohn said we were deluded

JustJohn was right for once.

oh? pray tell what the bloody fuck are you looking at then you mesozoic primate? adnan's nascent pubes?

 

[Freewheelin']

It's Mata. Buy if available , don't let rivals have him.

Suppose it's the same as Ozil then, but Chelsea would never sell Mata to us or anyone in the same league. They know how good he is. Maybe a move to PSG, but I'd love to see him stay in the league

 

[Elchele]

Don't underestimate how much RVP leaving effected Wenger. If RVP had stayed there is no way we would have bought Ozil. RVP's betrayal was the moment Wenger decided to say fuck it and join the big spenders.

 

[L1NETT]

Mata my son get out of there. You deserve better. Gonna be no end of suitors.

Think he will stay in England, settled and all that?

No idea who he will end up at. Can't see Arsenal at all, stickerbook mentality from their fans that one.

City...nah. United...doesn't strike me as a Moyes signing.

Everton loan confirmed

 

[Lightning]

We're not selling him to a direct rival without getting something in return. And I'm not talking money.

Mata plus money and take Suarez. You'll win the league.

 

[Randdalf]

If Mata is available, I think it's more likely he'll go to Arsenal than Liverpool, I doubt he wants to move from London. That said, I'm not sure Chelsea would want to sell to a domestic rival and would rather let him go abroad.

 

[Scum]

Let's see if united want to talk about mata and Rooney.

Mou is too much of a troll to flog Mata off to Man Utd or a EPL club for that matter. He'll probably con PSG out of a shit load of money instead.
