I quite like Khedira; think he'd be good alongside Herrera, won't matter as much that he isn't great with the ball.

Benatia though, yes pls.

Khedira isn't leaving according to Carletta.

Apparently Ancelotti said the Khedira issue is resolved and he is #staying.

Khedira isn't #leaving according to Carletta.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Apparently Di Maria has only played on pre-season game, probably introduced slowly, still dont expect much improvement till after Christmas, just hope we can stay competitive in the next few months, new CB's should help that.

Sign him tomorrow, give him a run against MK Dons

Zooey is just incredibly pretty.

WHATS UP FADY BOY

Yurt ^^ Long time no see (in here). Wishing you the best against Chievo mate.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Final Fee : 80 million euros including addons.

 

[K1LLER7]

63.9m for Di Maria.

Hopefully he can justify it.

Give him the #7

 

[Mr Cola]

I would not play a man with no pre-season in a cup game where they are going to kick lumps out of us :3, id be surprised if he made the bench for a week or two.

 

[Arnie]

I assume Real now go for Falcao.

That was the hold up, right?

Kroos, Modric, Alonso,

Bale, Falcao, Ronaldo

 

[Wilbur]

64 million when we're the only club in for him :lol :lol :lol

Its what they wanted.

But their midfield needs a Henderson-esque player imo.

Brace yourself for a bid.

Madrid can afford to just keep Di Maria. He might complain, but in the end he'd bow. You're negotiating with one of the big ones, there's only so much room to haggle.
It's still a lot of money, probably too much, but the market is crazy these days.

 

[Blablurn]

Imagine Manchester loses today too. Then they'll bring back CR7 as well.

 

[Fady K]

64m hoooooooooooly shit. Did someone finally break our embarrassing record for Torres?

Granted, Di Maria will deliver the goods tho.

yea...

Now to sing Blind and DeJong

Still need a CB fuck

 

[Wilbur]

James on the bench? Lool

 

[K1LLER7]

We could sign De Jong and Blind....and still not have to worry about FFP.

 

[Mr.Marston]

64 million? Wow.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

We could sign De Jong and Blind....and still not have to worry about FFP.

With the shirt deal kicking in next season, FFP be gone for us.

Mm. Like Arnie says, it pisses me off when fans act like accountants. 64m is a lot, but we have the p so no worries

 

[Kill3r7]

AlexShwan of ESPN or whatever his name is said something about Daley Blind and 24 Hours.

Blind and De Jong.
Benatia and De Jong.

De Jong is a must.

Our number 1 priority should be to sign an experienced CB, to lead our defense. De Jong fills a need on the cheap and Blind would make for a very good utility player but we need to sell before buying him.

PS I think Bayern will get Benatia.

 

[K1LLER7]

Mm. Like Arnie says, it pisses me off when fans act like accountants. 64m is a lot, but we have the p so no worries

Its about time we actually used some of the money we all hear/read about.

Chevy will be happy. Should get some shirts selling.

.... United-GAF has spent six years laughing at City and now suddenly the rest of us are acting like accountants?

edit
Or you meant your own fans?

 

[CelticKnight]

Caulker, with the OAP's Ferdinand and Dunne in a back 3? I feel at least one of that lot will make a huge cock-up today.

Good to see Mutch getting the start.

Oh yea, United finally sign someone fans will be very excited about. And the fact that he gets #7 helps a lot with that

 

[Clegg]

Rio Ferdinand and Richard Dunne in the centre of your defence.

Christ

I didn't say the rest of you. I said football fans. As in, a portion of football fans, that follow all clubs

Crazy money. Undeserved IMO. But so was Torres' fee. Di Maria deserved 40m and Torres 15m tops at the time for me.

 

[Frank the Great]

United, please just sign Blind and leave De Jong alone. :-(

are you joining us in Milano for Milan-Juve?

Nah. I dunno where you are all from, but I'm from the US and don't have the time or the money for such a thing. I hope you guys have fun though.

 

[Manager]

Yeah I edited it in just after, figured.

It's the fans money in the end. TV-rights, shirts, gates, all fan money. And there are staff members that obviously do a shit job with their money.

Laugh all you want, but watch us bugger it up.

 

[Bold One]

United flexing their muscle, just need to win today and get the momentum going

 

[Yurt]

It doesn't matter how much you pay for someone like Di Maria

Most of all because it ain't your money innit

 

[GorillaJu]

I hope Marie flops hard for United. I hate his ugly mug.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

I think you forgot how good he was at Liverpool.

If people invest emotions when their team lose or win, why isn't it that weird that people invest emotions in the club's investments?

A lot of Leeds fans were outraged when Bates kept putting "their" money on restaurants and hotels, shows that it's just not all about transfers alone. It's the same with signing shitty players for high fees.

 

[Vivalaraza]

It's weird how we've come full circle.

I remember the heady days of 2002, sitting in German next to Arse-GAF foetuses arguing about how Wiltord for £12m was crazy so stfu about Ruud for £19m.

And it's come back around.

What a time to be alive. Again.

 

[sohois]

I don't understand why Dembele isn't playing, and why Chadli hasn't been replaced by anyone else for Spurs.

 

[Kill3r7]

Crazy money. Undeserved IMO. But so was Torres' fee. Di Maria deserved 40m and Torres 15m tops at the time for me.

Overpaid for sure but he fills a need and United was not in a position to bargain. I wish we had used the money last year to sign Strootman or Vidal instead of Mata/Fellaini but whatever.

Ladyman saying basic fee is €75m with €10m add-ons.

So £59m basic fee rising to about £68m.

Ian Ladyman @Ian_Ladyman_DM · 3m
In order for Real to receive all that extra 10m, Di Maria would probably have to win 100 metre gold at the next Olympics. #mufc

Errr..
