50 million for De Gea sounds fair.
What's this stupid news about United wanting Pique. Why are rumour stories so stupid sometimes.
Also what's this I've heard about PC Master Speed Based Cardiovascular Sports Term being banned from GAF.

I don't understand how there are people that enjoy peppermint in their chocolate.
Just disgusting.
It's like adding nutella on top of a pizza(with all its toppings already on)
Makes no sense.

Italians are weird and so are people obsessed with chocolate.
A brave comparison, I love it.
That said, that York chocolate thing is awful and I don't understand how people eat them. Tastes like toothpaste but worse and they buy them. Why?

...hate me...
Go away.

the greatest chocolate companion
:loooooooool I can't believe this
it's only fair that the reaper should be allowed to come and take another life.
loooool
Like, writing the words "PC master race" in a random thread like this won't get you banned.
Going into the Witcher Wild Hunt thread when it comes out, then posting a pic of the PC version and saying: "LOLOLOLOL enjoy your inferior version of the game console peasants, meanwhile I'll be here with the Glorious PC Master Race" most likely will.
It's a dumb, tired meme that had only a couple of funny uses anyway, so why would you be using it if not mockingly anymore?

That's an easy one.
Coq signing that contract, like a new signing. Arsene doing well this transfer window I see.
Might as well ask: Which of these 2 strikers is in better form right now? And you have your answer.
A bit of a daft question if I'm being honest.
Falcao. It's still an idiotic question.
Was beating City really that much of a tipping point for you ?
it's only fair that the reaper should be allowed to come and take another life.
Lol!!
Every month makes Falcao's case look worse. I bet clubs are more wary after Torres. He never came good.

Has Salah left yet?
Have we signed Cuadrado yet?

I dont understand this.
Falcao has been good. He hasn't gotten the goals but that's mostly due to our shit midfield situation. His play on and off the ball has been great.
What most Manchester United fans are wondering though if he's worth 60 million, which is an absurdly high price with his age and the fact there's still a lot of positions we need fixing.
It's not like Torres who had some fantastic assists coming his way and him completely flunking it.

Honestly.
Messi is just impossible.
Wilbur, link that Messi is impossible article asap

Can't wait when he's 34 and being played more as a midfielder.
I'll bet he'll even be Xavi-esque in that position.
Shouldn't bother anymore tbh. For anyone else who has actually watched the matches it's obvious what he has contributed (mostly in creating spaces, chances, assists and holding the ball well) which, as you correctly point out, is not in line with his price tag and disappointing for his role (still better ratio that RVP innit), but perfectly in line with the mediocre job everyone else has been doing due to several factors, including someone like Di Maria, who has missed sitters too or disappears at spots, has been riddled with injury and has been played out of position among other many team failings.
But surely, give it enough time and someone will come out and ask who would you rather have in your team, Cazorla or Di Maria. At least Arnie will back you up with the correct answer.
Which we all know it's Can or some such 
These are the exact things that people would say about Torres, or Liverpool fans would say about Carroll, you know, their defensive headers or off the ball play and so forth.
And when you're dealing with an older player it's very unlikely to be a case of a temporary decline and more likely that they are on a permanent downward slope, regardless if Falcao can get some form in the second half of the season

And Giroud's hold up play is underrated.

I would agree with you both if we weren't playing
a) 3-5-2
b) a fucking weird strat with Di Maria as a striker which hasn't really worked well.
Both haven't had any of our players playing at their best. I still think he's great. I think he still can score, but I don't think we should buy him if he's 60 million.

United's season
(and Falcao's knee)
We haven't even started in on Di Maria being inconsistent.

Di Maria always was inconsistent
Anyway I think a lot of us agree Ozil is great, but just wasted on the wing. Give him the no. 10 role and he'll be fantastic.

Too early to call Falcao a flop. IMO he will definitely turn it up, assuming Gaal will use a formation that suits him.
