nev Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Schneiderlin has signed, I am over the moon with this signing, and to think he us classed as a homegrown player. What a transfer window it has been for us, midfield sorted for years to come, schwiensteiger brought in to add leadership what we have been lacking.

If we get 3 years, the team with his leadership will be in better shape than we have been for a long time, teams just walked through us last season, this season we have corrected that and having schwiensteiger there on or off the pitch will add leadership we have been lacking.

SantiSuk Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Probably a good combo of buys, but can't help feeling it shows how far lower the bar has dropped at the Theatre of Dreams in recent seasons.

BangrakBob Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 So schwienstiger is signing for us, a few years late, but even at 30 he is a excellent buy and just what we need.Couldn't get Schneiderlin then?Where does that leave Carrick, best player aside De Gea last season? Have heard Schneiderlin is signing tootoo, just a case of agreeing the fee, terms with the player already agreed. Really? I heard they aren't bothering any more now that they've got Steinlager.

They just need to get a world class manager and they should be back in the frame big time! I know Van Gargle has a good history, but he looked clueless at times last season, even allowing for the usual bedding-in/getting-to-know justifications.

evadgib Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 (edited) Schweinsteiger's girlfriend is Ana Ivanovic, the hottest tennis player on the planet. Which begs the question: how can an ugly git like him pull such a stunner (it can't be for the money; she's loaded)?Reminds me of this memorable exchange during an interview with Peter Crouch:(Interviewer) " What would you be if not a footballer?"

Maybe you would like to expand on how LVG looked clueless. Its not an excuse but a fact that United topped the table in the injury count and the least affected were Chelsea.......Source www.physioroom.com I seem to remember there were 25 different centre back combinations due to injuries. You don't suddenly become bad manager.That over used, tabloid phrase "world class manager' makes me laugh,care to give us the "guidelines" that elevates you to such a position Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevieH Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 united look to be strengthening with purpose this summer. assuming they keep de gea and if they bring in someone like cavani to replace van persie their squad looks like it'll be in pretty good shape. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmine Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Most people i spoke to last season thought that United qualified in the top four despite of LvG. Persisted in a 352 that didn't work due to unsuitable players and continued to try and ram square pegs in round holes to try a prove he knew best. Left out Mata and Herrera for far too long, was hopeless with Di Maria, had no idea how to get the best out of him....i could go on, but your qualified in fourth nonetheless. Your away contingent obviously thought he was clueless too. They seemed to clearly understand what he didn't but van Gaals first season was a constant reminder that you can't teach a (very stubborn) dog new tricks. He takes very little credit for the top four finish. More credit should go to De Gea and the fifth placed side, Spurs for their thoroughly abtsmal defense which made your top four possible. I will concede he did atlas improve one player. Young. Bravo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carmine Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 He's given a 30 yo a three year contract....SAF had anyone over 30 on one year deals..... True, but in Uniteds defense, Sterling cost City more than Schweinsteiger, Sneiderlin and Darmien put together. And in that you also have proven players and a wealth of experience in the German which will be invaluable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the lovely days of Mr. Moyes are very distant in the rear view. For all the grief he received from many LVG appears to have righted the ship as he was hired to do. A pity that !
