redrus Posted July 13, 2015 Author Share Posted July 13, 2015 Between Depay, Darmian, Schweini and Schneiderlin, I'm over the moon, and to suggest that going for quality at a good price is wrong, and that we should have gone for overpriced and unproven, is preposterous. Especially when you're speaking of Pogba, at £71 million. [emoji23] redrus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmine Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 (edited) 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. Anyone else notice that Carmine seems to be cuddling up to United now. LFC so absolutely dreadful at the mo that even the second-string admirers are deserting in droves. Guess he thinks they are a better bet than Citeh Are you really that bored? Have you any idea how childish you sound?!!! Actually, i just say it as i see it. And if you don't agree with that last post of mine then i'm afraid my you, yous a bit of a plonker Edited July 14, 2015 by carmine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You bought into Ferguson's siege mentality that he created and very cleverly i might add. His poxy us against the world strategy really worked and from then on it was just a building on United fans massaging their own sense of self importance which i see you still embody. I didn't mention his 25 years of success. Frankly i didn't think i needed to as we all know what he achieved. But, if you think that my insinuations that he let a player currently valued at 70m go on a free three years ago was a massive mistake is churlish then you my friend are an even bigger fool than i already thought you were. And for the record, Pogba was very vocal about his stay in an interview i read and thought Ferguson had something personal against him and was freezing him out. Thats what he saidMaybe Pogba was lying because Ferguson never ever made it personal with anyone did he!!!! And he is such a soft centered character without a ruthless streak. You should have given Pogba and Moyes more time. Are you going to bleat on about ABU's now? Edited July 14, 2015 by carmine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carmine Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 He really should have been given more time. Who? Cleverley? Well if they had given Pogba a chance they'd be 70m better off and wouldn't have had to fork out for replacements. But i think Peter knows that, bless!!! Moyes was doing just as good a job as van Gaal having spent 150m less. Like i said yesterday. They qualified the top four largely because of a dismal Tottenham defense and even the daft 352 that van Gaal demanded couldn't scupper things. btw, mate, even Beverly Cleverly is a better player now. Now you wouldn't have thought that possible would you!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All good signings so far, Buy a good striker and keep DDG and its a very good window indeed.

Sparkles Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Saw the whole game through www.Goal.UK.com livestream. Different United teams in each half. Periera was the stand out.Anyone who saw him last year wouldn't doubt he has the talent to go a long way.Having said that he needs to go out on loan not sit in the stands. Not a lot of flowing football in the game, not helped by the opposition making numerous changes around the 60 min mark and they only played 1 minute of injury time.Probably just as well as United were a bit under the pump at that stage. Morgan,Matteo & Bastien showed their class and De Pay glimpses of what could be.He is built like a tank ,strong legs and don't think the physical side of the game will worry him. In fact I have an ex Dutch team mate, and friend, who watched all his home games last year and his advice to me was don't expect too much but he's got all the makings of a top player,loads of potential and a good work ethic.He played part of the game as a striker but looked more comfortable on the flanks I am sure LVG will bring in another striker and depending if they sell another defender (Evans ? ) maybe a centre back but not lets forget Smalling, Jones, McNair are improving and defenders don't peak until they are at least 25 and they are far short of that.McNair in particular was down the right flank every chance he got probably as instructed by LVG.. Good hit out and no injuries ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post MrRed Posted July 24, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted July 24, 2015 MrRed must be laughing his socks off I would think! MrEd and the rest of them will be back if United make any sort of title challenge. Only Nev and Rus toughed out the dark, ginger times. Never been away always tune in to cartoon time with you Carms ......is Pogba worth 60 mill or 70 mill by the way? If you care to look back and read my posts when Fergus and Gill left i said it would take us around 3 years to recover we are on schedule as i see it. As for United at the moment it seems Woodward has grown some balls and is playing Madrid at there own game now nibbling away at Ramos and also still trying for Ronaldo whilst demanding decent money for our goalie who i think will still leave before the deadline,can see some deal being done there but it will benefit us if it does. Defensively we are a very young side and the experience these guy got last year was good but maybe one old head similar to Bastien the pig in there will no doubt be an advantage especially in the Champions League. Midfield is chockablock now and if we keep Di Maria and buy Pedro i will be happy! at least give Maria one more season ....Rooney going back up top is great as he does score goals when played as a centre forward,all in all not a bad first season for Van Gaal we did qualify for Europe and we had a terrible start to the season especially injury wise so hey ho all is good. It is worth noting that i did say i was concerned with how Van Gaal started at United with his overly friendly press conferences.....seems Fergie has had a word now and there is a dramatic change in the way he handles the press very off hand which is the best way with the media vultures and the whole circus that surrounds them.Also a strong but correct decision to let Van Persie go shows there is no sentiment with him he just needs to remember his players names better! A Perrira is going to be a top class footballer hope he gets the chance to prove it no wonder Ashley Young is struggling with getting a better new contract. Anyway boys once a Red always a Red 2 weeks and counting bring on the yids! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
