Not been impressed by Fernandinho yet.it's early days but I can't see how you can be so convinced of his quality in the 3 odd games he's played.

How on earth is Rooney conscious from that despite seeing his skull there

New management brings the biggest changes so any tea. so with a manager cannot be said to not have many changes. I assume he said team not midfield

The team with the fewest changes is Arsenal.

All this is talk, rumours and conjectures. No facts. It's done the window has closed and it looked embarrassing but Fellaini is here.

Lets look forward to the actual football to be played. Just frustrating that we have to wait two weeks due to fifa's garbage scheduling.

r231: Manchester United complete the signing of FC Zurich teenager Saidy Janko for an undisclosed fee.



Who the Bleep is he

A fullback. Doesn't seem to be happy signing for us.

You guys are being unfair on Moyes considering the number of times Fergie has also used the conservative approach in games. Started 3 strikers against Chelsea and would have done the same if not for Rooneys injury v Liverpool. I honestly haven't seen a difference in our approach since Moyes took over. It might as well be Fergie still in charge from the team selections,(picking Giggs, not using Kagawa) to subs. We need to give Moyes a chance to navigate the difficult period, it was always going to be tough for any new manager. Mourinho was my first choice but can you imagine if we went to a match at a rival and played 4-6-0? The transfer situation has been farcical but again that seems to be more an issue with Woodward than Moyes. And I'm sure he'll learn. We might not win the title this year but I'm certain Fellaini improves the squad if a little pricey. But we have not overpaid under SAF before?

Khedira has confirmed we made a late bid for him last night.

Fact is none of our rivals look any better than we are so far this season.

Btw the Fabio in my post is the twin not the imaginary Contraeo

I think I would be happy if we gave this team a run for a few games

DDG

Rafa Rio/Evans Vidic/Jones Evra/Fabio
Carrick Fellaini
Nani Rooney Kagawa
RVP

debosky: Did y'all sign Coentrao or not?

Evidently not.

StarBoard: How so sir?
United just turned into a long-ball team.

Well no, Fellaini wouldnt be playing upfront for us. Like he was abit for Everton. Also don't forget most of his appearances where in central mid for Everton. He only play upfront as a stop gap for about a season when they were struggling upfront. There is no way this signing makes up a long ball team.

A few thoughts.
Woodward should be sacked
whether you agree or not, Fellaini improves our midfield.
Woodward should be sacked and probably sued for gross misconduct.

Cheers.

A few reports suggest fellaini and Baines are done deals.

Kongdobia gone to Monaco. Another one bites the dust.

elampiro: Is that your name? I was referring to a certain winger United bought some years back but he never lived up to bookmakers ratings.

Some of those waka pass players.

Dont mind me...

elampiro: Not true. This was like a school team. We lost possession so cheaply. Much of urgency without accuracy or maturity.

Im not going to get in pages of arguements on this. We'll just agree to disagree.

elampiro: I usually do not jump into conclusion about players.

Welbeck and Chicharito are players I am watching their development. Kagawa appears to be one of them too. If not for Kagawa's past record in Germany, I would have sent him to the league of Tosin, Obertan, Bebe, Macheida and co. But now you guys are making me feel he is a big guy who deserve a starting place. On facebook too, there is a division as to what he is capable of.

So I just sit don dey look first. But he was very poor in the preseason. That may already have made Moyes to form an impression about him.

Excuse me? What have I done?

Jones is so bad crossing from right back but unfortunately Valencia didn't Improve that part.

adebayo201: u sure? If so,gwd 4 arsenal oh

Some strong rumours suggesting it.

Seems like Arsenal are getting Ozil.

n0m0705: Is it just me? The was not that bad as you people are making it to be, it is actually an improvement from the chelsea match. THough not a good performance but united has not been good at anfield, it was also better than our Previous 3 matches at anfield. I won't castigate moyes base on this match, I am still watching him

Slow down, I'm pretty sure we won at Anfield last season.

Honestly this looked like a Fergie team and performance. I didn't see much difference. Even down to the subs.

Yep.

I'm more irritated by the fact Giggs started this match while Moyes just said he had to choose between Kagawa and Nani for one place on the bench than anything else.

elampiro: I am not even looking at result. There was no stability.

I have never watched Man United played this way. We couldn't retain the ball for more than 30 seconds.

Maybe you haven't been watching united play for long. We've ha many similar performances under Fergie. Especially at anfield.

Well that was an absolutely shocking performance.

Now Moyes will know the meaning of real pressure.

Giggs still starting games for us. He's forever a legend but he's just ruinning the team right now. Not his fault though. Moyes and Fergie are picking him for big games so..

Overall. Just an awful performance and it shows that we absolutely need signings. in the team.

Roll on next week.

Screwface: I have one very dependable source from Old Trafford telling me of our next tranfer plans.
Tomorrow morning, we'l make an official bid for Javi Martines of Bayern Munich. My United source tells me the dude isn't happy with his part-time role under Pep and is ready for a move to OT.

By noon, we expect to lodge in a tentative bid for Dem Ba ba after his seemingly fall-out with Mourinho.

Then the shocker, by late evening same day, an offer is to be made to Liverpool for the transfer of Steven Gerrad.

On Sunday morning, we expect to make a move for Totteham's out-of-favor left back, Benniot Assokoto.

Sunday afternoon, we'l follow up with a bid for Mesut Ozil of Real Madrid. And by evening, we are expected to make a tentative bid to Everton footbal club for Fellani.

Of course, non of this bids are expected to yield any fruit as this is just to make us seem busy in the transfer market.

We wish us all a fustrating few days ahead!

You missed out the bids for Messi and Aguero?

Don't want or need Ozil. Fellaini in and play Kagawa, Nani and januzaj and I'm happy.

afrodoc: u must have seen play.he was a major part of the athletic bilbao midfield that embarrassed us in the europa league 2 seasons ago.bigger things were expected of him subsequently even at d national level but the emergence of isco,ilaramendi
thiago and the poor season bilbao had last time out have pushed him to d sidelines.
a good passer of the ball, not as careful with as cleverley but more incisive also.
having said that 30million euro is over d top
i still dey siddon look sha

He didn't stand out like munain , martinez and Llorente then as I don't remember him in those matches.
