According to Sky sports manutd r currently not in the market for a defender ...bum!


PSG is expected to complete the signing of ADM for a reported €65m(euros). Also he has been ducked 2 weeks salary for missing the preseason tour (not that it matters anyway). United are expected to log a bid for Pedro in the coming weeks(personally I prefer we go for Griezman)

Blind is actually a very good defender.

His positioning, interception and tackling are top notch. His vision, ball control and passing abilities are superb.

Granted he's not very tall for a CB, but Cannavaro was a full 2 inches shorter and is widely regarded as one of the greatest CBs of the modern era.

I believe that LVG intends to utilise him as a ball playing centre back that could step into midfield when his team has possesion, and this could work very well.

The major downside to this plan is Blind's lack of 'substance'. Just imagine Lukaku, Benteke or Bony catching him one on one. Or Costa..that one na die.
baba u just said my mind ,I think LVG was looking for a ball playing left footed defender since last season n at a time it was Hummels but he didn't want to leave Dortmund. Blind played the CB role in last year's world cup a couple of times hence the reason why LVG was keen to try him out there ,the downside of blind is his physicality as u rightly pointed out ,he needs a bully to partner him in defense.

I'm not sure why we should be looking to sell anyone now who's not Evans & maybe Jones.
we have only 2 senior CF, we should be looking for another.
we also have only 2 senior CB as far as I'm concerned, we should also be looking @ that.
we don't really hv a choice on dat matter now do we? Both players want to leave n I say let's sell them n get adequate replacement immediately rather than holding on to them.

Guys no need to panic ,this is preseason although we hv more pressing concerns.

- We need at least a CB n not just any CB ,a leader n it could hv been Ramos but since his close to signing a new deal with Madrid(like I told u guys b4) ,we need to go for another CB (personally I suggest we get 2). This position is d position dat I hv said we should rectify since Moyes's season in OT. Had it been that we had 2 solid CB's ,d worst this match could hv ended was a draw. Sometimes attacks flounder n u need your defense to bail u out, other times a strong defense is d foundation of a successful attack.


- We should sort out our transfer dealings so as to focus on preparing for the new season as a good start is necessary. If De gea is desperate to return to Madrid ,den like I hv always said b4 ,let's sell him n get a replacement ASAP. We should also finish d Di Maria transfer n get a replacement for him n finally conduct our remaining transfer dealings quickly cos d season kicks off in 2 weeks time.

Enough of this "ikedia hazard" crap talks. Everybody knows that he is not at the level of certain players ... yet. But he is a talented player nonetheless n any team won't think twice b4 going for him if he is in d market. You don't really judge a midfielder by d number of goals he scored but by his contributions to d team as regards to his specific role(s) ,Andres Iniesta is regarded as one of d greatest midfielders in d world, how many goals did he score in the last 3 seasons again? but he is integral to the team, he contributes to the goals whether by his dribbles or his chance created n d same can be said about hazard. I think he contributes immensely to d Chelsea team ,I think it's there for all to see whether you like it or not.Remove him from the team n watch them struggle ,he can be likened to many game winners in many teams. The fact that he doesn't score a lot of goals doesn't mk him mediocre ,it's just d team n d role that he's meant to play.
Not long ago ,he was d hottest property in d market ,a player of average ability wouldn't hv been coveted by that many clubs.Is he going to remain at Chelsea for long? highly doubt it. Is he going to be the best player in d near future? Maybe or maybe not. Remember a certain Luis Nani was seen as d best thing after cr7 when he showed his talent now he is slugging it out at fenerbeche.

You remember the story of the three mystery lawyers in Spain in 2013? That is how ridiculous your club has become every transfer season.

Every time I come on this thread, I end up laughing endlessly.

It really must be heart wrenching to be a ManU fan for the next 30 something days of this transfer window.

Imagine, Arsenal does not even need a GK, yet we bought Cech. Chelsea upgraded or even downgraded (time will tell) by buying Begovic. Our beloved ScumTwats decided to go for a backup who is a backup to Arsenal GK backup. cheesy

From a business point of view, I know for certainty ManU will never let De Gea run down his contract without having to sell him off. And this is the same club coogar was saying every player in the world wants to play for the ManU brand? grin
so Chelsea fans troll n dis A-holes also join? Ur club is an affront to football as a whole ,imagine winning the Emirates cup(ur trophy) for the first time in 5 bloody years!! grin You should be ashamed of being an AsSnal fan.


Just checked ur cemetery-thread n I saw u lot celebrating d Barclay's Asian Trophy as an achievement with one I'd!ot (or was it u?) claiming that cech has won the same number of trophies (how can u compare preseason trophies to the real deal?) at AsSnal that he won at Chelsea in 2 years, forgetting that he won d Carling cup n d league trophy barely last season!! grin grin

LVG-Ashley Young is not Neymar

I know he wanna come out as tough,brutal and an interesting coach, but not at the expense of the confidence of a guy who gave everything last season...

Wait,didn't he bench Angel for Ashley younghuhhuhhuh?? this bro is not to okay
why r u guys taking what he said out of context? This is what he said...


“We look for more creativity. Now we have
Wayne, Mata, Depay, Young, Januzaj, Wilson,
Herrera. Young has had a fantastic season but he
is not a Neymar and we have to compete with
that kind of class.”
This has in no way downplayed Ashley young's contributions to d team. He is not in d same calibre as d likes if Neymar ,Reus ,Mueller ,James, etc. The 2nd n third sentences highlighted his praise for Young ,the last sentence speaks of his expectations of d kind of players he wants in other to compete with the world's best n Ashley Young is not going to get us dia. I think he said d plain truth in his way (we all know dat Aloysius struggles with English)

Are you kidding me?

Begovic was no 1 at Stoke and widely regarded as one of the better keepers in the league.

Romero has been a professional backup for the last 3 seasons, and has been without a contract for the last 2 months after being released by Sampdoria.

His appearance at the WC and Copa final was only because he had the forwards to fire his team through.
what r u trying to get at? dat LVG made a wrong signing? He is a backup goalie to de gea, he has experience (both the world cup n d copa) n he was gotten for free so what's the problem?

Pietrorico actually called it from the get go.

Even before Coogar.

I think ADM is far better than we saw here, but somewhere along the line couldn't be arsed to turn up anymore.

If you dig deep, you might find that there may have been an agreement between PSG and ADM as early as last September.

Does it make sense to you that PSG are signing this guy for 40 mill+ and higher wages on the back of a poor injury-hit season?

Me neither.
I think u r right ,he chose PSG n could hv gone there if they were FFP free ,it would mk sense dat PSG was his backup plan should he fail at united. Jorge Mendez is having a laugh in one bar in Paris.

He would have stayed if he were guaranteed regular starting appearances. But we know that is not possible for now.

I read too, Argentina national team coaches said something like Gaal treatment of Di Maria negatively affected the rythm of his game.

However, if I were a world class footballer, I wonder what on earth would make me play in France when I have the opportunity of playing for a club as Manchester United in an excitement league as EPL.
how can he be guaranteed regular starting berths when he had an under par season? Every player in d team with d exception of de gea n Rooney ,sat on d bench at one point in time during last season so what's d fuss? Let's hope he wouldn't chicken out of PSG when it gets tough over there. At the moment ,I'm content with Mata handling the right wing should we not go for another signing in dat department.
