I am the striker!

parrotibaba:
Guys the striker is going to be a player to substitute Rooney so he won't be dat of a star... Charlie Austin maybe?

nothing like that. so if Ronaldo or Messi is up for a transfer here, Woody will let is pass cuz Rooney must start? Rooney himself knows nobody gives a damn if he stays or goes or grumbles or wraps 2-in-1; whoever comes in to compete with Rooney, Hernandez & Wilson will be aware he also has 1/4 chance of grabbing the lead role.

i read somewhere of Cavani asking for assurances he will play no. 9 regularly, maybe he thinks he's transferring to Napoli {altho i think it's just rumor}.

The surprise striker might be Charlie Austin

We don't sincerely care who the striker is or if its Perpetual Nkwocha. What we need is a striker who would be a plus to the club, give us goals, work tirelessly and help us win trophies.



Personally I am tired of waiting and making guesses.

LVG philosophy will still curb his goals.

Probably Coogar

Pace and PAWA guaranteed

Lahm: Muller to Utd possible.

Another plucking from Dayo's team is close

The standout candidate and the man to lift United from possible title challengers to outright favourites. The speedy Frenchman enjoyed a fine debut season for Atleti, scoring 22 goals in 37 league appearances and 27 in total. Meek opponents used to be defeated in the tunnel when they faced United, and if they saw the likes of Bastian Schweinsteiger, Angel Di Maria, Rooney and Griezmann staring at them before kickoff, that feeling of dread will come again. United scout David Friio once claimed Griezmann lacked power, but ingenuity prospers in the Premier League, not just brawn. His £43m release clause can be found down the back of a sofa at Old Trafford, such is their wealth these days.

That's how one of our possible striker tragets' release clause was describe to being met by Manchester United.

All the News media have gone into a frenzy of listing possible striker targets since Van Gall said at the press conference earlier that a 'Surprise striker' is in the works and with everybody in the world already linked to us, the press are trying to find people who have rarely been mentioned. I can confidently say a new striker is coming to Man Utd. The odds on Ibrahimovic dropped not long ago. Could it be him? But we all know the history behind Van Gaal and Ibra and They are both Ego maniacs. Would be a disaster!

Manchester United be causing a frenzy...Haters, hold tight to your best strikers, we might just snatch him you know...
I see Bayern seeking the service of a private security firm to watch over Muller and Lewy...

Ladies and gentlemen.. . Meet our man

Cr7?? Haters will just commit suicide

I'm very certain we getting a top class centre forward

JayKayMaybachz:
I have a feeling CR7 is coming back

An agent confirmed it.. .. Thats why it's not in the media

What make you think Cr7 can/will work with/under LvG? I doubt it will happen.

Rooney will be the number striker this season.

I think a CB leader is of more pressing concerns now. I have said we don't need gazillion goals to win a game if we are solid @ the rear, coupled with hugging possession 70% of the time.

Adnan Januzaj has grown in stature & he's added some upper body muscles, abi na only me observe am ni??

parrotibaba:

Never under-estimate LvG. If he is looking for a 'mystery' striker to 'surprise' us,then it's obvious he doesn't trust Rooney will be the main striker. I'm suspect that 'mystery' striker to be Thomas Mueller.

coogar:
hahahaha
if rooney does not perform, he would be benched for the new striker. van gaal has shown he's ruthless as we have seen with di maria, falcao, RVP and valdes. he cares more about his reputation & philosophy more than anything else.

GBAM! That's what some United fans have failed to understand. Maybe they are blinded by the fact that Rooney is the captain.

He said his captain will always start.
Unless we strip rooney of his badge and give it to carrick, he'll always start.
This also the same reason we won't be signing any great striker nobody wants to waste his prime on our bench.
Rooney is not my first choice for our striker but he can deliver 20 goals and above.

@bolded,that's what I'm saying. Have you forgotten LvG? He doesn't care about face or who you are. Rooney being the captain means shít! He can strip the captaincy from Rooney and give to anyone. I won't be surprised if LvG gives Bastian Schweini the captaincy.

This Van gaal can inspire and infuriate @ the same time! What the _fuck does he mean dat Matteo darhmain will be the back up right back 2 antonio valencia? Valencia is the worst rightback in the top 10! Wtf?

Valencia is not as bad as you think. He still has pretty good stats.

My guy dis is why man u has fallen behind our mates in european football! All dis trial and error crap is rubbish! Stats? See how he killed us against everton, leicester and arsenal in the fa cup 2 name a few last season! Will real, barca, bayern or juve be experimenting wen dey have the real tin on the bench? Valencia can't cross, defend or dribble 2 save his life abeg! All he has is speed and back pass! Abeg dis season EVERYBODY shud play dia positions!

I couldn't agree more

altho what I think LvG mean is that Darmian has to displace the guy he met, which is actually true.

But, how good is Darmian really?

Val lacks the awareness of opponents around him and reason players ghost pass him to score. He should only be a backup.

But time will tell if we can trust Darmian.

Exactly. Valencia too now has to improve his game, which is logical enough.

GBR1:

Valencia has lost all instincts of a player. he can't cross, he can't dribble that's why he now relies on pace & pawa to fill in @ RB. how he suddenly lost all skills that made him once dreaded as a RW remains a mystery.

Very good! A 100 times better than valencia @ least!

Well LvG is right. The shirt is currently Valencia's and its up to Darmian to displace him. I'm not fan of Valencia but I dont have a problem with this approach. Darmian has to earn that RB shirt. He has come to a new country and a new league, he will need some time to adjust but he needs to know that he has to work very very hard and perform at a high level to gain his spot. i dont want anyone thinking they have an awoof shirt at Man utd.

LMAO! I trust you. You never disappoint me. I knew you will twist the comment again.

Even without reading SAF's comment we argued it here with you that the two season Rooney scored high goals were the seasons he lead our attack.

I could remember telling you that SAF will never trust Welbeck who just came back from a loan spell with the lead striking role. He'll always use him as the support striker to Rooney.

As for Chicha, he had 1478 mins (18 starts) while Rooney had 2838 mins (32 starts) which shows that Rooney played mostly as the lead striker in the 4 4 2 formation that was mostly used by SAF in that season. Whoscored also confirmed this but you kept on bringing articles from some journo and some games charts from Zonal marking. Zonal Marking that's being run by a single who only talked about selected few games.

How can you call that a political statement that he doesn't want LVG to buy a striker when:

1. We all know that we are now well stocked in all those other positions he's been used over the years.
2. Wayne Rooney is a privileged captain according to LVG. LVG didn't substitute him in some games he wasn't playing well last season.
3. "If Rooney is fit he must play" This simply means Rooney will be the first choice striker next season. Any striker we buy now is going to sit on the bench until Rooney stink the joint on a consistent basis.
4. Rooney also boldly said this 'So hopefully if I play up there again this season then I can score the goals. It is where I like to play and I am sure it is where I will play. It is where the manager and myself see my best position.'

Anyway, whether you twist it or not, the ORACLE have spoken. You cannot know Rooney more than Rooney himself. He specifically mention those two seasons we have argued here that he lead our attack. Whoscored and OPTA also align with our assertions.

You said in January 2014 that Chicha played in front of Rooney. Why are you changing MOUTH now?

So now you are saying Chicha who always isolated himself upfront from the other players, was our number 10? U try.

Welbeck was surely in front of Rooney. Zonal Marking has never got its players formation /position in wrong.
