MrTA:
I'm not happy about the current options but that's just a personal thing. Maybe Jose can get more out of Darmian/Valencia/TFM.

who can we buy that will better the options available sef? i think that's the position we have the most covered in the squad. Valencia - Darmian - Varela the usual suspects. still have McNair - Jones - Mensah - Love - Smalling all can slot in there if injuries are extreme which is highly unlikely. i no even count Young gaan

For those that don't know bailey, he's a strong defender and part of the airtight defensive unit(alongside Victor ruiz)of villareal that propelled them to champions league footie last season although Their gaffer's tactics is part of the success of their sturdy defense.




He's still unknown to the footballing world and he's just 22 years of age.



I watched him play at the last afcon which his country (ivory coast) won.

make sense,
na decent right winger need now and then we can relax.

I understand we need a right winger and I think the management of the team are well aware seeing from our pursuit of Adam Ounas but are you okay with our midfield options?
Personally I think we need we a CM and an attacking midfielder if Mata is leaving...Bazoer and Pjanic are my picks...

Messi to join Zlatan at Man United


UNITED APPROACH BARCA FOR MESSI
Well, this summer’s transfer window is a little bit mental, isn’t it? Arsenal have been busy. Manchester City have made a big signing. Liverpool have acted quickly. And if you missed the news on Friday evening, the Gunners have made a £20m move for Jamie Vardy, and Manchester United are closing in on Zlatan.

United will not finish there. According to the Daily Mail, they have approached Barcelona twice in the past three weeks to ask of the availability of one Lionel Messi.

In what Adam Crafton dubs a ‘sensational move’, United are keen to discover whether Messi and Barcelona would be open to a deal, but only with a view to the club returning to the Champions League for the 2017/18 season.

Such a transfer would ‘smash’ the world-record fee Real Madrid paid for Gareth Bale, even though Messi’s deal at the Nou Camp expires in two years’ time. The Argentinean is thought to require ‘certain reassurances’ if he is to extend his stay in Spain. Crafton writes:

‘Sources close to Messi refused to rule out of the possibility of a move.

‘They admitted to Sportsmail that the player is increasingly ‘frustrated and hurt’ by the media circus in Spain that has surrounded a legal case investigating his tax affairs.’
The 28-year-old is currently undergoing trial for tax fraud, with a verdict expected to be delivered next week.

My problem with most African defenders is that they have pawa with little sense.

Messi will leave Barca and UCL to go play in Europa,

Quick, versatile, strong and good on the ball, Villarreal's Ivorian centre-back Eric Bailly possesses all the qualities to be the defensive pillar Jose Mourinho will construct his Manchester United side around.
Yet, a fee that could rise to €40million once again leaves questions to be asked about United's ability to get value for their seemingly endless wads of cash as Bailly cost Villarreal just €5.7m when he moved south from cash-strapped La Liga rivals Espanyol only 18 months ago.
The 22-year-old was bought to replace the then Arsenal-bound Gabriel Paulista. English viewers won't be surprised to know the Brazilian's presence hasn't been missed at the Madrigal, but Bailly's greater pace and strength make him far more suited to the rigors of the Premier League than Gabriel.

He was the key man in a Villarreal defence that kept 17 clean sheets in La Liga this season to secure fourth place as best of the rest behind champions Barcelona and Champions League finalists Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid.
Bailly's displays in the big games will have particularly impressed Mourinho -- who continues to keep a close eye on the talent La Liga offers despite the bitter end to his three-year reign at Real Madrid in 2013.

Villarreal were the only team to shut out Atletico twice over the campaign with Bailly at the forefront of both their 1-0 win at home and a 0-0 stalemate at the Vicente Calderon.
However, his standout display in a yellow shirt came against the newly crowned European champions in the match widely seen as that which sealed Rafael Benitez's fate in his short-lived reign as Real Madrid boss.
Again Bailly was brilliant and showed his versatility as he was deployed at right back to mark Cristiano Ronaldo and latterly Gareth Bale out the game despite suffering from a dislocated shoulder for much of the second-half as Villarreal ran out 1-0 winners.
It was no coincidence that he was absent as Villarreal's hopes of reaching a first ever European final were dashed as Liverpool ran riot in the second-leg of their Europa League semi-final last month.
Marcelino's men had kept five clean sheets in the seven European games Bailly played on their run to the last four, including a 1-0 win over the reds before he pulled up with a hamstring injury late on which ruled him out of the return-leg.

Most impressively of all, though, for a young defender Bailly has demonstrated a willingness and capacity to learn quickly from his mistakes.
His over-confidence on the ball was regularly exposed last season, most notably when Fernando Torres picked his pocket to give Atletico all three points at El Madrigal. Bailly still has the technical qualities that also saw him become a target for Pep Guardiola's revolution across Manchester at City, but also now has the savvy to clear his lines when necessary that Mourinho will appreciate.
His discipline has also improved. Back in October Marcelino uncharacteristically chastised one of his players in public after Bailly got himself stupidly sent-off just minutes into the second-half against Celta Vigo in a match Villarreal went onto lose 2-1.
The two yellow cards Bailly saw that afternoon took his tally to seven in just nine games to start the season. Yet, he hasn't been booked in his last 13 games stretching back to February.
Bailly's rise has been meteoric after a slow start to his career. As an African with no international experience he had to wait nearly a year for his work permit at Espanyol when arriving in Spain as a 17-year-old.
It took a further two years to break into the first team . Yet within four months of making his La Liga debut, he had secured a move to Villarreal and helped his country to the African Cup of Nations.
An ever bigger leap to the Theatre of Dreams awaits. Yet, the swagger he has shown against the world's best in La Liga suggests Bailly could be a fine first addition to Mourinho's plans to restore United to their former glories.

Good he wasn't in that defence against Liverpool else I for slap Jose

From the reports I'm reading, we're a step ahead of other suitors...Barca are focused on Umtiti, PSG are stocked in that department as is Madrid, Chelsea aren't interested so I think he is ours to lose...

This mischievous people are so quick to avoid ££ and quote amounts in €€€ so as to drive home their 'maga' agenda.
See how them dey even intentionally shroud the whole fee thing in mischievous ambiguity
The fact however that the initial fee is £19 With the rest as add-ons will be avoided like a plague.

United Fans should pray this doesn't happen to the Club under Mourinho!

We need one midfielder at least...I don't trust Bastian's fitness and as we all know Rooney blows hot and cold

Jose is tactically astute already

Torres has burned Vidic and Ferdinand before too though. I'm not sure there's much that can be said gained from that gif. All defenders make mistakes. I have no idea how good this chap is and that gif wont tell me.
