With this signing we've already gone from seeing a midfield 3 of Carrick, Fellaini and Mata to Carrick, Herrera and Mata. I still can't believe it, 2 Spanish lads in our midfield.

Mata loves it.
He loves a through ball
Herrera, whoa.
Moyes gave him the fear.
So he said "i'll wait a year"

Fantastic news. But we mustn't stop there in the midfield department. We need to sign another quality CM too.
Announced while the NYSE was open I believe? So we can put that myth to bed.
Mata, Herrera and De Gea - the three amigos!
Let's sign some German and Dutch players too!
Herrera, uh oh uh
Herrera, uh oh uh
He comes from Basque Country
F*ck your buyout fee!

Racist.
We need to sign someone that will be able to succeed Carrick now and our midfield will be complete!
Indeed, turns out these things get announced whenever the hell they feel like it.
Feck me, turns out there is some football on too!
The pic with Sir Bobby is brilliant! Can't wait to see Ander next season.
Someone on Reddit translated his video interview:
Delighted, that is a very promising start to the Van Gaal era!
Absolutely delighted with this, especially after last year. I felt so sorry for the lad, so he must be absolutely buzzing right now.
Welcome to the club Ander.

Feels weird, this feeling of optimism. I've missed it.
He's won me over, is he married by any chance?
It's class isn't it? from Moyes and Fellaini to Van Gaal and Herrera...
Bless him. Probably kind of relieved there's no chance of playing against them next season.

We couldn't have asked for a better start to his reign. Central midfield has been our biggest weakness for around 5 years or more now. At last we've bought somebody worthy of stepping into the shoes of scholsey.
Better late then never though.
Don't know that much about him as a player, but I've got confidence in his personality. Everyone we've heard and seen points to him having the right attitude.
Absolutely buzzing over this signing, De Gea, Mata and Herrera the 3 amigos haha
Nice one..... How much more optimistic are we all feeling this close season to last?
With Van Gaal managing a revamped team, Giggs as assistant, this kind of signing to add to the now settled Juan Mata.
A few more exciting potential signings around the corner, the improving Januzaj, Van Persie etc...
Cant wait for the new season.

Great news. Just find the guy a midfield partner and we instantly turn a shite midfield into a very good one.
Brilliant news - united look as though they mean business...
I'm not sure, but you better get there quickly!
Reminds me of Mata a bit, seems to be a sensible lad. Happy to have them in the team.
Made sure to get the AON in the picture 
Two Spanish midfielders and a Dutch coach.
Jizzzzzzzzzzz

Welcome Ander!
This summer is already looking better than the last one. We have a midfielder who will ideally make a difference right away. He is very good with the potential to be class. Let's try and develop him into something special.

Yep, we can do with a CB now I feel... I was warming to the idea of Vermaelen. I think we could do with a leader, lot of young players there now and after offloading the heart of the defence this summer we could really do with top defender in there now!
Exciting times!
How quickly things change.
