Is he any good? No doubt we've got some experts on here...

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.

Is this the same team that are paying 96m euros for Bale??
His good but not better than Fellaini however he's a great passer.
The grit of Liam Miller, the vision of Kleberson, the hunger of Anderson and the ambition of Djemba-Djemba all rolled into one.
Pretty sure thats where he's been these last few weeks.
He has simmed his manager mode to see the true potential of all midfielder candidates. In years 2015 Herrera reaches 80+
Atleast we know our CEO is doing his research.
On a scale of Stefan Oakes to Muzzy Izzet... he's Steve Guppy.
Moyes is a well known FM fan, how does Herrera do in that?
Basically the summary seems to be that he's a talented young midfielder who can pass, tackle and likes to get forward. He's 6'0 tall and has reasonable aerial presence (at least in La Liga), he can also be a bit of a cnut.
Hang on, he's different to Fellaini? This may suggest we're after two midfielders or simply putting pressure on Everton and Fellaini.
And yeah he sounds amazon, Cina
Well then, why the feck are we worrying?
He wont be desperate. But he will want to play in the CL.(Bilbao arent in the Europa league this season). He is just gone 24. He only has to look at a player like Suarez to see how you cant end up being near 28 and have virtually no CL experience.
Bilbao wont sell to a Spanish rival. We are desperately in need of a CM player. No other club of similar stature to us offers him the same opportunity. He would be mad to turn us down.
He's the Spanish Patrick Vieira? Cool.
His long range shooting is only 10, while his marking is a shocking 9. It's off.
No, he's far too white for that comparison.
I'll also contribute the obligatory 'needs to bulk up' if he is to compete properly in the PL.
Exactly. I think the other top European clubs have always spent more than us but even some relatively mediocre clubs spend as much as us these days. Looking for bargains is great but it only gets you so far, if we have the financial muscle we have to be willing to use it.
Andersons can't be any worse. IM IN.
But why do you think this "release clause" is a flat fee?
Either all other clubs are mad and we're the only sensitive club remaining or else we're skint.
I fecking wish he would. If he was we'd be selling Rooney for £70m and have already brought in about 15 midfielders.
Sack Woody Sign Levy
I'm sure we do. La ligas quite a big league.
I've heard very good things about him. And he was brilliant against us. That's all I know.
So the president of Athletic Club has said that if we reach the clause and player wants to come here, they'll discuss. Seems fair enough. If we want that player we know what we need to do.
Yeah, I think it's our sensitivity. 'Hi, barca, can we have fabregas for 25m please? '
'No, feck off'
'Pretty please?'
'No, seriously feck off'
'Oh, god, I'm really sorry. Have a good day. Sorry again'
one day it will work Ed
We have saved a fortune on developing young players in the last few years eg Evans,Welbeck,Cleverley and buying up young talent on the cheap eg Smalling,Rafael,Fabio,Hernandez. Even the expensive youngsters like De gea,Kawaga,Jones,Zaha have or will turn out to be good business.
I think we should be allowed a couple of big money signings given how much Sir Alex has saved us.
Bid €31m.
Lads, I fell asleep. What has happened that prompted 10 extra pages?
FYI: Cock is cautiously out.
FYI: Cock is cautiously out.
Why do think it's not?
Hey mate. I know the answer to that question. I am just being political correct. That's all.
Looks like moyes is trying to keep the shape we have. Fellaini in the carrick role, herrera in the cleverley role. Would fit quite well
Just pay the extra 6 million. Don't do what Arsenal did with Higuain.
Taxes.
Don't do what Arsenal did with ________
Arsenal have apparently inquired about 12 Madrid players and not bid on any of them.
So, I mean, we're not that bad in the overall scheme of things.

jojojo said it in another thread this morning, Spanish papers have been reporting it.
Only on the incremental amount though.
He'd be a great signing for United. Brilliant player.
