Ronaldo told Di Maria how important no.7 is for United.
With di Maria?
Loads on here were saying di Maria was one of Madrid's best player last season. He wasn't even inconspicuously brilliant, he was so obviously one of Madrid's most important players last season.
Done dealio.
I wonder why..hmmm
The creativity of Januzaj and di Maria on the wings is mouthwatering, a front five of Januzaj, Rooney, Mata, RvP and AdM is terrifying, the best part is the way they'll be able to interchange and switch during a game to create unpredictability and gives us limitless formation options, as we could comfortably play a 4-3-3, 4-2-3-1 and a 3-5-2. All we need now is two good CMs to supply them and we're laughing!
That's kinda odd. I know he loves United and all, but he really encouraged a player to leave the team he's in, thereby weaken them to strengthen United?
This is happening isn't it.I'm never been happier with a transfer.Fecking love you Ronaldo, absolute legend.All we need now is a decent midfielder.
If he was that bothered he could always come back himself... I'm sure Di Maria would be OK to wear 9...
Chelsea ?
Too excited. I want this deal done before tuesday!
good sarcasm
what im saying is where is he going to play on the pitch. or will LVg play a 424??would be nice if he signed for us
But Madrid haven't really been weakened. Di Maria played in midfield and they replaced with Kroos. Not a bad replacement, one of the best midfielders playing in his position.That's kinda odd. I know he loves United and all, but he really encouraged a player to leave the team he's in, thereby weaken them to strengthen United?
On the Liverpool forum they're saying he will struggle with the physicality of the premier league.
As @Balu said, if I'm not mistaken, what's the point of a 3-man defense if you need a holding midfielder though? You must have a Sammer-esque defender in this setup who is capable and willing to step up to midfield in possession. Though Herrera-Di Maria is still very light-weighted, but with the right setup in the back it shouldn't be that much of a problem (and it wouldn't be with Herrera-Vidal's partnership, which was better suited to us, of course
).I can't think of any defender who is capable of that role today though, Silva, maybe? But we won't get him, of course.
The Chelsea fan has this idea that nobody here rated Di Maria particularly high before he was linked to us. It's a quite ridiculous overstatement, even though some did, and still do, feel that there are other players who should be higher than him on our priority list.
Watching Gillette Soccer Saturday earlier today, opinion by Merson/Le Tissier/Phil Thompson and Charles Nicholas was United won't make the top4 again.
You look at United's potential side though and top players - De Gea/RVP/Rooney/Januzaj/Mata/Di Maria/Herrera/Kagawa that is as good as any elite club in Europe, certainly in the Premier League. We might be average in defense and center midfield, but top players like that can easy put us in the top4, especially with a predator like RVP in your side.

Nah he wanted him to stay but after realizing he was leaving he recommended United apparently.
If we get AdM, sign Strootman in January when he's proved his fitness and manage to keep Shaw and Rafael fit and on continuous development, the team really starts to take shape.
ADM to play the Robben role, Rooney to gradually play the Sneijder role but with with more legs and energy (and the captaincy to keep him happy).
Cadena Ser reporting it. As reliable as you're going to get.
It's happening isn't it? I miss the little fella already.
United is on the up with these kind of buys. You'll enjoy watching him tear up other teams for fun. I'm sure he'll make your whole team play better and more direct too.
I like United, so I'm glad he'll probably join you instead of PSG.
Good luck Angel! Thanks for the memories!

My muppet dream signing was Di Maria and I've been saying that for awhile, just hope nothing goes wrong.
Cadena SER is more reliable than COPE right?
Its not really Di Maria wanted out of Madrid, so Ronaldo has just encouraged him to join us instead of PSG. Good work from Ronnie i say.That's kinda odd. I know he loves United and all, but he really encouraged a player to leave the team he's in, thereby weaken them to strengthen United?
Januzaj/Herrera arent top players (yet)
It's a difficult situation alright but I find it hard to see LVG naming Rooney the new captain just to see him dropped from the starting 11. It's going to be impossible to satisfy everyone that's for sure but as long as he finds the best system I don't care who will moan.
Looks like @RedBistro's Di Maria headline is going to become a reality.
Di Maria probably already said he was leaving so in swoops agent Ronaldo to convince him to join his favourite club.What an absolute hero of a man and player.That's kinda odd. I know he loves United and all, but he really encouraged a player to leave the team he's in, thereby weaken them to strengthen United?
I think its the other way around.
I refuse to believe this, a world class player joining Manchester United even If we have no Champions League football and according to many "a fading force"
feck em I say. DI MARIA DI MARIA DI MARIA!!
feck em I say. DI MARIA DI MARIA DI MARIA!!
Would pressing that order button make me the king of muppets?
On the Liverpool forum they're saying he will struggle with the physicality of the premier league.
That's if anyone can even get near him, surely will be amongst the fastest players in the Prem and easily the best winger by a mile.This is surely happening.
Finally a signing that really makes a statement. A real world class player.
Shopping at the top of the market.

Just told my missus I could have a new angel by next week.
Double deal... Ronnie comingThat's kinda odd. I know he loves United and all, but he really encouraged a player to leave the team he's in, thereby weaken them to strengthen United?

Yes because you could get the same thing from the far east for 1/10th of the price!
