Yeah, good point. Altough it isn't very likely we'll bring in another big name. Even for Perez, that would be a bit much.
James, Kroos and Navas is not a bad summer. No complaints here.
Angel Di Maria | £59.7M fee agreed I Maybe tomorrow...or the day after...

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to talk about United's dreadful home defeat at the hands of Big Ange's Tottenham Hotspur. Should this have been the end of Ten Hag? How long does he actually have left? And does Nik finally want ETH out?!

Wait till you see the summer we end up having.
I can't wait to see that new contract for Fellaini.
True, and if Falcao arrives Di Maria has to be sold, which immediately reduces the number of goals Falcao (and Ronaldo) will score. That's not just a money thing, they've run out of non-EU player positions.
However, I think if Falcao was going there, Perez would not be gambling on selling Di Maria this late in the window. In fact, I don't believe that he would have bought Navas (using his last non-EU place) if Falcao was really in the plan. Of course if the Falcao price drops enough Muppet Perez might find it all too tempting.

You guys have the ultimate flavour of the month signing philosophy. Its just astounding how only 3 Fifa World Player of the Year have not played for Real since 1996. Those 3 are Ronaldinho, Messi and Rivaldo. They were Barca players which stopped Real from buying them (not like it stopped them from buying Figo though...)

Why is this thread so active today ?
Thought there was some news for a minute.

Because he just played his first preseason game with us and was amazing.
I wish you would sell to us.
If we were to sell him I too hope he goes to United instead of PSG as I don't watch the French league.
Well the fee was always going to be the problem with him. They really don't need to sell and he is a worldclass football player. If we want him, a fee around the 50-60 million euros range will be needed imo.
The numbers don't work 
That's what happens when you desperately need players.

He's easily one of the top 10 (arguably top 5) best players in the world at the moment, I'd expect him catch 50m at the very least!

They never do for United.
Numbers do not work. Good to see that drivel about being able to break the world transfer record wasn't just a load of old pony then.
Let's be honest, the numbers don't work! But why don't we just do everyone a favour and either pay up or move on.
Shit or get off the pot Woodward.
So £50m pound for a 26 year old who is probably in the top three wingers in world football. Scandalous how dare they.
"We are willing to break the transfer record if we want a player" Ed Woodward July 2014
Woodward wanted to pay £50m for Cavani to be his marquee signing .
And won't pay the same for Di Maria who is miles better.

Surely Di Maria will be able to get a CL club?
I recon he is probably after top wages too, maybe Rooney level
A post based entirely on speculation and conjecture. Well done
Woodworm was talking about football manager 2014
What's he on at Madrid? They're forcing him out, match it and he should be grateful.
Mitten and Taylor said we were after Cavani and were willing to pay £50m for him.
A game of Chess is being played out between Utd and Madrid over Di Maria says Guillem Ballague.
£60k allegedly. Or half an Ashley!
Jesus. Even with our tax rates we must be able to sort something out.
Really?
Initially, when the video was showing properly, I thought it was Forest Gump running out of the stadium?
You'd hope so.
All the reports indicate that we're the only ones in for him. The oil clubs look to have their hands tied and so can't blow us out of the water with 400k a week.
What's the reason for Madrid selling him?
Did Edd tell you he is after top wages too?
Don't know how true it is, but apparently Di Maria wants a pay hike which Perez is not willing to give him hence Di Maria wants out.
