pure bitterness and denial.He's the most German man in the history of Germans.
We should get Robben while we're at it. Well actually we probably shouldn't considering his age, inuries and Di Maria. But then again we really should at least make a bid, and try really hard for Mùller too. We should attempt do to Bayern what they did to Dortmund.
I really think people are underestimating exactly how massive a signing this is for us.
Skills aside, this is a guy who can bring leadership, belief, direction and mentorship to our team. He can bring a sense of calm to a shakey back four, and slowly instill a sense of confidence within them.
He will bring balance to the force.

"Schweinsteiger has/had problems with his ankle. That is the story since 2 or 3 years. He had surgery in the summer break in 2013 after the Treble Season and because of that came late into the season 2013/14. But he still had problems during the whole season and they got him through the World Cup with pain killers.
After the World Cup Müller-Wohlfahrt ordered a bigger rest for him because of that - so it could really heal. That is why he did not start into the training again until mid or end of October.
Everything fine until somewhen in March when he got kicked badly in the Dortmund match - and had to be rested for a match or 2. But in addition to that he had a real bad flu that took two weeks."

Honestly it doesn't sound like he's too prone to getting injured so I think people should worry less

That would be Oliver Kahn.
That my friend is Stefan Effenberg.
Bastian is an intelligent player with tons of experience and skill. If players like Herrera who hasn't played in CL much less win it and has not been capped for his nt can effortlessly blend into the English game, you know that all it requires is skill and commitment.
To celebrate this signing I am going to find a pig and mount it. I am that happy. 
I need a beer.
From May 28th in the old Schweinsteiger thread.
IT'S ON.
IT'S ON.

You might end up with pork scratchings
Now schneiderlin
Over the hill, injury prone, on too much money and will take up a place in the side that a younger, better player could have.
A signing based on him being a big name and a once great player.
This is the Falcao thread isn't it?

Just saw wiki and his full name says Bastian Schweinsteiger, always though Bastian is short for Sebastian
Nicely done
The poll about how we feel about him coming doesn't really cover how I feel. I wouldn't say it's 'brilliant' but it's slightly better than 'decent'. I'd describe it as a solid signing that'll bring experience and stability into the area on the field we need it the most (or arguably second most after the defense).
Also, it's Bastian

Afroman now: Man this is bullshit!im so happy. Honestly get a cb in, Schneiderlin and a striker and we are in such a fecking good place. Benzema and otamendi/ramos and we get that league title.
This is not the Falcao thread.
Edit: damn I only drank two Warsteiner and already fell for it
Will the younger player have the same experience as him? He is leaving Bayern to rise up to another challenge in his career. If he thought he just wants to ride in to the sunset, he would rather have preferred to go to the States. He is going to be good singing for United. Especially if United manage to qualify for the group stages of the champions league.
His training methods, his skill will all be put to good use and younger players at United will get to learn from him. It's a great deal for United.
Edit: Damn it!!!
I hope your team is ready for next season...Schweinsteiger against Bentaleb and MasonThe poll about how we feel about him coming doesn't really cover how I feel.

And the greatest winners interview ever.
Mueller: I don´t give a shit about the golden boot, I´m a world champion.
Schweini: He said you look very nice.
Wonder what number he'll be getting... 31 is taken by Fellaini, Evans has 6 (might be sold though so it would make sense to give that to Schweiny or Schneiderlin), Mata has 8. Not sure what other "midfielder" numbers there are and Van Gaal actually cares about that.

We sign Ivanovic as well (Ana)

medical tomorrow, according to Sky.
Reminds me of the Pirlo to Juve transfer. Although Pirlo was 32 at the time. Didn't turn out too bad for them mind.
Where is he now? Is he on the plane to Manchester for a medical? Anyone knows?
WC player no doubt and a good signing as long as he's rotating with Carrick. If both start then its not a good signing as Herrera will most likely be dropped and it would make a even worse signing because Pereira will hardly get any minutes at all.
I can see Carrick being moved on next season (don't want it to happen as I think he's the deep lying midfield in the PL and a WC player) and Bastian taking his position in the team. Rooney and Bastian as the 2 senior players in the squad doesn't sound to bad as long as we keep bringing in/develop players that will be here for the long term Like Herrera, Darmian, Blind, Rojo, Shaw, Depay, Januzaj, Pereira, Wilson.

lets go into muppet mode, next Gundogan and Hummels.
I think that is what some are forgetting, that he will have other people doing the running for him.
Bastian. Fecking. Schweinsteiger.
Enough said.

Think he is going to be important part in our transition period.
What, the two players that are definitely staying put?
Fan song? Something to the tune of 'let it shine'? 'He's our schwein, He's our schwein'
I never go all muppet about signings, but this takes the biscuit. Most exciting since van Persie and I think you have to go all the way back to Cristiano for the next one that really had me smiling like a little kid.
Shame he broke up with that model girlfriend though
