Awesome. An intelligent, composed, ball playing central midfielder.
 
Excellent, hopeully he will hit the ground running, as he is already accustomed to LVG's philosophy
 
He's handsome little scamp. Really happy with this signing, think he'll do well for us. Versatile squad players, they can be a godsend at times.
 
Blind is really good at reading the game, although not the most talented he uses his intelligence to make the most out of what he has. Very exciting deal, our first real midfielder with good defensive capabilities.

How tall is LvG?
 
It is all about the "philosophy" at Manchester United this season...

LVG thought he could teach the "philosophy" in 3 months, but after 2 weeks with Jones and Smalling that jumped to a full year...but i'm hoping Blind can be LVG's voice on the pitch and get that timeline back down to a couple of months and kick start the season.
 
He'll be a great signing.

Shame he's arriving the same day we're signing Falcao and selling our best academy player of the last few years to a direct rival.
 
He's a Manchester United fan and it's a dream come true to play for one of the biggest clubs in the world. :drool:
 
A defensive midfielder......an actual honest to god defensive midfielder..................YES YES YES YES YES!
 
I love players like Blind. I so hope he's a success here. He'll put himself about and improve our side.
 
Part of me wonders if he's been bought to play the central role in the three man defense, with his ability to step forward and play the ball.
 
Just watched his interview, he's a fan of United, so is Rojo, Di Maria only want Manchester United if he was to leave Madrid and Falcao supposed to have turned down City and Pool.. These are the players we need, players who want to play for the club like De Gea and Rafael!
 
By the way how to spell his name. Blind (with how we spell e) or Blind (the meaning of can't see)

You mean how you pronounce it? The 'i' is pronounced as you pronounce the 'i' in the word 'literally' or 'different'. So you don't pronounce it like you do when you mean 'can't see'. ;)

Apparently he's been told that in the beginning he has to focus on the midfield positions. He should be a starter there at least for now. That's what his manager said on Dutch TV.
 
Pleased with this signing; hopefully the talk of him excelling recently as a DM will translate into the Premier League for us.
 
Poor Daley Blind. No one gives a shit now we've signed Falcao.
 
Look at him... a winner



And some people still think he won't be an upgrade over Fletcher and Cleverley.

Not to mention he won the above award, playing as a DEFENSIVE MIDFIELDER. Caps for emphasis, given so many caftards seem to post that we haven't signed a defensive midfielder.
 
Hopefully he will be a very important signing for us. Many of the top clubs have a ball playing defensive midfielder who do wonderful jobs and usually fly under the radar, and from what I have seen of him he seems to fit the bill.
 
Wow, we actually bought two central midfielders this window (maybe even 3 if you consider Di Maria to be used as one). Have we finally learned?
 
What a handsome man :drool:. Looking forward to seeing how he goes.
 
Hope he can be the next Carrick for our team. Alonso for the anti-Carrick brigade.
 
He'll be a great signing.

Shame he's arriving the same day we're signing Falcao and selling our best academy player of the last few years to a direct rival.
Actually I think that's the perfect way for him to arrive. The spotlight will be off him to an extent and he can just get on with helping us out in a crucial area.
 
I have my reservations about him but I'm 100% on board with him proving me wrong, welcome to United Daley! :)
 
Will be an underrated, shrewd signing. Not a big name but has an important role as a Def MF.
 
Poor lad completely overshadowed by Falcao.

I really hope he does well. Boy, do we need a good midfielder.
