Was it not two years ago he was telling anyone who’d listen that Maguire wasn’t good enough? Bruno last summer as well. It’s his job to sign the players his manager wants. Every one who has worked for him bar Solskjaer has said he failed to do that.
:rolleyes: Go to sleep.
 
This is such a Fred type of signing. I can't believe that people are excited. In two years, we're gonna ask ourselves how we could ever spend 40M on a player that isn't better than our other options.
Fred is quite a good signing. Not sure what is wrong with that.
 
So......he's a panic buy?

Eredevise regulars, is this guy any good? He looked good in the CL but then Tadic looked like a bloody champion. I've only seen him compared to Siem De Jong and Davey Klassen.
They had Kevin Hatchard on Talksport, who follows all the european leagues. He said that De Jong and De Ligt got all the plaudits for Ajax run in the CL, but he thought VDB was as good as them.
 
I apologise if one signing doesn’t make me think Woodward is good at his job.

No need to apologise to me, I don’t care if you’re a miserable fecker :lol:

In all seriousness though, I am happy that we at least seem to be getting our transfers right nowadays and the days of expensive mistakes like Falcao, Di Maria and Sanchez seem to be over. For that we must be thankful and hopeful.

€40m, not £40m

listen cockface...you are the most vile cumstain I've ever encountered on this forum. You monopoloise this thread you come across with some half arsed one liner that would'nt qualify for the Joe Longthorne show and then present yourself like you are the King of comedy on American prime time. You epitimise most of what I detest about the internet...opinions formed at the drop of a hat....petty jokes at the expense of others with no thought for their feelings and most of all the self absorbing egotistical self correction of spelling that really points out to every other poster that the highlight of your day is a wank to "big tit weekly". You dont have the friends here you perceive yourself to have and have the intellect of a gnat and the culmanation of this sceario will be your demise in a slow and agonising manner.

Played well against us in the champions league. Surprised the fee is so small, if other clubs were genuinely interested then you would have expected a bidding war.
Would have liked him at Chelsea but our midfield is pretty heavy right now so I can understand why we didn’t look at him.
 
Sounds ideal. Midfield three of VDB, Pogba and Fernandes could be superb. Now for a winger and a central defender.
Yep, need to play him aginst those lower sides who pride themselves in sitting back against us, give us more options and movement since little is coming the other way.

Not at all. De Beek has plenty of CL experience and grew up at one of the top football academies with many other players who've also joined top clubs.

Fred, bless him, came from a very different circumstance.

Does this mean we will sell Fred? Or is he being remolded as a DM like the other day against Sevilla.

wasted use of a classic
 


Strong feeling we are signing a future club legend. Bruno VDB combo could be deadly.
 
IF we sign him (i don't believe it until he signs) then this is type of signing on which all fans were jealous on Chelsea, Liverpool, Bayern....we did it in two days.
Yesterday was first real rumour about it and today it is close to be done. Good job by Ed.

If we sign him...

74 goals/assists in just 159 apps?! at such a young age? Thats outrageous for a b2b midfielder. confirms all the youtube videos.

Go wash your legs.
 
Good signing, should see the end of at least one of lingard or pereira (hopefully both!). Just need to add Sancho, Thiago plus a CB and we are good to go!!
 
Seems to know where the net is, good lad.

I know him and Fred play slightly different positions but Fred can't shoot to save his life and that's one thing that holds him back.
 
Good signing. We need a much stronger squad filled with quality and this is a good start. He's certainly an upgrade on what we have as backup.
 
I know nothing about this player so not massively excited, but at least we are signing players to improve the quality of the squad and not just first 11.
