If we have him it's a top piece of business. Very bizzare remarks about him in the thread.
Edinson Cavani - SIGNED for United

All of them.
What a shite squad. Still cant get over the fact we gave Jones another contract. Has he even played after getting one?
4 GK's seems like overkill, is that the norm in the PL?
Ole might have restarted training while at it.
He must be a 15th choice target. He was a free agent and has been doing feck all over the summer without a club. We clearly didn't manage to get our main targets yet again.
Or perhaps it couldn't get done 6 weeks ago because he and his agent were asking for silly money. Perhaps with the transfer window about to close they've had to climb down and accept they won't be getting money quite as silly as they thought they could 6 weeks ago.
But we expected him to sort our midfield out when he was too old, Cavani is a bench player simple as. Not the same in my opinion.
I do wonder if his (and his agent's) demands dropped significantly as it looked like nobody was interested at the wages they were originally asking for.
That's the left... striker is what he wanted, and got (remember the furore over his number and Zlatan, too?) and he's had no real competition for the role as of yet.
If by some miracle Cavani can turn the clock back and play like he used to, he's a genuine threat to bench Martial - chance is obviously a fine thing, but I'd say the lines are fine with Martial, personally.
He obviously doesn’t have a clue
Yeh as mascots maybe.
A very poor of signing. 2 year deal and he is well past it. Way too slow for the PL
The same people that are happy we've got Cavani are the same people that kept replying with ' but... Bastian Fecking Schweinsteiger 
' in response to anyone who dared question that signing.
If this is our only signing after DvB, we are screwed.

Love how people think they know the ins and outs of our dealings when they clearly have no idea.
He was never the best there but is he still an option at right wing ?
I don't know the details of how much it's costing us. A club's priorities can shift. It's pretty clear that Ole doesn't have much faith in Ighalo at this point, as Ighalo hasn't done anything in a while, and his minutes have dropped. So bringing in another backup striker option makes sense, also considering that Ighalo is on a loan deal and will leave mid season. The injury point is a fair one, but with him being brought in as a backup instead of starter, I think we can manage him well physically.
"Behave"? Really? How old are you?
You gave me a silly answer so I gave one to you.
You obviously don’t have a clue what you're talking about.
need to get of 3 if we get get Cavani/Telles. We’ll have 28 O21 players (provided we still keep Ighalo) who need to be registered. Whether we can get rid of Romero/Smalling/Rojo in 2 days, we’ll see.
If the RW is Not Sancho and is O21 Too, then we need 4 gone, so then a Mensah or Jones or Dan James/Lingard to go As well l, otherwise we will have players paid to do nothing.
Which is incredibly depressing.
Ole realising it's either Cavani, who I'm sure he doesn't really want, or feck all.
So he's had to accept Cavani.
What a mess.
what a shite signing
Why? Ole was striker and i am sure that he rates strikers like Cavani. And i am sure that Ed would not sign him without talking with Ole.
Anyway, good signing. And will put pressure on Martial to start deliver goals
Can anyone chime in and explain why Juve didn't get him?
Juve are usually on these kind of signings like a rat up a drain pipe so this is worrying.
No doubt he'll score goals but at what cost? Guarantee if he plays well we won't be signing anyone next year

Signing a 33 year old big name striker renowned for his physical commitment after a series of bad injuries and is known to have a questionable first touch and bottle a good chance. Genius signing.
Well he'll fit right in with Rashford, Mata and Dan James. The newest member of the stretford softies.
Yeah, like Thiago.Are you joking?
Both had similar time out this season. Infact his injury record isn't that bad to be fair.
He's a proven goalscorer who's here to be backup.
Stop with your misplaced ire.
Falcao was a bench player and he still flopped. Bastian was actually supposed to be a rotation player as well because we still had Carrick, we bought Schneiderlin as well and we had Daley Blind, Herrera.
Falcao was coming back from a very serious injury.
They signed morata.
On a positive note, he could turn out to be a Zlatan rather than Bastian, Sanchez or Falcao. Some of you guys need to wait before making judgements.
we never fecking learn, do we?

I remember that well, so fecking annoying.
This is what happen when you wait till last week. All you get are leftovers whom nobody wants.
You're probably right to be fair but it doesn't sound like it will be a cheap one.
The amount of fury when he misses chance after chance after chance.....still at least it’ll be Sancho putting those chances on a plate for him.
how utterly depressing that agent quote is. Woodward deserves all the shit he gets, genuinely turned us into a laughing stock
Who's on flight watch?
Let's get Ozil next, maybe bring Higuain back to the PL.
Cavani and Higuain up top, Ozil behind them. Dynomite!

Very underwhelming, let's hope he can surprise us.
last two days
This summer window was an opportunity to make our starting 11 selections over the season better, by adding players that could be considered starters to help rotation.
Anyone that's happy with our club only being able to sign probably a 15th choice striker at the start of the window needs to demand more of the club.
