Yeah exactly. From a United perspective it makes no sense at all imo and it's completely unnecessary to get rid of him so late in the window now. We can assume that we will maybe add another player today, but I doubt it and still if we accept a loan before that it will just make every other transfer more difficult and will result in paying another crazy fee. It seems like we are in "Levy mode" and just need to do something for the sake of it on this last window day.
If this happens, I feel that it means we are bringing in a number 10 alongside Martial.
Wtf is an Ioan?
Rooney will be played there. It's so freaking obvious. Can't wait for his neanderthaler touch.
So is this happening or not? Germany transfer window closes in just about an hour I guess? Unless for loan moves it is open longer.
Choo choo!!!
So the deadline is later for loans? How much later? I thought everything had to be done by 6 pm German time.
I don't think it's longer for loans. But I'm sure something will happen, otherwise Dortmund would not get rid of both Blaszczykowski and Großkreutz.
It's not later. It has to be done by 6 pm.
Or does he want to win a title in the BPL at all costs and is thus not willing to rely on too many youngsters?
No I don't know if that's the case. Just asked if it is.
More like Martial and Mata for the right wing and Herrera/Fellaini for the #10 spot. We still do severely lack a striker.
As long as there is no option to buy, I am OK with it.
Yeah that's possible. I don't see why he can't keep someone like Januzaj as a squad player though.
Yep, this is the reality unfortunately.
Starts the first 4 games of the season...then gets loaned out.
Seriously, WTF? What is wrong with this club? Its a shambles.

LVG already said his minutes would depend on what happens with the transfer window...
Would have preferred him to stay tbh, will he even start for Dortmund.
Search me. I'd never heard of Martial before today and I can't fathom why we're sending Januzaj out on loan with (if reports are to be believed) an option to buy. The place is like Fred Karno's circus.
But that's the problem, isn't it? What exactly happened so far? We signed Martial but also lost Chicharito, so no need to get rid of Adnan too.
About 1 hour left until the German window closes...
News of Hernandez leaving broke before news of Martials arrival...
I'm guessing our new no11 news will break tonight.
Wtf is an Ioan?
I think it's mainly a Romanian male name.
Very strange!
will do him good , he will get game time, hopefully he will come back a better player.
One of the most exciting talents we've had come through recently and basically because the manager doesn't know how to use him we're sending him out on loan. Totally bonkers! and made even worse by the fact we look like spending £40m on another unproven player to essentially do the same job, not happy if this happens.
He seems to be having one hell of a strange career arc if he ever does make it here at United.
Van Gaal might see Martial as a number ten though. We already have Herrera and Fellaini as well so signing someone else for that position seems unlikely.
Better not have an option to buy. Not sure why he's going from one bench to another though.
On paper, this loan move looks like a good idea, but he should be getting some premier league experience. Very surprised that he is not being loaned out to a premier league club.
Looks like this one is more or less finished now, based on the reports coming out right now.
Sam and Jon pretty much summed up my thoughts about this in the two posts quoted below. I've highlighted the most important parts.

I just can't fathom how he can go from being a starter in LVG's eyes, to being loaned out, all in the space of a few weeks.
Really disappointing if this is true tbh. I don't think he should be starting for us yet, but he should be staying and getting minutes.

Upset about this. Even if we bring in a replacement. Hope he fantastic and comes back an even bigger star
Bild confirmed it too, but no mention of a option to buy yet.
Done deal according to "Ruhrnachrichten" and "BILD". No details yet.
More likely move Rooney back to no10 with Martial up front IMO. Seeing as he obviously doesn't like Herrera and playing Fellaini up there is just embarassing for a club of our stature. Even LVG will not want the hoofball as our primary gameplan.
I wish him all the best and hope I'm wrong but I think this is a very bad idea.
If he's sold we riot
i heard ed was on form and it only cost us €20m for the season.
