Good lord...
Glad it's a done deal. Hope he can be playing ASAP, excited to see him in action.
Hes unknown in terms of not being a player many would know about and the portuguese league is below the EPL/German/Spanish league and the Serie a/french league
I followed lisbon when it became evident that we were interested in calvalho.
Regarding the last part i explained it in latter posts. Im more concerned about the magnitude of the job then the talent of the player.

Can't believe the name on the shirt says Marcos Rojo. Why not just Rojo, it sounds and looks much better. Same with Herrera.
Stupid rant over.
Stupid rant over.
We have much greater problems than that.
As all boy bands have the slightly rough one, he will fit in right away! I think he will be a fan favourite too, I'm already liking his enthusiasm. I love a bruiser as well!
I've thought about this shit myself. Two perfectly good last names on their own without the extra lettering of their first names! Rant over
Wonder if we will throw in straight in regardless of not really having been able to train with us or if we won't see him until next week
I think it depends on how bad LVG found our CB's last game. I guess he'll go with the usual, not fit or ready in my system stuff and not play him yet.
<insert joke about a wet windy night at Stoke here>
As I said to Sly. I fear that the job is bigger than the one Rio and Stam had when they joined with us. I mean Rio and Stam had experienced heads to allow them to bed in and share the responsibility. Out of the 6 first team defenders we have, 4 are injury prone (Smalling, Rafael, Evans and Jones) and the other is a 19 year old fresh from Saints.
and he's injured
Will he be ready to play this weekend? Cannot wait to see him on the field for us.
True, that or we play him on the left potentially, as shaw is injured, instead of a winger.
I think if we play 3-4-1-2 we'll use Young as LWB and Rafael as RWB. Should LVG decide to play a back-four I can see Rojo starting as LB.
Would love to see him sooner rather than later too. I know he doesn't know the system, but I can't help but think he would be an instant improvement on what we have right now when you look at the space Swansea managed to generate for the first goal, this guy seem a little more turned on in that respect and may well have had a better shot at stopping that happening.
I think if he is ready he will start at LCB and James at LWB for a away game with Rafael at RWB.
He has often played in this type of system, it's probably where he is best suited.
Well then, get him on the bloody pitch on sunday!
When everyone is fit, I would like to see LvG change to a back four with Shaw LB and Rojo left side central defender. Young is a liability in defence, regardless of how he played on the US tour - he cannot defend.
The Moyes effect has traumatised the CAF. We have lost one game but its convinced everyone that we need to sign the finished article in every position or else we're gonna crumble.
I only saw Rojo in the World Cup really but he looked good to me. He's young, he'll develop and learn. He has the same profile as the likes of Evra and Vidic when they came to United. Why are people panicking?
Like you say Sults, he doesn't seem like a shrinking violet. People forget how good Argentina were defensively in the World Cup (probably because going forward they were awful for the most part). This lad knows how to keep a clean sheet. I'm really pleased with his signing.
Plus it means the Argentina chant is probably back.
Does he speak any English at all?
The color formattig of red (Rojo in spanish) is:
HTML #E60026
RGB (r,g,b)B (230, 0, 38)
Note that the numbers 60, 26, 23 and 38 is marked in bold. That would mean these are the most likely shirt numbers which means that there is a 25% chance that either Cleverly or Kagawa is leaving the club. We might then assume it is 26, Kagawa that is leaving, then we find out that the color code #E26000 is Orange, this means he will be going to The Netherlands! While the color code for 23000 is still in the red scale. Do we have another transfer confirmed?

Tbh not many people have a chance with Wazza anyway.
I dont know if he speaks English but he seems to understand Rooney.
El Ronyero!
No better man than Rooney to Rojo show him the ropes. Great to see.
Isn´t Van Gaal going to buy another defender?
Rooney looking like a captain in that photo. Good to see.
"What the feck is this guy doing controlling the ball?"
"And now successfully passing the ball to a teammate. Big whoop, I can do that too!"
Strange seeing Rojo on united´s training gear but nice to see Rooney helping him settle. I´m sure Rojo understands scouse eh. If it wasn´t for the refusing to train incident, i would genuinely wish him luck. On the other hand, i can´t stay mad at him. He´s paying our pavilion and gave us Nani! You guys wouldn´t believe the euphoria amongst our supporters with Nani´s arrival. It´s kind like when you guys were hoping Ronaldo would rejoin you except he didn´t. If only Madrid would loan him and pay his wages.
why do people care for the name on the back of his shirt? If it is now Rojo or Marcos Rojo, who cares. It is not like some of you wanted to buy the shirt. If it helps to settle in and feel more comfortable, i am all for it. He and Ander had it like that at previous clubs too, so even if it looks a bit shit, i dont know why people are offended.
