Mata puns are borring now.
Mata | Mourinho says it's just a Mata of time
- Thread starter Suedesi
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to talk about United's dreadful home defeat at the hands of Big Ange's Tottenham Hotspur. Should this have been the end of Ten Hag? How long does he actually have left? And does Nik finally want ETH out?!

So he will be a Utd player within 24 hours..doesn't he have to complete a medical or has that already been done?

Glad to see if anything happens it's not contingent on Wayne going the other way.
Sounds like bullshit as they could just offer Costa to Chelsea instead.
Would Mata even want to go to Atletico?
Imagine the outrage if we sign him, then put him on the bench for the next 3 months because he needs to adjust while Young and Valencia play.
Never...
Why not? They're joint top in La Liga and could potentially win that league, they're a very good side.

No, they are always fun. Imagine how many puns there will be rolling around matchday threads if we sign this cnut.
They could offer both to Chelsea instead as Chelsea could do with a left back too.
When can we start ordering Mata jerseys from the United megastore?
I'd imagine Shaw will be a Chelsea player in the summer.
Any time mate, you just need to ask them to put "Mata" on the back. Get one with a number seven shirt!
problem for A. Madrid though, Mourinho has stated that he wants the money for Mata to buy more players, he might not be willing to settle for players on offer...he will be thinking tactics as its what he does, it would make more sense for him and chelsea to send Mata to us...
Because we could potentially pay double as much as Atletico. Atletico are doing fantastically well under Simeone, but they're still a far lesser club than Manchester United.
If rumours are true that Mata is on 60/70k, he might be on double that as soon as he signs for us.
I have a sneaking feeling that Woody can't actually swing it that much....
Will there be news on this at 11am this morning? 11am is when shit usually goes down is it not?
I know. The difference is that teams like Bayern, Barca and Real, City, Arsenal have a lot variety to their attack even when they play with traditional wingers. The kind of wingplay we employ is old fashioned. Our midfielders spread the ball wide to Valencia or Young/Evra who stay wide whilst putting in cross after cross. With players like Mata, Kagawa, Januzaj our attack becomes less predictable. It's not just a matter of Young, Valencia and Nani regaining form and fitness
the news will probably be Moyes denies any bid has been made for Mata.....don't hold yer hopes up etc, no quality in january....etc etc
#believe
Moyes will come out and say "United are always interested in top quality players"
The cock tease.
The cock tease.
What's this shit about 24 hours? Get it done in the next 4 hours and get him in tonight's starting XI.
Not that I believe this is happening.
Not that I believe this is happening.
I think we need a letter to Woody & Moyes detailing the precise steps of our January activities, incase he doesn't have time to log on..
More likely to be 11pm on deadline day if Woody is doing the deal.
I'm guesing you arent a member of UWS then :-) as you aren't worrying about being banned from it?

I dunno, they've got a pretty good team at the moment but for how long?
I think he'd probably see it as a step backwards in the direction he came from, a bit like moving back to Valencia.
If the world cup is as big a factor as I've heard then maybe he'd consider it, but playing well for United would be just as likely to get him into the Spain squad.
Mata will arrive via helicopter within the grounds of Woodys Mansion on transfer deadline day.
He would be cup tied
Absolutely
My primary worry with this deal is the potential of Chelsea getting something thrown in for Rooney. Mourinho came out recently and said that United were extremely reluctant to do business with a domestic rival. It does not really fit his style to then turn around and sell somebody who has real ability to the same domestic rival without a plan in place.
Granted, he may look at this as strengthening his own sides title credentials by improving our own chances against City and Arsenal.... Who knows. I want him here right now though. He is 25 and a seriously good player. Not so long ago people were drooling at the prospect of having him over Rooney.
Shut up.
Perhaps part of the Mata deal is that Chelsea will get Rooney (if rooney decides to go...again) in the summer....
I was almost hoping we'd go this window without any big muppet targets likely to let us down, just get a Cabaye or a Coentrao and move on, but no, we're now heavily linked with one of the best players in the league for a fee we've been completely unwilling to pay for players in the past. Fan-fecking-tastic.
Our last signing had been in the league for even longer than Mata to be fair. He may or may not hit the ground running.
This is what worries me
That Andy Mitten thing. The poster has joined date 2011. When did UWS site went live? Surely Andy Mitten is there from start? I call photoshop. Get back in your huts muppets.
We should verbally agree with Chelsea on Rooney, and then sell him off to Real in the summer, just to piss them off.
