Sensible and needed. Once confirmed (him, depay and Schneiderlin) these will improve our first team and give us time to go after the bigger ones needed.
Still think given who may leave, a striker, a cb and if possible another CM gives us a huge boost for going for the title (as well as making a good CL run)

I've always liked Omid
Howard Nurse: Man United signs sensational Brazilian right back, Rafael Da Silva for 2.5m pounds. More to follow...
There it is again- 'closing in'. 
About time we have an Italian firs teamer.
Because the euro is so weak right now... Surprised that more teams from the prem aren't taking advantage of it. They spend twice as much for the equivalent player in the premier league compared to a similar level player elsewhere.
You lot trying to buy the league again? For shame!
Yeah, it's either that it's his official account or he has no instagram account.
Crystal Palace are about to sign Cabaye for cheap, are there any world class Greek players...
Out of curiosity, whats the longest transfer saga you've had to endure as a Chelsea fan, i imagine you dont have too many of those.
FFS...
On Darmian. Watched him only 2 times and was impressed but never thougth he will be the player we will go for. I was convinced we will go for Clyne or Coleman but it looks like Woddy has done his homework. Great deal, can't want to see him in United shirt.
Just to point out, Darmian was linked with Bayern several times, a team that has Lahm on one side and Alaba on the other. This tells a lot about his qualities.
I just hope that this will not result in selling Rafael because my heart will break if we sell Rafael and Nani in the same window.
He's not English.
Falcao seemed to take a while to get done. Maybe it seemed to take longer than it did as I spent about 4 weeks mashing the F5 key hoping for signs he'd go somewhere else.
With that surname its only fair he is concerned about Rafael
I think the credit must go to LVG for this. After all, he is the one who is supposed to choose our targets and if accounts are to be believed, he rejected Clyne because he was not considered good enough.
Apparently they sell it in those little Italian souvenir shops. Have a look next to all the bottles of limoncello shaped like the Mole Antonelliana.
All fingers pointing to this direction, 2 years late imo.
20m euros isnt a small amount to a team like Torino. Italian clubs aren't nearly as rich as their English counterparts.
Or from an English club.
There are so many Instagram accounts with his name
Agree. Until proven differently, LVG chooses the targets and then Woody goes and kidnaps them.
get in. Cocks out?Italian clubs tend to have a realistic view about how much their players are worth.
And the Euro and stuff innit.
20m Euros is a good price. Euro very weak right now.
This is actually the highest amount they have ever received for a player, cant believe Immobile was cheaper.
He'd have left for a bag of potatoes if we were selling him.
"The day has come, after 3 years fantastic leave Turin.
Wonderful three years where I learned to play, have fun and I learned above all to live! It is thanks to my teammates and my fans who have become so, a player tried from all over Europe, is only about you and Mr. Ventura, more than a coach to me, the second father.
Right now I have no words, I'm just crying. Remember that I leave Turin for a future career choice, not because I am evil. Turin will always be my second home, I never tire of her. I do a good luck to all the team and the fans.
This is not a goodbye but a see you. In these three years we went back to A, we won against Juventus after 20 years and we are back in the so-called Europe League. I think to go away with a clear conscience affixed, at least I hope so. My I did for this team, I gave all of my heart and my soul. It was an honor to play for Torino and also be in a few games the captain!
I think the love I gave to this city, will be returned in a few parts.
Thanks for everything Turin!"
Now Ramos and Otamendi. Who knows maybe we can still convince DDG to remain considering that we will finally have a decent defense in front of him
Jeez what a mammone. You're joining the biggest British club in the world and not going to Afghanistan
Dont think DDG is leaving this summer, looks like we won this battle.
Considering how he actually played last season... I can. (Massive hindsight obviously, thought he was an excellent signing at the time.)
Two signings done then, I'd say three or four at the most to go. CB, CM, GK(if Valdes isn't trusted) and possibly a striker.
I think he's leaving
We've a long way to go yet in this window. I reckon it's far from over.
