Moyes: "There's no budget" | Moyes told that he can spend as much as he likes

He already said that the player we will get might not be at the high end of the top transfer wishlists.
 
Fellaini didn't play as a CM though.

With the 'chances created' stat, every shot is a chance created regardless of whether it's from the half way line or a couple of yards from the goal mouth. A number of those chances created by Baines are also from corners. So each time he takes a half decent corner he creates a chance. What a load of fecking nonsense. Not even sure what key passes is tbh

And the bit at the bottom is said too often. Young had a shit load of assists for Villa, hasn't doubled his tally for United has he? Same will happen with Baines and most of his assists are from set pieces I think.

I am not saying Baines is a bad player, he might even be better than Evra but unless Evra is leaving I see it as a pointless signing who won't improve us much, if at all.


And here I agree with you
 
So United will sign nobody? The transfer season is over, and that's that?

I don't know why that's so hard to believe? For years I've been saying we wouldn't sign a midfielder only to be laughed at and then what happened? I was correct. I see no reason to believe we have any more targets other than 2 defenders based on the information presented to us at this moment in time

Not even Moyes saying we're short in midfield?

Because us fans generally have all the information regarding our club's transfer policy, yeah?

Stop whining and wait a couple of bloody weeks.
 
Fergie kept saying that midfield needed to be strengthen but didn't buy anyone. We may well continue our midfield experiment. I don't mind that as long as we don't waste money buying unnecessarily for positions we don't need to (like Baines and Garay)
 
Irish ducks are insane, just make sure they stay that side of the sea!Swans just look like bastards...and they generally are...and greedy too.

Anyways duck in his place, showers hit..time to settle down for the night. Oh shit Bayern have signed Thiago...effing marvellous.

I know. Ducksake!!

It'll be quiet round here next few days - with all the funerals & hospital visits from failed attempts...
 
The world is full of talent. Thiago is just one pearl in a sea of....sea.

Like I said for years I've been proved correct about the lack of midfield signings, I don't see that changing this summer now nor do I think that's me whining. I can see the likes of yourself have taken the Thiago news badly though so won't upset you further

:lol: You'll find I couldn't care less about him even before his signature for Bayern.

Looks like your perception of this issue is about as accurate and prophetic as the others you spread on this forum

yeah, I agree with this, although with Moyes stating that the midfield needs attention, I'm hoping something will happen in the next few weeks, but not sure who the feck that will be
 
Moyes better spend some dough on some quality players (read midfielders) soon or I'm going to be quite angry. :mad:
 
Didn't Fergie say the same thing last summer?

I don't think so, but him and Moyes are two different people - so that wouldn't matter regardless. Everyone knows we're poor in midfield, Moyes will know this too. When Scholes retired we still had Pogba coming through, when Pogba left we still had Scholes. On top of that Fletcher's future looks bleak and Giggs who was used in midfield quite a lot is preparing for retirement with the coaching role. We'll sign someone, we're not going into next season with two reliable CMs.

:lol: no offence but I've been reading that every summer for the last few years

Took me a bit to think of the other....

fecksake - its that feckin bad eh?! Should we put an ad the paper lookin for mid-fielders - "no previous experience necessary, but own transport is a must.." type of thing????
 
It is pretty cool.

Manager: "I want that player."

Board: "No problem."

Wish we were like that :(.

Bit like Hitler!

Hitler: I want to invade Poland.

Reichstag: No bother big lad. Troops are on the border as we speak.

Hitler: Nice one lads - we'll conquer Europe again & again & again... no-one will be able to stop us now...!

Reichstag: Beer?

Hitler: Why not - get them i'm & i'll get a spliff goin..
 
:lol: no offence but I've been reading that every summer for the last few years

So we're never going to sign a CM ever again?

:lol:

We also need to remember that Carrick is 32 on the 28th of July and while Cleverley is reliable on the pitch - last season was his only real injury free run with us.

fecksake & i thought i was old at 37. Carrick at 32, whats that in non-footballer years - something like 53? He'll probably pack it in & take up a coaching role with Giggsy in next week or two!

Not never no but any targets this summer are likely to be ones Fergie identified and I believe Fergie was always holding out for a special player for the midfield so if Thiago was that player then it would take a similar talent being available for us to bring in anyone this summer. Next summer will be a different case entirely though especially depending on how the upcoming season goes.

I suppose there is still time for Moyes to bring someone in...I mean he did indentify the need for strenthening the midfield...
