I just meant I could see Valencia preferring Rojo + half the money to all the money, since they will need a left-sided center back to replace Otamendi. But yeah, I have no qualms with Rojo being Otamendi's backup here.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Ashwin @AR87 are here to discuss two "on-paper" not great results for United over the last week, but are there positive signs of progress despite what the ex-United pundits are saying?
They also preview the big game Europa League game against Lyon.

Hummels?!
Edit: Never mind.. Thought he was left footed for some reason.. Although he does play LCB
De Boer is right footed isn't he?
Its old school British tv psycho game-show sound effects man - what's not to love about that
Right footed.
Yes.. Just found out.. Looked comfortable as a LCB though..
One of them was right & the other was left. Which one was which? They both played at Barca together & every other feckin club too for Christ sake..
He was booed by the some of the Valencia fans recently although they were many who were still applauding. You could still clearly hear the whistles though. His performance in preseason also hasn't been as good as last season although its only preseason and most of the players haven't hit their peak but you can't help but think if his mind is elsewhere, like with De Gea.
Is Otamendi left-footed?
Most LCB's are right-footed. Will someone tell LvG that..
So is Otamendi leaving? Seems Valencia are in for Garay?? Did sky sources not say something earlier that we are concentrating on the DDG situation and the forward positions?
Right-footed, but plays on the left side - same as Hummels, Terry, Vidic & predominantly every other top-class LCB throughout the history of the game..
I'm pretty sure he knows that but he is a bit special, always was and always will be.
Exactly and I can't wait to see the reaction on here if we bring in Otamendi to replace Smalling and Jones on the right and not Blind or Rojo on the left.
Do you think LVG wants him to take Blind/Rojo's spot as LCB or will he be competing with all our other centerbacks for the RCB position?
I hope it's the former.
maldini is right footed.....
Sooo basically, left footed players can't defend then....
I think the big question here is - who's his agent?
It's not Mendes is it?
Just checked & thank f*ck - its some lesser wanker called Eugenio Lopez..
However Mendes is somehow involved...
I assume most just go straight to playing LB. Chiellini is the only one I can really think of at the minute who has been - or is - around that top tier level.Sooo basically, left footed players can't defend then....
Nah man - he was left-footed, but could use his right..
R Koeman was a lefty no? Also F De Boer?
Really?
Vertonghen, Mathieu
He is the one brokering the deal it seems. Well that is what has been reported in the press.
Koeman was right-footed. Frank De Boer - was he the CB or was it Ronald?
Frank was the CB, Ronald was a winger. Frank was left footed.
you are wrong, its the other way around....if you dont remember just google it, every site says he was right footed.
You sure about Koeman? Yeah think Frank was the CB cos Ronald was the one who played for Rangers.
Chiellini, Sakho, Matthieu, Vertonghen, Abdennour, Mangala, Badstuber and Laporte are all the decent left-footed CBs playing now that I can find at the moment.
Frank was right footed. Ronald wasn't world class though was he?
Thats certainly what I thought, that he was predominantly right but used on the left.
He works with Mendes. I don't know how but he does. Maybe he's a partner or works for him or something but Mendes is definitely involved.
Frank was left footed, Millito was left footed too
Frank was left footed. It doesn't make sense to take FK for example with his weaker foot, does it?
There was one great FK against Valencia which I couldn't find tho, took it with his left from memory.
Walter Samuel was very good in his day.
