RAWK Goes into Meltdown 2014/2015 - The "We go again" Edition

They can have Schweinsteiger. He's a squad player.

Great player in the past. Sure he'll have the good odd match for United.

But he'll be 31 the first month of the season. He comes to a faster paced league, ask Emre Can who has a lot more pace than Bastain. It's a more physical league, again ask Emre.

He comes with two bad ankles, to a league where tackles aren't as punished.

He comes to a league with no winter break, so he won't have those extra couple weeks to recuperate.

And he'll be managed by the Dutch Sam Allardyce...

I'm not that worried about him.
 
I'm sure he'd ask Can if he wanted to know how it feels to be an average player, playing for an average team who won't play Champions League football.

Or is it bye bye daddy you truly are a scouse cnut because I'm just born and you can't be arsed hanging around to pay for my ma's child benefits..I'm confused someone please fill me in!

I think it means they've finished their post and now they're off to sign on.
 
Latest form North Korea:



Yeah, a whole year of finishing ahead of us.





Falcao comparisons already, based on jack shit as ever.

you didnt have to go to RAWK for that...those type of posts are right here being said by our own posters :rolleyes:
 
I'm absolutely delighted they've signed Schweinsteiger. The worry was they would get someone like Gundogan - a young player who could go on to be a legend for them. Bayern didn't want to sell him but he wasn't crucial to them and United made an extravagant offer for him*. Make no mistake, Schweini is in Manchester on Bayern's terms not United's**. He had a poor season last year*** and there is no evidence to suggest he is over his ankle troubles. If he had performed upto his usual standards last year, he'd still be at Bayern, I have no doubts.

*£14m is extravagant?
**Bayern didn't want to keep him?
***I could've sworn he won the world cup.
 
Schweinsteiger probably has less tackles and interceptions because Bayern are so superior he didn't have to make them.

Of course, Liverpool's defense was so bad last year if you or I stood in midfield in front of their back 4 we'd have built up some nice stats.

Try telling them that though :rolleyes:

Notice how it's set to total rather than per 90 minutes too, they basically picked the only ones he's ahead on. Not that anyone with a brain thinks Allen's anywhere near as good, but Squawka's comparison matrix shows that on stats such as total score, forward passes, successful passes, key passes, assists, chances created, goals scored, shot accuracy, successful take ons, aerial duels won, blocks and defensive errors he's comfortably better.

'Absolutely delighted' that we're signing a world cup winner with more experience of winning than Welsh Xavi (Allo), Stevie Geordie (Hendo), Lucas Leaveit (Leavo), Emre Zidane (Cano) and Milneymar (Milno) combined. :lol:
 
A RAWKite said:
They apparently want a defender and a striker. Otamendi and Lacazette apparently.

Another RAWKite said:
Good luck to them. That'll be a new GK, RB, CB, 2x CM a winger & a striker. 7 new first teamers, all but 1 from different leagues, different languages, styles, etc.

They probably will go on to become a force again, that's inevitable, but it'll cost them close to £500m. They must feel really proud of that achievement.

Man United - ruining football since 1992.

I just read the whole of that page. Page 660. First time skulking on rawk. Mixed in with a couple of really bitter gimps were quite a few fans who sounds like they've been completely broken this weekend thanks to woody (delicious) but also a fair few rawkers who seemed alright, saying fair dos.

One chap even says they're to blame for fecking up the 90s while we got mega rich. Great stuff, wiuld read again.

In short though, a lot of them seem normal. 660 though. More than double this thread. Very obsessed.
 
Carrick, Schneiderlin, Schweinsteiger. Are they trying to have the build the slowest midfield ever?

Must be nice to be in a position where you can spend £300m net in 12 months and still be in no danger of FFP because you are so rich in terms of the income you generate.

To answer your rhetoric, yes, it's a genuinely wonderful feeling. I'm elated right now.

who are going to score the goals now they only have Rooney as a senior striker?

Just popping this one here so we can laugh at him when we sign Messi and Ronaldo. And Muller.

A couple seemed to know their stuff and some genuinely rate Carrick but the bitterness and the fear was apparent.

Feels like a constant orgasm at the moment. I think when schneiderlin was announced i reached a state of Tantra.

feck just seen the Schneidi news. Schneidi, Schweini and Sterling's gone too. Feck, we're seeing a bit of movement. Happy days.
 
Besides they can spend however much, but it's not going to guarantee a signing of an elite attacker. Lacazette would be a very good signing but he's a tier below the likes of Hazard, Sanchez and Aguero.

Unless they sign Bale, they will be lagging behind both City and Arsenal for the title.

Bale is the key to catching up??? get on it Woody. :lol:

Don't give a feck what anyone says, Rooney's an elite striker and has been much longer than Hazard or Sanchez (not saying he's better before someone bites my head off, just that he's been a top 10 striker for over 10 years).
 
Any oppo fan who doesn't recognise just how good our squad is now, is a qualified idiot.
 
I love that they've had to completely give up on comparing our squad to theirs, as even they can't fool themselves into thinking there's any kind of a contest now, and they've moved on to telling us how much worse than Chelsea we still are.

Any crumb of comfort for the guys who have to try and build a team around Jordan Henderson and James Milner, I guess.
