Is he really better than matuidi?Emery likes 4231, so Krychowiak would probably be paired with Verratti in a double pivot and a 10 like Pastore ahead.
On paper this looks very good.
It's the 3rd time in the last 7 years ... so not such a rare event.
Sorry I had to get involved here, but you're saying United fans shouldn't be looking towards the title but Spurs should aspire to finish top four? Going by your logic, because Spurs have finished top for 3 times out of 7, yet United have won 3 titles in 8, so we very much have the right to look forward to a title challenge as you do for finishing top four!
This year the traditional big clubs have faltered massively, and yet your club with probably the best squad I'm years, with a very good manager still managed to choke to your adversaries in Arsenal, suggest you concentrate on your own ambitions rather than coming on a United forum to knock the hopes of others.
Different profile, he is a real DM while Matuidi is a B2B who's been playing higher than Verratti in a midfield 3.Is he really better than matuidi?
United have faltered the last 3 years running, only getting 4th place in one of those years. So it's not unreasonable to suggest that top 4 for United this coming season is a more realistic aim than winning the title.
Anyhow, this discussion should best take place in another thread. In the meantime, you can of course look forward to whatever you league finish you wish.
From that article:-
When asked exactly which other clubs had an interest in the French midfielder, Raiola replied "Sheiks, everybody,"
So that narrows it down to PSG, Manchester City, and every other club in the planet. Thanks Mino!
maybe he wanted to treat everybody with Milk Sheiks!? ok,ok
This is a high risk strategy by real. They're mad if they think they can get 60m euros for him.

Which is why the England team is shot. Managers get slated or used to for buying foreigners but who can blame them.Troy Denny going for £30 million on the same day Real Madrid sign spains 1st choice striker Alvaro Morata for €30 million. unbelievable

It would have made a lot of sense until you weigh in the fact that two out of the big three have release clauses in their contract. Vardy's is at 20m and Kante at 22m according to reports if I am not mistaken. They could recoup all that money on the Mahrez deal alone though.The more I think about the Troy Deeney deal, the more I think Leicester are geniuses. In essentially assigning Deeney this value they get to set the tone and dictate the prices of this transfer market. No matter what deal happens after (if) Deeney goes to Leicester, it will be compared alongside it. Basically - clubs will demand even more for players they're willing, but not looking, to get rid of because - Deeney to Leicester.
Leicester come off best in this because they will make it harder for the clubs around them to sign players, as well as instantly increase the amount they can demand for players potentially wanting to move on from them. They also get Deeney at £12-15m over his actual value, but this will be recuperated easily if they sell any of their big three.
