Van Gaal doesn't have a good relationship with their Manager for one reason!What about Southampton? Be a decent place for him to go imo.
too big of an investment for one individual when could use that to overhaul a weak defense and solidify the midfield with 4-5 quality starters. Especially ridiculous when a much cheaper Reus could be had for 1/6th of that.
Nothing but the usual rubbish.A lot of sources are saying that Strootman to us is a done deal, I'm in the office in and twitter, fb, etc is blocked if anyone wants to dig out a tweet or two to confirm.
Yep, agreed. Could potentially by 3-4 world class players (or voles to that level) for that price which would improve our team much more.No. Just no man. Football is a team game. £120m unless he's a prime Ronaldo or Messi is too big of an investment for one individual when could use that to overhaul a weak defense and solidify the midfield with 4-5 quality starters. Especially ridiculous when a much cheaper Reus could be had for 1/6th of that.
Anybody with a sub copy and paste the article?
Pallotta: Strootman will not join Man United.
Nothing special really, just says all 5 are out of contract at the end of the year and have yet to sign a new contract. That is, James, Blackett, McNair, Lingard and Pereira.
The trouble with Januzaj at the moment is that not only do we not play with wingers but LVG also seems to prefer players who are more "complete" for their positions.
Januzaj offers a creative attacking threat but as far as the positions we can offer go he doesn't really warrant a start.
Striker: He doesn't offer the hold up play or goal threat we need.
Number 10: He's not good enough at dropping back and getting involved deeper and he's not going to displace Mata or Rooney from starting there while we're hungry for points.
Midfield: There's no way he's going to warrant a start in midfield ahead of Carrick, Blind, Di Maria, Rooney, Fellaini or Herrera.
The best position to develop a talent like him is out wide and we just don't play with wingers often enough to satisfy his needs. The sad fact is that right now we're not in a position where we can carry one youngster like we used to.
Last year he was fantastic but he was playing with no expectations and he was being accommodated to some extent. Moyes' instructions to him were basically go out and play like you know you can, essentially having a free role with little defensive responsibility. That role doesn't exist in Van Gaal's system.
He's got a lot of learning and growing to do before he can be trusted in this side, or, this side has a lot of learning and growing to do before it can accomodate a youngster like him.
What's funny?@Roma officials

Yeah, I don't think we should be worried with any, really. Maybe James and Lingard I'd be pretty indifferent with, but the rest of those should be signed up come January.Hopefully we are just waiting for the start of the new calendar year to officially sign them, De Gea and Carrick to new deals.
It's funny because they are full of crap.
I recall the juve directors going on about Vidal in the same manner during the summer, it's just grandstanding.
Yeah and what happened? Vidal stayed.It's funny because they are full of crap.

Did we sign Vidal?
Yeah and what happened? Vidal stayed.
And they wont exactly say, sure Strootman will leave, just name the price, will they?

The question here is...how good is Swansea's nightlife?
They have said the same about Marquinhos and Benatia.........few days later....both were a different clubs.What's funny?
Yeah. but as I said what should they say?They have said the same about Marquinhos and Benatia.........few days later....both were a different clubs.
Does he have a bad reputation for partying? Dude was a FM beast 2 years ago for me
Of course they can't say anything else. I just wanna say statements like that means nothing at all.Yeah. but as I said what should they say?
If Strootman will want to leave there wont be anything they can do about it.
