If that's the case we have 4 GKs. So who's in who's out.

De Gea is seemingly leaving in the next 12 months, so we are maybe planning in advance, with Valdes and Romero, while Johnstone is loaned.

Edit: I forgot that we had Lindegaard.

I hope Valdes doesn't become one of these people that can't accept when a relationship is over.
 
Surely LVG told him in May that he was not needed. I am guessing he is going to stay as he would have left by now.
 

Honestly wouldn't be surprised if we don't make any big moves for a CB at this point. The CB's LVG wanted are either unavailable, don't want to be here, or too expensive. The Ramos play was as much a strategem to keep DDG (or at least capitalize on a DDG transfer as much as possible), so I was never very optimistic about it anyway.

In this, I am in agreement with LVG. There is enough talent there, it just has to develop & stay healthy. A Hummels or Ramos would improve the play, but they aren't coming, while I've been rather unsure of Otamendi from the start, especially at the price mentioned. Of course, if the price for Otamendi came down, I can see us doing a deal, so what LVG said also serves as a negotiating ploy, but I honestly think LVG is happy enough with what we have already defensively.
 
:lol: at the guys who think they're being level headed in thinking our defence is good enough and anyone who thinks otherwise is spoilt or holding an agenda. I don't think Van Gaal is that stupid to really believe that either and I'm positive we'll bring in another centre back like Otamendi.

We've got a good promising defence but that's been the case for a long time. We need quality, no time to mess about like we have in the past. Smalling and Jones are good players but the pair, particularly the latter, can not be relied on. Evans is an average centre back and Rojo has it still all to prove. Then you've got unproven talent like McNair and Blackett, however the latter clearly isn't good enough (yet). We need a better centre back to partner Smalling.

You can show all the stats from last season showing how good our defence was but you just had to watch the match to see how shaky our defence was and how many times Dave bailed them out.

Time after time, shitty back pass after shitty back pass and he bailed us out.

It's like some on here only want to remember the spurs-city run from last year when talking about the defence. I don't see how you could think we don't need a centre back.
 
Because he is a bullshitter who only wants to troll us. He knows nothing. Just look last year in Di Maria case.

What utter nonsense. Jackson is a mainstream journo who regularly attends and is granted access to our pressers by the club. If you don't like his tweets then ignore them or avoid this thread.
 
Still here?

Why am I having these bad thoughts that we going to sell De Gea and end up keeping Valdes.

Entirely plausible this could happen. Valdes and LVG have always had a tempestuous relationship. To be honest, given the alternatives on the market, I'd be content with Valdes as No.1
