Sults, are you saying Cleverly,Young and RVP are better than Sneijder in the no.10 position?

I disagree completely.

You could probably make a case for RVP, possibly. But the other two have done nothing at all to be considered as good at playing in a central attacking midfield role as Sneijder, and I'm not particularly a Sneijder fan.
 
He was superb for a couple of years, and granted on a different level to some of players I mentioned in his preferred position. However, he is not remotely the same player he was a few years back. I would definitely pick any of the five players above him in my team on present form.

Yep we dodged a bullet as far as Sneijder is concerned.
 
Can you imagine what a non performer for 40m and 250k a week would look like in noodlespeak? SAF would have to go into hiding.
 
Nah, you're not quite a visionary. Lots of us didn't fancy him.

Didn't seem that way at the time. I remember getting a lot of stick over it and not many others were really backing me up over it.

Didn't need to be a visionary though, the question marks were there for all to see. I just think the name and potential price tag got most people excited and the rest didn't matter.
 
Funny how opinions have changed on Sneijder. I bet I was the only one that didn't want us to sign him for various reasons when we were heavily linked and the Muppets were in full force.

So you weren't the only one. That settles that.
 
I have nicer hair.

In fairness pocco, you were blowing your own trumpet a bit loudly there.
 
United Rant‏@unitedrant
Lewandowski to United? Obvious now that Fergie's answer to Barca is to become its antithesis. Barca: 4-6-0. United: 2-2-6
 
Because there aren't really good transfer-related tweets being hurled about at this time of the year. This place should be rocking again come early December.
 
Right folks. I've moved a few pages to a new thread for random transfer chat. Please keep this for Tweets only.
 
@BiHFootball: Manchester United is watching Ognjen Vranjes! This is confirmed by himself and the #Manutd scouts were watching him last game. #bosna #bih

Bosnian centre back. 22 years old. 6 caps. Playing in the Russian Premier League with Krasnodar.
 
I'll wait for the goal.com article calling him "the new Nemanja Vidic" before I get excited :smirk:

Does anyone know anything of him?

Yeah.

He's a Bosnian centre back, 22 years old and playing in the Russian premier league.
 
The Football agents are back on twitter, Football Source claiming we are after Walcott and will buy him once we sell Hernandez :)
 
He's alright, never been that impressed with him whenever I've seen him play for the national team. To be honest I don't think he's good enough for us. But then again, he's only 22, and he had good games against Lithuania and Greece during the last international break so you never know.

Can disclose that Man United has bought out DHL training kit sponsorship early to secure more cash after $559M Chevrolet deal
 
I just read an exchange from a protected tweeter who claims Hummels is our number one priority, with 'Stoke guy' being our back-up plan. He surely must mean Shawcross.
