So, no 3G all day again, just heard the Vidal news :(
Anyone know who our targets are for deadline day? Surely a midfielder, surely

There hasn't been any Vidal news apart from a Tweet with him saying Juventus are ready for their first game
We all seem to be running out of ideas. Maybe big surprises on Monday!
 
What do you mean by Woody's incompetence. He brought four first team players in positions we were weak, something we never did before, broke british transfer record for a man of the match in the last CL final, spent 130m pounds and now as it looks like started to offload the deadwood.

Woodward did great work in this transfer window there is no doubt about that. Yes we are still weak in some areas, especially in midfield but it was stupid to expect that we can buy more than half new first team in one transfer window.

The transfer window is still open and we could still bring some new players in but even if we don't this is one of the best transfer windows ever for United.

Top post.

The satisfaction transfer muppets feel when we sign a player can be measured in seconds these days. Also, if we're not bringing in every top name we've been linked to, regardless of who's been brought in, they'll consider it a failure.
 
How's that? After signing Shaw and Herrara in June which were done last year anyway, he went missing for two months. Now we are scrambling.
Nothing to do with the manager wanting to have a look at the squad first then?

Took too long to bring players in. We have already dropped 5 points, against teams we should be beating, due to this.

Also, overpaid for the three players we have bought.

Should have bought at least another CD and another CM by now - the deadline is Monday!!

Is that, that easy ?

The man didn't have a manager until mid July, and it took him less time to sign Rojo than Chelsea and Man city needed to sign Diego Costa or Mangala.
He found a club for Anderson, but the player refused to sign.

There is no pleasing some of you. I suppose its Woodys fault for waiting til LVG told him who he needed and didnt need. He should have just bought whoever he wanted back in July.

Definately over paid for Fellaini and arguably the other two as well but your second sentence is perhaps harsh on Woodward. Van Gall pretty much said he wanted to assess the playes and at lunch he told them some will go some will come and now they know there targets etc etc. The world cup and tour of America has been awkward circumstances. I hope we have something lined up, as all the transfer talk is outgoing players, would people really be happy if we culled these players BUT signed Blind and De Jong for example as though I agree its about time dead wood was culled, I dont agree that cullin gthem and signing these two players makes us stronger at all?
 
Signing Ozil instead of Higuain was not clever. Arsene has cocked it up not getting in a top striker regardless of the Sanchez transfer.
Higuain isn't a top striker and How did Perez manage to sell him for 40m for Napoli is beyond believable. Wenger isn't that stupid.
 



Confirmed output Chicharito Manchester United. Within hours to meet his new team

That's actually a good source, I don't think Grupo Formula would have a reason to just create a Chicharito rumour out of nothing. Shame to see him walk.

If you hadn't noticed, we've bought 4 players this window, people moan when we don't spend, moan when we do - on top of that we've had a lengthy injury list and a new manager trying to assess his squad and instil his ideas
 
Don't.take.the.bait.
 
Regarding Vidal, is it possible that Juventus themselves have concerns over his knee and have tried to flog him all summer.

The majority of the stories about him have come from Italian/Chilean sources.

Didn't realise Woody was in charge of squad selection, training and substitutions. Our lacklustre start lies with the players and LVG.

We had the same crap last year with everyone blaming Woodward. He can only sign players the manger asks for and the selling club are willing to negotiate over. At no point have we shown any real interest in Vidal yet Ed is being blamed for not signing him. It's fairly obvious LVG wasn't willing to spend until he had fully assessed the squad. He said that would take around a month, and after that month was up we have been signing players relatively quickly with minimum fuss.

There's no way Gill or Fergie would have sanctioned these signings. Yes we may have over paid slightly but that is down to our neglect of the first team over the last 3-5 years and teams taking us to the cleaners as they know we have to sign for certain positions. I'd also argue we've only overpaid for Shaw, we had no control over Herrera's fee due to the buyout clause, same with Rojo, by all accounts Woodward brought the ADM price down by 10-15 million too. Plus United have always paid premium for players.

The Woodward jabs and jokes have become more tiresome than Anderson is fat jokes.
