I'm terrified that United's official twitter will post a quote from Van Gaal along the lines of "I'm happy with my squad."
He's obviously not. I very much doubt Marcos Rojo was the difference between last weekend and challenging for the title!
 
There's a centre midfielder to come. Might not be who everybody wants, and could likely be a cheap-ass buy, but I cannot believe they won't buy one.

I can't believe we will go into the season without a no.7.
 
I care as much about Manolas to Arsenal, which also appears on the previous page.

This really isn't the thread to be uppity about content, unless it's come from a poor source.
It's not being uppity about content at all. This thread is about transfers and United only as has been stated time and time again by the mods.

I don't care much either about the Manolas to Arsenal tweets but at least that has it's purpose in being posted here. Non-transfer related Liverpool talk (especially changing fecking kit sponsors) is not.

If LvG can get us into the top 4 with this squad he is a miracle worker.

If United don't make the top 4 it'll cost the Glazers big style, so it's their call, invest now, or risk it.

Personally I expect one more defender, and a midfielder, not the foggiest who though sadly.
 
So now that we have Rojo who is next? Woodward has got to be kidding himself if he thinks that Rojo is it, he has to buy at least two more players before the window closes!
I think he expects to be congratulated by the fans on a job well done and feels proud and satisfied with having spent 75 million in one window.

Who knows...could be somebody out of the blue. I still have a feeling Benatia may happen.
 
Why are people now so certain that we won't be buying a midfielder? Which tweet led to the comments like the one above?

Because there is no sign that we're after one anywhere.

Ed probably thinks he got Fellaini last year and got Herrera this year so we don't need a new one.
 
Perhaps LVG thinks a defence consisting of Smalling, Jones, Rojo, Evans and Blackett is good enough? There are 3 injury prone defenders and one inexperienced defender. There have also been recent reports of us being in for another defender other than Rojo but who knows what is going on in LVG's mind?
Jones , smalling and Evans were shit last year and will be shit this . I cant stand chelsea and cant stand jose but the players he as that are good enough for his first team he keeps and the ones with potential he ships out on loan to either get experience or inflate there transfer value . Which IMO is the best way to go . Let's face facts here !! Jones , Evans and smalling were brought in to eventually replace rio and vida but they have not come good as we planned . Let's stop being stubborn and realise they cant step up and are squad players at best.
Let's buy a top draw centre half to play with rojo and ship smalling or jones out on loan to play regular .
The same goes with cleverley too .
We wont finish higher than last years top 4 teams with our current squad as it is .

im heartened by not hearing the old "our business is now complete".
I think we will go for di Maria and then wait till January and try to sign strootman .

Lucas Silva, 21 year old Brazilian DM has been linked to us, if we sign a midfielder, it will probably be him.
 
Poor Barney keeps diligently posting Liverpool related tweets on this thread, despite no one giving even a single feck.

#Liverpool set to make €15m loan offer for #Monaco's #Falcao, according to @mohamedbouhafsi. Automatic option to buy worth €65m. #LFC

@RBairner
Sorry - going to correct myself on #Liverpool/#Falcao bid. Purchase price will be €50m - total price will be €65m. #LFC

@RBairner
. @mohamedbouhafsi is arguably the most reliable source when it comes to transfers in Ligue 1. #Falcao #Liverpool

Yawn. Scholes has become a media whore. :(

How is it yawn? He potentially can bring information to the table not many would have the privilidge of knowing. The man has earned his opinion...and it's probably based on more fact than any journo could possibly hope for.

All he's done is slam United in pretty much every article he's written so far. It's the same anti United stance that Gary took at Sky, they take it way too far to not look biased.
