Under Moyes, Kroos would have been what he wanted, pulling the strings alongside somebody like Carvalho. I think Van Gaal, however, wants mobility and a faster transition between attack and defence. Look, Kroos is outstanding, he is really is, but football teams are all about balance, and with Herrera I think he might just give us more of that, without being individually as good. Kroos isn't really renowned for through balls either, which is something our midfield must improve on.
That could be a result of the tiki taka style. It forces the opponents to backtrack and creates little space behind and between the lines for through-balls, making the wide pass the go-to pass. With his passing technique and vision, he should be able to make a cut-through pass if the space was there.

Agree about the mobility, though, I think that was what decided it for van Gaal.
 


He name checked Champions League football in his signing quotes, so I'm sure rejecting United will be a cheap angle a few will go for. If he did, I'm overjoyed. Don't think he's anywhere near the required quality.
 
Interesting. I'd 100% be willing to cough up £23mil on Carvalho.

Carvalho
Mata Herrera
Januzaj RvP Rooney​


It will end the Vidal speculation(shame) but I can't help but feel, long term, this boy will be a better bet.

Not necessarily. If the picture I saw the other day was anything to go by we could line up like this with a midfield diamond:

Rafa Jones New CB Shaw
Carvalho
Herrera Vidal
Mata
RvP Rooney​

If we get Carvalho, it won't stop the Vidal rumours.... Muppets be muppets. :lol:

Edit: The lack of pace could be devastating.
 
Just checked and 30m EUR is approx £24m. Similar price to what Chelsea got Matic for.

Still a lot but not crazy money.

:lol: And not a winger in site. :-) Great work. Sell Tony! :-)
 
i would rather get vidal than carvalho. Vidal is just too good. carvalho may/ may not make it. Also his name is Arturo Vidal:devil:

The team oozes class but I have a feeling it may struggle to provide the level of excitement we are used to as United fans. As much as people moan about wing play (yes it's been shit recently) when it's good wing play, it's so fecking exciting.

I hear you about Arty Vidal. Perhaps we are just flirting with Carvalho?
