Rojo hardly impressed me at the World Cup. Mediocrity club going for an average player. We have become Liverpool of 2010/2011.

Not signing player?
"Brilliant player, so gutted."
More than likely signing player?
"Not good enough. My uncles Spanish mate said he's shit!"

I can, he's shite
More like the Liverpool of 2014/15.
Sounds about right.
Yeh ! The good old jack of all trades but masters of none !
Someone else signs player - "why weren't we in for him? Could definitely do a job here"
We are about to sign player - "Do a job for us? We need players that are top class!!"
We don't necessarily need an outstanding player, there's may be 2 defenders who might be available and could be called outstanding. As long as he fits the bigger picture, stays healthy that's more than enough to pay money for.
He actually had a good tournament, however its besides the point since he played out of position anyway
ChileVision time.
Watching the Rojo interview, will translate it 100% accurate, with no names added in that are not there, and with no BS.
The fact that Blackett looks one of our best defenders at the moment tells you all you need to know about our current defence, Rojo will be a decent transfer imo.
Yup.
Signing players who had a good world cup
"Always risky to sign players on a good WC"
Signing players who had a bad world cup
"Saw him in world cup, didn't impress. Shows how far we've fallen as a club"
Appreciated mate.
I don't think the only alternative to signing players who've had a good World Cup is signing players who had a bad World Cup. Besides, the saying relates to players who have come from absolutely nowhere to impress at a tournament.
Great so we are finally going to sign somebody and.....he is nowhere near the quality we need!!!!
Which centre-halves should we be signing exactly?
Was against this signing. I had seen him at the WC and in a few games previous and didn't like him very much.
But, who am I really? And, at the end of the day, we are hilariously short on numbers at the back so just sign someone!

Stop being so fussy people.
You just know these same people would go mad at Woodward if he doesn't sign him, or at the Glazers if we sign no one. No pleasing some people.
If LVG wants him then that's enough for me.
You have missed the point I think. People are seemingly going off this deal because he isn't a big name player and without any reason. Sly the only one who watched him regularly rates him pretty highly.
don't take comments over here too seriously mate. Only time will tell if rojo will be a good signing if he signs for us after all.
What a welcoming lot we are. Welcome to OT Marcos, we think you are shit and didn't really want you but beggars can't be choosers. Poor lad. 
We need bodies. He will be fine.

With all the Liverpool rumours pre-tournament, I started to dislike him as he was already one of them in my eyes. Glad he's turned that round at least...

I was being sarcastic!
Here is Marcos Rojo's Lisbon Sporting TV full interview:
Disclaimer; It's not a WUM, I made it up completely, but I like it, and someone else might do too.
Rojo: I've called this interview to say sorry to all the Sporting fans for my actions last week. My actions were brought about because I have recieved an offer to go to play for Manchester United, Sporting is a massive club, but I believe I am ready to make the step up to the biggest club in the world.
I had a previous deal that I could be released for 15m Euros, but the new president said it wasn't contractually binding. I was advised by Doyen sports to go on strike, and I followed through with that in the hope it would mean I could leave.
I did not wish to disrespect the club, the owners, the fans or my teammates, but this move is a dream come true.
Inteviewer: Why have you made the choice to move to Manchester United?
Rojo: United is obviously the biggest club in the world, they have world class players, and a world class manager, the project they are building there has me interested, and I want to fulfil my dream of winning the Capital One Cup.
Interviewer: Have you recieved any assurances that Manchester United will be back in the Champions League next season?
Rojo: Yes! I have spoken to Angel Di Maria, and he told me he will see me in Manchester, to be joining the club with one of my fellow Argentines is a huge boost, not to mention the fact that United have a big Spanish presence already, and with the incoming arrival of Vidal that will soon be even stronger. Me, Di Maria, Vidal, Mata, Herrera, Chicharito, De Gea, it's going to be a Fiesta! Adios Sporting! En Vamos en Manchester.
/WUM
Right, that didn't seem to have anything to do with what you posted or what I replied though.
Yawn.
Well if you can't understand it then it's not my problem.
Meltdown
This is hilarious. He's staying at Sporting
Are people finding that funny? Christ.
Unbelievable
Fox Soccer just published on facebook that Bentinia is on his way to Manchester to join us?
Wait......He's staying?!?!
You have got to be joking me.........
You have got to be joking me.........
For gods sake. After all that. Right Woodward out.
Another one bites the dust.
It's either laugh or get depressed at the stern reality. We're beyond parody now. An utter joke.
Woodward you IDIOT!!!!
