Just seen the Falcao loan deal. Thought you were paying him £300k a week and that was it, but you are paying Monaco £12m on top of that. £28m for a season of Falcao when you already have two superb strikers in Roon and RVP. Crazy. IS RVP going back to being a winger again? Herrera-Blind-Di Maria RVP Falcao Roon
Just seen on the Beeb the top 3 worst signings in the prem. 1. Andy Caroll 2. Fernando Torres 3. Djemba Djemba Why him?? He was crap, but he only cost 3.5 mill, thats chicken feed compare to the other two
Apparently he'll be on 346k a week - utter madness, for a position you don't need to strengthen in. Absolute quality player though, assuming he can recover from such a bad injury at his age. I guess he'll play up top with RVP and Rooney will drop to the number 10 role? But where does that leave Mata or Di Maria? You need a Midfield general and a CB - maybe you'll get both in the next hour or so?? But if not I have no idea what you're playing at
Sources close to me suggest you're ****ed off that United have started signing big name players! Do you think Falcao called his fat understudy to ask what the PL was like?
I think we will be fine. The reality is we have strengthenee everywhere but the goal keeper spot. The concern is more over how long it takes to click. 6 first teamers to come in together basically. And sky, van persie is going to have surgery and could be out for a while. Hence with hernandez and welbeck leaving, the signing makes perfect sense. The wage is 180k by all accounts.
The difference is we can afford it Skylarker. It's what comes from being the biggest club in the world and why we attract the best sponsorship deals. Or is the real reason a touch of envy?
I'm not envious - sure I'd like him at Liverpool, I think every club would want him. I would be slightly concerned he can bounce back from such a serious injury, if he does you've got one hell of a striker. My point is you're buying/loaning players that you don't particularly need. You need a Vidal/Kroos type player and another CB - then you'd be an amazing team.
Amazing Skylarker, with all that wealth of knowledge you should have put your point over when Moyes was sacked. think of the wages you would be on instead of LVG, and how much better off United would be with you in charge
