Very few of Arsenal or Liverpools players would get in our team. We even managed to flog that cart horse Welbeck to Arsenal. The only 2 sides that are stronger on paper than us is City and Chelsea, and that's because they have better defenders. Our attacking players are at the very least comparable with there's
We will see. Yaya will be anonymous this year and blinds played against better players, coming out as the winner. I mean yaya got overrun by barcelona midgets. Many times. Big doesnt mean better Ask the fro.
Of course not otherwise Shaw, Rooney and Anderson would be the top 3 players in the world Seriously though, Yaya is bigger and far far technically superior to Blind, as is Matic. Blind's been coasting in a **** league as well. Lets see how good he is playing twice a week at least in the P.L over a few months.
Yes. A good indication of the strength of a team. Last season, most teams had more players that could get into United's team (if that makes sense) rather than vice versa, never mind the top teams. Fingers xed (no I am not overexcited by the QPR result) we can go at any ground playing for a win
Portugal is a far superior league to Holland and Matic was player of the year out there. He was one of the best players in the league for the last few months after he signed in Jan as well so we know he can cut it. Yaya didn't warm the bench at Barca. I watched him first hand when we played them in a C.L semi. We all know the Spanish clubs under rate holdings mids too (which he was pigeon holed into at Barca due to the other mids they had). Real sold Makalele in his prime to us for about 15 million FFS!! Can't remember anyone wanting Blind till you got a Dutch manager. Wasn't it all about Pogba, Carvalho and the other guy at Juve? Seems Blind was far from first choice.
Hmmm i dont know about the portugese league being stronger. Fairly equal really. The portugese sides have performes better in europe mind. Not that it indicates anything. Blind was also poty. Twice. In a row. Blind could turn out ****e bit i suspect he will be a very good and very important addition. Better individually than some? Who knows. Not right now but in time he could be. Settled pretty well in game 1.
