    Before the transfer window closed, people said some of our players wouldn't get into the likes of Arsenal's team, that myth has been vanised once and for all.

    I would say 5-6 of our players would get into their team, the likes of Di Maria and RVP are just 2 players.

    Di Maria/Rooney are the only two I'd stick in our first 11.

    I'd have Rooney at 10 instead of Oscar but not Fabregas so depends on who we played centre mid with Matic.

    Di Maria definitely and a couple of others are of course close. Costa, RVP, Falcao are all in similar class so that's debateable.

    Arsenal play 1 up top so you'd certainly not get all of the last 3 in their side.

    That would change if they had good strikers rather that garbage.

    Same applies to chelsea before the summer.

    Now that's changing the implied rules. The point was how many of your players would get in their team. They play 1 up top. Now re-do your answer and see me after class!

    The only Utd player I'd want at Cardiff is Rafael so we could complete the set. Don't we get bonus points for that?

    They play one because they are all garbage.

    They only played 1 even with the invincibles. Stop trying to shoe horn in players cos you have an imbalanced squad ;)

    you are talking to racist Chelseascum so dont expect anything ordinary

    of course i cant post on thier page as the dumb chelscum mods ae too scared to hear the truth....The most boring team ever to win anything...with a manager they all hated years before...

    thing is as bad as man Utd fans all live in Surrey.,,Scummer fans all live in asisa and Japan...... I see them every day ! must be embarasing for the most op[enly raciist club in the Prem..to rely on fereignerers money?

    ask them what the ave crowd was Pre-roman...

    Waste of a decent piece of land in London..are there players gonna be scared again this season..i sincerely hope UTD hammer them...<ok>.

    I think it was a good deal all round considering he wasn't getting much game time with us. Could bite us in the arse though considering all the talent you've brought in, but I can't see him playing every single game with Rooney, Di Maria, Falcao and RVP there too.

    Ignore the inane pikey above me.

    i know its early days but 8 goals in 10 games suggest that you might regret it.

    Oh dear Queenslander, something vexes thee? Not sure what time it is in Oz, but did the wife stay out all night, and you had no four x in the fridge.
    Or did Skippy drag you out on a wild goose chase?

    Agree with you, you got good money for him, and replaced with a quality goal scorer

    I don't think you can just look at how he performs for United in isolation.

    We just need to see how we perform and how the money we raised was invested in the next couple of seasons to judge whether it was a good decision or not. Mata could score 30 goals and get player of the year but if we win the title with players bought in from the sale of Mata (and others) it would be good business for us.

    Far too early to judge who has come out best in this deal.

    Early indication is he'll be a decent player for you and we invested wisely in the likes of Costa, Matic, Fabregas with the money from the Mata and Luiz deals.
