    Sort of player that can make any team better. Deserves his chance to play at the highest levels...won't always be flashy, but you'll discover that your defenders mysteriously become more competent with him on the pitch.

    I'll be happy when it's confirmed on the United website

    Always the pessimist <laugh>

    Bbc confirms it really. Surprised sky have some random Golf win on the yellow ticker though.

    Apparently there were photos of his blood sample in a bag with Schweinsteigers going about earlier <laugh>

    A realist <whistle>

    BBC have only said that it's on the cards, not that it's a done deal.

    The best thing about these signings (and I include all 4) is the statement of intent it sends to CBs like Otamendi and Ramos, as well as CFs like Benzema or Cavani or Lacazette if he's any good.

    And the rest of the football world. From no midfield a few years ago to about 4 different variations.

    I don't doubt the deal is there, but "On Sky now" amounts to one sentence...

    Southampton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin is set to complete a move to Manchester United, according to Sky sources. More to follow.

    "Sky sources" being what they just saw on the BBC site <laugh>

    He is very ITK. Hopefully with the squad you are building it won't be a boring Prem league this season.

    It should be better than last year, Chelsea will definitely strengthen, Arsenal will be stronger and we have improved the squad a lot. **** knows what City are going to do.

    Probably spend some of the £500m their owner found in his back pocket.

    Great signing for you this. Leaves a couple surplus to requirements though, notably Herrera imo.

    Disagree on that. Herrera just moves up to a number 8.

    Leaves Carrick and Di Maria vulnerable though.

    I don't think Carrick is vulnerable, he's just old!

    I have a slight concern that LVG has always seen Carrick as the central defender in a back 3 but never got the chance to implement that part of his Feelossofee last season due to Carrick's early injury and the lack of midfielders.

    I think Mata is vulnerable. I don't think LVG is a fan, too slow.
