All this nonsense shows how Fergie's reputation provided the club with an advantage over others on transfers.
Not in the last 4-6 years of his tenure it didn't.

Certainly better than changing your mind after signing them... ala Valdez. [HASHTAG]#progress[/HASHTAG]
When you look at the list of amateur fck ups over the summer by Utd, this really is the cherry on top.
True.
But then with the GGs he didn't have the money to spend. Or didn't want to spend
I'm done with posting until Woodward gets the players we really need ...........................................................................oh, wait a minute - Ed is in for another midfielder .... just what we needed..................
Manchester United are set to launch a bid to sign Southampton winger Sadio Mane, according to the Telegraph.
Southampton are understood to have received a surprise inquiry for United for the 23-year-old after they missed out on a deal to sign Pedro from Barcelona.
Ronald Koeman is ready to resist the advances of United for a player who scored 10 goals last season, including the fastest Premier League hat-trick.
What do you lot think of the Mane link? Exciting player but not the finished product yet, would also likely cost more than what Pedro would of.

May be Stones does not want to play park the bus football 100% of the time.
May prefer City as champions elect....
If Man Utd want them stars, they've got the muscle to do so. However, some players might, just be unavailable to buy. If I was you, I'd be more concerned about chasing Stones for £40 million![]()
Woodward and LVG have made 4 great signings, a couple of which were driven by them. But have a look at this which we can't get away from...
They wanted a centre-back they didn't get and now don't want another defender.
Our best goalkeeper wants to leave and isn't playing.
We couldn't hold on to our record signing, instead he chose to go awol and force a move away.
We need a striker but won't sign one.
We want a forward/goalscorer but Pedro is joining Chelsea.
It would be fair to argue it's another chaotic, ill-prepared transfer window with 13 days until deadline day.
Cesc Fabregas, Gareth Bale, Cristiano Ronaldo. Baines, Sneijder, Ramos, Kroos, Alacantara, etc say hi

He believes Chelsea were unlucky against City.We see stories about Santa Clause in the newspapers. Do you believe them too?![]()

Enough said!

For such an old man you are a very silly boy.
What **** ups? You strengthened the midfield with Schneiderlin and Bastien (excellent signings), added quality with Depay and Darmien looks a steal at £12 million. Everyone said you needed a new CB (myself included) but Blind and Smalling look good together.
Utd will always be linked with Bale, Ronaldo etc, but that was media speculation.
