    Reus is going to Madrid.

    I think United will go for Depay. we were looking at Cuadrado in the summer according to reports but I would have always preferred Depay to him.

    I know, he's a fool if he does.

    I remember you saying something similar about Kagawa and Hazard :)

    You remember wrong then. I did say Kagawa was the better player at the time of signing. His record at Dortmund proved as much. Ive not said eithr of these two is better, just that I would prefer Depay.

    Think he would be better suited to the Prem.

    You definitely said you thought Kagawa would be the better signing.

    I've not seen Depay in fairness so won't comment but heard a lot of good things.

    I remember him saying that to mate, he also said that David the chosen one Moyes was 1st choice and would be another red nosed drunk and was better than Jose.

    Willian might not be so "attacking" but there is a good reason for it, he's playing a very disciplined role. In a way he does what Henderson does for us even if he is better than Henderson going forward. You may have scored more with a player like Caudrado but I suspect you'd concede more too and that's not Jose's way. He'd rather win 1 0 than 4 3

    You said many times that Kagawa would be the better signing, mocking Hazard as a project.

    Hazard was a better player than Kagawa when he was signed too.

    Never mind, if you spunk another £200m you may get into Europa league soon.

    Spend £60m on a fading Real reject midfielder/winger, and play him up front instead <laugh>

    Kagawa was a much better player than Hazard in the season before. Dortmunds POTY v some teenager who had done nothing in football? Pretty obvious as to who came with a bigger rep.

    Kagawa flopped. First season he was good but then under Moyes he was awful (though moyes is responsible in part).

    Do you need us to lend you a few quid seeing as Chelsea are skint? Who are you selling in the summer? Hazard is my guess.

    No, no he wasn't. It showed when they both came to the PL too. It's funny Dortmund let their 'best' player go for a measly £15m isn't it?

    As for bigger rep <laugh>. Hazard was one of the most sought after talents in the world and had multiple clubs to chose from. Kagawa was 2nd choice for UTD as he chose us.

    Hazard didnt choose Chelsea. You paid his agent more (6million <laugh>). and kagawa was in his last year. Dortmund made 14million profit on him so great business for them.

    Hazard may have been sought after but that doesnt mean his rep compared with a well established superstar of German football. Obviously when bith came to the PL Hazard went on to be the better footballer but before that he was playing in one of the continents worst leagues.

    Yep, I'm sure Hazard went to a club based purely on what money his agent pocketed. You still never showed me the proof of the agent fee btw, or did you get it from this secret on-line club you pay £15 a month for?

    Ligue 1 is not one of the continents worst leagues ffs <laugh>. Do you realise how many leagues there actually are?

    Anyway, Hazard is now a million times better than Kagawa and you were completely wrong... again!

    I showed you the proof at the time in the form of quotes and then a interview with SAF where he stated exactly why we ended our pursuit of Hazard.

    You will understand in the summer when Hazard laves just how much of a cretin his agent is.

    by the way, an agent being a cretin? No ****! Rooney's has been bending you lot over for years now. I'm sure Di Maria's got peanuts too.
