    Why are we buying another midfielder? Why aren't we strengthening up front or at the back?

    How's come?

    We have sold one player who threw his toys out the pram because we wouldn't give him a ridiculous deal. We have brought in 4, they've brought in the following...

    Elliott Bennett - Undisclosed
    James Vaughan - £2.5m
    Steve Morrison - Undisclosed
    Ritchie de Laet - loan
    Bradley Johnson - Free
    Anthony Pilkington - £2m

    Yes, Enrique is off, but we've known this for ages and we can't sign someone until he goes. Barton might stay, we don't know yet. We need a striker but considering the business being done by the rest of the league we are definitely not in dire straits yet.

    didnt have much of a chance at man u, certainly better than bebe though! hes got nice touch and he looked good before he came to man u. maybe hes had a difficult time trying to break the first team. still hes a decent replacement for routledge

    We're actually after Obertan?! Would like to see him get a run and some confidence before I judge him tbh.

    None of the options fills the attitude I have towards it.

    Disillusioned. Unexcited. May fit the bill.

    Hes obviously a good enough player to get Man U to buy him....but he has done the square root of **** all their.

    Always give players a chance though.

    Viva La France...!

    You dont get a contract at Man Utd for nothing, the boy has potential, give him a chance.

    The lad has the potential to be great and I think him bombing down the right will be great

    Yeah, they were all sh**e, but my point was that they obviously had potential and I think we should just give Obertan a chance before we judge him
