    And neither should they be unfortunately because people are pi**ed off with the clubs actions these players are being ridiculed and its nothing to do with them or their ability.

    Signing 2 young Man Utd coached lads.

    Have we stooped so low? <yikes>

    I seem to remember us doing quite well out of Man Utd signings, ie Brown, O'Shea, Bardsley to name but a few, so I'm not writing these kids off and will give them a fair go.

    Yep. Its just peoples frustrations over Kone.

    Never write of Man U products. They won everything with mainly kids.

    I'm more than happy to take a couple of their lads if they're being squeezed out by mega-buck signings.

    We didn't do too badly with Wes and JoS and they were a little past their sell-by date.

    These 2 lads have something to prove, imternational places to retain, and a manager who already knows them.

    What's not to like?

    We cant afford their good ones. The level at Utd is off the scale to us.

    They let a certain Pogba go, and now just forked out a world record for him.

    Paul Pogba may disagree!

    Pogba, Pique and Rossi. There's probably more, although to be fair, it is still very rare for them to let the diamonds go. The odd one will always slip through the net though.

    Danny Drinkwater, would we take him? Would we have been happy had we signed him before Leicester?

    Pogba, Bardsley... United do let players go who are easily good enough for us, let's hope these 2 are in that set.

    We need bodies regardless so for that alone this is a good thing, it's true, certainly my frustration isn't with the 2 lads but with the lack of movement on more established players.

    If the Kone contract situation is true, tied in with M'Vila, my disdain for those running the club is rocketing further.

    They are moronic, and have not the first clue about football.

    McNair needs work mate so he'd be better off sent out than loaned out imo, for his own good otherwise he'd just be thinking about his return and breaking into our squad.

    He's a very tidy ball playing centre half but often gets caught out further up the pitch and because he's not the quickest he needs to learn not to do it so often.

    Love is quality, for his age and he won't be shy if he's thrown straight in.

    To be fair, if we sell Jones and have Robson and Love as RB then we would still be better off as Love has got to be as good as Robson is already a better option than Jones.

    Then at LB, we have PVA and the other Robson.

    Almost word for word what I said about McNair mate, gets caught out of position and not good when ran at but useful with the ball.

    Could be developed for sure, learn from O'Shea and Kaboul hopefully.

    Kaboul in particular dictates where other defenders should go, shouting, pointing. He's very, very good at that, has leadership, can surely help McNair.

    Are we going for McNair or John Stones? Exactly the same description of both players!!

    These are good signings,There is nothing wrong with them. It sorts out or RB situation and cover at CB.

    Now all the club need to do is sort out the other first 11 positions that need work. The first priority should be Mvila, I expect he is coming and its all paperwork issues but lets hope its soon.,
