Transfer Rumours MEDICAL !!

Yeah think that's my point - from the (admittedly few) times I've seen him play he strikes me as a prima donna - bags of talent though - prima donna's when you're fighting for top 6 are OK (Ronaldo was a prima donna too) He's certainly doesn;t strike me as something we need at the moment - although he couldn;t do much worse than AJ!

He'll get you goals, without a doubt, but he'll probably cost you goals as well. He's not got the passion to get back and defend, I think he'd thrive long term on our left with Luke Shaw, because Shaw is class, he doesn't need the additional cover that somebody like Blind or Darmian (who's a RB naturally) need.

I'm looking down the league and struggling to see where we could send him where it wouldn't adversely affect us, I'm seeing WBA as the obvious choice, maybe Chelsea if we take Hazard <laugh> ... maybe Southampton if we take Mane. There's not many, he's probably gonna stay here.

WBA have James McClean man - they don;t need Januzaj! <whistle>

We have enough players costing us goals but not enough scoring them - so maybe taking him off you would be a good thing!!
 
No it's not a fact. The Belgian coach said he kept 'nutmegging' his team mates in training and that lead to him being isolated as they all spat their dummies out. He's a young lad with bags of talent, he just needs a very good coach to sit him down and teach him how to apply it. If Fergie was still in charge of United things would be very different, LVG doesn't believe in youth like Fergie did.

The media have reported that United 'Didn't want him back', bullshit.

Not sure he'd be a great asset to have in a relegation fight, aged 21... probably not the answer right now.

To change the subject slightly, maybe different in training but I love it when players do fancy stuff and make their opponents look fools. The "fool" should just accept it and try not to let it happen again. You see some instances where it's nearly caused a riot - what's all that about? A player using his skills to get the better of his opponents - thought that was the whole point.

It is - but I've also seen top league players take the piss out of non-league players when already comfortably winning which, if I was on the non-league side, I'd be taking a red just to stop them doing it! All well and good to make someone look a fool by bettering them to try to win a game - but to do it when the games won against far lesser opposition is disrespectful IMO

Nothing wrong with a bit of tekkers and improvisation to beat a man, but when the gulf in class is substantial I agree with Marcus it's borderline disrespectful.

Cazorla did it to a young keeper last season IIRC, chipped him to make it 7-0 or something daft, the game was won, it was humiliating for the 15 year old goalkeeper (not sure how young he was!). I bet that kid had a little chuckle when Cazorla fluffed that one at WBA late last year and they ended up losing.

Zidane was the master of this for me, knew when to turn it on and it was never against the **** teams, it was always to win the mind game.

C-Ronaldo does it far too much.
