No comment

60 million could get you Khedira, a centre half and Blind. Easily. Then they'd be bloody terrifying.

Never said I wanted Di Maria, I said he is a good player, better than Lallana or Markovic as much as I know and if money was not an issue would have prefered him signed. We can't afford Di Maria but United can. He is not what United need the most but is an improvement over Young for sure.

-1 my friend... not necessarily an "improvement" on Markovix...

Smells a bit like Leeds United. Throw a lot of money into the team and hope for the best, sometimes it works like it did with Blackburn Rovers but hopefully they will do a Leeds :-)

If they get Di Maria, their team will likely be:

-------------De Gea--------------
-----Evans----Jones----Rojo------
Rafael----Herrera---Mata-----Shaw
--------------Di Maria-----------
-----------RVP-----Rooney--------

That team would be great going forward with the large number of attacking players, but defensively it still looks frail, and they lack depth with a lack of cover

Some papers this morning are reporting that the deal has stalled over the transfer fee - Real wanting £75 mil now. If it's true, it seems Real are testing the waters to see how desperate Utd really are

Anything over £30m for him and they've been mugged for me. So glad we didn't go down that route once Suarez went!

Bottom line, if LVG wants Di Maria, and UTD sign him, why would UTD fans /players/ manager care about price?

If we bought Messi for £150m or Suarez for £75m, I'd be happy enough - it's not my money.

I'd happily pay £100m to have Suarez back (ie pay £25m just to have been able to keep him for a couple of years more!)

To be honest, any strengthening of UTD is bad news and I hope it falls through - I hope all their deals fall through!

If united spent 60/65m on ie

Hummels
De Jong
Reus

That wud make them serous top 4 contenders

Am happy they r over paying for players

Fvcking great
