Soccer The Manchester United SUPER Thread

[MatstaDogg]

From what I was reading earlier is AC Milan have brought a replacement for De Jong so hopefully that means we have been lucky enough to get him. I won't get excited til i see something more concrete.

 

[S4Sonny]

Haha :roflol:

 

[S4Sonny]

Here's a list of clients who are being managed by 'Super Agent' Jorge Mendes

Looking at that, I would love to have João Moutinho, who also happens to currently be at Monaco

 

[MatstaDogg]

Lol nice one, u can tell that's exactly what he is thinking.

 

[S4Sonny]

Happy for Chicharito, hasn't looked this happy for a while

Hope he does well for Real Madrid, they've got themselves a hard working and unselfish player who can bag a ton of goals when given playing time

 

[S4Sonny]

Radamel Falcao's flight is due to touch down in about 25mins (5pm Manchester time) according to various sources

He will then undergo a medical before signing the necessary paperwork

 

[S4Sonny]

The genius of Ed Woodward..

Juventus refused to sell us Arturo Vidal, so Woodward loans Chicharito who was a Juve target to Real Madrid then goes ahead and signs Radamel Falcao who was also a Juve target

Nobody messes with Woodward, don't f*ck around!

Anyways, I'm off to bed and hoping when I wake up we would have signed Nigel de Jong and sold Tom Cleverley

 

[S4Sonny]

Here are some stats.. what a deadly combo they will be

 

[S4Sonny]

And to think back a year ago, we signed Fellaini on transfer deadline day at the last minute.. and here we are today, talking about signing Falcao at the last minute

The difference in the caliber of manager does wonders

Also, Sky Sports News have said that Manchester United shouldn't be affected by the FFP in anyway because of the commercial deals we currently have so it's very much Manchester United loaning Falcao and being cautious due to him coming back from a ligament injury

 

[S4Sonny]

Radamel Falcao has now landed at Manchester Airport, 5:48pm (BST), the player is now en-route to Carrington for his medical

 

[S4Sonny]

Manchester United are soon to become Latin America United

We will have a host of players being able to communicate with each other in Spanish; David De Gea, Marcos Rojo, Ángel Di María, Juan Mata, Ander Herrera, Antonio Valencia and soon to be Radamel Falcao

 

[S4Sonny]

Here's some information of what I know so far regarding Radamel Falcao;

- Falcao turned down a number of offers from clubs around Europe to join Manchester United, even without Champions League football

- Just a medical and personal terms to agree with Falcao, all a formality with confirmation set to be released in a couple of hours

- Falcao will now take up residence at the Lowry Hotel along with Di Maria, Rojo, Blind, Herrera and Shaw until property is sourced​

Yeah lads, party in the Hotel lobby tonight! :cool:

 

[S4Sonny]

Think Falcao will be our last signing of this transfer window

No talks of anybody else coming in before the transfer deadline.. which is a shame, really really really wanted the club to sign Nigel de Jong

There's still 4hrs 30mins to go, so lets wait and see.. fingers crossed

 

[S4Sonny]

Radamel Falcao has now arrived at Carrington, he is in one of these two vehicles travelling into the training ground

 

[S4Sonny]

According to Sky Sports News, the latest on Tom Cleverley is Everton are now interested in his services

Everton want a loan, Manchester United want to offload him permanently (no shit) and talks are still ongoing

Of course, Aston Villa's bid have already been accepted it's just a matter of Cleverley agreeing to the wages being offered which could also become a obstacle for Everton if they do wish to sign him permanently

Maybe Rooney can play that box to box midfield role now that we have Falcao

 

[S4Sonny]

Maybe Rooney can play that box to box midfield role now that we have Falcao

Definitely want Rooney to have a crack at that box-to-box midfielder role, been saying that since last year when it was obvious we needed somebody to fill that role but Moyes never had the balls to give Rooney orders

Rooney has the work rates, we all know he can pick out a pass plus he constantly back tracks and puts in a solid tackle to help out our defense when playing as a striker

Will be interesting to see how he'd react if van Gaal demands him to play that midfield role, we all know he had a falling out with Sir Alex after van Persie signed and on occasions Rooney was forced to play in the midfield but I think he'll be more willing to do that now that van Gaal has made him Captain and has put a lot of trust into Rooney

Some Falcao photos while we await the news to become official that he's a Manchester United player

[S4Sonny]

Contrary to some reports, Falcao will not be on £346,000/week but instead a basic £180,000/week plus bonuses

This is according to Guillem Balague, who regularly appears on Sky Sports News and happened to be the guy that broke the Di Maria story to Man United as well as breaking down his transfer fee etc

 

[S4Sonny]

Both Ajax and Sky Sports News have confirmed the signing of Daley Blind to Manchester United, we're now just waiting official confirmation from Manchester United but as you realise, they're a bit busy finalising the deal for Falcao
