How stupid are Manu?

[bizzaro]

I am fine with that. I am 35 years old now, started supporting us when I was 9 years old. I saw us be rubbish, then fantastic, then we're rubbish again.

It's someone elses turn to dominate English footy now - I'll enjoy the ride whatever happens. And we're still signing the likes of Di Maria so it's not all doom and gloom!

 

[Jim Lahey]

I agree, however you need CL next term as a minimum and you have some MASSIVE spending to do as I can't see anything coming through your once famous ranks.

Van Gaal knows what he's doing. We're simply too huge a club to disappear into the abyss, as much as you lot would love that! I can't blame you either, when you win everything for decades, it gets tiresome for opposition supporters. But I've had some amazing times following United, the Camp Nou in 99 will stay with me forever, such a thrilling evening.

I'm not a spoilt Utd supporter, we can't expect success year in, year out. But anyone who thinks we'll simply fade away is just basing that on personal wishes rather than facts. No one really knows what is around the corner. But I'm quietly confident we'll be back in the CL the season after this.

We have some very good businessmen in charge and some of the deals they strike up are amazing. We'll need CL footy sooner or later, yes. But if you look at clubs like Spurs and Liverpool, they've done pretty well without it for a long time. We're investing now, the owners have had a wake up call. The money is there and we're spending it like no-one's business.

A few more additions and we're good to go. I am excited about the future.

 

[Jim Lahey]

Yep, EJECT! Good one! Now tell me about Everton's exciting future and huge stadium you're planning on building? Plus CL football and trophies?

Oh...

Oh...

Three words for you.

Walton. Hall. Park.

 

[roydo]

Will be an interesting ride either way mate. You reckon you would have had to pay £65m or whatever it ends up as for Di Maria if you had CL?

 

[Jim Lahey]

I'm not going to argue with an Everton supporter about trophies, CL football and success anymore. The irony is too much.

Low blow!

Yeah. Just make sure you're wearing a parachute.

No, we are paying over the odds for everyone now mate because Fergie was too stubborn and wouldn't freshen the squad up. He honestly thought that Cleverley etc was the future and we're now paying for it.

 

[Tramps_mate]

I really think United should have just spent 67 million trying to replace Ferdinand, Vidic and Evra instead of a winger..

Fair play mate. My thoughts exactly. Do the Glazers set budgets and stuff, or just take their cash out when it suits them? Wrongly worded. Do they actually run the club, or just own it, if you get my drift?

 

[bluemangroup]

Doesn't seem a great deal of strategy over there at the moment.

We desperately need a good wide player. Valencia and Young are hopeless.

Rumours are that we'll end up lining up like this when/if everyone is fit:


---------------------------- De Gea ---------------------------

Rafael ------------ Evans ----------- Rojo ---------------- Shaw

-------------------------- Carrick -----------------------------

-------------- Herrera -------------- Di Maria ------------------

-------------------------- Mata --------------------------------

------------- Rooney ---------- Van Persie ----------------------



Not too shabby.

Yes, and don't forget to tell us how great looking your ex was.
