Worst game I've seen in a long time.

Cabella is a trick pony if I've ever seen one too, least the under 13's will love him.

It was a disaster.

Hutton made Cabella look like a League 2 player and Hutton isn't exactly Cafu.

Felix Magath is the worst manager in the World.

United break UK transfer record to sign Di Maria.

Is it 70m?

I think he's more than worth it, Real made a mistake imo.

Madrid didn't really need him. Great player, but in the position United least need. All this means is one of RvP, Mata and Rooney can't play.

I don't think any player is worth more than about £1M tbh. But going by today's loathsome transfer fees, yeah, it's fair.

Di Maria will be the second Mata Utd have signed. He won't fit in at Utd just like Mata doesn't.

We called him the 'Blue Cafu' actually

PS I got your tweets and DM'd a reply (eventually). Though this is going back a couple of weeks.

I've been having issues with DMs, not sure why. Pretty much all that I've received in the last few months don't appear!

I'd still take him over Bale or James tbh. And they could easily be fit into the same side if it wasn't for Van Gaal's lopsided formation


Yeah, of course going by today's prices



WTF is Van Gaal trying to achieve exactly 3-man defence with 3 mediocre CBs, Young at WB...

Was never a fan of Bale, but he's so much better than ADM now IMO.

Mata scores for United. I'm fine with him scoring because the odd goal will cover up how dreadful he has been for the past 12 months, keep him in the side please!

I don't think that's the case, Di Maria was crucial to Real's success last season, especially in the CL

and Bale wasn't? Bale was involved in an incredible amount of goals and scored the winner in the CL!

lol, Gus, there's no way any player knows what he means by this.

Weird. I actually thought Di Maria and Modric were crucial to Real Madrid. Especially when they faced opposition who weren't going to get blown away by the sheer firepower.

Kroos and James will help in that regard though.

It's quite amazing to look at this United team and see only 3 players or so that would be a noticeably big upgrade on their Villa counterpart.

I didn't say Bale wasn't, I just thought Di Maria was more crucial and I personally prefer him over Bale.

£64m for Di Maria if true is absolutely obscene.

This is already Uniteds biggest spending window ever BEFORE Di Maria - yet apparently Moyes is **** and Van Gaal isn't. I wonder if when he spends £200m and they get top 4 if he'll be hailed as a genius, despite his embarrasing failure?

How is this their biggest spending window?? They look the same as last season... If not worse

They choked £30m+ on a fat 19 year old, mediocre English left back & also bought Herrera.

Oh & Rojo has joined but needs a permit which isn't secured to actually play

£72m on Herrera, Shaw and Rojo. They look the same because Herrera was terrible last week, Shaw is injured and Rojo hasn't played yet.

I think it's too early to call Shaw mediocre. He was phenomenal last season and injured at the moment, oh and he's not even 20.

Exactly and he struggles with his waistline that's only going to get worse over the next few years. That's pretty worrying.

JOVETIC!

RIP Liverpools season.

Can't wait to see Mario whinging in their shirt tbh.

I'll pay good money to watch the pr*ck ruin their season worse.

Yes, I had to hold back when he played for us, but he's a selfish, whiney little shite and I loathe him. He doesn't even compensate his personality with ability - he's just not that f*ckin' good overall. I'm overjoyed we've wiped our hands of the tw*t.

I also hate Liverpool again, now that they've sold Suarez and replaced with Balo. Call Suarez for his faults, but one thing he always did was given 100% in every match and often won them for Liverpool. Ditto Uruguay.

While Balo only showed up when he wanted to.

I can't wait for Scousers to start hating him.

Moyes was an unpopular choice so Utd's decline was blamed on him. LVG is a popular choice so Utd's continued decline is blamed on the players, and Woodward.

Moyes was the wrong choice, true, but there's no right choice for that club.

No one can replace SAF. All the more because he knew where his squad was headed.

PS Di Maria won't fit in at Utd just like Mata hasn't.

Great player, wrong team.

I'm loving Liverpool and Utd crumbling into disarray. Makes Milan's own failings not seem quite so awful. Sort of.

Nah, he is a truly extraordinary player and by today's absolutely abhorrent transfer fees he's up there with Rodriguez etc in terms of quality. Not quite a Ron, Suarez or Messi but an excellent player.

But tbh, the Luiz transfer showed that transfer fees are a total joke and completely trivialising money.

to early for that tbh... one loss does not end a season , but they looked so predictable reminded me alot of milan throughout the years..a bit under carlo a bit under allegri...and seedorf..

so glad man united are failing tho good ****.

QPR allegedly looking at Tim Sherwood as a possible replacement for Redknapp. Apparently they weren't happy that he failed to get automatic promotion last season, despite having a wage bill that dwarfed CL finalists Atletico Madrids.

Fans have started to turn on him as well after he, with his team 4-0 down in a London derby, waved to the Spurs fans after they started chanting "Harry, give us a wave". QPR fans tarting booing him as he did it. Not exactly surprising though, the man has never heard of the words "class" or "loyalty". Hopefully this is the end of him in football management!

MK Dons 1-0 United, awful error from Johnny Evans.

They're all over the place in defence, not that shocking to see them make so many individual errors

2-0. MK Dons strikers chested it in.

val Gaal has to go IMO. £75m spent and they look awful, just not cut out for this league.

3-0, van LOL

That is embarrassing for Man u.

This goal is great

United have had 1 shot on target v a lower league team. Ha.

4-0 lol

It took all of 3 games for van Gaal to make Moyes look brilliant.

lol really i hope he one day manages your team Have your self some class.

Your hatred for some people knows no bounds pretty disturbing tbh but its ok your behind a keyboard.

Lets counter it and i will say i hope Villa fail this season and get relegated...

What is the difference between an Aston Villa supporter and a baby? A: The baby will stop whining after awhile.

crash bam !

United have bought a gem of a player in Di Maria.

He was instrumental for Madrid and Argentina alike. He is not a flash player, an attribute you can give to CR or Messi, but he is the man orchestrating the moves. United will definitely be a stronger team with him in the ranks.

Very curious to see how influential he will be for them.

edit.

Wow. This is an argument that came out of nowhere. Seeing as kurt expressed his opinion on Harry in a pretty civil tone, I'm really not sure why this change in tone gets popped up.

If both you guys have a problem sort it out on PM please. Leave my forum boards alone.


Actually there shouldn't be a problem at all. You guys should GTFO and have a beer together and check out pretty girls. You'll be fine after that.

Yeah I'm gonna edit the post. I don't think I said anything out of order regarding Redknapp and 90% of the post was basically cut and paste from the papers anyway, not my own thoughts. What bothered me was he criticises me for something (that's nothing to do with him) then does the exact same thing labelling me with tags like "disturbing".

Agreed, but I think Van Gaal was just a mistake for them just like Moyes, his system clearly does not work and I can't see him budging on it. I wonder if he'll play Di Maria as a WB like he's doing with Young

Just a bit of banter matey i'm sure he can handle it.

But i would like to know his take on Liverpool and Harry and why he has a facet hatred with them. I'm curious.

lol i did not see the post before you edited it so thanks for that..

Liverpool is mostly a large portion of their fans being incredibly disrespectful. They defend Suarez throughout his racism, diving and biting. I browse opposition forums a lot and RAWK, their main one, is a vile place. Even some Liverpool fans who hold a minority opinion have insults hurled at them, it's quite ridiculous.

Redknapp is his lack of loyalty. He's spent silly money (not all his fault) at clubs to serve his own needs. It's easy to look a bit better when you spend a tonne, but when the money goes, he leaves the club. If you get sacked it's one thing, but to jump ship when a club is in trouble and you've helped put them there is just poor form. As for my perceived lack of class by him, it's like when he went to QPR he called out the whole squad saying they're overpaid, not good enough, etc. So he then goes and spends £10m and £100k a week on a centreback who was a pretty medicore EPL defender. The main thing though is his constant talking about other teams players. For starters by rule it's illegal, it's tapping up. He constantly does it and for Odemwingie to turn up at QPR, "uninvited" and say he knew nothing about it is quite ridiculous. The media love-in isn't his fault, it's just hilarious how people think he's good enough for England or a good manager. This is the same manager who needed the playoffs to get a team with one of the highest budgets in World football to get out of the Championship. Some people like him? That's fine, I personally can't stand the bloke or his sidekick Joe Jordan.

^^ Right. I understand your opinion.

Now Ry4n, if you want to debate, you can stick in and weigh in on the points kurt has presented with your own. But if you wish to go ad hominem on kurt's abilities of perception, I'm afraid that banter will have to go PM.

Thanks guys. Let's get a beer when I'm in town. kurt will arrange the girls. And since he's in Birmingham, there will be plenty of Indian girls with sexy Brit accents for me to go on the rampage.

P.S: Not that I don't like white girls/black girls/Hispanic girls/middle-eastern girls, just that I'm sure kurt's carved up his territory and .....
