LOL @ Messi

 

If Falcao's Copa America is anything to go by, then I'm in total agreement with lil' e.


Also. SANCHEZ.

Falcao could be successful again, but right now he can't even get into the Combian side & isn't convincing when he does play.
He's a good support player if he gets enough game time & service. I do think some of his poor form at United was to do with the way he was asked to play.

 

Not his injury?

 

I said some of his poor form. He was obviously only recently recovered from a serious injury at the time, but he should be over that now. He needs game time to try & get back to something like how he was, but game time is no good if the team doesn't play you to your strengths once you're on the field.

Falcao at United spent too much time coming to find the ball & holding it up for others when he should have been going towards the goal more waiting to receive passes.
Alan Shearer said when he was out of form the best advice he got was "we should always see your number". Falcao didn't do that, the question is was that because he was trying too hard or because LVG told him to play the way he was playing?

 

United's formation and style of play never really suited Falcao; he's an old fashion goal hanging, target man.

 

Seems there is a mistake in the FIFA rankings. England are in the top 10.

 

yeah, and so is Wales.

 

Schweini to ManU apparently a done deal. Sad day for Bayern, if you ask me. And not something that is going to make Pep very popular with fans.

Really good bit of business by United.

 

If he can stay fit he's a quality player who brings the steel to midfield they have lacked for a long time (and the drive they lack when Carrick is not around).
Now....get a decent striker.

 

Schweinsteiger could be a huge signing, a,says loved him as a player. If he can stay fit he will be great.

Still hope we add Schneiderlin too though.

 

Schweiny confirmed. That escalated quickly. Great signing and great addition to to the league.

 

United have also put in a bid for Muller.

 

Depay - Great signing for United
Schweinstieger - Great signing will help Blind develop alongside Carrick and is a sound replacement for Carrick for the next 3 years at least


Muller is a cracking striker and would be a great signing if they get him
Ramos is still not out of the question either.
Schneiderlin is also on the cards too.



They need to step up their game this season if these all come off as their fans will demand the title based on the squad they would have.

 

Müller is the one player I'd love to see play in England. More so than anyone else. I think he'd be phenomenal over here.

 

His corners are the best

 

I'd love Muller but no way Munich sells us two players in one window. Maybe next year.

Sterling £49m deal agreed with City. Great negotiating by City.

 

I'm delighted with £49m for him, especially if there are bonuses on top of that depending on performance.

Does mean I won't have Sterling in FM 2016 though, which sucks.

 

Not if they sign Benteke.

Also I believe QPR get around £10m from the deal.

 

49 million is great business, he's not worth close to that. And now his career will stutter. Silly boy, but money!!

 

Sterling? No he was on 30k. He refused a substantially higher amount a few months ago.
