Manchester United Thread

Unbelievable! 2 Players we have been linked with go to West Ham? Huh?

Never mind no new faces, looks like us doing well in the UEFA is out of the Window.

Someoone in the United staff need shooting for letting this double cooup of masc and tevez go. We needed a midfielder and striker and what better payers than these two youngsters. I forgive someone if Reo-coker comes but I cant see us signing anyone today as there is no one left to sign thats worthy of a United shirt. Not a great start to the day :(

Unbelievable how have you lot missed out on these two, although with Rossi going on loan till January a striker has to come in!
 
if it`s true about the two heading to WH,lets see how well they play (will they fit in?who speaks spanish at WH?)good for the hammers!
 
I cannot seriously believe two hot prospects such as Tevez and Mascherano would go to West Ham when bigger clubs are calling. I know it looks like its only a loan, but why West Ham?

But what if no big clubs came calling, because they didnt think the team needed improving?

The pair's rights are owned by Media Sports Investment, a British-based company with financial involvement in Corinthians. MSI were linked with a takeover of the Hammers last season.

Looks like the Hammers have struck a deal with MSI.

Oh and:

but it is understood that Corinthians' masterplan is to loan the players to a Premiership club this season in the hope of attracting a mammoth bid from either United or Chelsea next summer.

Makes sense. Loan a couple of hot prospects into a team like West Ham and they'll probably shine alot more.

So SAF thinks we will do well with the squad we have got? Im not so sure.

We saw what happened last season it wasnt great was it? The squad isnt radically different from last term.

Yes that makes sense. But why didnt one of big teams just loan them out to see how good they really are, and if not dont buy them at the end of season. Well man I say someone needs to get sacked in our scouting system or board because they obviously not doing their jobs properly. Thats Senna, Hargreaves and now Mascherano and tevez United have now missed out on because of share incompetence in the transfer market. I am officially pissed off.

The people at FCChelsea are destroying their own team.
Wait and see, the same thing that happened to real madrid will happen to them.
Players will start being unhappy, and bring bad moral in the team.Drogba was almost ready to go, if chelsea gets tevez next year, he is out of there.There are other occasions where you see chelsea doing this(why does chelsea need ballack? :roll: ), and i don't think the constant give and get every now and then is good for the team.
 
they were linked with Man Utd and Arse, so maybe Abramovich did have something to do with. Offer them shit loads of money to not go to our rivals.
 
Arrrggghhh. Screw this. I've waited so long, I dont care who we get. I dont care if we dont get anyone at all. We kinda always knew we werent gonna sign anyone else and I think its staying that way.

I think I'd rather see my team bust their ass and fight with the squad we already have. If its anything other than a Tevez or a Mascherano, I dont wanna know.
 
Mascherano AND Tevez to West Ham???

One word "unbelievable"

How can a club like West Ham attract these two world class players? If Abramobitch has something to do with this, then this is an all-time low from the Chavs.
 
yup, i am shocked.

i wouldn't care if they went to a bigger club, but i don't see what west ham have to offer them. they won't even be playing against the top clubs in the CL making this move, so what good is it to their career's?

definitely something fishy going on and they both probably got a lump sum from abramovich to take this deal.

That's a pretty poor attitude there runeEdge, you've given up on your team after only 3 games.

Uhh...I just gave my support regardless of who they sign. :roll:
I said I dont care who we sign. I'd rather see the current side play cuz its enough potential there anyway IMO.
 
HAHAHA! i cannot believe all this bollocks!

There is absolutely no proof that this has anything to do with abramovich? I think it's pretty sad that something like this happens and all of a sudden man u and arsenal(not so much) are crying like little babies and need someone to blame! oh lets go back to ol' faithful, the rich one that no-one likes. pathetic.

Its just as likely that it is real madrid doing this just to stop chelsea, n united and arsenal gettin them to help them win the champs league, very unrealistic, but equally as chelsea.

One last thing to say..... GO ON THE IRONS!
 
Well I cant see this squad doing much, if anything its much weaker. Just look at the midfield, if injury hits us we are in deep trouble. No doubt that will be the case with the premiership, FA cup,Carling Cup and champions league. This summer we have grabbed only kuszczak and carrick, not any better than last season when we only purchased Park and VDS and look where we ended up, 2nd place and knocked out of first round of champions league.

van der Sar/Kuszczak

G. Neville
Ferdinand/Silvestre
Brown/Vidic
Heinze/Evra

Ronaldo/Park
Carrick/O'Shea/Fletcher
Scholes/Jones
Giggs/Richardson

Rooney/Ole
Saha/Smith

Thats all there is...potential. How about if we look to challenge for something in the present than look to the future all the bloody time. What if our potentially good players dont turn out to be all that.
Looking to the futures all well and good but a club like United should be looking for immediate success and if that means bringing in some experienced players then so be it. Too late for that now though!
 
Look at it this way. We've won 3 games out of 3 WITH injuries and bans. Once Rooney, Scholes, Carrick and Heinze are back, we should be an even better side.
We're lucky to have our injuries and bans at the early stages of the season so we could get them out of the way cuz we'd have to be extremely unlucky to experience them again later on.

Your forgetting its only 3games against mediocre teams. We won our first 3 games last season aswell, then we started playing difficult teams and struggled.
