As much as everyone slags off the idea of JFE... I dont think Zaha fills the continued need in defense especially if another long term injury occurs. At this point we are a tweak in Nico or Stones from Mangler starting for a stretch.Zaha is the best player in a PL side. Roberts plays in Scotland. And he is much better than Sinclair. He would be backup for Leroy and Raheem. The price might be prohibitive. But would prefer him to JFE.
Im disappointed we didnt get Van Dyke, if we buy JFE were still gonna have to spend big in a season or two on a very good CB so it wouldve made sense to get him now (then no JFE reqd)
Van Dijk will be the one we look back on and wish we signed, I reckon.
Zaha is quality. Depending on price, I think he would be a good signing.
I like Zaha, he's a player who can turn a gameZaha's ringpiece is still sore from the complete bumming Walker gave him at Palace away.
Yes! I'm extremely juvenile so Um....titty is my obvious choice as well. :)that name is a gift for me and my nicknames for the team,we must buy him lol
RagHey, get Blue tinted specs off. If Manchester United bid for a player, their head will be turned. Most people on here, if they were pro footballers, would do the same. With Mourinho in charge you're guaranteed trophies. You're playing in front of 75,000 most weeks, with a passionate and knowledgeable fanbase. They're the biggest club team in the world. You get to meet legends of the game every week, with the likes of Charlton, Law, Ferguson, Giggs, Best and Crerrand in attendance at all games.
Barmcake for meWill this thread ever end
Is it the new Barm/Muffin debate ?

But surely he's a professionalThis Sanchez lad, he's just won the lottery.
His agent has sorted out a rise from about £100k/week to £450k/week for the next 4 years, I can hear them both laughing and backslapping as I'm writing this.
Now, I can only talk about me, Jack Rodwell and Wilfred Bony.
If I'd just been guaranteed that kind of dough for the next 4 years, I wouldn't be rushing round anywhere, I'm in Easy Street! Now I wonder.
I agree, @malg is definitely a rag tw@.So last weeks 60,000 doesn't count or the fact that Best has been dead for years. Rag tw@
Something tells me Malg wasnt being sincere LOLSo last weeks 60,000 doesn't count or the fact that Best has been dead for years. Rag tw@
That was my take on it too. Stay of execution!Something tells me Malg wasnt being sincere LOL
Muffin..Everyone is emotional about this move at the moment, we need some perspective.
In the cool light of day we'll see if Sanchez is value for money and he is the difference maker they hope him to be or whether he is an expensive mistake.
We have a great (predominantly young) team now taking us into the future on the cusp of of a great era with Pep. Ask any neutral which team and manager they'd rather have?
I have no doubt we will get the required players coming in to sustain and achieve more titles i.e more hits than misses in transfer mkt
As for the Rags, their signings along with their relationship with Mourinho has a hint of desperation. He will implode if we keep beating them over the next couple of seasons and leave them with a very expensive mess.
P.S. the most important signing they couldn't beat us to is Pep Guardiola. We are now seeing the result of that.
Time to close this thread and get on with the business of winning the title!
