I remember when we where in the position United are in now and had to make statement to announce ourselves as a player with the big teams with our pursuit of Kaka and would happily overpay to show teams we can attract the best players, now we are above all that and look to get quality players for the right money.
It may have been merely serendipitous, but the difference is that the key players we landed in that period, Yaya apart, were simply great pros who just wanted to get on and play football: Silva, Aguero, Kompany seem insanely low maintenance, relative to other 'superstars'. We struck incredibly lucky with those players; hugely unlikely to be repeated, especially at a club that's throwing the cash around as recklessly as united.
 
Seen a couple of reports saying Barca have just gazumped Madrid to the signature of Andre Gomes.....hopefully Madrid are vexed now.

I suppose a successful team can afford one diva as long as his ego is sensibly massaged and there are enough grounded team mates of similar ability in the side.
United are going to have Zlatan, Rooney, Mourinho and Depay. A dressing room of combustible characters, it could end up resembling the Crap Sharks cartoon strip from Viz.
