Btw think Thiago will be back at barca before too long.
I understand playing time is the biggest factor for his move, but you bring up a very good point. Unless there is a radical u-turn in with Utd's playing style, Thiago's strengths won't be properly utilised. He could thrive though, never know until we've seen him play.Stoned Rose said:dachoosen1 said:I rate him highly but to be honest think we are in need of Isco much more, but people don't kid yourselves Utd is getting a cracking player for a bargain price although if we get Isco for 21 million I will be chuffed to bits at that price plus I believe Navas will prove to be great business, If Isco is the end of our transfers think it will be a great window.

It'll be interesting to see how he gets on with a midfield who don't play in a 'Spanish' style. Utd tend to go straight to the wings, Barca/Spain don't.

If this is all true then I'm a bit pissed off, but he will be a delight to watch.

They clearly think he's the successor to Xavi and Iniesta. Could be a major coup for them if the £15m release clause is correct as well.
