Thiago Alcantara

[adrianr]

The kid will get swallowed whole by a midfield 3 of Fernandinho, Yaya and Milner.

Swallowed whole.

He should be IN the midfield with Fernandinho and Yaya. Anyone thinking this isn't a great signing for the Rags is going to look very daft indeed.

Fixed.

Quality signing if they get him.

WTF is going on here? Thiago and Baines have not signed for the scummy twats, so what's with all the "they'll be a better team blah fuckin blah"

 

[AntiUnited]

You kidding?

He will 100% improve them. This is the same club that have Cleverly and Welbeck playing for them.

Young--------------Kagawa----------Thiago------------Valencia
------------------------------Carrick---------------------------

The thing that Thiago will improve most with is goals from the midfield which they have lacked since Scholes has faded/gone.

For the money they've paid they have bought a very promising prospect for an absolute bargain.

Baines on the left and Rafael on the right is not strong defensively but attacking wise as good as it gets in our league and suits their style of play perfectly.

United will be stronger next season. If Ferguson was there I'd be more fearful but luckily Gollum is and I am absolutely sure he will 'fail' there. They won't win a league under him imho.

Yes i agree hes a fantastic player. But he will not show his potential in that squad do to the way they play Thats my opinion.

How come it's accepted that we will play a new style of football under a new manager, but not for United?

cuz moys needs to get wins under his belt so he will trod along doing what he knows they know best. Later on he might start to change.

Moyes will implement his own style of football, and the reason United play with so much emphasis on their wingers is because they don't have a Thiago type player, signing him would show an attempt to shift said emphasis.

You sound more bitter than logical

Because he needs to distinguish himself from Ferguson, not sail away on his coattails.It's like any new manager. Pellegrini won't play the way Mancini did for the first few months of the season will he?

And they don't nor have they ever played the "stokish" way. Again, you just sound bitter but being a Liverpool fan that should be expected of you
