Name me another world class player a Big 3 team has sold for under £7m recently.

I can do better. Pirlo was let go for free and look what he did in the subsequent years winning several Serie A titles, and making the finals of the CL and European Championship. Cech was let go for around 10 million and is still an unbelievable goalkeeper.

You let Tevez go and for fairly cheap and I thought he was finished, but he showed he still had it.

Even the best clubs make mistakes, but this is more a case of Bayern doing a favour to a club legend.

Even Lampard not quite at the same level did a decent job for you last season.

I didn't just say Carrick and Schweinsteiger, because there are games where there lack of pace will be exposed, I included Schneiderlin in there.

Ultimately it comes down to this. I believe Schweinsteiger is still a world class player and will show it this season and at the Euros. People here think he is finished. Time will tell and whilst I have always been a huge Schweinsteiger fan I will be happy in this case to be wrong and United to underachieve. Not much more to discuss.

I`m going to make a bold prediction United wont get 5 points from their next 6 games

I think they`ll struggle to get a draw at southampton, they`ll get 3 points at Sunderland and nothing against Arsenal, Everton, City or CP

United have the best midfield in the league and means teams just don't attack them enough. Still can't understand why Schweinsteiger was being written off. The only question should have been how many games he plays. They have dominated midfield in every game they have played and had more chances in every game. Their lack of fire power will cost them and it's why I don't think they will mount a serious challenge, but they should come 2nd.

Martial is quick and scored a decent goal but unless people were watching a lot of Monaco can't judge any more than that.

Depay has been really poor, Darmian looks great and Smalling has improved a lot.

Shouldn't this be posted in the what universe are you in thread? Shakes head and walks away.

You're right, there isn't much left to discuss - this discussion is ludicrous.

How anyone can say United's midfield is the best in the league is totally beyond me

You can look at my post history and see that I have always been a huge Schweinsteiger fan and always put him behind only Xavi and Iniesta in this generation of midfielders. I watch most Bayern matches, I watch a lot of Germany and can see why he did not fit into Guardioal's system. However, at the same time I don't see why people are writing him off. He dominated the world cup just last year. He will probably dominate the Euros this summer. It seems more wishful thinking hoping he is not going to be great than any actual evidence.

I have seen enough of him to see that his passing, movement, organising and tackling are still great. The question is whether his fitness can hold up.

Even the guy who is right 99/100 times is wrong once and I would take being the guy that is right 60/100. If I wrong then I deserve the ridicule.

You say you "can do better" than what he asked but outside of Pirlo offered nobody that would fall under the required criteria.
