Getting linked with Pogba and De Bruyne means fuck all if you end up with neither.
True. But you are aware it's only mid July right, there's 7 weeks left of this transfer window. If you really think Sterling is our only signing you're seriously deluded.
We signed Schweinsteiger and Schneiderlin whilst you wanted Delph but for an unknown reason he preferred to stay at Villa. I don't know which team done better, the one who's bought the captain of the world champoins and one of the best DMs in the world or the one who's being linked to Pogba.
That "unknown" reason was he feared he'd lose his England spot leading into the Euros if he wasn't playing regularly, which would have been the case at City.
Not sure why Schweinsteiger being the "captain of the World Champions" implies a huge amount of class on his behalf. Dino Zoff was "captain of the World Champions" in 1982. He was 40. Schweinsteiger is a good player, but he'll be 31 at the start of the season, he's coming off a host of injury shortened seasons, and he's entering a league, and a packed schedule, he'll not be used to. A good signing, but if you think you're getting 30 league appearances from him you're mistaken. Plus he's clearly not the player he was. As for Schneiderlin being one of the best DM's in the World, please, sort yourself out mate. A good signing for United for sure, certainly he'll fill gaps you've had for a while, but if there's one thing Schneiderlin isn't it's World Class!
Sterling only went to City because of the lack of competition for his signature and because you were the only club who doesn't mind another mercenary in the club.
That lack of competition was because no-one else could afford his asking price, not because no-one else thought he was good enough. Wenger has commented on Sterling and the signing, saying how good a player he is, and stating that the only reason Arsenal weren't involved was that they've got a lot of similar players in their squad style wise already. As for the mercenary comment, I forgot that all United players play for the love of the shirt, and grew up dreaming of being Georgie Best. All footballers are interested in one thing, themselves. You think Rooney is at United because he loves the place, or because you pay him £250k a week? Fucking behave.
