29mil pound for di maria is a fair evaluation base on his mediocre performance last season, but woodward would be pulling his hair out if he is to sell him at that cut throat price lol
i can speculate the only reason for man utd not to sign otak is due to his super agent jorge mendes, the same agent that handles di maria n flopcao. probably disappointed with how the agent plays a role in di maria's uncertainty at the club, right after di maria himself pledged to do better at old trafford during the south america cup. also mendes had said some words about vengaal on his treatment with flopcao
on the other side of news, SPORT are saying that Pedro is one of two players mengyu are going to buy in order to replace AdM. Pedro has been promised an important role.
interestingly, BPL clubs like tottenham r registering their interests on Ashley Young, who is yet to be awarded with new contract after good performance last season

I think we can deal with ddg going away. Hopefully our gk trainer will work his charm on romero n possibly cillassen (dunno spelling korek or not)
If vengaal insists on having left footed cb, i would choose rojo over blind, but considering that rojo missed the flight, i highly doubt that he will play against spurs.
As for the other cb, if we r to settle with the current selection, i would choose smalling. Yes i criticized him a lot last season especially the red card incident vs mancity but since then he matured quite a lot. Jones however is still as theatrical as ever with his challanges, always go for over the top tackles risking himself (injuries) n the shape of the back 4 (get caught by the off position due to his sliding tackles)
No probs with our lb/rb shaw n darmian, both of them were very impressive during the tour n hopefully they can continue the form in bpl.
With adm almost confirm going out, n pedro the only possible n probable replacement(base on the rumors), i think it is not that a huge of a downgrade. Sure adm is faster n pacier, but i would rate pedro's dribbling 1v1, shooting n thru ball passing to be better than adm. Most importantly he can use both feet to shoot n cross, a technicality that vengaal is very concern of lol
As for our striker department, its not that im defending shrek or anything, but i do notice that our strikers r not getting as many services as they shud. Our stats through out the last season shows that our shot attempts r very low but fortunately we r quite efficient in turning those chances into goals. Rooney needs competition, n i dont think depay is that competition. Depay, in my book is always an attacking winger n not a striker.
Finally, pls play pereira more!
