Herrera sticks out like a sore thumb when you're trying to fit everything in, he plays his best at no.10 and you have Mata, if you're gonna play Mata Di Maria and the two strikers then you'd need two combative physical mids to do all their own hard yards. Man Utd doesn't even have one of those, and their centre backs are shit kids

That DM would have to be one of the best in the world to hold all of that in front of him, Di Maria works hard but who knows what he'd contribute defensively. Herrera is sorta alright at it I suppose. Mata gives zero
Exactly, if they could pull off Vidal that'd be huge but that doesn't look like its happening now. Can't think of many others that'd do that job well let alone be available.

It is possible to do, but with a DM like Blind it'll have it's flaws.

If Van Gaal can find a solution to fit all of them in then it would be a huge worry, but for now we'll see what happens

If you have 60 million to burn and 200k wages to throw around you'd probably be better off fixing the weakest areas of the squad

West Adelaide Bloods, Man City.
you could definitely get away with herrera deeper if you had a defensive minded player next to him. or behind him

he cannot play that defensive player role. not his fault, it's just not him.

Your squad is full of shit kids.

Is this still transfer talk? or again more bashing of Man United?

We may be signing Di Maria, if it happens let's see how LVG works things out, i personally think there will be a big departure.

Arsenal seem to be eyeing off Kostas Manolas from Olympiakos as our Thomas Vermalen replacement.

Podolski also looking like he could be off to Juve on loan.
