Summer Transfer Window

[Indie_]

Edit: ^^ Beaten to it numerous times. Who uses after tax numbers when calculating the expense to the employer?? LOL

So much this.

It's unbalanced because you have about 5 world class players in your team. They are all AM's or strikers. From there backwards, you have a lot of garbage. That's unbalanced.

So its unbalanced because we have world class players ok.. I bet you didnt think Liverpool were unbalanced with Suarez/Sturridge upfront with garbage behind them

They weren't balanced either, which is why they copped 50 goals last season. Falcao's a decent signing, but United still haven't addressed their issues down back and in the centre of the park.

We werent unbalanced as must as your squad is now. We had plenty of talented players behind those guys. Seriously behind your world class AM/S's you have blokes like Young, Valencia, Evans, Fletcher, Carrick, Anderson, Blackett, Jones, Smalling. Even blokes you have bought like Blind and Herrara are not stand out players.

I meant what he is earning, not what we are paying.

Don't get to excited.

Well we have addressed them since we have signed 2 defenders and 3 midfielders( if u include Di Maria) lets wait until they actually play some games before dismissing them all as useless.

I don't think Falcao gets the loan fee m8. That'll go to Monaco.

He's not even the highest paid player at the club, let alone in EPL history.

I know he doesn't get the loan fee. I just broke down the loan fee to a per week cost for the length of the loan. Just a way to inflate the numbers even more

Pretty sure I read he is getting paid more than Rooney, although I stand to be corrected.

Monaco are paying some of the wages, it really isnt a big deal, we got rid of Hernandez and Welbeck which gor rid of a fair bit of wages anyway.

Monaco are not paying any of his wages. United paid a smaller loan fee than was quoted to everyone else because they were willing to pay his whole wages for the duration of the loan.

 

[SuperCats9]

He means it's unbalanced because we have some serious world class quality in attack, but don't in defence, who is world class in defence for us? no one.

And our midfield is not that great either, hoping Herrera and Blind can change that. It is an unbalanced side atm, but LVG will get things right im confident of that, he'll get everyone on his page playing his way soon enough.

Lol you just named players who wont even start when every one is fit, maybe Jones thats it. Your calling Blind and Herrera not stand out without even playing, hilarious both would walk into your midfield no problem.

Provide proof of that as I've not read that at all.

And from a reliable source please.

I wouldn't really worry about what Liverpool/Chelsea/Arsenal fans say about our transfer period. In the end we upgraded on Welbeck/Hernandez on a striker who pre knee injury was in the top 3 strikers in world football and easily is our best striker right now.
Blind will be handy for us, we haven't had a chance to see Shaw or Rojo as yet and we have Di Maria and Herrera.
Sure we still have needs to address but its a impressive transfer period none the less.

http://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/sep/02/radamel-falcao-joins-manchester-united-loan Its says there were paying 190k a week and Monaco paying the rest.

 

[SuperCats9]

I'm also not expecting things to turn dramatically straight away, our squad has had a significant change and the players will need time to get to know each-other, get an understanding and to start playing the LVG wants them to play.

You look at how our side looked at the start of last season.

DDG

Rafael Vidic Ferdinand Evra

Young Carrick Fellaini Valencia

Rooney RVP

Now compare that to:

DDG

Jones Evans Rojo Shaw

Herrera Blind

Di Maria Rooney Mata

Falcao

Massive difference.

 

[Cooldude]

So he took almost an 100k a week pay cut to join Man United?

From what I have read, Man United are paying all of his wages, which is about 275K a week to make him the highest paid player in the EPL ever. Plus the 6-8m loan fee; that's about 390K a week for this season.

Edit: ^^ Beaten to it numerous times. Who uses after tax numbers when calculating the expense to the employer?? LOL

Yeah but don't you know, if Kagawa only goes for 8 mil euro the numbers must be wrong, but if Falcao apparently takes a massive paycut from his 300k to join Man Utd the numbers must be right

No they wouldn't.

Well nobody counts Di Maria as a midfielder. He is a W/AM.

Herrara and Blind are not top quality. Rojo and Shaw are the two defenders I assume you are talking about. Shaw is an attacking FB. Rojo a LB who I assume you are going to try to play as a CB?

 

[LFTWNG11]

Provide proof of that as I've not read that at all.

I don't what you consider a reliable source. None of us have direct access to player contracts, but this article is the gist of what I have been reading on Eurosport News:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/fo...ited-pay-24-million-for-season-long-loan.html

I would usually take BBC as gospel, but they don't have any salary figures on their site I could find.

A fat young left-back and a bloke who can't get a work permit aren't anywhere near the standard Di Maria & co. Your defence is garbage relative to the rest of your squad, therefore its unbalanced. United are still a centre-back and central midfielder short.

 

[pieman123]

Jesus you have no idea

 

[Cooldude]

BBC and telegraph are generally very very good

 

[jod23]

Err no they wouldnt. Henderson is far better than either Herrera or Blind.

 

[Primetime Pricey]

So attacking midfielders are not midfielders?

 

[Primetime Pricey]

Henderson is better then Herrera?

 

[jod23]

DDG

Jones Evans Rojo Shaw

Herrera Blind

Di Maria Rooney Mata

Falcao

Massive difference.

Who is gonna do the grunt work in midfield? Better midfields will waltz past Herrera and Blind. Also I cant see Mata and Rooney tracking back too much.

 

[pantskyle]

Yeah but don't you know, if Kagawa only goes for 8 mil euro the numbers must be wrong, but if Falcao apparently takes a massive paycut from his 300k to join Man Utd the numbers must be right

The fee for Kagawa is undisclosed. Perhaps you have a source at United or Dortmund?

Creepy that you keep track of my posts like this.

Very lame that you can't even use them against me correctly.
