Get the feck in. Didn't think this was possible last week, unreal signing.
 
Moyes and Mourinho agreed to start negotiations over a glass of red wine after our last match against Chelsea. Well done Moyes, you really have some balls.

Btw, did anyone see Mourinho at the presser when he said that Wenger is always complaining and it's in his nature? I like Mourinho :)
 
Happy to admit I was wrong about it being his agent talking shit to get him a move.

What a signing!
 
good call by all those saying top players wouldnt sign because of Moyes

Any gifs posted apart from the likes of the sort that Olston do will be deleted and the poster threadbanned for a day.

He's just one big WUM :lol: First in the summer taking Willian after he's had a medical with Spurs, and now taking Salah after it seems like he's going to sign for Liverpool and giving us Mata so that we can take points off City, Arsenal and Liverpool. I genuinely think he wants us to finish top 4 and would prefer it to be United and them challenging for the title then anyone else.
 
It's alright being nice to someone who isn't your immediate rival. Don't you guys remember that bloke called Sir Alex that used to do the same thing?
 
whats with the crackdown on gifs?

They've not really been allowed for a long while. A lot of the time they're pointless and don't really add anything - like the Banderas gif, and aren't exactly great for mobile users viewing the caf.

Like I said though, the Olston specials/those Mata poster photoshops are mostly fine, it's the likes of this I wouldn't like to see, because it's shite.

Great signing.

Think it's a tad too late to save our season, mind.

At this stage, if he helps us finish in the top four, that probably would count as him saving our season. In terms of everything else, it's too late.
 
I'm over the moon about this transfer.

But seriously, I just wonder what logic has spurred Chelsea. Sure they're making a hefty profit, but they're not exactly an in need club from that point of view, and his wages weren't even that high if what's been reported is true. I just can't understand why you'd sell to a domestic rival (ok we're not rivals this year but we will again) a player who's been your talisman for 2 years, who's still extremely young and not yet reached his peak, and who could be a catalyser for said domestic rival. Seriously, it's madness.

Aye, our only chance of coming close is 16 wins on the trot to get 85 points, I don't see that happening. :lol:

Probably wouldn't be enough anyway!
 
That's it, this makes me fully support United in England! You've signed a fellow Asturiano that came through the ranks of Madrid and one who shares the same first name as me nonetheless!

I hope he does great for you guys and helps you secure that important 4th spot.

Congrats!
Your name first name is Vato, you lying bastard.

We probably need 13 wins to get 4th. Very, very tough ask unfortunately.

Fair enough but are thread bans needed?
 
:lol: Your father rocks.

:lol:

I was browsing the magazine section with a six-pack of Corona in hand, passing time before heading to the check-out and the phone rings.

"NAHEALAI????!!!"

"Yes, Da?"

Old man starts singing "You're the One (Juan) That I Want" down the phone to me and finished the phone call.

This man is 51-years-old in a few months time.
 
I'm really wondering if this can lift the team as some were saying, I just hope people aren't expecting him to be some kind of Messiah now.
That can only lead to disappointment to be honest.

Damn it, your 'aul fella is a proper lad. Proper. :lol:

At the very least, it's a statement of intent. Hopefully a "We done feckin' around, bitchz, we done!" statement.
 
If our best players are fit 13 wins is doable. Remember with a fit and healthy RVP we would definitely not be in this position
If we get RvP and Rooney back, and kept healthy, and if Evra finds himself some form(hard to blame, ran into the dirt), I'd fear nothing. Young and Valencia remembering the footballers they were 2-3 years ago would also be a nice treat.
 
Yep we should've signed him in mid-October.
Hilarious.

Top 4 was what I was talking about. My feeling is overtaking 3 teams with a significant gap on us is still very unlikely now, Mata or not.
