Hardly means they should sell Vidal though.
Eh.
Paddy didn't reach 10 years here did he? So no testimonial then; sad, the man deserves one.
Rafael 99 appearances
Phil Jones 97 appearances incl Blackburn
Chris Smalling 88 appearances incl Fulham
Luke Shaw 60 appearances
Bit light on experience. I always remember Gary Neville saying that you're not really a full footballer until you have made 100 appearances.
What did LVG just say the other day regarding experience
To be honest, I wouldn't mind De Vrij! Wouldnt surpose me if he turns out to be an "Evra or Vidic".
Still very young!
I posted that 9 minutes ago and have literally have no recollection of doing so
Edit: cheers KM
Sure, but a whole back 4? To be fair this could be the season they do step up. Shaw apart, they are experienced in winning a title.
We should have prepared better for this. Should have replaced them one by one rather than letting them all leave in one go.
I don't care if the guy gets punishment or not, a single blip doesn't warrant it. Just seems a bit bizarre that posts like that should get ignored. Isn't that the whole point of a report button? To report posts you think is out of line? Well I thought it was out of line. I'll just go back to sitting on my hands in the future.
I agree he is a very good player but not as good as the strikers we have, and as you say would hold Januzaj back out wide, between that and the fee/wages its the most nonsensical transfer saga in years.
Not a lot you can do in terms of losing them all at once if said players are on the slide and contracts are up - no sense keeping players who arent neccessarily up to it any more.
That said, I agree that replacements should have been brought in before now to ease the transition. Hopefully a new manager makes it easier to integrate new players because its a new start for everyone.
From Benzema to Suarez is a huge downgrade, IMO. Class player but I don't know if he'd fit in over there.
Would be a good signing especially given most players would be a downgrade on Suarez. However Benzema just signed a contract extension after the world cup so nothing to see here.
Of course it should be. It will be the bravest but best thing we'll do.
Sad to see him leave, a great personality and a great player. But we had to move him on because he just wasn't performing defensively and it would have been detrimental to the team to keep him here.
Ah yeah, this.
It's a voice over though, right?
No, I think that's his voice.
This is why I don't get the Rio hate. He genuinely seems to care for United. So what if he has a weird sense of humour.
I like him tbh
You mean like most people on here.
For Rio and Evra to leave in the same summer is very worrying. Not just the loss of experience but they were 2 very big personalities and I imagine they contributed a lot to team harmony and general banter.
Let's hope the spanitos come out of their shell.

Makes a change from us being used.
Right, too many players have left us now. We need to start replacing them.
Come on Woody, let's get some shit sorted

No chance of him leaving for Liverpool anyway.
Yeah, that is the reason why they won't be joining Liverpool.
Seems like a story created to get hits.
Quotes Goal for their ''LvG has given green light''-story, then mentions the fee we're apparently ready to offer, while ending with the quotes from the Woodward interview yesterday.
I suppose that buying Smalling and Jones the club thought they were working towards that. Only time will tell if they were the right ones to sign.
£43m, for those wondering.
Ignore the 10 year thing. The player has to request a testimonial and in turn the club has to put it forward formally, I don't think the 10 year rule actually exists, just s yard stick.
