Do people still think Pogba was expensive?

For over 200 million,. I think we would have improved, Zlatan was great but I'm confident Lukaku will get onto even more Pogba through balls and score even more goals. Peresic would provide true width which we haven't had for a long time and Carrick looked done last year, Dier as average as he...

Dier is as average as they come. If we honestly sign him and Peresic for close to 100m I'll be pissed off.

I'm not sure he was ever even close to being 100% fit again after we rushed him back to play Bayer Munich in 2010. I think that then playing in the wotld cup over the summer has had wsy more of an impact than has ever been acknowledged. He still played some sensational football with us and I'd...

You're wrong.

I remember us being heavily linked with a certain Dortmund striker who has gone on to bang them in with Bayern since. Think Van Persie ended that. But to be perfectly honest I never wanted another striker at the time. Rooney had just come off the back of one of his best goalscoring seasons and...

Nope

The thing is we were quoted at least the same for Morata who hasn't proved himelf anywhere near as much, we are looking at 50 million for an average 28 year old winger whilst Arsenal have paid over 50 million for a player whose goal record isn't as good in the French league. We have certainly...

Best thing about this would be able to tell Madrid to go fuck themselves. Hopefully this means Matic and Peresic are just smokescreens too.

I hope so, caught I caught Inter a few times last year and never thought much of him. He is obviously a good player but that price tag is far too much even in this market. It's pretty much the same as what Arsenal are paying for Lacazette or City for Silva, two much younger players who have...

The rumoured United signings of Peresic and Matic with Morata as Zlatans replacement leaves me incredibly underwhelmed and I can't see us doing anything except scrapping around for fourth again. Main hope is that the young talents we have, Pogba, Martial and Rashford all kick on like Ronaldo...

Pe People used to think Yaya Toure was a dm and that he dominated midfields. In reality his touch and technique were his best assets and his far and away best position was as a number 10.

Royal blood are incredibly dull. Stevie Wonder is the greatest songwriter of all time. Original pirate material is the best album of the 00s The earlier Beatles stuff is just as good as their later material. The bends isnt as good as at least 3 Radiohead albums. Reasonable doubt is a below...

Perhaps I should have made it clearer but I wasn't saying they were hence the use of 'combative' midfielder . The modern clogger comes in two guises depending on what type of players there playing with and the system. If you are playing with the deep lying playmakers which obviously again vary...

The European commission is made up of representatives appointed by the democratically elected governments of the members of the state. It's exactly the same principle as our executive branch of government being appointed by the legestlive branch. If you have problems with the Democratic...

Kante is good at what he does but he is next in a long line of massively overated combative midfielders. Ever since Makalele people seem to have gone over the top in praise of this sort of player . He is the latest in a long line who have received praise far more than their actual ability...

Sorry for the late reply. I can't see anywhere in my post that says that. I'm just stating the fact that short term at least Brexit will damage the economy. The second we leave tariffs are going to go on all exports not just to E.U countries but every country the E.U had a trade deal with on...

I still I still cant get behind the Clegg /Lib Dem backlash. At the time they took the only available option to them and as we have seen since moderated the Tories to create a reasonable government. I voted Labour due to the horrible fptp system but if we had PR I would consider voting lib...

Voting by proxy for the first time since leaving England. Voting Labour but think I'd be most happy with a tiny Conservative majority. One or two sould be perfect. It would destroy their mandate for brexit, making May much weaker in the process but they would still have to struggle on for at...
