Great signing especially as he appears versatile but I am slightly worried at the left sided bias of Shaw, Rojo and Blind. Not yet bought a true central defender of the Vidic or Rio mould.ETA - still hope that during Clev (or Young) negotiations with Villa, Vlaar could come our way and that Chico is a make weight in Vidal.

Ooh excellent. LVG certainly not dicking around.How long do you think it will take all your new players to work out how to play together as a team? It's clear from recent matches that you have individual quality in places, but the system and team parts have not gelled. Another 5-6 games as it will take training sessions and drills or will quality shine through quickly?

The million dollar question.If one of those new players is a true "play-maker", ideally bossing things in the middle of the field, then it could come quickly. I am thinking along the lines of a more technically gifted version of Roy Keane - one who is looking, pointing and shouting 360 degrees from the middle of the pitch.

I've thought for a while that the Glazers needed to look into the abyss before freeing up the cash. Maybe LVG is smarter than I thought. You know, play a little early season chicken.

I think Di Maria will be a huge catalyst for Utd. Brilliant player who will rip teams apart.
k me , how much is that now ?

As happy as I am at the signing of Di Maria, I can't help but feel that the Blind signing is a better one. Anyone else think the same?
I think its very much needed signing. I'm guessing he is the Cleverley replacementObligatory YouTube

I think it will take a few weeks to get the team gelling as even 1 great player still needs to understand how the others work to real make a great team. You've spent a lot and so you have to get Champions league, otherwise, I do fear for the investors and the ability to attract more players.
We can go on for ages about the amount you have spent, but it's the wage bill which I wonder about. With so many people on incredible money, I hope there are clauses in the contracts if you do not make the top 4.
