We called him the 'Blue Cafu' actually (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

PS I got your tweets and DM'd a reply (eventually). Though this is going back a couple of weeks.

I've been having issues with DMs, not sure why. Pretty much all that I've received in the last few months don't appear!

Madrid didn't really need him. Great player, but in the position United least need. All this means is one of RvP, Mata and Rooney can't play.

I'd still take him over Bale or James tbh. And they could easily be fit into the same side if it wasn't for Van Gaal's lopsided formation

I don't think any player is worth more than about £1M tbh. But going by today's loathsome transfer fees, yeah, it's fair.

Yeah, of course going by today's prices



WTF is Van Gaal trying to achieve exactly 3-man defence with 3 mediocre CBs, Young at WB...

Was never a fan of Bale, but he's so much better than ADM now IMO.

Mata scores for United. I'm fine with him scoring because the odd goal will cover up how dreadful he has been for the past 12 months, keep him in the side please!

I don't think that's the case, Di Maria was crucial to Real's success last season, especially in the CL

and Bale wasn't? Bale was involved in an incredible amount of goals and scored the winner in the CL!

lol, Gus, there's no way any player knows what he means by this.

Weird. I actually thought Di Maria and Modric were crucial to Real Madrid. Especially when they faced opposition who weren't going to get blown away by the sheer firepower.

Kroos and James will help in that regard though.

It's quite amazing to look at this United team and see only 3 players or so that would be a noticeably big upgrade on their Villa counterpart.

I didn't say Bale wasn't, I just thought Di Maria was more crucial and I personally prefer him over Bale.

£64m for Di Maria if true is absolutely obscene.

This is already Uniteds biggest spending window ever BEFORE Di Maria - yet apparently Moyes is **** and Van Gaal isn't. I wonder if when he spends £200m and they get top 4 if he'll be hailed as a genius, despite his embarrasing failure?

How is this their biggest spending window?? They look the same as last season... If not worse (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

They choked £30m+ on a fat 19 year old, mediocre English left back & also bought Herrera.

Oh & Rojo has joined but needs a permit which isn't secured to actually play (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

£72m on Herrera, Shaw and Rojo. They look the same because Herrera was terrible last week, Shaw is injured and Rojo hasn't played yet.

I think it's too early to call Shaw mediocre. He was phenomenal last season and injured at the moment, oh and he's not even 20.

Exactly and he struggles with his waistline that's only going to get worse over the next few years. That's pretty worrying.
