as a manager, probably. Although I dont know a lot about his wolfsburg squad.

the most expensive team in history, should be challenging, thats pretty obvious tbh. i agree, theyre not quite good enough yet, but they should be, given what theyve spent and who they are. theyve wasted loads i think, but the pressure will be on lvg to deliver the title i think.

Whichever way it's carved up, the most expensive team in history has just had another £100m spent on it. He needs to deliver the title LVG.

I think they'll get kane or cavani to fill their striker vacancy.

Aye it's pretty perplexing that they've not strengthened in central defence yet, unless they're planning to do so. 3 players down the spine (CB, CF, GK if De Gea's off) that are strong characters and just about the finished article and they'll challenge for the title next year IMO. Yep, agreed. I've no doubt they'll get the balance needed, but they've a few to go (in and out) yet.

Di Maria will go, imo. Don't think they'll miss him.

They're top heavy in midfield, week up front and in defence I think, there's still a pretty big imbalance. Herrera, Carrick, fellaini, Di Maria, schweinsteiger, schneiderlin, mata, blind. That's an awful lot of competition for 2/3 spots. Then they've got Rooney and Wilson as strikers (hernandez looks like he's away). They've still got a bit to go to get balance I think.

Is schneiderlin that good?

Lvg needs to deliver the title, they're spending some ££, and still need a striker and a centre half.

Fucking stinks that.

Hope he stays. There's a player in there. Let's hope this regime are the ones to bring it out.

Agent here to sort apparently. Sorry if Giggs.

haha, yep, just re-read it, one of those days!

Agree. As he himself admits though, it means nothing without action. agreed, he admits that himself though, on more than one occasion.

seriously? i think he comes across well.

Some Italian rag reckons mitrovic to have medical tomorrow, roma trying to hijack deal.

kill me now.

It's possible to play more than one attacking central player.. But not 4. Perez, Wijnaldum, De Jong & Cabella can't play optimally in the same team. It's awful. jesus, you are one negative b*stard!!!!

Sun claims we want downing.

the fairest way to say it is he left them in better shape than he found them in,

Yeah he seems to be, don't know who I was thinking of. richard money?

#wait

Hope steele comes as well. Think we'll see a different tim Krul if he does.

Mings to Bournemouth apparently.

It's quite incredible really. It's really not. It's just based on the evidence of the past 8 years that the most negative outcome under Ashley is the usual one. Also out propensity to sell players and not replace them. I love this place, but its generally hyper negative. If we'd been turned down by cathro, there'd be a thread pages deep by now, since it looks like he's coming, and appears a real progressive, forward thinking appointment, theres pretty much nowt.
