Flip Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Regardless of whether he's brilliant or not, nobody can deny that we need him. What? So if he was as bad as Steven Taylor you'd still need him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRD Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 While by no means a great name, he provides cover at LWB and CB which I think will be welcome at Man Utd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRD Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 For that money, I'm surprised LvG hasn't gone in for Blind though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Surprised Man Utd didn't go for Martins-Indi or De Vrij personally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRD Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 De Vrij went cheaply too. The advantage Blind has being he is versatile and can play in both defence and central midfield. With Carrick out and limited options, it makes sense to go for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Roger Kint Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Surprised Man Utd didn't go for Martins-Indi or De Vrij personally. Both pretty cheap and would have done well alongside a top CB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 As expected, FIFA upheld our transfer ban for the next two transfer windows. I suppose the club will appeal to the CAS now, but given precedent we'll have to eat this one. Still 10 days of transfer window left :frantic: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pata Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Hoping we (Swansea) complete some signings this week. The longest transfer saga ever hopefully will come to an end when Fredrico Fernandez eventually signs after Napoli stops messing about. Apparently we've had a bid accepted for Benjamin Stambouli at Montpellier too, but he's supposedly hoping to play for Fiorentina. So wait and see all round. I seriously doubt that.

Kanj Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Would love Stambouli in our team. Lovely footballer. Him next to Sissoko would be awesome. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Just realised I should have put the Liverpool news in here. So apparently they've bid for Balotelli. £17 million. Think that's a hell of a deal if they get him for that. He's nuts, but he's a heck of a player IMO. Playing in that team with Sturridge and Sterling buzzing around him, they could be frightening.

He's a heck of a player about 1 game in 5. The rest he is lazy and barely contributes. Not surprised Milan are letting him go having seen some of their games last season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 surely all about keeping balotelli motivated, interested and on whatever medication he needs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 It's long since we've had thematic XIs, so this Balotelly talk inspired me to make a Mentalist XI: Neuer Ricksen B. Alves Pepe A. Cole Ireland Barton Gattusso Cassano Balotelli Suárez Manager: Di Canio To be frank, most of the ones I can come up with are forwards: Fat Adriano, Diouf, Bellamy, Bendtner, Zlatan...
