Re: Football Season 2017/2018
£20 million for a wasted talent who is never fit...

Re: Season 2017/2018
Off topic but what has happened to the cricket thread, why has it been closed.

Re: Season 2017/2018
Not even sure they need him, the young Brazilian Pereira has looked very good in all the pre season games so far. Although he is more of an attacking midfielder than Matic TBH.

Re: Season 2017/2018
It is a surprise, he's one of if not the best holding midfielder in the league, his stats are phenomenal. Bit like Mata's before he was shoved out by Mourinho at Chelsea despite being the best Attacking mid in the league at the time. Given his position and his movement, you'll easily get 5 years out of him. It's a solid signing and along with Lukaku it makes a statement of intent on United's part.

Re: Season 2017/2018
Given Carricks age I suppose it makes sense to buy Matic and will give Pogba more freedom. The squad is just a little bloated ATM.

Well its official now but as I suspected his stats have declined in recent seasons, so much so that Herrara and even carthorse Fellaini have better records from last season.

Re: Season 2017/2018
I seem to have got him over his entire Chelsea career when ticking it off. Had to re-check to notice it.

Not a bad player, just think £25 million would have been a bit overpriced, £40 m is way over the top.

Sadly the transfer market is behaving like the mad hatter on steroids.

Re: Season 2017/2018
Speaking of transfer values, £198 million for Neymar.
And going to a team in what is in reality a second tier league.
