The plight of Manu has me gripped! They have money but no CL, a mad genius manager, but a terrible squad. A couple of world class additions but not what they needed What if they fail to make top 4 again? How long has LVG got?
It's mad!
Fascinating season ahead!

Did they pull off all these deals I reckon they'll have had a great window. 3 defenders brought in, solid midfielder, couple of exciting attacking players. Just what they needed

Lvg said it qas vital they get top 4. So i imagine he will get the boot if they miss out rhw way they did last year

It reminds me of Souness. He came in, tried to make his mark with record signings at the time, made some big changes and failed miserably.
The individual signings are on paper quality signings. No one can argue that Di Maria and Falcao aren't anything but very very good footballers. But the balance in the team isn't right. They are still weak and inexperienced at the back and they are lightweight in midfield.

I think we've got a pretty good chance of top 4 now
And I don't think it'll be at the expense of you lot either.

It throws up so many questions, like will Falcao even be arśed? Is he going to do a Torres? Have they shipped out too many players?

Or will they click?
Could go either way, but if they do manage to turn things around they need to do it soon.

They haven't brought in any players they actually needed!
