Is there even any substance to all this talk about Mata? Would be a good signing if it happened.
I'm under the impression that it is currently a goer.Is there even any substance to all this talk about Mata? Would be a good signing if it happened.
The Echo you say....Echo also saying its nothing more than whispers
He's a player who thrives when he's the main man, IMO.
He was at Chelsea until Mourinho went there, and at United he was under Moyes in his first few months.
Still hasn't done bad in terms of his return over the past two years under LVG considering 'limited' game time.
If he signs, he'll be great for younger players to learn off and will also provide that bit of craft and guile we've been lacking for years

Let's not play it cool, he will be by far the biggest signing we've made since kanchelskis
Is it of?
If we do as looks likely sign Mata, a big key is to get in a top defensive midfielder
Actually hope we raid United this summer for there 'cast-offs' several players they have who are on the fringe or likely to be out of favour are top quality and have suffered through the managers and systems they've used
Would take Mata (21m OMG yes please), Schniederlin (20m wtf yes) and Blind (on those above fees then looking at maybe 10m?) Imagine getting those three in for the same fee we would basically be recieving for Stones
Add those three players to the squad minus stones and then say Koeman still has 100m+ to spend with wages not being a limiting factor and we could end with a very good squad indeed
Think myself that Mata will be the first one that sets the dominos rolling[/QUOTE]
Rom never had the reputation mata does.I'd say Lukaku was bigger personally.
If he was to sign I don't even think he will be our biggest signing in this window.
Hopefully anyway....
Not as far as I know.
In fact I thought the opposite.
The [Poor language removed] wrong with youI'd say Lukaku was bigger personally.
