Transfer Rumour Juan Mata

[Lee Smith]

Think 20m is steep for someone of his age but THE MOSH DONT CARE

He's only 28 mate, in his prime, if we get 3 or 4 decent seasons out of him at the standard we know he's capable of it will be an absolute steal

Have you heard anything good about any United player in the last few years mate?

Fosu mensah looks a player
de gea
Martial

not done well there but depay could be good on our left.

Agreed, Mata and Witsel and two very good footballers both mentally and technically - different class in stature and ability to the likes of Cleverley/McCarthy.

Who else would you like us to bring in Tubey?

I'm hoping we can replace Stones with a truly top class CB.

Virgil Van Dijk to replace Stones, then basically I'm happy trusting Koeman and Moshiri if this is the calibre of player we're now dealing with.

Good times ahead!

Sounds like he would be a good signing. I wanted us to sign Calhanoglu or b.silva as they are really top notch playmakers so hopefully mata turns out as good for us as i think those 2 would be.

You keep banging on about 'statement' signings, yet those 2 you have mentioned there aren't even close to the level of mata.

One plays for leverkusen, best known for freekicks. The other a kid who came from the Portuguese league to play for monaco.

So close we can taste his through balls.

I had to read that twice...... lol

2 of the most highly rated playmakers around.

£20m+ for a player at 28. Certainly no where past it but not really someone I see at Everton, very slow too.

Ridiculous this. The FIFA fanboys will hate his but what exaclty does he offer over Barkley?

VVD is left sided like Mori.

VVD is left sided like Mori.

Jagielka/VVD would be our starting centre halves in that scenario. Mori isn't good enough, would be backup.

Southampton will rip us off. Might ask for £40m after Stones is sold. There shall be other options out there.

 

[Blue Cheese]

Is this a goer then?

He would be an excellent replacement for Stones, a more commanding figure at the back and more importantly better in the air, our current weakness at the back.

 

[Neiziro]

Mori isn't good enough.

What a ridiculous comment.

 

[navidson]

I would love to see Mata here - Think he's an excellent player and would improve us considerably

Not having this muck about a 'statement signing' though - He's another United cast-off, just considerably more talented than the other dozen we've had over the years

 

[TheFinnFan]

Definitely a big statement.

You speak like it's pretty much done mate
