I have three signings on good authority that look likely. First being Vidal but won't join till the summer! Second Matuidi again united may go for summer as his contract will be out and could get him on a free from PSG but could possibly sign this month and third pogba as moyes is wanting to bring him back and pogba in a recent interview said he does not rule of playing for united again it was SAF he had an issue with!

What authority?

Central midfiekders like buses it would seem. Can't see us signing 3 myself. Fletch is back, selling Fellaini would be admitting a mistake, Carrick not likely to leave, can we really accommodate 6 in the squad for 2 places along with the other versatile players that can play part of a 3?

Sorry my friend what u have just said there is basically Carrick and fletch would be more then capable to carry on and win us things over the three above players I have just stated. Please use your mind before commenting. We can accommodate them yes! Ando is on way out. There is no guarantee fletcher will stay fit and fellaini is out injured for god knows how much longer. Carrick well. he would be perfect for a back up now days. Pogba, Vidal, fellaini and matuidi being rotated in the centre of the park is more than likely!

Fair reply and I agree, but like a politician you have skipped the main
question.

What authority?

You should try taking your own advice.

Carrick is still top quality, in some ways he's actually peaking now. Fletch is a bit of an unknown atm, but if he can get even close to where he was before his illness took hold, he is good enough to give those 3 a fight for a first team place.

We will not sign 3 cm at once. 1 or maybe 2 at first, maybe another 1 after a year or so.

No. What I'm saying is regardless of ability (which I didn't comment on) I very much doubt we'll see 3 centre midfielders sign in a very short space of time, especially so soon after spending £27m on another. I'm not going to respond to your childish insults and will fully accept your apology when we don't sign all of the 3 listed above.

Plus us much as some on here want him to, I doubt Tom C will be sold. Hopefully he'll become a squad player.

I'd guess we'll sign 1 for the first 11 in this window or the next, and maybe 1 more tops.

Look what happened to Spurs after signing lots of players in one go.

RedKez99 you are speaking 100% Bol**cks stop playing fifa and re join the real world

9.) 15 Jan 2014
Yeah that's all great.


But what authority?

10.) 15 Jan 2014
Spurs are still behind where they want to be and a fair few of their signings are looking like being shown the door less than a year after joining - on loan or at a loss.

Where United are is irrelevant to how Spurs season is going compared to the expectations they set themselves.

I would encourage anyone who thinks we'll sign 3 central midfielders to think about the experience we'll be losing in other positions, who will be our experienced heads in the dressing room, how many ganes we're likely to play next season, who will fill the squad pkayer roles, predict how many appearances the 'stayers' will make and then see how appearances we are short - somewhere between 30-80 by my calculations. Can see us signing one starter now or in the summer and maybe another next Jan depending on external factors.

Thanks OP for trying to pull me up as being illogical or stupid without quoting me. I still don't feel the need to retaliate but thanks to those that did so on my behalf ;-)

Sorry thorne but fletch is now our best cm after 1 full 90min display. that's how desperate(no disrespect to fletch) that we are. We need Vidal, Pogba, Koke or Herrara so badly its not one bit funny. I like Carrick a lot but him alone with Fletch won't do it. We need that someone we just dnt have. I fear chelsea at hme big time

12.) 15 Jan 2014
I love Fletcher, but one performance doesn't prove anything. Even Nani manages at least 1 good match per season!

Seriously though, I'm not debating the need for new blood at cm, but 3 at once is plain stupid, .
