An interesting point on Pedro. He is used to the best passers in the world constantly threading him through for all his goals. He has had iniesta Messi xavi putting goals on a plate for them. He is NOT going to get these chances at united as we are looking really poor in the final third. I'm not so sure Pedro is the type of player we need? Don't we need someone fast, tricky who runs at defenders non stop and turns them inside out. Pedro won't do that in the premier league? Can't help but feel our scouting network needs to start finding exactly what we need. It appears lvg is just picking who he wants to sign at the minute and is now looking at what's available to him which isn't alot?!?!

I agree I worry a lot about our pass completion rate of 0% , why doesn't LVG teach his players to pass to the other blokes in red.

Shocking.

LVG out.

'LVG is just picking who he wants to sign at the minute '. isn't that his job ?

He WILL be part of the final third. I get what you're saying and this may well be a case of getting what's available but then that's precisely the point. Perhaps our main targets were not available. He might not be our number one target but that shouldn't mean he's useless. Transfers involve more than just throwing money around.

I was expecting that bilko. What I meant is there doesn't appear to be a scouting system finding players. I suppose darmain was the type of signing that was scouted and suggest to lvg. Swienstieger depay shniederlin were players lvg knew all about. I just wonder how good the scouting system is at the moment and how much lvg uses it rather than looking himself.

Yawn should of sign firmino ings milner clyne while where at let's get heskey, let's just sit bk and enjoy, these so called United mafe players like falcao and di Maria didn't do too well so let's see what someone 'who isn't what we need can do'

I might be something when did I call him useless and when did I talk about throwing money about in that post?

Pep I see what you are getting at. Pedro has magicians in the Braca team who can thread a killer ball in behind on a whim. My worry with him is if we play this 4 yard passing game without trying to open up the opposition will he just be using his energy running around chasing shadows?

To get the best out of a player like Pedro you have to thread the eye of the needle and let him play on the shoulder of the defender, be that fullback or CB. In two games I have seen Mata play two decent mouthwatering passes and that will have to change substantially should Pedro be brought in.

So you want the scouting system to find winger obviously better than pedro, that lvg doesn't know about.
Hmmmm

Pretty sure the Eds made their feelings known about him being another try hard headless chicken who can't time his runs. Ah well at least Pedro scores more than ADM.

Chris the reman read through the majority of my posts and explain how I try to find the negative??? My point is do we need Pedro and is he going to make a huge difference, would we not be better sticking with what we have and waiting til next summer to buy the star we need up there? Some people make me laugh on here. Try to find the negative. I'm not a fan of lvg and I wanted di maria to stay. My only crimes on here but yet people still find the need to be nobs

How on earth has LVG managed to scrape through his career without these pearls of wisdom

Ahh pepgiggs. You was doing so well until your last couple of sentences distorted it. again.

I do agree with you though (just posted a bit further up about it ) but l do feel Pedro is too lightweight for this league.

Yes they do pep, and when u sort that out we can have a debate about the need for players.

Maze, i think mata's passing will come to the fore with better(smarter) runs into space - ala januzaj in the last game. If our forwards improve their movement, I have no doubt mata has the ability to find them.

Alexis Sanchez played with these 'magicians' and his career didn't exactly fall apart since his move to the EPL.
