I am a first time poster and I would like to commend the EDs and all of you who take the time to post on here as it makes a good read for me and throughly enjoy it so thought I'd take the time to post myself regarding this summers dealings.

I'm pleased and disappointed at the same time.

Depay great potential and wil turn into a brilliant player no doubt


The rest bar schweinsteiger doesn't exactly strike out at me and get me excited to watch them play. Chelsea have hazard, Pedro to name a few, city have aguero toure, silva and even sterling.

Am I the only one who is looking at us and thinking we are no closer to these type of teams. the team looks slow and very defensive. We could so do with a flare player like bale or Neymar but who can ever foresee that happening. So apologies to those who don't agree I can't help but feel slightly deflated right now. Feel free to shoot me down but I'm sure you all agree as Utd fans that that kind of player is needed to boost that team and strike fear into those were playing against.

To be fair Memphis is a player to get excited about, Mata could be if played right, De Gea I loved watching him last season but we are missing that one player who makes you know you will win a game (Ronaldo etc)

Welcome to the madhouse

I think you are right and along the lines with what a few of us have said, my point though would be that we need two players, one wide pacy creative and the other a top striker. At the moment I look at the team and there isn't the fear factor there especially as Memphis is too new and inexperienced to really have that profile yet

Ronny, e needed a RB and brought 1 who looks quality. We needed more control in the middle and bought Morgan and Basti. Depay has huge potential. We are short up front and need more pace on the RW but you seem overly down mate

Totally agree with all your comments and yes I do seem overly down but that's after watching Chelsea, Man City (of all teams) even arsenal develop over the past couple of seasons and I look at their players. hazard,Sanchez,silva, Pedro to name a few and I look at United and it just smacks of slow football.

Yes agree with di Maria and falcao even I thought at the time wow! But something doesn't sit right with me and this is my worry. they are not at the club any more after one season. Superstars are very few and far between now especially when they play for barca and real but to not even nail down Pedro who was second fiddle at barca half the time. Everyone laughs at us because these stars are no longer attracted to Utd and it worrys me that we're going to fall further behind and end up like Liverpool. Maybe I am being pesemistic and I hate it but I'm not totally satisfied seen as Rooney (my fav player should I add) seems to be lacking as the seasons go on. Maybe I'm just to used the units of old the attacking Utd who would terrorise teams down the wings or splitting defenses open with a sublime or deft pass from attacking mid. just my thoughts really I'm happy with what we have done I just think the club needs a star to turn things back to a little more exciting down OT.

United are in no way interested whether the fans think it is exciting or not, they are building a football team not a circus act.
