Manchester United 15/16 thread

[chygry]

I loathe how van Gaal handled the Valdés situation, but this is all good news. Apparently van Gaal will make De Gea the main man once again, once he signs a new contract. I'm happy.

 

[Pogba4Now]

He signed a new deal yessss. He will still go to Madrid at some point but at least this will keep him focused. This is a win-win situation for us. We have the second best GK in the world for at least another year (don't think he will want to leave in Jan).

"I am delighted to be starting this new chapter in my United career," said De Gea.

"I have always enjoyed playing with these great players in front of our fantastic fans. Manchester United is a special club and Old Trafford is an ideal place for me to continue to develop my career.

"I'm looking forward to putting a difficult summer behind me and concentrating on working hard to improve and help my team-mates to be successful."

United boss Louis van Gaal added: "I am absolutely delighted David has signed a new contract, he is one of the best goalkeepers in world football.

"I am very pleased that he will be part of the team for many years to come. David made a very important contribution to our performance last season and he has been the club's player of the year for the last two seasons.

"He is a popular player who is keen to learn and enhance his game. At such a young age for a goalkeeper, he has many years ahead of him."

I don't think it will be "for many years to come" lol.

Edurne better move to Manchester and learn to sing English songs or De Gea will have to ditch her for good.

He signed a new contract already? Oh joy! :P Also I heard that Jorge Mendes is done with Real Madrid because of his situation.

Second best goalkeeper in the world? I agree. I think he's just a tiny bit above Courtois, with Neuer being the best.

I have no idea who Edurne who is, but from what you're saying it must be his gf, yeah better move her there or find a new one from Madchester. I know that the nightlife is great over there. :P

Nady, I expected more Pauloish act, where is that big David stays sign

And totally fuck you Perez
He will spend twice as more now ... Poor Iker, left for nothing ... Navas the only winner at Madrid

 

[Arnau]

Probably has a clause that if Madrid offers X money they let him go.

 

[kp41]

If true, Pretty sure that x amount is far more than 30m + we have him for at least one more year.

 

[adedawson]

signing of the window!

Yeah isn't that what happenen with Suarez?

 

[Mandieta6]

De Gea is at most 3rd best GK.

De Gea is at most 3rd best GK.

Okay, it's between Courtois and De Gea. Both sharing the second and third place in my opinion. Really difficult to prefer one over another. Maybe Courtois has a small edge over De Gea. They are quite similar though, good reflexes, fantastic positioning, De Gea could do better with crosses and corners and setting the wall, but in that regard he has improved a lot since he started playing in the EPL.

Oh and how could I forget about Lloris? 2-4 then between the three of them.

By the way Mandieta6 who do you think is a better goalkeeper for Barca? The chileno or Ter Stegen? If I was a Barca fan I'd prefer Bravo, I think Ter Stegen is a tad bit overrated and sometimes concedes too many easy goals.

 

[Arnau]

Bravo is more safe because he is in his peak and doesnt take risk but Ter Stegen is far more talented, he will be a legend at Barça. Bravo starting at League makes sense because Luis Enrique doesnt has any reason to drop him. Zamora award with only 19 goals conceded...

 

[chygry]

Of course your goalkeepers win the Zamora award every time around when you score 150 goals and concede 15. I dunno, I prefer Bravo over Ter Stegen, also it makes sense starting him in La Liga like you said because he has lots of experience playing there as well, you know.

 

[Pogba4Now]

Based on last years performances, de Gea was a bit better than Courtois.

 

[Pogba4Now]

He signed a new contract already? Oh joy! :P Also I heard that Jorge Mendes is done with Real Madrid because of his situation.

How come you don't know Edurne, that famous bitch who is the reason why de Gea wanted to go to Madrid?

Google her. She is de Gea's girlfriend since before he came to Manchester. She is a Spanish singer who stays in Madrid despite de Gea staying in Manchester. She has openly said that she does not like Manchester. What a bitch. If you "love" someone, you have to make compromises.

 

[Pogba4Now]

Singer Edurne Garcia, 29, agreed Manchester was “uglier than the back of a fridge”

Didn't know she is 5 years older than de Gea.

Haha yeah I've heard all about that story. I've never bothered to look her up though until now, apparently she has some kind of a career in TV business in Madrid, at least that's what I remember reading.

Singer? I was actually quite certain that she had something to do with TV, but yet again singers perform on TV so I'm half-right which is fine enough.

Well I gotta give it to her - would you rather live in UK in a shitty weather, somewhere near Manchester, or in Madrid? Or Spain in general especially if you've got a career going on there. The answer is quite simple.

But yeah I agree with the last bit that you said, if one loves someone then compromises have to be made. Anyway that's that.

Didn't know she is 5 years older than de Gea.

Oh and she doesn't even look that good, maybe if she was brunette or something but that's all up to De Gea.

 

[Pogba4Now]

A very special day, too many emotions and thankful for the affection. @ManUtd #MUFC

I feel proud to announce that I'll continue with you and @manutd. Thanks for your unconditional support!

Why should she be the one to make a compromise? I'm sure her fans would say the same thing about De Gea.

She probably shouldn't. The whole thing goes two ways and both of them should find a compromise that suits them the best.
