Missed the Wanyama signing?United , City, even Palace & Newcastle have signed players today. Thought we were planning to get our business done early this window? Pre season started today , there's pictures of Chadli & n'jie on the OS today. Lesson learned my arse
Ah don't get me started. Could have signed Schneiderlin, or similar, and played him alongside either Dier or Dembele and replaced either one very easily.
Its the first of July ffs.
Utd signed a free agent, City and Palace activated release clauses, they're hardly tough deals to complete.
Keep your panties on fella.

The window only opened today
The internationals don't start preseason for another 2 or 3 weeks.
We've only got 1 signing left to complete, which sounds like it's in the very final stages of bartering
You should put your name in the hat for prime minister thenHa ha maths ain't my strong point. anything above 3rd and my head gets dizzy and confused
Excellent turn of phrase there matey. Will definitely be using 'I will submit to you' post-haste!I submit to you if we'd signed Schneiderlin, we'd never have known how good Dier is in the DM role.
Well that went over some people's heads.
Townsend's shots?
Funny, I heard he signed for palace...I hear the petition for the prevention of the signing of Townsend from the League of London Pidgeons has reached 100,000 signatures.
But forza is saying if we got schneiderlin before we moved dier to midfield then we wouldn't have seen dier in midfieldWe know exactly how good Dier is in the DM role. No one's taking his place for years.
You dont think Schneiderlin and Dier could partner together like Schneiderlin and Carrick? They're really not the same player. We wont sign Schneiderlin but I fancy Bentaleb would do well alongside either Dier or Wanyama.I submit to you if we'd signed Schneiderlin, we'd never have known how good Dier is in the DM role.

I think @Forza Huddlestone was more suggesting that, had we signed Schneiderlin, it's more likely that Dier wouldn't have been used as a DM?
But I'm suggesting Schneiderlin isn't necessarily a defensive midfielder. I think we were looking at him at a time when it wasn't clear whether Dembele was good enough or fit enough to be a regular. Maybe it's more likely Dembele wouldn't have excelled had we signed him. I think Dier would have played there regardless because he's perfectly suited to the role. I can't see a player like Schneiderlin slotting between the 2 centre backs like Dier does. For balance I think it's better for us to have Dier or Wanyama alongside Dembele/Bentaleb/Mason and Schneiderlin would have replaced Bentaleb/Mason to compete more directly with Dembele.I think @Forza Huddlestone was more suggesting that, had we signed Schneiderlin, it's more likely that Dier wouldn't have been used as a DM?
