Indeed, it's bound to be better than last year.

I'm seriously impressed with LVG and what he's doing.

Not saying we will win anything this year but he's got that team spirit back and got them playing some nice expansive footy, even Fletcher is looking good, although he still manages the odd stray pass .

Paddy Crerand said on Saturday that he'd had a long coversation with Rooney and he's the happiest he's ever seen him at United but wouldn't go into details of the conversation, for obvious reasons I would imagine......


Big one tonight, time to turn the dippers over

Yea i was blown away, always thought young was good my mate said last session he needs to go, but so far this season he looks good.

Anyone heard anything about Trturo Vidal transfer Juventus want to swap Nani and Javier Hernandez for him?

Januzaj gets the number 11 shirt from Giggsy, good call

That leaves the No7 available for Di Maria or Vidal, or maybe the 7 and 9 for the pair of them

One can only wish......

Number 11 is a good call.
I see Luke Shaw has been sidelined for 4 weeks.

Rojo has agreed terms and is on the way, with Nani going the other way. We still need more talent though.

As much as I'd like to see Di Maria where is he going to play him in his 5-3-2 system.

Should bring Khedira as well if he isn't going for Vidal.

I still thimk Vidal should be our No1 priority, that's as near as you will get to replacing Keane.
