I finally lost faith in Januzaj. Reports re Lucas Moura this morning. Could he be the winger we lack?

I finally lost faith in Januzaj. Reports re Lucas Moura this morning. Could he be the winger we lack? again. I mean he's 24, had a good season in France (12 goals, 5 assists), look, for the right price he's decent but he plays the same position as Mhki primarily. I'd still say Bale is a better option, then i'd say Ousmane Dembele is better (he's younger and had a better season). We'd be paying 40 million. We're in Perisic talks also, 36 million. Honestly he's solid but is he what we need? Rooney apparently could be on his way to of all teams, stoke city (in a 45 million package, assuming part of that is the fee, part of that is wage).

Perisic is a grafter, tall, with good skills he's ideal Mourinho fodder but does that mean Martial is leaving or going fighting it out centrally, 'cause I'm not sure he's up to the latter yet.

Oh, and sadly, Janazai is fucked in this league. Such a shame.

That price isn't too bad(€35m), thought he was Croatia's best player at the Euro's but he is terribly inconsistent which is a problem we have with our current options. Suits Mourinho though and will give us a different option, a more natural winger which we do lack and could possibly play as a wing back.

Let him go honestly, he's decent but come on, 10 goals and 9 assists, thats alright but Dembele got that in the Bundesliga, for Dortmund and is going to cost less then that, not to mention we could go for a guy like Lemar who would be less or go all out and sign Bale for about 30 million more. Also with the 24 million deal for Keane, it would actually be 18 mill because of the sell on clause (and i was thinking McNair and Blackett would be the one's who came good, not Keane, i mean he was decent sure, but i don't think anyone saw that coming). Absolute bargain. Anyway we're only in for four players. www.skysports.com/football/news/11667/10893522/jose-mourinho-targets-four-summer-signings-for-manchester-unitedA CB (Keane, Van Djk or Lindelof), a Midfielder (Matic), a versatile defender who can play both full-back positions (Semedo,Hysaj and Sidibe come to mind) and a striker (Griezmann) i'm not sure if thats going to be enough, we do need that left winger also i think (and i'm not sure Perisic is going to be good enough, he's a fine player but given how much we need to improve and to justify benching Martial, the player we're bringing in better be special). With this list in mind: CB: Micheal Keane (18 million, would be bonkers not to) Fullback: Nelson Semedo (Probably a bit cheaper to get, though we can't go wrong with either of the three) CM: Nemanja Matic (i'm hoping we get Sanches but i imagine its finally going to happen and Matic comes to United, him at DM would be pretty impressive) Striker: Antonie Griezmann (will be done within a month surely)

I mean it would be great, especially if Jose changes the formation up (and it means we don't have to put Young in that lineup).

Wishful thinking on my part given the Chelsea links.

Well if Chelsea got him, to an extent i wouldn't lose that much sleep over that so long as we went out and actually got a class left-winger (like Bale, Dembele etc)

Herrera apparently rejecting Barca to stay with us. Despite the fact he could link up, and most likely start (that Barca midfield ain't what it used to be) there.
Make this man captain now.

So Keane + Griezmann 8/10 at least for both.
Not a bad start to the window
I think Ibra is going which is terrible though.
