So looks like we will rap up Di Maria - Great signing even if for 100m. Money should be no object to us in our predicament.
Reports are stating we have an interest in De Jong and Blind and for me, if we rap those 2 up as well, what a summer transfer window!!!
We have to remember, we can't fix all our problems in one window. Signing Herrera, Di maria, Rojo, Shaw and possibly De Jong and Blind would cap off an excellent summer, esp with no CL football. I still think Van Gaal will get strootman eventually, so we should have another quality CM soon.
By next summer, I am sure we will try to sign a world class CB and a few others players.
Biggest issue, is getting everyone fit and bedded in. It's going to take time and I can see the next few weeks being quite patchy.
Van Gaal will fix our problems if given time. He has a plan
Who Next?

Those areas will be addressed in good time, maybe even before the window shuts.

No one ever said di Maria would solve our defensive or midfield problems. But we do also have problems with our wide areas with little perpetration or pace which has a drastic effect on our attacks.
Di Maria in that respect is a brilliant purchase.

Di Maria smells like an Ozil transfer. Good signing but not what’s required

RBW, you're assuming Shaw, Rojo, Herrera and Carrick won't be playing regular football this year? Nor Mata / RVP / Januzaj?
We all get the point that further reinforcements are needed but when you put it across like that, it does sound rather melodramatic.

Ha! If you've detected an irritable tone in my posts, it's because I'm at work. Missus and kids are at home enjoying the weather; meanwhile, my boss decided that since we do business with Europe a lot, we should take off European public holidays and work the UK ones. Hopefully, he'll notice that productivity is stubbornly low on days like today.
