Would he get in ahead of Herera though? That's the question

See it more of a case of Carrick or Schweinsteiger.

Would rather we just signed Scneiderlin, then focused on getting in a centre back and a centre forward

It was more of a sarcasm statement

Whatever...

Schneiderlin must be first priority for this position. Longer term replacement for Carrick, but I can see the sense in getting Schweinsteiger, he'd bring a stability in the midfield for the CL (Should we qualify).

Looks like van Gaal is trying to establish a Premiership team and a squad strong enough to compete across all competitions.

......with only one forward....

€10m per year salary they report. That's just under £138,000 per week. I wonder what he currently gets.

Imagine the Schweins, the Schweins

If we had Carrick, Schneiderlin and Schwein in the side, we could play without CBs. Or a keeper.

Oh dear Ji!

Thought you were the bastien of good puns as well.

I would rather we signed both. We could sort our midfield out once and for all for under £35m. Ando allegedly cost £24m, just to put that in perspective.

Carrick, Schwein, Schneid, Herrera.

We will suffer injuries and are looking to compete in 4 competitions so I think having 4 CMs is a must. Even if we had those four I guarantee we would still rely on Blind occasionally, although I see him playing more often at LB tbh.

Carrick isn't getting any younger either.
