He was just bored in La Liga after winning the World Cup. The thought of gunning for fourth in the PL will reanimate him.

He isn't performing at the same levels as he was a few years ago, but then again neither are Real Madrid. It's a very good signing though, most clubs in the world would have taken him at £42m of what have you.

I still think United are a few players away. The team is certainly better and the feeling at United has improved massively under Ole, but with the nature of Man United, if he doesn't back that up with some concrete silverware he will come under pressure sooner rather than later.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You could argue that a lot of your players aren't performing at the same levels as a few years ago though. You wouldn't say they're all suddenly in decline though would you?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Is that not the very definition of decline? Performance levels dropping from what they were previously?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think it's the suggestion that any perceived decline is a permanent trend, when in Varane's case he's only just turned 28 and is about to embark on an exciting new chapter. Surely it's equally as likely that he'll now have a renewed desire and his performance levels will return to what we know he's capable of. Isn't it also possible that he could even surpass previous levels and be about to go to a whole new level of performance? CB's in particular have traditionally improved with age to a certain degree, so 28 could still be a few years off his best!

I know what I'm basically saying is anything's possible (heck it's 'possible' Phil Jones is about to miraculously mend himself and go all Maldini!), but I think with Varane the chances of this being the truth are pretty good.

Which is a fair point, but... his performances have regressed over a couple of years, including with the national team. At 28, he could easily find his best form again, maybe even better. My point to our friend Culer was, that he isn't the best CB in the world, or top 3 based on performances over x amount of time. He has regressed from where he was.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Can't argue with you. It's one of those that could go either way, but as a Utd fan I'm excited at the possibilty it could go my way. Plus, given the price it's a no-brainer really

Care to point out the negatively by our fan base or are you just looking at what other fans are saying and quoting it as ours

Why did you filter Robb
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He was disrupting article flow. Why how do you know??
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I just do.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I will consider potentially removing him from the filter list, but not immediately. To be fair I do like Robb so putting him in the sin bin is a bit harsh as he always contributes to a debate but he went too far.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

disrupting the flow of an article is going too far.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Outrageous behaviour, Admin should remove him and his immediate family from the site completely.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Robb comes across as a bit of a cry baby and a hypocrite, seeing as he's created an article announcing that you've filtered him.

He filtered me for simply calling him out on his repetitive 'Ole out' agenda. Think that might actually have been the first time I had posted on one of his articles.

Funny enough he disappeared for a few months when Ole started getting a tune of the team.
