Others say Bayern are favourites and I'm sure he'd much rather go there.

I hope he does go to Bayern, last thing we need is United loading their team up with quality.

Di Maria at United. :sick:

Hopefully it ends in tears.

In the mix for what? Not for the title unless they sign some world class CB's and everyone gels quickly.

They might have a chance for 3rd/4th because a forward line of Rooney, RVP, Mata, and Di Maria should in theory be pretty devastating.

Even if it fails to live up to that hype they will easily make top 4 if they sign him.

I dunno, let's see how quickly he adapts. You could argue Ozil hasn't adapted yet and Sanchez doesn't look like he's going to hit the ground running. Di Maria might be the same.

You then have the Spanish league factor where there's very little contact and only a dozen competitive games per season. Whenever I've seen Di Maria he goes down with the slightest of contact, not sure he'll be able to do that here. Still a class player though.

I'm not so sure.

They already have a very good attack. Granted it usually depends on whether Van Persie is fit and whether Rooney can be bothered, but attack isn't really their problem. Di Maria is a very, very good player no doubt but will spunking €60m and insane wages (to go along with the insane wages of the three they already have) really going to help their defence? Or their dodgy middle? We all hope not.

It does sound a little arrogant, but I'd be far more worried if they were signing a shitload on some better central defenders and a centre mid or two. In any case, Sky seem to be back tracking now by saying Madrid actually want £75m and that it's not even close to completion :lol:

Good old Ballague.
