Just watching MOTD. What a goal from QPR's Matt Phillips. Got me thinking that we score hardly any goals from outside the box. This lad Phillips has a hell of a shot, so maybe we should put in a cheeky bid. We could get him for under £3M I'm sure. Could be a great signing, and would be a much cheaper alternative to Vidal of Pogba.
Also from the same game, Zaha was world class. What were we thinking of letting him go back to Palace for 75 quid, or whatever it was. He has all the attributes to be one of the greats. Could have saved ourselves £59.7M on the DiMaria deal. For me, Zaha is a better player.

i can't tell if this is a serious post?

SPB, why? I think it is a very valid post.

Its half n half spd, tongue in cheek humour with a lil bit of truth.
Well played Betty.

I believe signing Zaha back along with Jarvis, Matt Phillips and Nathan Redmond would definitely win us the league next year.
And maybe we could sign Cattermole too, beast of a player.
Tim Howard could be a brilliant replacement for De Gea. Like for like.

All joking aside, I think Bolasie could go on to be a very good player. Then again, he could sign for us, spend most of the time on the bench, the rest of the time playing out of position, then go to a Championship club on loan and then end up back where he started and try and rebuild his career. Hold on.

Betty, you do realise that Zaha has been fairly poor this season, and hasn't even been first choice at Palace?
The lad has one good performance against a very poor QPR side, and suddenly he's better than a player who was a major part of one of the best teams in the world for the last five years?
By all accounts Zaha's attitude was appalling when he arrived: he believed he was a star player and had nothing left to learn. He was given oportunities at United and failed. He was given oportunities at Cardiff and he failed. And after the best part of a season back at Palace, he's just about starting to look like an EPL player, so obviously now he's world class.

Like it centurion, like it.

Danny, Zaha has been awesome since Alan Pardew took over. Just shows what effect a good manager can have on a player. I bet Pardew would get the best out of DiMaria and Falcoa.
If United do get rid of Van Gaal in the summer, we could do worse than Pardew.

Okay Betty, now that I've had a chance to wake up and wash off the whiff of stale ale from my festering Sunday morning body, I think I get your game.

See, you confused me Danny. I thought you were double-bluffing him, so I didn't want to say anything.
