Just wondering if the signing of Depay (if he signs) means the end for Januzaj or will he go out on loan?
I personally think that we will keep him and Di Maria will be the one to leave.
I don't think LVG want's to get rid of Di Maria, i think the player himself might decide he's had enough due to his problems off the field which would be a shame.
I still think that we need that one world class midfielder and a top centre back and another forward if Falcao and Hernandez leave which we are led to believe.
We just need to make sure that we cement that Champions League place, even though we are playing well I still have this niggling doubt at the back of my mind that something still might go wrong. I hope I am wrong.

I can't for one second see Di Maria leaving. I think he has the strength of character to prove himself, he grew up as a Man Utd fan and now he is our number 7. He will be much improved after a full pre-season and he can put the traumatic year behind him. Next year I think we will see Di Maria starting on the left and Mata/Depay on the right. A pacey, intelligent and threatening attack.

Apparently LvG has told Januzaj not to worry and to get his head down, bulk up and concentrate on next season. So I don't think Depay signing would be the end of Januzaj, Depay is a different type of player to Januzaj anyway, I've always felt Januzaj has reminded me of a young Kaka where as Depay has more in common with a young Ronaldo. I'm not saying either will become as good as Kaka and Ronaldo but if they could you'd want both in your team. I could see Januzaj being moulded to play in the position that Fellaini is playing in as the most advanced on the midfield three rather than wider of the front three.

And as for Januzaj. We should have enough games to share around for everyone, but he may benefit more from going out on loan to a team in the Europa League. I have said Southampton before but the relationship between LVG and Koeman will not happen. But, maybe a team like Aston Villa if they make Europa League through their FA Cup run might be a good choice for guaranteed first team football.
{Ed002's Note - Januzaj interests PSV on a loan to buy deal.}

Fresh when did Di Maria become a United fan growing up? You hear something new everyday on this site.

Januzaj needs to concentrate on putting the ball in the box, passing to a red shirt, and not losing possession as much. Once he has mastered those particular skills then we can ponder where he fits in to a Manchester United starting eleven.

Just asking the questions Chris, just asking the questions!

Read it somewhere a while ago. And I personally see Januzaj's role being central, not as winger going forwards. Like Shappy said, a Kaka type player who could take Fellaini's position in the team as an attacking midfielder. As it stands though I think Fellaini stays in the team next season and rightfully so based on his performances.

Ed002 are United looking to let Januzaj go on loan or sell permanently?
I think he could have a bright future with us, as long as he keeps his head down.
{Ed002's Note - I really don't know - and what the kid wants will matter.}

I'd get rid of Januzaj - He had a few good games benefiting from the "nobody knows me" or the Macheda rule and that's it.
He has looked half decent at times, but he won't get enough games for us to develop and he has a greedy lazy streak to him, but lacks the class of a young Ronaldo to get away with it.
I see him as the future David Bentley.

Some people are far too quick to write people off. Adnan is young and has bags of talent, would be disappointed if he left even if Depay signs.
