Makes sense.

Sure we only praise De Gea, Mata, Kagawa and Hernandez because we're all gay for them.

To be fair, it's an inherent human trait to value unknown quantities higher than known ones. You'd be better off comparing the McCarthy reaction to the Herrera reaction than bringing in players everyone has seen every week.

There was undeniably an enormous element of this at play amongst people arguing against signing Baines last summer.

Oh I know man, I was just using the quote to highlight how absolutely ridiculous that Jane82 troll was.

Tancredi Palmeri(I know...) on Fabregas:

#Fabregas -1 As said two weeks ago, Fabregas people already had few contacts with Manchester United, whom wasn't turned down by Fabregas

Tancredi Palmeri ‏@tancredipalmeri 13m
#Fabregas -2 while last year Mufc was immediately rejected.Fabregas has accepted the idea to leave Barcelona.But,still absolutely no bid has

#Fabregas -3 been made by Mufc:cause usually the bid is only the last step,made when clubs are sure that player won't reject.And actually

Tancredi Palmeri ‏@tancredipalmeri 10m
#Fabregas -4 Cesc has made aware Mufc that,in spite of not turning down them,still - in case of moving - his priority will be Arsenal. But

Tancredi Palmeri ‏@tancredipalmeri 9m
#Fabregas -5 the problem is that so far Arsenal haven't made any tiny step,nor with player nor with club,absolutely nothing.So the situation

Tancredi Palmeri ‏@tancredipalmeri 7m
#Fabregas -End is in stand-by.Fabregas waiting for Arsenal;Mufc waiting for Fabregas;Barcelona waiting for evaluating a proper bid

This thread would be a lot more interesting if it weren't full to the gills of people posting bull**** that they already know is bull****. Next time just tell us what some guy in the pub said and be done with it.

He may be a spoofer normally but even the supposed reliable journalists have contradicted themselves recently, just thought it was interesting about Fabregas. We may as well not post any links in here unless it's from the BBC in that case seeing as we can't believe anything else.

Evra must have extended his contract? Says so here;

Vermijl - I forgot he existed. I wonder will we see him filling in at right back. :pac:

Macheda's time at United finally comes to an end - free transfer.

Mars Bar

Macheda is probably be gonna be let go. Thought he'd never leave!

Evra extends his contact 1 more year.

Hopefully as back up to Shaw. I don't want to see him starting.

Mikeyt086

Can't say I'm happy about Evra staying on for another year. Don't think he is up to it any more. Also, if this effects our signing of a left-back I'm going to actually cry.

Mantis Toboggan

I like the idea of Evra staying, as long as we sign luke Shaw as well.

TheTownie

Shaw deal not gonna be done before the World Cup, Shaw quote;

"Transfer talk is completely gone – I am here to focus on England and England only."

Would be shocked if Utd got something done before the World Cup now.

Ahhh!!!!!!!!

It had better not impact on the Shaw bid, I wonder would Evra staying another year affect his decision?

Bloody hope not :mad:

bantee

Happy that Paddy is staying, would have been too many experienced players leaving at the one time.
Hopefully he does only play a squad role and that Butters isn't promoted to no. 1 LB. Shaw would be 1st choice of all available LBs imo

sky88

God im fearing the worst with this summer deals already i dont think my heart can take been broken like last years again

Adolescenteen

The signing of Evra shouldn't impact the Shaw deal. It just means that if we do end up signing Shaw, we'll have an experienced back-up player who can mentor him. Shaw would be first choice, no doubt.

Losing Rio, Vidic and Evra all in one year would have be mad. I am delighted he's staying, he seriously gets what the club is about and he's supposed to be a fantastic leader in the dressing room.

I much rather him as back-up than Buttner.

redbaron_99

Bit suspicious of Evra signing a contract extension. All we need now is an official line from the club of there being no value in the market...

Ah Jaysus calm down. The window is not even open yet.

Bring back the days of teletext when the only info on transfer gossip page. Much calmer days.

I found out we signed Dwight Yorke on teletext

The_Kew_Tour

I found out we signed Andy Cole when I got home from school reading Teletext.

I came for first time.

This time last year, nobody would have been surprised to see Evra go, or would have expected Vidic to leave. One year on, it looks like we've done things arseways.

adox

Trying to resist being pessimistic but there's a sense of déjà vu already.

MD1990

Konoplyanka on whether he'd leave for Man Utd or stay at Dnipro should the choice arrive: "I'd most probably stay at Dnipro.

He wants to join Liverpool. Smart move if Liverpool are still interested

Reading between the lines of that quote - "I'm planning on having a great tournament, so I can milk as much as possible from United afterwards."

dahat

Shaw is only 18,Evra staying will be great for him and the club. We have lost a lot of experience recently so Evra will be needed next year.

He could have gone like Vidic but chose to stay and fight on for the club.

Fight for the club? Ha. We'll more than likely get the same pathetic and insipid displays from him again next season.

He'll talk the talk but not bother even standing up to attempt the walk.

Cokeistan

Pity Macheda never worked out at United. Still, won't ever forget him for this moment. What a strike

yomtea98

So Evra gives us another year of **** defending because of his PASSION.

Vic Vinegar

He's confident anyway...

Are the type of display put in by Evra in recent times really that beneficial for a new LB?

Wouldn't have thought they'd be in the role model class tbh

madcabbage

Only seen the news, can't believe he's not getting the boot! :mad:

The_Kew_Tour

Wait till Cleverley and Young get contract extensions doubling their wages and we let Chico and Nani go.

Twill be meltdown central of RAWK proporations.

Maybe Van Gaal will change him to a winger...with a bit of luck

Trigger

In fairness there has been an contract on the table for him since he played a certain amount of games this year. It was up to him himself and he probably wasn't offered a better deal anywhere else.

Will I Amnt

I love when a fan of another club comes in and says something thinking they're going to get a reaction and... nothing, not a dickie bird :pac:
