Be nice to have Irish player at club again.

Be surprised if we signed nobody but don't see us signing more then 2 players.

Looking forward to seeing cup game at weekend. Its been 11 years since we won the cup. Be nice to change that. Would welcome a good cup run.

Hococop

Did He sign an extension with everton after last season

That accent - we need that fecking Donegal accent .. It would as you say be great to have an southern Irishman on the books again!

We need Diego godin

He would be an excellent signing,I have seen no indications that he is available.
There really is a lack of top class CB's around at the moment.

United were blessed to have Rio and Vidic for all those years together they complimented each other perfectly.Be great to be able to get a good centre back duo again who could play together for multiple seasons.

Donegal is pretty much as far north as you can go mate

I'm guessing he meant southern Ireland as in not Northern Ireland as opposed to North, south, East, West.

Without that separation, we already have an Irishman at the club, Evans.

Ah semantics, got it. Southern Ireland to me sounds just like Munster! Donegal is south to pretty much nobody. Coleman would be a ridiculously good signing in fairness. In terms of Ireland I like the fact that he's currently playing and training with 3 other internationals at Everton, but long term it would be amazing to see him play at a club challenging for things.

The north can have donegal, and louth and cork as well. We'll keep monaghan and cavan though.

Donegal and Cork have given us better players than Monaghan and Cavan.... Keane, Bonner, Given, Coleman.....I'd keep a hold of them!

If Coleman was my next door neighbour I wouldn't have him in the team.

Simply not good enough for United. End of.

Ah here he's at least as good as Shaw, he'd score goals in that United team

It's ridiculous....just because he's Irish.

I couldn't care less if United never had an Irish player for the next 100 years. I'm interested in Manchester United - not whether or not they happen to have a random stranger that just so happens to be born on the same island I was.

What about Piszczek of Dortmund? Or Danilo of Porto?

user2011

Yep can't be having that crap at United... :pac:

You support Liverpool?

We would have won so much more had we not settled for Keane and Irwin.
Coleman would only be backup anyway, there's no way he could displace a Brazilian, sure they're the best at football.

Again, I can show you Titus Bramble doing similar. It means absolutely nothing. How does one gif qualify a player for approval in a transfer? It doesn't. United need and are deserving of superstar quality. Nothing but the very best will suffice.

Out of interest, who would you have ahead of Coleman, realistically?

Coleman has probably been second only to Zabeletta in the League for the past 2-3 years. Raf when he is fit would be up there but we can't keep thinking he is going to suddenly become injury free. The RB position is one we really need to strengthen and Coleman would be an upgrade there, cause Raf is made of glass

The Moldy Gowl

But he has been one if the best in the leauge?

You're just basing it off the fact he is Irish, none of us are. We should have kept Gibson so

And if I was in the Pool thread I'd have said "I'm interested in Liverpool", or "I'm interested in Newcastle" or "I'm interested in Rangers"....or any other club I happened to be discussing if I was a supporter.

How does one persons opinion qualify for disapproval of a player? It doesn't.

End of.

Agree with Astradave's post. Coleman has been up there as one the best in the league for a couple of seasons. Nothing to do with being Irish but just a good footballer.

Deserve? Why, no club deserves any particular quality of player.

Maybe United should sign Titus Bramble.



You see what I'm getting at?

The Moldy Gowl

All he did was score a goal?


We only buy players based off one gif of skill

No, that's not similar. Nobody is saying to sign based on the gif. Bramble is 33, Coleman is 26 and has scored more than him. And the gif is in no way similar.

homerjay2005

Wouldn't be too disappointed if we didn't sign Coleman, decent player but that's about it.

£20m would be insane and be a massive gamble.

And Danilo is 23 and has won 10 trophies in his short career.

So what is it about Coleman exactly when he has won precisely nothing?

Danilo won all them by himself? In a top European League and cup competitions?


Sign him up Ed!!!1!

homerjay2005

Is Clyne a better option?

Could have got him for £2.5m just over 2 years ago, I guess we would need to shell out £15m+ now.

Dayum

Donnielighto wrote: »

Yes, he won them all single-handedly... :rolleyes:

The point is that Danilo has 13 medals which is 13 medals more than Seamus Coleman. What exactly does this tell us? Little. But it tells us he has 13 more medals than Coleman so again, what is so special about Coleman? Apart from being Irish on an Irish forum....nothing. I'm not saying he's a dreadful player. He's not. He's a good footballer but that's it, a good footballer. There are better out there.

I think Danilo would be a good signing also, think he's quality. Coleman has shown to be a good attacking full back in the PL. I'd like to see him given a chance at a bigger club like United where he can start to challenge.

I honestly think he's better than Shaw

I'd take Clyne ahead of Coleman myself.

You're right - Coleman is a decent footballer. I'm not saying he isn't. But United should be aiming higher IMO. Just my opinion.

Yep, a few years younger and qualifies as homegrown for the squad unlike Coleman. Quick attacking and gives good cover in defence.
