    I thought Rojo looked **** at the World Cup. Extremely rash in the tackle and an accident waiting to happen. If he's their main defensive signing I'll be delighted.

      The fact that some of the papers seem to totally ignore is that United seem to need a fair few top class signings to improve their first eleven - let alone their squad.

          Average is better than they have though.

            I saw a couple of their games and he didn't impress me either, didn't think his crossing was that good either. I remember thinking that we'd get Moreno instead, despite never having seen him

              Yup Rojo would improve their back line, doesn't say much though

                Just tweeted it, fair play, their fans are full of BS. You'd think they hadn't spent a penny the way they go on about City and Chelsea.

                      They sell a lot of squad players.

                      Selling Garcia and Rodwell got them something like £35m this summer.

                          Yep sorry. £25m. Still I think I read the other day they have only spent around £20m this summer what with all the ins and outs.

                            Aye, it's only 5 transfer windows, 2.5 years and most of their heavy investment was before then.

                            They had the core of their team in place and had a lot of deadwood to sell, keeping their net spend down.

                                Rojo looked decent enough to me. He is better than they have and will be a good signing I reckon. Still nowhere near enough to save them though.
