Football Who would you buy in the summer?

Given we have all the money, let us pontificate on the premiss that we have made it back into the Champions League.

Who would you buy to sort the squad out?

I guess for simplicity it's worth listing who'd be sacked off as well.

Obviously some of these choices are more personal preference than what I believe Van Gaal will do:

Leaving

Evans
Valencia
Falcao
van Persie
Rafael
Fellaini
Lindegaard

Incoming

Hummels
Laporte or Marquinhos
Danilo
Schneiderlin
Bale / Dybala / some other worldie forward who has genuine pace (I don't genuinely think Bale would leave Madrid but if he did, it would be to United NQAT)

So three quarters of a new first choice defence, an energetic midfielder who's good on the ball & some pace up front that could play across the line.

I've resigned myself to Pogba going to Madrid btw.

Piss easy this tbh.

I don't know, but I find it unbelievable that we need more players than we did last summer, and I think we do

I'd be comfortable with your entire list of players out to go.

I just hope we add some pace and power, PACE AND POWER.

I think that's realistic.

messi must surely relish a fresh challenge. ronaldo is close to retirement. the opportunity for them to play together would be irresistable.

hummels and schweinsteiger's lack of pace probably wouldn't be too exposed. and aguero as a non-playing cripple cheerleader would annoy city the same way hargreaves annoyed us. lahm is like nevilles p & g rolled into one.

good call.

we should choose the committe formally handing over the cheque for pogba carefully for maximum shame. "we would like to apologise for not giving you a run in the team, although this was unavoidable given the quality of our midfield for the last five years." then we bring paul scholes out of retirement to replace him in november. that'll teach the #@&%!y, disloyal little shit stain.

Yes there is. There are absolutely shitloads of good players, historically United haven't gone out & purchased those players with reputations either, they've made them. Sometimes they have been expensive, but the likes of Carrick were excellent domestic players rather than international worldies. Schneiderlin would come under that kind of category, & really should have been bought for £20m last summer.

Not the worst idea, I left Rooney off the initial list on the basis that we can't let van Persie, Falcao & Rooney all go for example. I'd be tempted though.

Agreed.
Ludicrous mess tbf

It's going to be tough to attract the 'elite' without Champions League football but we don't seem to be very good at buying so called star names anyway.

I'd bring Tevez & Pogba back to the Club immediately.
Couldn't care less about their 'attitude' & past history with the Club.
I'd get Nani back off loan too.
We also need an experienced centre half & a top drawer right back.

I'd ship out Fellaini, Evans, Rafael, Van Persie, Falcao, Jones, Van Gaal...

Howedes not Hummels please. He's a much better player.

Lahm would be nice on paper but I have a feeling he would be like Albert Ferrer was when he turned up at Chelsea aged 31 or whatever he was.

If we want an experienced full back how bout Piszczek? He's excellent. He's the wrong side of 29 but younger than Lahm.
