I'd say no to any Madrid cast offs ordinarily, but a 23 year old CB, given their record with defenders. He's not exactly had a consistent run due to their preference for old #@&%!s like Pepe and Ramos.. plus he has to be better than £#%&!ing Smalling and Blind.

That's nonsense imo. There's no doubt the Glazers have been tight arses during the various refinances, and we'll never spend our cash reserves like Real Madrid or Barcelona. But you have to be honest and say United have spent as wasted a hell of money in the past 24 months.
New TV and commercial deals, and a new manager means we'll be dropping plenty more in the transfer market.
