Pretty funny looking back on it now

Downing’s crossing is excellent and he uses his pace and skill well down the flanks. He is Quick, incisive, accurate, a tricky winger to play against. While he may not have the Razamatz of Mata and in my opinion the over rated status because he is foreign, I for one was delighted to reading twitter on the evening of the 12/07/11 to see that LFC had agreed a fee for Downing, £20 million ? only £3 million more than Utd paid for Young

Oh scroll down the comments EPIC LOLZ

Kagawa is very close to Hazard's level, though. Nothing wrong with saying that. Not to mention we don't know how both of them will perform in the PL, Hazard may flop.

Kagawa is WAY better than Hazard. Kagawa has won twice a Big league beating Bayern. Hazard has won the French League. Hazard is a flop with the NT & average to barely above average in the CHL.

So at the point Kagawa>>>Hazard. But anyways its a bad buy because United needs Full-Backs & Central Mid-fielders way more than a CAM.

I have always thought they are good for a Sunderland kind of club. For United they are shit. Fabio is atleast decent defensively. Rafael has like 0 ideas about defensive positioning. And that suddenly does not grow. Takes a lot of time.

Even David Luiz's defensive positioning is way better than Rafael. And Evra has at the most 1 or 2 years at a good level,he was probably fallen down quite a lot.

I guess United are content with playing almost 40 year old likes Giggs & Scholes at CM or they are expecting rookies like Cleverly to overshadow a guy like Ozil

"Although his goals ratio is 50% less to that of Mata, we must ask the question of which league Downing is playing. The premiership is the greatest league in the world, faster, stronger and more exciting than any of its rivals."

Burst out laughing at this point lol. "His stat is not as good, but only because he plays in the better league". :facepalm:

I will gladly accept the £5million difference for the premiership experience and the fact that Downing is English.

eco smile Those quality Englishmen hmm

Kagawa is much more proven than Hazard atm and dont be suprised if he outperforms him.....

Actually Kagawa is probably a better signing for Man U than Hazard would be considering how they want to play.

In no way is it a laughable suggestion that Kagawa could perform at a similar level. ( like it is with Downing and Mata)

In fact Kagawa would have cost similar to what Hazard cost if he was'nt in the last year of his contract.

In what way, shape or form? I'm not in any way slating Kagawa as I actually think he's a brilliant player but I just fail to see how you can say that.

Defensively,Ligue 1 has proven to be one of the toughest leagues,with it consistently having the least amount of goals conceded.

Not saying Kagawa is not a great player,but I fail to see how he's "WAY better" or "much more proven" than Hazard.

Kagawa probably would've been hyped to death if not for his Asian heritage.

I've watched both and in my opinion Kagawa is better.

Nice ignorance there.

When talking about this season Goetze was injured for majority of the season.

Kagawa came back from a terrible injury and put in some inspiring perfomances and scored some crucial goals when Lewandowski was missing sitters to his beautiful assists.Actually before Gundogan put some dazzling displays at the end of the season whole creativity burden was upon him.

Goes to show injury has not slowed him down,infact he has gotten better and has become more mature as a player.

Rafael is a very good player. He's only problem is he has discipline issues and concentration lapses, that with time, he will iron out.

He is a very good prospect, but just like many youngsters, is prone to mistakes. Fabio is just too injury prone. He will go on loan next season to get games, which is impossible for him at Utd atm due to Evra never ever being injured.

Both are really talented.

As a player Hazard is better than Kagwa. There is a reason multiple top clubs were after Hazards signature . Hazard has a terrific final ball and he is one of the best dribblers of today. Kagwa will come close i agree but Hazard is 2 years younger and just 21.The potential is huge and already better than Kagwa imo.

Lewandoski barely played 10-11. And Goetze too. He played mainly when kagawa did not play. 1st half of 10-11 & 2nd half of 11-12 he was injured. And that was when Dortmund scored most points a big lead & that was when Kagawa was playing CAM & Goetze was injured.

And no player can win a league on his own. What are you saying man??? This was a ridiculous thing to say in your part. Ofcourse Dortmund have some good players & a great coach but Kagawa was probably their best player. Its not hard to understand.

And among Hummels & Subotic,I dont rate Subotic,I would rather see Santana play at Dortmund
