Isco or James as attacking mid

modric(di maria)-isco-kroos
bale-benzema-ronaldo

i don't know how much James would benefit the midfield tho. Isco is pretty good already.

Club America & Chivas. Worst sponsor ever, but Bimbo bread helped me survive college when I spent all my food $ on alcohol and couldn't afford real groceries :lol: :pimp:

Why can't they change the sponsor colours on the Spurs kit?

Don't get why some sponsors want to completely throw off a jersey.

The Puma Arsenal replicas aren't tight at all. Only the match/ authentic is skin tight. The quality isn't great though compared to other Puma kits. Hopefully they drop Puma at the end of the 5 year deal but the money they're making is definitely worth it.

Louis van Gaal era underway at Manchester United as diggers move into Carrington training complex after Dutchman complains it gets too windy

Diggers pictured driving into Manchester United's Carrington training complex

Louis van Gaal said the training complex is like 'an open field' and that too much wind reaches the pitches

Van Gaal said the facilities are 'fantastic' but insisted 'something must be done' about the effect of the wind

In 2013 Sir Alex Ferguson described the upgraded Carrington facilities as his 'best signing'


The Louis van Gaal era at Manchester United looks to have started already as the diggers moved into the club’s Carrington training complex.

The Dutchman spoke to the media on Thursday for the first time since being appointed as Manchester United boss and described facilities as 'fantastic' but said something must be done about how windy it gets.

'The (training ground) needs some more intimacy and I have asked (for that) already,' Van Gaal explained.

‘Because now it is an open field and there is always wind and wind is not always the friend of the players and the football. So we have to do something about that. But the facilities are fantastic.’

And it seems the work is could already be underway as diggers arrived on Friday morning and could get to work on making the changes Van Gaal required.

Sir Alex Ferguson ensured major changes were made to United's training facilities towards the end of the nineties, fearing that they would be inadequate for a team looking to dominate the Premier League in the 21st century.

Construction work began to upgrade Carrington in 1999, with £22million spent before the facilities were opened in the summer of 2000, replacing United’s old training ground, The Cliff. Another £8m was spent on the Academy Facility, which opened two years later.

And in 2013, a medical and sports science facility worth £25m was unveiled, taking the club's spending on the overall complex to more than £60m.

Ferguson described the enhanced training headquarters as his 'best signing' and well worth the investment from the club.

'It's given us a training facility where all the players are saying, 'Wow, this is some training ground now'. It's one of the best. And I think if any player were to come here with any doubts about where they should be, they'll soon find out that this is a fantastic set-up.'

Van Gaal took time to praise the sense of community he has found since arriving in Manchester on Wednesday.

‘It’s unbelievable how many people are working for the same cause,' he said.

‘It’s also a family and everybody is proud to work for Manchester United.

‘That feeling I have is fantastic.'

The former Bayern Munich boss said he was pleased United's season tickets had already sold out ahead of the start of the 2014-15 Premier League season.

‘I have heard that the season-tickets are already sold out and I am very proud.

‘I hope you support us when we are losing and not only winning, because we will win and lose together.’
 
I never saw James play before the WC but is he really that much better of a footballer than Isco, or did he just get hot in the WC. 90M seems like a lot to pay for someone who isn't a proven sure fire commodity in a top league, like Gareth Bale was.
