Learn your football recent history. What he did at ajax and bayern was impressive, and what he did with az is madness.

I don't quite know why anybody is claiming ManU jumped on the LvG hype train because of the WC: he had signed the contract before the WC even started. It just seems like some Mancunians had never heard of him (for some strange reason) and only started paying attention during the WC?

Is LvG good for every team? No. Of course not. Does he know ManU like Ferguson, or show as much passion for the team? Of course not. But stating that he's a bad trainer is pretty ignorant, given his track record.

Whether this buy works out? I don't really know. But it's clear that ManU needs a striker, because there's no way Rooney and Depay can carry the team through the CL, League and cup without backup. And Fellaini is a pretty ghetto option for a striker.

LvG is a coach who delivered at several different teams. He is most definitely not a bad trainer.

But guess what? There is no trainer in the world who has a 100% perfect record with every club he was part in

That is far from a perfect record...

According to Marca the De Gea saga is done. 30-35 mln euro.
The funny thing is that now RM wants to sell Navas... With 6 hours remaining before the deadline.

It's very sad to be Kiko Casilla right now.

Reached final in DFB cup, reached semi-final in CL. Won the league.

Not bad at all.

Your personal vendetta against one of the best coaches at the moment is pretty damn annoying. We know alright? You do not like Pep Guardiola. No need to bring it up every second page.

What a weird move, United needs more forwards and they let Januzaj go ? Wut ? Seems strange.

Not to mention he was scoring and playing, its not like he was rotting in the bench

Apparently it's a bad move for Dortmund. The vocal part of online fans are incredibly mad.

"We're back to developing talent for big clubs."
"Disastrous management by Watzke and Zorc."
"Loaning a 20yr old without an option to buy him is horrible business."
"Can't identify with him as he'll leave again."
"We had so much time and money and did nothing."
"Bayern got a 2yr loan and a clause that's how you do business."
"He and Gündogan are in the way of people who want to play for Dortmund. They'll both leave and we'll have one giant hole to fill next season."

I actually agree with the online fans. Loaning out a 20 year old talent from a big club is a bad decision for a club like Dortmund. For clubs like Augsburg or Hannover it would be awesome. But Dortmund should really plan long-term...
Either Januzaj sucks and he will be waste of money for BVB or he will own and ManUtd will take him back

Isn't Dortmund currently betting heavily on their youth players? So maybe they have some awesome 17-y.o. talents that could break through next year, but it's just too early now. Alternatively, the financial situation might be tricky right now and they cannot afford to spend big on buying a player as talented as Januzaj. I am personally not too clued up on the situation, but the mere idea of renting a player to tide you over for a year is not bad, especially for a player of that potential.

We have a bunch of ~17 year old players who are extremely gifted but it's atleast one year too early for them to join the first team.
So that might be a reason but I don't think it is.

I don't think it's ideal but can see why it would happen and might not be too bad after all.
There were rumours about Halilovic, Januzaj and Yarmolenko so it was clear that Tuchel wanted to add a left-footed midfielder. I have no idea about ligue 1 etc but how many of those exist and are both affordable and an immediate option for the first team? Until 4 days ago we couldn't even promise that there will be participation in an european competition.

Apparently we're paying close to no fee so we're paying let's say €5m in wages? That's okay imo. Sure it'll hurt should Januzaj and Gündogan leave next season but we didn't spend much money. That creates a situation in which we'll most likely have lots of cash for Tuchel to spend after he saw for a whole year what is needed.

Don't get me wrong I would've loved it if we tried our luck with El-Shaarawy, Lamela, Ljajic, etc but right now and after the disasters that were Immobile and Kampl (good players, did not fit our team) I understand why our management wouldn't spend all the money we have. And I bet we wanted an option to buy Januzaj but I doubt it would've been low enough. ManUtd might have agreed on a €45m fee but that is absolutely out of reach.
