Not a bad deal for us, not least because it means he won't be going to Liverpool  |
You can have him old boy as he will never be the same as he was before.

We might be splashing the cash at the moment but I can see United wanting to try to recoup some of it wherever possible, Welbeck being a good example.

I don't see the problem with it, he's come to the club being told he is the no.2 and will be able to help with De Geas development. The club won't sell De Gea unless he forces a move, and I seriously doubt signing Valdes is going to make him do that.

I can pretty much guarantee he's better than what you have at the moment!

I thought the same about Beckham and Ronnie although granted the former left under a cloud and the latter always wanted to end up at Real.
I just can't get my head around a keeper with his success and experience and clearly still with something to offer being happy to take a contract that gets him sitting out games most of the time.
Valdes turning up won't make him force a move but turning down an offer of being the no. 1 choice in goal for a bigger and currently better team (plus most likely a bigger pay packet) is a tough sell.

Valdes coming in won't force a sale but it looks obvious to me that they are planning ahead for the summer. One of them won't be there at the start of next season imo

Re: Football Season 2014/15
Westley seems to have woken up at last, 4 league wins on the bounce now (I think anyway). Not so against him now.

Re: Football Season 2014/15
Yes, 4 wins out of 5 apparently. I hope this is not a short term improvement, but the start of a long run which sees us getting automatic promotion back to League 1.

Our home form is keeping us in the play offs but we must improve our inconsistent away form.
