CRITICISM FROM SCHOLES?

Former Manchester United player and legend Paul Scholes has criticised Louis Van Gaal's side style of play, describing it as a lack of creativity and risk. 

Paul Scholes retired the same time as Sir Alex Ferguson at the end of the 2012/13 season, but before that the English Midfielder was the heart of creativity in the squad. Ever since that artistry has been lost. Louis Van Gaal has tried to resolve this issue by adding Ander Herrera, Bastian Schweinsteiger and Morgan Schneiderlin. However this season in total Ander Herrera has only made one assist, and Bastian Schweinsteiger and Morgan Schneiderlin have made no assists! Paul Scholes is 100% correct. The question is who is the resolve to the midfield crisis?

Here's my list: Parejo, Victor Vazquez, Eremenko or Dimitri Payet. Later, Louis Van gaal responded saying: "I don't agree with his opinion," although his opinion is surely fact. Who would you put in your shopping list for a creative midfielder?

"I NEVER WANTED TO JOIN MANCHESTER UNITED" - ANGEL DI MARIA

Lies. Manchester United flop, Angel Di Maria recently revealed in a recent interview with Spanish newspaper, Marca: "My intention was always to stay at Madrid," he continued saying, "My move to PSG could have happened before the summer but I didn't for financial reasons and I ended up going to United. In the summer I had the chance to go there again and I could not say no." 

Is that why Manchester United signed the winger for a British record fee of £59.7 million and on a five year contract? Is that a cover up or an excuse for his poor performance at Manchester United, 3 goals in 20 appearances in the Premier League? And neither is he doing well at PSG either with 2 goals in 7 appearances in the French Ligue 1. Maybe after his season at PSG he'll say, my intention was always to stay a United!

There can be many interpretations to this saga but it all goes down to this, Angel Di Maria is a flop, a liar and a disgrace to football! I am sure he's not favoured by Madrid or United fans.

VALDES EXPECTED TO LEAVE IN JANUARY

Victor Valdes's agent Gines Carvajal has revealed that Victor Valdes is expected to leave Manchester United when the transfer window reopens in January. Some may think, including me, that the ex barcelona player has been "Louis Van Harshed!" Victor Valdes only made one (i think) starts for Manchester United where he shined. Until he was very unsettled at his lack of starts for the first 11 and only featuring in academy games. Can you imagine a massive legend like Valdes only playing for the academy team! However he is a difficult player to start when you have David de Gea of course, but it would be a huge loss. In the summer he received an offer to join Valencia, but it seems as if the 33 year old is unlikely to return back to Spain.

THURSDAY CATCH UP NEWS

This is just a catch up on all that has been going on this week.
Reports in France and an important member of the Monaco team actually admitted that another club bidded for the 19 year old and that team was Chelsea! The even bidded more than what Manchester United bought. Yet the little star chose Manchester United. What a good decision! He's a legend in the making! (If Real Madrid or PSG don't bid for him at the age of 21!)
More French news, Patrice Evra has come out to say that he is still annoyed about the way he transferred from Manchester United to the Italian giants, Juventus. Two months after he signed a one year contract he was sold to Juventus. It's sad news but it's nice to see his heart is still with Manchester United although winning the Title and Cup in Italy. 

"I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO PLAY FOR MANCHESTER UNITED" - XAVI

Former Barcelona and Spain captain Xavi admitted that he would have liked to play for a team in the premier league preferably Manchester United over Liverpool. The Spanish four time Champions League winner at Barcelona left the club to join Al Sadd in Qatar which is likely to be his last at the age of 35. He praised Manchester United commenting "United is my favourite historically-speaking." Honestly i don't think he would have even survived the pace of the Premier League!

SIR ALEX FERGUSON REVEALS WHY MANCHESTER UNITED DIDN'T SIGN DAVID SILVA!

Sir Alex Ferguson said that he had considered signing David Silva from Valencia, however he found a major flaw in hs game. A lack of defensive contribution, which is absolutely ridiculous and the biggest mistake the legend could ever have made. David Silva is recognised as one of the most outstanding playmakers in Europe. He's a double league champion at Manchester City, and World Cup and European Championship with Spain. He joined City for £24 million back in 2010, what a bargain! The question is: Juan Mata or David Silva?

MANCHESTER UNITED HANDED TITLE BOOST!

Manchester United have been handed a huge boost after close rivals Manchester City suffer from crucial injuries including David Silva and Sergio Aguero who is out for a month. However, not all the weight has been lifted, Manchester United have tough fixtures ahead including Everton away and Manchester City. Also one of our key players, Bastian Schweinsteiger has suffered from injury which only lasts for 2-3 days, a key player in the midfield. It's going to be interesting how the rest of the season goes through!

TRANSFER NEWS

This week Manchester United, Tottenham and Manchester City sent scouts to observe Bruno Martins Indi at the match between Porto and Chelsea where Chelsea were defeated 2-1 according to "Portuguese publication O Jogo." Martins Indi represented the Dutch national at the World Cup a year ago under the rulership of Louis Van Gaal and is a player that can play as a Centre Back of Defense but preferably plays as a Left Back. Martins Indi could be the best replacement for the injured Luke Shaw. Who would you like to replace the
injured Luke Shaw?
Manchester United are also interested in signing Hakan Calhanoglu according to Tutto Mercato Web. Apparently Manchester United are looking to sign the Bayer Leverkusen ace in january and have also made a bid of £30 million. The 21 year old is a free kick legend.
