I was so happy when United signed Shinji last summer. The way he has been used (or lack of use) has baffled me.

Mata would be great, no doubt, and I think he's better than Shinji...but it's not a position of freaking need.

And if you elect to go with two strikers up top, then what are you going to run in the midfield?

Don't get me wrong, Mata and even someone like Cavani would make United more dangerous, but why are we spending money there?

It's like the Dante rumor. Great defender, extremely good on the ball for his position...but he's 30. How much does he have left in the tank? Are you telling me United can't go out and get an elite center back who is younger?

I agree, Mata doesnt make sense when you have Kagawa and even Rooney who can play in the hole...

The Koke rumors made sense... Cabaye would even make more sense..

It's similar to Rodgers going after Salah for us, when we have glaring needs in defense... frustrating!
