Re: Football Season 2015/2016
Theres 5 new players in the team, its not going to click straight away. You can see each of the new players have the quality but they need time to gel as a team which will take longer than 3 games. I'm happy with the start so long as they kick on from here which they will have to with the run of fixtures coming up.
I agree about Rooney, he's used to playing in a deeper role and keeps going looking for the ball and trying to get involved leaving no striker. I still think hes best playing off someone so he can do that.

City look really good, Silva is brilliant when hes in this form and being played in his best position.

Re: Football Season 2015/2016
Regarding the five new players, the keeper is only a stop gap, Darmien and Schneiderlin have slotted in seamlessly and look very good. Memphis Depay had one good game, but that was in Europe, you don't get the same time on the ball in the crash bang wallop of the Premiership. I would have put Ashley Young on , not Valencia and probably taken Memphis off. He is still only young but has a lot to learn. Schweinsteiger looked very good at the start, surprisingly quick over the ground but that only lasted 30 minutes, I expected Carrick to come on at half time. A speedy, skilful, strong forward like Costa, Suarez or Aguero is what is needed. We have Fellaini for the desperation Route One approach.
The most surprising thing to me is that I spelt Scheinderlin and Schweinsteiger correctly without checking first .

Never believe things until it happens and then one won't be disappointed.

Re: Football Season 2015/2016
Heres one for you...

United have offered 190M euros for Neymar which is his release clause at Barca. Apparently that newspaper is like the BBC in Brazil and is legit...

Yes that's what they are usually angling for.
