Clough was a great player.

Did we see an 5 to 10 point improvement when Lloris came into the side?Having a world class GK like Lloris probably earns us 5-10 points a season over a good GK like Vorm. We'll miss him as much as Modric or Bale.

I love lloris but his kicking is atrocious and does put us under pressure at times - if he wants to go then so be it..... I would wish him well as he is above our level right now.
Vorm is a really good keeper and is a fantastic shot stopper. I don't think we'd notice as much as difference as we probably fear if he was first choice..... We have much bigger issues to solve!
One to rival the 'Real getting rid of Bale' rumour:
MANCHESTER UNITED are planning to sell Angel Di Maria to Paris Saint-Germain in the summer to create funds for a sensational move for either Real Madrid's Gareth Bale or Cristiano Ronaldo.

It sounds like Di Maria wanted to go to PSG originally but they had some difficulties sorting out the finances in time and Manchester United were the next best option. From his recent comments it sounds like he would still prefer to be at PSG.
When was the last time a top player at United wanted to leave them for another top club? and I don't mean when they are over the hill or a youngster not getting games, I mean a player at their peak who wanted to leave. Only C.Ronaldo comes to mind. I wonder if they will have to start deal with stuff like this a little more in the near future.
I think it will be more common, United in a league with City/Cheat$ki and without SAF is far less a draw for players.
Not top draw re salaries, and no more guarantees of trophies, but all the pressure of expectations
Irrespective of that you are still leaving one of the biggest clubs in the World in one of the most competetive leagues in the World to play in France..... A country from which all of the best players want to come and play in England.
I think it would say a great deal about Di Maria's mentality if he would rather go and stroll to the title with PSG in France than work hard to try to restore Man Utd to the top of the pile in England.

It's all about the trophies, the cabinet is not going to fill itself if he stays in Manchester.
They are exactly the same comments I remember reading about:
Siggy and vdV
Dembele and Modric
Pav and Berbatov
Zokora and Carrick
When we sell our best players, we downgrade significantly. There's no trade-offs/indirect improvements.

Tottenham move for Croatia hitman Andrej Kramaric but face competition from AC Milan and Inter Milan
Andrej Kramaric, valued at £10m, has scored 27 in 19 games this season
Italian giants AC Milan and Inter are also keen on the Croatia international
Tottenham have been looking at a number of targets including Jay Rodriguez and Saido Berahino
Tottenham have made an enquiry for Croatia international striker Andrej Kramaric.
The 23-year-old plays for HNK Rijeka and has been valued at £10million after a startling season which has seen him score 27 goals in 19 games for club and country so far.
AC Milan and Inter are both keen on Kramaric but believed he could be prised out for £4million as part of a get-out clause.
However, the deadline for that clause has passed and any suitors will have to spend double that to sign him.
Tottenham have been looking for strikers with Southampton’s Jay Rodriguez and Saido Berahino of West Brom among those admired while Maurico Pochettino also saw Sandro Ramirez score for Barcelona B last weekend.
Kramaric though is tipped to follow in the footsteps of former Croatia striker Davor Suker with his scoring exploits and has attracted attention from Napoli and Monaco also.

Him and/or Mitrovic would be a good replacement for Ade and/or Soldado.
I think.
its definitely nowhere near 10. and its almost certainly under 5 too.
we finish on around 70points normally. to say hes worth almost 15% of that is ridiculous. if he was even worth 5 more points (expectation) than vorm (or a replacement), we should definitely not even consider bids under £50m for him. fwiw, if you have a serious debate with someone who works in football statistics, im pretty sure they will tell you even gareth bale wasnt worth 10 more points a season for us.
