Re: The Ali Dia Football/Soccer Thread

Louis van Gaal, what the hell are you on? Well, besides signing Schneiderlin and Schweinsteiger, your transfer window had been an absolute mess. You got rid of Angel di Maria, because he was unhappy and you didn't know how to properly bring him into the side. He leaves for a decent fee of £44.3m, so...

Liverpool sign Roberto Firmino for £29m. He's a good player, but that's £29m less to sign a striker that we know will score goals for you. I'm not the most confident in Ings yet. Perhaps Lacazette in a Liverpool shirt is happening, but then you have to say, "What? A good striker? Liverpool? You...
