The Big Week. Kroosing and Matas with Stoke City.

The signing of Juan Mata from Chelsea has turned out to be a boon for the Reds as he assisted one goal and had a passing percentage of 85% against Cardiff. But,even though he started the fixture along with Van Persie this was far from a vintage display that Man Utd were known for. The problem of lack of world class central midfielders has been a problem. With Michael Carrick out for a month it looks quite difficult for the gaffer to field players in that position.
Man Utd have been linked with Ilkay Gundogan and Tony Kroos for the past few days. Yesterday things became in favour of Man Utd as Kroos was clearly dissapointed after being subbed off in Bayern Munich's 2-1 win at Sttutgart. With just 18 months remaining in his contract he was given a contract extension yesterday which he rejected. This is a good sign for a team like United who want midfielders in their squad for a top 4 finish. Many reporters closed sources have said that Kroos wants to play for a team like United. No wonder David Moyes was present to watch him play at Mönchengladbach. Lets hope we have good news at the end of the transfer deadline date. Even Guardiola didin't rule out a possibility of him moving to Man Utd , he was quoted as saying "He is an important player but things can move fast in football. Here today, gone tomorrow."
United play Stoke at The Britannia Stadium on Saturday and going by this seasons record united should win the game. They won against them in the first half of the season and also in the capital one cup.
Red devils should we get Kroos or not?? Air your views..
