ive no issue with the fees for ando and nani. if we sold nani now, we would make a profit on him, he has been a success at the club and is a really good player, nobody can deny that.

ando goes from potential world class to absolutely awful in the space of a week. sadly those world class days get fewer and fewer as the seasons go on. it appears he has mental issues off the pitch and fergie is losing patience.

Wiki says 46 million pounds for Nani & Anderson.

Please, for your own sake and our sanity, don't rely on Wikipedia for anything. I could go on now if I wanted and change that price to 34 million pounds. Then someone comes along and sees it and believes it. Tomorrow it could 50 million pounds.

I remember united releasing the combined figure at the time of £32m and a lt f press were saying nani's buy out clause was £14m.

I think both were decent value for money as united could sell both near that value combined again

Surely we will have to get someone in at LB if hes out on loan then even for cover?

Makes no sense at all.

Although it will be good for him, a season playing regularly in the Premier League (it ****ing better be the EPL!!) and I think he'll come back as first choice LB.

Ferguson is a fool in that regard. Fabio should be starting every game.

Meanwhile, I wrote a new article for my blog, on a player who I reckon you guys should sign, Granit Xhaka. What do you guys think?

I'm very nervous about tomorrows game. Such a big game. If we win tomorrow and win next weekend against Everton we'll be 8pts clear again before City play Wolves which they'll prob win as Wolves are very poor this season. Just have to take it one game at a time. Any win will do tomorrow but winning by a few goals to get up the goal difference would be an extra bonus. COME ON UNITED!!!!!!

I'm not too nervous about tomorrow, reckon we'll win, and I think it'll be easily enough. More than likely not though, but I do think we'll win.

I don't fancy the game against Everton at all. Hate when we play them, a good side defensively and are well able to nick a goal. Hate that fixture.

Fergie is probably going to try to get a season more out of Evra and wants Fabio to get as much experience a he can until that point.

Seen that.
Wonder if this will effect Raf since they do pretty much everything together and if Fabio goes on loan this will be their 1st time apart

But he has contributed almost nothing this season. Why would you want to get anything more out of him?

Very strange move imo. It'll do his development the world of good. But I don't know if I'll be able to handle another season of Evra. If he's anything like he was this season then I'll go grey sooner than expected I think.

Thought that was a brilliant write up, and I've never even heard of the lad. I think you're only a year or 2 younger than me, and you write that is unreal(no offense;)). Without doubt one of best posters around here at the moment. Keep em coming.

He could go higher than that. Maybe Newcastle or somewhere like that, he'd play regularly with almost all sides outside the top 6.

Strange and dissapointing as to how he could go from our first choice right back at the end of last season to where he is now. He definitely can't afford another season on the sidelines at his age.

I really like the layout of your blog, so easy to read. That's one problem I tend to have with most blogs, they do be very difficult to read. Great articles too!

Maybe Sunderland I think they're looking for a Lb with Richardson supposedly leaving at the end of the season and Bridge going back to City I don't think there will be shortage of clubs looking to sign him up .

I tend to agree, from a defensive viewpoint anyway, but it's clear Fergie rates him quite highly. Captain in Vida's absence and one of the first names on the teamsheet.

Maybe Giggs will adapt his game once more and switch to LB for the next 5 years? After that he can go in goal.

That is untrue! I have discovered rare archive footage of an Antonio Valencia assist that came from his left foot.

Shocking footage.

Still looks bad though. I think the phrase ''polished turd'' applies here.
