    El Confidential reporting Reus to Madrid for 25m in the summer. Ah we'll take Bale off your hands so lads.

    Would tie in nicely with the reus to Madrid and bale to united part of my prediction.

    If that's true I wouldn't be surprised to see United go for Bale.Real pay 25m for Reus and Bale joins United for around a 100m.Real would be laughing their bollix off.

    Some laugh if we spent 100m on Bale and still played 352

    Not really, he'd fit in perfectly as a LWB...

    Just for the craic and nothing else lads;

    Bale or Ronaldo, if we could grab one this Summer at the latest, who would you go for?

    For me, heart says Ronaldo, head says Bale.

    Firstly he'd get injured then LVG would play him in centre midfield.

    Free Palestine 🇵🇸

    On de Gea, he's not going to nice anywhere for move money than United offer.

    Only a few places in the world could afford him even if he wanted to leave

    Chelsea have Courtois and Cech
    Man city - well, doubt de Gea would move there

    Real Madrid - probably don't need a keeper, plus being an ex-Athltico man might put him off

    Barca - transfer ban for 2015

    Bayern - they have Neuer

    Maybe PSG ?

    So basically I think he will sign da ting

    If Real wants Reus in and Bale is then surplus to requirements, Utd shouldn't offer so much money if Real want rid of him.

    Eh... Di Maria deal?

    If we want Bale it's a new record fee.

    Ronaldo, his physiqie suggests he could have a good few years yet, though he mentioned 35 as the age he might quit but then said he might feel different then.
    5 years of Ronaldo would be heaven.

    Watching the Real Madrid/Atletico game, would be great if Woodward went and signed Godin in the summer.

    He's gotten his head on the end of everything tonight, quality quality defender. Can't believe Sideshow Bob Luiz got into the World 11 ahead of him! Disgrace!

    Good saves make De Gea anywhere move contract will nice?

    Very true, Luiz probably got in for the world cup and his spectacular goal, which was not a reason he should have been on the list.

    Watching Godin and one can see how poor United's defenders are. I would pay David Luiz money for him.

    Rio agrees:

    Godin is quality but on the flip side 25-30m for a defender about to turn 29? I would go for it anyway


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,731 ✭✭✭Schwiiing


    What bid would Atletico let Koke go for? 40m?

    A lot less I would imagine, 32 m aguero and 32m costa so I reckon around the same

    Should have picked up Greizman last summer as well.

    Both were their release clauses and Aguero was £38m, so their hand was forced somewhat.

    Koke's release clause is £50m, he only signed a new deal at the end of last season.

    Agree with that. I think he would thrive at United. A double bid for Greizmann and Godin would go down well.

    Good defender but I always question the attitude of players who turn their noses up at big clubs in Europe and go to Russia for the money


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,825 ✭✭✭Mikeyt086


    We're being linked with Pablo Dybala a lot lately.

    Willy-tingling excitement if that comes off. Potential superstar.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,917 ✭✭✭Whatsisname


    Couldn't see either being moved on but interesting enough
    Paddy McNair and Tyler Blackett have been free to talk to other clubs since January 1st and have still not been offered extensions. [bbc]


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,134 ✭✭✭✭Rayne Wooney


    Can we just buy Atletico Madrid?

    Not a bad price by modern standards. He's 23 and would hardly struggle with the language barrier given the number of Spanish speaking players at Old Trafford.

    No he wouldn't. Don't see why he'd move to United though or anywhere else for that matter. United were one of the clubs who triggered his old €24m release clause last season and he signed a new contract in response. He's an Athletico fan and they are competing at the highest level at minute. I'd think you'd have a better chance with Pogba.

    Not sure if it was posted but this might be the away jersey next season. I hope it is, it looks brilliant
