    fergie doesnt lie to the press simply cos he hates them. there is a lot of propaganda in there too on his part

    Rooney (near his best) is exactly the type of player Pep Guardiola wants. Hardworking, good football brain and good technique along with the strength and EPL intensity Guardiola is on record (after they last knocked Chelsea out of the CL) as saying he thinks Barca need to dominate Europe.

    There is no way United will let him run his contract out, if he's going he will be going at a cut price next summer. £20 -25 mill.

    Do you understand finance Alan?

    I'd hazard a guess by that, that the answer is no.

    Net Profit≠The be-all and end-all of finance...

    We are the best run business in the league.

    Haven't you heard net profit and zero debt > silverware

    Huh?! I'm not too up on finance, but common sense dictates that any business which is making huge losses and seemingly unable to reduce it's debt levels is not 'the best run' in the league. Also my brother, who is very clued in regards to financial matters has looked at your accounts and referred to the situation as dire.

    LOLz Classic Al, that is all

    Wouldn't want him anywhere near the club tbh, for the money United would want for him, I can't see him playing at a top level past 28.

    The Glazers have owned the club since 2005. Those signings were in 2007 and 2008. It's not hard to understand Niallo.

    There was plenty of money floating around then, credit was easy to get, money was flowing, times have changed no one is imune from it, the party can't last forever

    I thought they were all flops up to this season?

    If money guarenteed success the table would look a lot different than it does each season. I believe united have had less new investment than quite a few clubs over this period yet have won 3 title One CL another final and a few others as well.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,492 ✭✭✭Ordinary man


    If anyone would consider torres(michael owen the second:rolleyes:) as a good buy, they must expect united to be a mid table team:rolleyes:

    Barcelona have the same buying power as blackpool these days, so their out

    That only leaves real, city and chelsea who can afford him:mad:

    Utd need serious investment if they want to continue winning leagues, like or not it's the truth, they haven't got the cash that's why I think they are in decline, scholes giggs Neville van set sar all need to be replaced

    Van Der Dar does not need to be replaced yet, Neville has been replaced by O'Shea and Rafael. Scholes needs to be playing week in week out IMO as he is still class. Giggs yes needs to be replaced. United are not nearly as badly off as you make them out to be. We ideally need 2 midfielders and we are ok.
    What you need to do is look at your own club. To avoid relegation you need to buy 2 midfielders, 2 strikers, a centre back, a left back and teach your right back to defend.

    Yes I'm resigned to the fact that we are in trouble and changes need to be made, scholes can't play every week, at the moment your manager is getting the most out of your squad which in my opinion is utds weakest in a long time
