    He is not being linked with anybody else and is not considered in the upper echelons by Bayern. (According to article quoted on here a few times)From a business perspective I think if we pay more than 30 we have paid more than we needed too. In a footballing perspective pay whatever required to make it happen

    Thought he was also linked with liverpool....

    Kroos is going into the last year of his contract. Bayern aren't going to want to let him walk away for nothing.

    I laughed when I read £20 million for Kroos, would be a great bargain.
    There are only three teams he could move to that hold prestige and on a par with Bayern Munich in terms of what is expected. The two Spanish giants and United.
    It does seem Kroos only wants united since united are the only team strongly linked with him, if I was a high class midfielder I would see no competition at united meaning lots of game time.
    Van Gaal would also be attractive for the player.

    The journalist behind the Kroos story, Chris Wheeler, is on Talksport now. He sounds very certain that this is a done deal.

    He says the deal was sealed even when Moyes was here. He thinks it will be announced before the World Cup.

    30 million.....20 million to Bayern and 10 million to Bangkok as his agent and friend.

    Did say it a few months ago. Had heard that agreements were made. Kroos and Shaw were two of them.

    I still don't believe the third name that was mentioned.

    If it's "sealed" then why not just announce it?

    it took them long enough to announce Van Gaal

    delighted for Bebe and also, delighted in the sense that a player who looked like he was leaving us for £1million until he got injured, will now fetch us most of the money we paid for him.

    14 goals in the portuguese premier league is savage going and surely we will get €5million+ for him at least now to one of the bigger Portuguese clubs.

    imagine if he went to porto or benfica and he joined the long list of players who developed into super stars and signed for Madrid or Barca:eek::eek:

    Things I've learned in here since yesterday.

    1. Yaya wants some birthday cake.
    2. Someone is very upset at getting busted googling LvG's balls.

    The gospel according to :rolleyes:

    Going on media reports alone. When the summer has ended, I'll expect us to have signed 40 - 50 players and spent about 1.2/1.5 billion.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,726 ✭✭✭Rubber_Soul


    MEN also running with fee agreed at £20m. Probably just rehashing the Mail story though.

    The only poster more fun than the 'Draw a footballer thread'

    Have a pop in there and draw LvG's great veiny ballsack, rumour has it you've got it on speed dial.


    If anyone hasn't read it, serious comic gold on page one. Will I Amnt take a bow son.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,843 ✭✭✭GSPfan


    Honestly if 20 million is the fee we pay i will be in shock.

    I smell a Hargreaves scenario here. Quick check his knees.

    I'm partial to your abracadabra

    Actually announcing the signing of Shaw and Kroos in the next few weeks would probably boost our chances of signing other players that might still be deciding. If we build it, they will come.

    Imagine Kroos did sign. Seems ridiculous to imagine.

    On that note...
    I like Van Persie.

    I like Kroos.

    So Fiorentia decided not to sign Anderson on a permanent deal. Can't imagine why.

    Man his press conferences are going to be gold.

    I just heard on TV3 (first for breaking football news) that United have bid £37m/€20m for Kroos and it was agreed in principle.

    Anything from the BBC on it?

    I assume you mean €40m?

    Yup! It was just a fleeting statement on the news so I'm not sure if it's just tabloid nonsense a la Daily Fail or more solid.

    this summer I won't be taken in by the speculation. gonna wait until I see a player holding the United shirt for the press before believing. last summer taught me a valuable lesson.

    transfer speculation can drive a man demented :)

    If Utd sign Kroos, il be happier than the day we signed Mata.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,751 ✭✭✭newballsplease


    Was very surprised to see Scholes working for Paddypower today after the mocking they gave the club through Moyes's time.

    Combo of Adnan, Mata, Kroos & Kagawa is simply mouth watering. However until I see him signing a contract with Mr Ed I am not going to entertain it.
