    With a bit of luck we can get the guts of 40-50m for Nani, Anderson, Cleverley, Buttner and Welbeck!

    nevermind getting money for them it would free up a lot of wages... but getting extra cash to spend would be nice ;)

    Let me translate:
    I know nothing. There is, however, a huge rumour floating around regarding a player that I didn't break. I am sad and want you to continue listening to me. Take care and God bless. xox.

    I'd like to see Welbeck kept for sure and see how Cleverley gets on as a backup this season under LvG before we think about selling him.

    That Hunter article was a good read, some good insight in regards to contact with Moyes. Just goes to show even at the highest level, some journalists do have an inside track directly, which is mental.

    Could never imagine Fergie getting a text, and texting back.

    I know we haven't been properly linked with him but hes the best young midfielder England have produced in a long long time. He is absolute quality imo and very reminiscent of Rooney at this age. He'd be my dream signing this summer although there's no chance of it happening

    Jack Wilshire is the best young midfielder Enlgand created in a long time and it's not even close. Barkley has had a decent season playing his football behind the striker where we don't need a signing. He has had two serious injuries and would cost a fortune. Money could be better spend then Barkley.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,902 ✭✭✭MagicIRL


    Ross Barkley is not worth the stupid money a club will want for him. let him sit at Everton and think about what he's done.

    In the meantime we can start practicing our Dutch and Spanish

    I was about to disagree and then I realised there isn't anyone else really. England have big problems ahead.

    a) England didnt create anything, Arsenal did.
    b) He is debatably the best young midfielder they have "ever created" in a "long time".

    He has had flashes here and there, and unfortunately for him unless he sorts out his injuries he won't amount to anything bar being on a number of TV programmes that remenise on players that should have been great.

    He's in serious danger of becoming obsolete and not reaching anywhere near his potential.

    He's the United's Anderson is we are being honest here. And I'm not saying that for a laugh. When fit and firing both were extremely talented and effective, but just too many injuries and concerns meaning they were nothing more then a tease.

    Just noticed I just, and seemingly always do, mention Wilshere in the past tense.

    Bit rubbish of me , but subconsiously I'm probably already assuming he will amount to nothing of great note because of his injuries.

    Craig Norwood @CraigNorwood · 14m Waiting for Herrera > England Match.


    :D:D

    Ben Fairthorne ‏@BFairthorne 32s
    Herrera's agent has come and and confirmed the Manchester United deal is "completed." Reported fee £28 million.

    :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,140 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    Somewhat side issue and slightly off topic, but I know there was serious craic and eye rolling over the Toure birthday incident, remember that?

    Well an article just surfaced with Toure quoted as saying his grief with the club was nothing to do with his birthday, that his angst was related to the club rejecting his request to go home to see his dying brother over attending the Abu Dabhi event. He says the club rejected this requiring his attendance as the owners were eager to meet him.

    City are quickly out with a statement saying they received no request.

    Something juicy boiling up accross the way in the blue half :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,209 ✭✭✭KH25


    More transfers like this please. No messing around, just make the deal and report it when done.

    Yeah, lots of quotes from the agent doing the round now. Excite.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,080 ✭✭✭✭Maximus Alexander


    This guy better be good. :pac:

    Make you wonder if maybe Woodward has the eye on the ball, and busting out a few things under the radar.

    Be a pretty deft move if all the attention that was on Kroos and co. was a smoke tactic to get other **** done.

    That's probably too Tom Clancy, but fair play anyway Ed, let's keep them coming!

    Few places saying confirmation might come official after England match. Club cautious not to announce news in untimely fashion like Moyes exit etc. Interpretation making the announcement during England game would be bad form..

    I like that this Herrera deal has been done mostly under the radar, could it be that Woodward is actually learning from his mistakes? shock horror. Still got a way to go to convince most people but it's a good start. Makes you wonder who else we're getting on the QT!

    All going well of course this certainly would make a welcome change. Too often we've seen our much publicised interest in players, dragging on and turning into a saga.

    Kew was right!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,140 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    Another source is saying the club are eagerly awaiting Futureguy to announce we are not singing Herrera, before the club announce the signing

    He's way ahead of you. Why do you think this deal moved so fast?

    We are not signing Ander Herrera.

    Kew is always right!

    Kew was right!

    About what?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,475 ✭✭✭Zico


    £28m for a guy I've never seen and heard nothing about apart from one embarrassing episode last summer. He'd still have to burn down the training centre to be a worse signing than Fellaini.
