Why would you put UTD in the same bracket as the rest of them? I'd imagine UTD are just as unattractive this year as we were a few years ago when we weren't doing so well, albeit they've a far more attractive manager than Dalglish/Hodgson were.

There not really one year out of the CL is nothing a new manager who is in the World Cup semi final and they can offer huge wages would still be a huge draw for players.

Lets not kid ourselves, they are a massive club. Plus they have the financial means to compete with most others.

I dunno, I just think players look more at the current situation than past achievements. Inter for example would have been a massive club a few years ago but now they can't attract anyone too big.

If Di Maria is available I think you'll see clubs like Utd, Bayern, Chelsea, City, PSG making a move, unfortunately for us. But you never know so put in a big offer and see if others are willing to match it.

I could see them to the other teams but I doubt United would have the same pull as the rest of them.

I'd personally prefer Di Maria than Sanchez or at least consider him on a par, would love to see Liverpool go all out and get him but can't see it happening. Realistically if Real Madrid want rid of him he is going to leave, and there are only so many clubs who could take him. Would probably be more likely to go to someone like Juventus or PSG before us though.

He wouldn't replace the goals directly but you could see him bringing even more out of Sterling, Henderson and all our other pacy players, not to mention becoming Sturridge's favourite person in the world.

I'd eat my hat if we signed him though. He's not getting booted out of Madrid because he's not good enough.

According to Graham Hunter Di Maria is available for €50 million or so, which will allow RM to push for James Rodriguez.

Why not push for Di Maria?

Incidentally Hunter is no big fan of Sanchez. Di maria he reckons is a much better footballer and when asked about Sancehz vs. Pedro, he reckoned Pedro much better also. Which would have been my opinion of the two also prior to being linked to him. No doubt a very good signing for Arsenal but not anywhere near the player some think him to be.

I dunno about much better, but certainly on a par.
I don't know what the actual stats are but my impression is that Sanchez is a better dribbler (which is an aspect of play we've obviously lost with Suarez) but he's slower and a worse finisher.

But I don't think Barca want to sell Pedro (obviously with good reason).

Di Maria would be a great signing. He's proven he has what it takes for Real season after season and they keep on buying players. Don't know why they don't just trust him. He wouldn't replace the goals but he's an absolute assist machine.

He's a bit of a git, but at least he doesn't bite people.

Hunter favours any player that comes through La Masia. Sanchez is a better player than Pedro no doubt about imo.

People say that about almost everyone who writes/commentates/whatever on football. In this instance I agree with him.

Yup, invariably it's his opinion as opposed to reporting facts about what has or is likely to happen. I have a very rational dislike for him.

James Pearce at the Echo seems to think we will go for one more attacker, hopefully it will be someone who can do a job when Sturridge isn't there.

Would far rather someone who would compete with Sturridge when he is there.

Well that would sort LB anyway but we could do with a RB still...

Griezmann, without a doubt.

I have not seen that much of Griezmann but I know more knowledgeable posters regard him highly..

Always liked Shaqiri since his Basle days..

From what I've seen of them I'd prefer Shaqiri.

Iused2likebusts

Gerrard is key to our style of play quick counter attacking to make the most out of our pacey players.There is nobody in the league with his passing ability from deep. The reason we concede so many goals is because the manager promotes positive play and we never sit back and defend a lead like most teams in the league.At old Trafford despite being a couple of goals up Rodgers continued to make positive changes this obviously shows the team he has huge believe in them and I feel the positives outweigh the negatives which is undoubtedly more goals conceded. When the time comes I've no doubt Rodgers will stop playing Gerrard when there is a better option or a need for a better option.I don't see it being this season.

Offer £75m + Aspas for Griezmann. Ten years on from Alonso's arrival from Sociedad, and subsequent Champions League victory. It's destiny, Knex told me so.

Downing was Messi in training

Downing was a menace in training. He kept hiding all the footballs in the bins so no one would make him try to run forward with them. Charlie kept kicking him.
