Re: Unrealistic summer transfer wankfest III

He's had no time to do any proper scouting. All he can do is bid for well known players or bid for the players he knows (from Everton). If we're not willing to overpay for world-class players, we're going to overpay for Everton players.

Re: Other Teams' Stuff

Chelsea conceded less goals than us last season. City have had the best defence in the league for years, or at least since Vidic has been injured. Fergie gone too.

Re: Other Teams' Stuff

City's first XI and squad is very strong. Only weaknesses are CB depth and Hart. They've given their attack more variety and quality and managed to get Barry out of the starting XI. Their biggest problem last season was finishing, which, given the chances they created, was more or less bad luck. Eve...

Where are they then, or was it just to shift season tickets
Does this actually work? Can't imagine someone reading some rumour in a paper and then deciding to pay £800 for a season ticket.

Re: Unrealistic summer transfer wankfest III

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2395174/Manchester-United-want-Willian-offered-Mesut-Ozil.html I know we probably won't get Fabregas or Ozil, but I like that we're still chasing big names. Getting Fellaini right now would be like the summer we spent chasing Sneijder and got Ashley ...

Re: Unrealistic summer transfer wankfest III

Berbatov was only at United for 4 years and the last year he barely played. Cost £30m. By the sounds of it, Moyes takes a lot of time scouting his players. He won't have had time to scout any players of United quality so he's just been going after proven, established players so far. Probably not com...

Re: Unrealistic summer transfer wankfest III

Fellani's better than Cleverley, surely (he's at least very different). He'd also improve our threat from corners, which is already the best in the league. He's obviously not an alternative to Fabregas but his passing is much better than some seem to think. If we want a goal scoring mid does it matt...
