United fail again

I mean what kind of fan would not want Duff on their team? This left Duff go to Chealsea although he admitted that he would rather go to Man Utd. As for Ronaldinho, United could have got him before the Confederation Cup for £15 million but their hesitation left him go to Barcalona. United should now buy somebody like Aimar, Totti, or Pavel Nedved to add a bit of class to the side!

Don't mean to sound like I'm giving out, because I know you're only expressing your opinion, but you should give the other threads a read before you post a new one!!

I only say this because these points were covered in other threads .... Gandalf is already annoyed with the amount of threads about United stating the same things!!

Its obvious he is not a United supporter as all he does is bitch about them.

Thats not what supporters do.

Perhaps he would prefer the eighties with Edwards in charge and the odd cup win every five years. If he can remeber that far back.

Im a United supprter also but you will never hear me bitch about them the way you are. IMO Kenyon is doing a good job and if money-grabbers like Ronaldinho want to join an average team not in the CL instead of one of the best in Europe then thats his loss not Uniteds.

So you are saying that you wouldn't like Ronaldinho playing for United?

Ronaldinho actually stated that we wished to join United.

If had wanted to sign for United he would have told PSG he was not interested in joining Barca so they would have had to ignore their offer. A club can not force a player to sign for another club against his wishes.

For him to then sign for Barca shows what his ambitions are. Money money money.

They will not win la liga, have an outside chance of the uefa cup and might not qualify for CL again next season.

Thats ambition for you. And United can do without his kind. Give me Ole or Nicky Butt any day.

Ronaldinho wasn't in a position to force PSG into accepting a deflated bid from Man Utd - Unlike Kewell, he had four years remaining on his contract. PSG had already accepted the offer worth €30M (£21M) from Real, which meant he would stay with PSG for the coming season, and because of his problems with the manager he wasn't guaranteed to play throughout the season if he remained at PSG.

If Man Utd were serious about signing him they would have paid the £15M first day. Why refuse to pay £15M and then submit two higher offers weeks later when a bid worth £21M had already been accepted for the player?

Im not so sure Aimar has what it takes to play in the premiership week in week out and as for Totti, i seriously dont think he'd leave Roma for less than 35 - 40 million and it just not worth the risk these days.

If it were up to me then i think they should go for someone like del Peiro - just to play right behind van Nistlerooy

And as for Ronaldinho, the guy was asking for a private helicopter for jayneys sake!!! He also is a member of most of the strip clubs in Paris, so a mediocre clud like Barca can have him if ye ask me

:rolleyes:
The muppetry/ err faniscm (similar to racism ) is getting out of control again. Was fine for a while with no one lumping all supporters into one group but this is 3rd post like this iv'e seen in two days.

OT:
Dont know who ManU should buy at this stage or if they'd get anyone. The season starts in a few weeks then it will be no more transfers till the window so if they get someone they better hurry up
