Something about erectile disfunction on the bottom left anyway.

If they get the players to England early enough and they train at the club for 3 years between the ages of 15-21, they are homegrown. Rafael is homegrown because of this. They are tapping in to the academies there.

That's football manager philosophy right there!!!:pac::pac::pac:

Well considering the fact rumours have it the Glazers want a Galacticos policy to bump up the value of the club in future, this fits the bill. Hardly the most outrageous headline. Utd also bid 90/100 million pounds but Spurs wouldn't sell when he was sold to Madrid. And considering he has proved he is world class (where at Spurs he has one good season) I could see basis to that.

I don't think they explicitly came out and said that. I think that's more the media pushing a story.
Maybe if we had a solid defense. The attack is fine.

Just need cbs a rb and a midfielder/right sided midfielder. Dosent make sense to **** out 150 million on bale when we lack so much in other places.
It's an easy story to print and that's about the extent of it

But. It has been getting a lot of coverage recently and a 'Ronnie' coming home story would have been more romantic but they have ran that story into the ground.

150 is far far too much, unless they plan on spending another 100 million to fix the defense

Ronaldo is clearly happy in Madrid.

Bale is Welsh and would happily play for Utd imo. 150 euro is what in pounds. And seeing as Utd have the option to buy Falcao they could well strike a deal to let Madrid have Falcao.

Also there's growing talk of Reus going to Madrid.

What?? It's 153 euro? That's 196 gbp. Fx rate from yesterday is .78
Ok maybe they made a mistake? Maybe they meant pounds. That's 120 million euro if the 150 is pound

Bale is also clearly happy. Ronaldo loves utd, more than bale. He kinda spent a few years here.

There is no chance bale will be coming for over 100 million. No chance.

Ah ffs. I divided the .78 rather than multiplied. Yeah. 119.34.

What's worse is, I should know how to work that out, since I'll be getting paid to do it later. It's too early and my coffee hasn't hit the system.

He doesn't love Utd any more than he does Madrid. He's the main man at the biggest club in the world winning trophies and breaking records left, right and centre. He's from Portugal, so same climate and similar language to Spain. Also Madrid won't sell Ronaldo. He's worth too much to them.

Bale would have grown up watching Utd, Ronaldo probably didn't.

The Moldy Gowl

Portuguese and Spanish are completely different. They also hate eachother.

Grew up watching them. Jaysus. Are you trying to say bale will be coming to utd? You read too many click bait articles if what players think and who they grew up watching. They both grew up watching the same teams I did. The Italian teams in the 90s, Madrid, utd.

Because he won't be, there is more chance of 'ronnie' coming home, of which there is none.

Although Portuguese and Spanish are closely related, to the point of having a considerable degree of mutual intelligibility, there are also important differences between them..

Yes, they're completely different. And saying they hate each other is like saying the Irish hate the English yet there's plenty of Irish over in England.

Angel Di Maria finishes second in La Liga's assists chart for 2014 (despite leaving Real Madrid for Manchester United this summer) Not bad

15 - Lionel Messi (Barcelona)
14 - Angel Di Maria (Real Madrid)
13 - Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid)

Michael Owen has said on BT that Liverpool should go for Pogba to replace Gerard,I thought they were nearly broke after King Kenny & Brendan pissing away over £300 million between them.
We are reticent to spending upwards of £70 million on bringing him back to United,I doubt Liverpool are in any position to match that fee.

I had the temerity to express the opinion that Leon Britton has been the best DM in the PL over the last few years, and so, better than Michael Carrick. That caused some posters to flip their lids.

I think people just took him up wrong and thought he said that Britton has been brilliant his whole career.

But he has been fairly solid for a few seasons. Wouldn't want him at utd though.

You're right in that Liverpool wouldn't spend that fee on one player but I also couldn't see Pogba joining a club that's had one (disastrous) season in the CL over the last 5 years and look very likely to miss out again next year.

If Pogba leaves Juve he'll have a host of top clubs to choose from.

Not many would take that position. You've got to admit that opinion is a fairly contrary one. And that you yourself have savaged people for having out there, unorthodox opinions in the past.

I think people just took the opportunity for a bit of comeuppance.

OK folks...

Lets move along now

Nothing to see here on the whole "Leon" subject other than its a might fine film...

Which stars none of our five a side team ...

Cantona's Collars

"Manchester are one step away from Kevin Strootman," Materazzi told Rai Sport.

"The British club will pay €40m (£32m) into the coffers of the Giallorossi."

So Strootman's agent seems keen on him moving in January.

I've "savaged" people who argue their opinion in dishonest ways (like moving the goal posts, building straw men, etc) or people who are straight up trolls. It's got nothing to do with whether their opinion is unorthodox or not. In fact , in my experience, most of the posters who use these methods of arguing tend to express commonly held opinions.

I agree that leads to a lot of these people itching for retribution.
