PSG have stopped negotiations with Real for Di Maria as he is too expensive, but David Luiz is worth £40-50m?
Hope we go in for him, another CB and we could play a 4-3-3

Hope we steer clear. There's no place for him in our starting 11. He'd cost an arm and a leg as well.

If PSG think he is to costly that tells it all and you think we should? don't be crazy he is not worth 50 mil, he is not even first choice for Madrid 25mil-30mil maybe

For that sort of price we could get Radomel Falcao, who could be a beast of a striker in the EPL.

On his day Di Maria is as good as anyone.
He's world class and is 20 times the player of Falcao in my opinion.
He can do everything, run with the ball, score goals, set goals up and he doesn't even mind getting his foot in at times.
If Andy Carroll went for 35 million then Dia Maria is easily worth 60 million.
Class act!

Simmo, you cannot use Carroll as a comparison, Liverpool overpaid by at least £20m. But I agree with you completely about Di Maria. He's a good player.

Di Maria was first choice last season and one of Real's best players .If it was down to Ancelotti he'd be first choice next season but Reals Galactico policy doesn't work that way .
He'd be a serious addition to the squad but unfortunately would probably come with a price tag we wouldn't be prepared to pay

I've said many times Andy Carrol can't be used as a comparison for any other transfer.

Simmo - Andy Carroll was a major flop and Liverpool were ridiculed. If you are going to use examples to try and prove your point, the Carroll one does the opposite, Maybe Ronaldo or possibly Bale could work, but they are far far better than Di Maria imo.

Di Maria around £35-£40m is a good deal for both clubs, but I think RM are trying to get more than that. IMO he isn't worth the money being bandied about. But for £35m-£40m it's a good deal.

£30mil max and £120k wages. Anymore and we are getting robbed.


11.) 07 Aug 2014
Beast - Given how much we paid for Fellaini less than 12 months ago I think £30m for Di Maria would be cheap.

In today's market he's worth £35-£40m easily; unfortunately he just doesn't fit into our formation.

Beast. get over Ronaldo he isn't coming back. Boo Hoo

Di Maria is 20 times the player Falcao is.

Wow, that is some statement. Are you talking about Falcao the world class striker, or that. Bloke from the 80's who sang "Rock me Amadeus"?
