Im thinking
Veron flop
Blanc meh
Di maria flipping flip flop
Sweinsteiger flipping german towel theif flopper
Im thinking ronaldo to madrid success
Ronaldo to madrid success
Have we ever brought an established European superstar and they've been successful?

Off the top of my head I can think of Ruud van Nistelrooy, Stam.

Not established but that’s never been what we are about, we have a history of buying top British and foreign talent and making them better. RvN was class in Holland and we took him up a level, Ronaldo case in point, Vidic, Evra, Rooney another one from our shores, Rio, buying established players has not worked out, this galactico style needs to end as it’s been a failure, why go away from what’s been our forte successfully for decades, silly when you think we have.

Good point. Players with hunger and a point to prove are what's badly needed. Overpriced, overpaid superstars are not working out we should steer clear.

WE MAKE STARS WE don't BUY STARS.

{Ed025's Note - 20 years ago maybe mate, now you buy players who will sell the most shirts...and paying fortunes into the bargain..
