shappy totally agree. Based on signing the four positions you suggest, which i think we need, your looking at an eighty million spend over two windows. I doubt we'll do it. Most likely be the chap from celtic, the kid from everton, kagawa or other and either a random forward we haven't considered or a young player like the pea. Rincewind

Considering how much you paid for Ferdinand, do you feel he has justified his price tag?

He's been good, but has he been that good over the past 9 years?!

at last ten minutes of "me" time, life is so hectic sometimes. lol. Right i said earlier on jred's post that i was tinking something similar so here's my take on it.

We need proberley two midfielders a left back and possibly a striker/forward player in the next two windows. Now we need to realsie cost is a big issue especially with FFP rules coming into force. Now left back looks like it will be Izaguirre who would cost some where between 8-12m, then Barkley looks like one of the other players being signed now syd can try and kid us that he'll be 15m but when we trid to sign him in the summer we were told a flat no. It's also obvious that both Chelsea and Man City will be kean to try and sign him to so i would say 15m would be the starting point and it could go as high as 30m although unlikely, i'd imagin it'd be around 20m with 5m in add ons or something like that. So if we say 20m as a compromise and 10m for Izaguirre then thats 30m just for those two. This is why i doubt we'll sign Goetze even though i'd love to sign him but it'll end up being a bidding war and we just won't enter one. Goetze will go for between 20-35m depending on who gets involved. And to be honest i wouldn't be too gutted, my opinion is that IF we were to sign Goetze then we'd simply be a strpping stone and at some point we'd hear the line "it's my dream to play for Madrid/Barca/Inter/AC Milan/Bayern ect" then we'd have got him and developed him and his best years will be with someone else just like Ronaldo. I think were best investing in the best british talent as most of them don't have a longing to play in spain or italy and if we are to invest in foreign talent then it has to be at the cheaper end of the market as we won't get the same kind of longivity with them. Put it this way if we signed both Barkley and Goetze and on the day they signed you were asked to bet £1000 of your own money on which one will still be with the club in 10 years who would your money be on? for me it'd be Barkley everytime. So for this reason i feel Goetze will be out of reach and i think we should look else where, i wouldn't give up on him and would still inquire about him but i'd definatly have a plan b as i doubt we'll get plan a.

Also i have a slight point as to the type of player we would sign, how many true attacking midfielders has Sir Alex signed? i can remember a lot of wingers and forward players and i can remember the midfielders but i can think of any who are out and out attacking midfielders.
We just don't play that way, we have players who can attack and defend and do the work required of them in midfield. Thats why Sneijder stood out as an odd potential signing for me over the summer.

Oh and Syd i think your starting to get an unnatural infatuation with Goetze, i've seen these symptoms before, first you stalked Rodwell then it was Sanchez and now you've turned your attentions to Goetze. Just a thought none of your infatuations have signed lets hope you don't make it 3 outta 3. lol

Sydney thinks he is apart of 7-8 top european clubs and he also thinks he is Mario Goetze's best mate or something because i think Sydney is more clearer on his Future then the player himself by ruling out any clubs except Madrid & Man utd after he was asked if he was flattered to be linked with these clubs......Wise up Sydney this is football according to you Man united were to sign Rodwell over 6 months ago face it Madrid want the player and when it comes to United and Madrid there is always only 1 winner etc Benzema Ozil Sahin Varane

Are Fabio and Rafael made of glass? It seems to me that if one of them starts a game they rarely finish it due to injury. And it seems it takes only one little knock for them to have to come off.

EUROPE
do you utd supporters not think ,its not as good as it used to be years ago , especially the early rounds of the complation, its just not on the same level it was years back ,where everyone seemed to be more in tune.
i for one dont think its a fair set-up any more , the standard seems to have gone, and do you not think that certain countrys seem to get shall we say all the luck and special treatment, there seems to be something very odd and strange that goes on and everyone seems to not really favour us brits,i mean some of the atrocious decisions we have seen over the years makes you think that they , the establishment never want us to win it again ever.
well what do you lot really think, do you think that we will ever see us winning the eurovision again, also do you think utd will go far in the c.l. this season, oh and bring back a certain mr t. wagon thats what i say anyway................lfc

Mario Goetze is mentioned on this site everyday but what do you think the chances are of us getting him.
if dortmund where to make him available every top team would be intrested.
Madrid have allready come out and said they would be interested , I no people will say they dont need him but that won't bother them they will do what they always do move some players out and buy the next superstar.

Munich president gave an interview in the summer as well saying he thought a deal could be done and that they will def bid when he becomes available and they have the money to buy him.

i wont even mention barce psg inter city etc

if these two are intrested dortmund can name there price pastore went for 36 so the price will be some were between 35 40 mill.
and dont forget if dortmund can name there price so can his agent so the wages wont be cheap either.

now i know it's good to dream but if it came down to us madrid and bayern i couldn't see him coming to united

{Ed007's Note - And you have shown how much of a complete juvenile person you are posting as both a Utd and LFC fan.}

This happens all over the LFC banter pages as it does here. Check how many anonymous NEGATIVE posts there are on other teams pages - it's irritating for all fans. we all like a bit of banter but the anonymous slaters are ruining this site. Is there no way to register posters? Or give them a permanent team emblem next to their name? I love this site and but free speech and opinion is meaningless if it's hidden behind anonynymity (damn, I wish I could spell that).

cozinoz {Ed001's Note - no, there is a reason we allow people anonymity mate, it means they are able to reveal things they couldn't do on a site where they have to register.}
