Looks like Di Maria has been sold. Interesting few weeks ahead of us as our net spend now seems very little and should still have a considerable budget for additional signings if they are available.

As I said on the banter page, I think we should keep our hands in our pocket and let the next class take hold of the prem.

What a showing tonight and I always get more excited about the youth coming through than a new signing.

Save the money for Ramos! And Kane next summer if he continues on from last season.

I think all the lads out there tonight could play the majority of our games next season and not only not look out of place, they could make a real impact. Let's put faith in them it will only let them grow more as players

But if they fail to live up to expectations in the premier league who get's the bullet from fans and the press? The manager. And if the worst would happen(not getting a top 4 finish) people would start asking questions about why we didn't sign a striker or a Di Maria replacement.

If Pedro comes in he will take the season to get use to the brutality of the Prem.
we have enough to get us through, we risk losing top talent again if we keep buying.

Pogba.

You can't judge players on a pre-season friendly. Our defence struggled first half, and that was without Messi on the pitch. Judging our second XI versus Barcelona's second XI is meaningless - it's your best team that wins you things.

We still clearly need a centre-back and if ADM goes we'll be short wide up front. I'd also worry about cover for Rooney. There's work to be done yet.

I don't know many defences that wouldn't struggle against suarez. Especially as we were playing jones and blind at cb who won't be our first choice partnership.

RedAndy - I agree on one level, but they weren't even close. And, at the moment, at worst, they're the first change choices behind Smalling and Rojo. And I don't rate Rojo as anything more than a back-up, to be honest - I don't think he'd have improved the performance.

And, if we want to compete at the top table, we have to do much, much better against the likes of Suarez.

Ed always says don't get into the money as we don't understand finances. But I read somewhere that we break even if we sell ADM for £48m. Something to do with the add ons and the money we have upfront etc. If someone has good knowledge then maybe they can clarify.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Jul 2015 21:56:54
Not sure about the add on etc, but because he has asked to leave he won't get his 15mil bonus that was in his contract if he so out his contract or we sold him and he hadn't asked to leave. So i quess they would look at that.

Agree0 Disagree0

ADM was signed for 60m (roughly 57.7m?) over 5 year contract. Played for a season so 4 seasons remaining. 60m/5season = 12m a season. 12m x 4 remaining seasons = 48m.

Don't see why everyone gets so obsessed with the money though.

Monkeyballs by your logic we should have sold Ronaldo for £2m.

Agree2 Disagree1

26 Jul 2015 10:09:44
sailor, that wasnt my valuation of ADM, I was just explaining to you how this value of 48m had come about and how it was apparently supposed to mean we break even. But you somehow twist this into me saying Ronaldo is worth 2m.

I see why Ed002 buggered off and doesn't do MONEY matters. sigh.

Agree3 Disagree5

26 Jul 2015 11:42:33
Sailor, £48m isn't a valuation, it is the point where we break even if he is sold this summer. After his season we aren't going to make money on him are we? Ronaldo was on another planet to Di Maria, we weren't just hoping to break even.

Agree2 Disagree0

26 Jul 2015 12:21:30
Monkey, I understood your point , my comment was just meant to be a joke. Sorry about that. Media writes anything.
What I wanted to know is if anyone had idea about how much did ADM actually cost. Do we have to pay Real 58m even if we sell him? I'm assuming there would be some add ons etc in that money.

I think Ramos is going to be our player soon, just a feeling I have, even though I know its not likely.
Pedro I believe will happen, not my first choice (good player though).
A friend of mine keeps banging on about Bakkali, do we OR have we shown interest in Bakkali Ed.

Believable4 Unbelievable1

{Ed004's Note - didn't he just sign somewhere else? Valencia?}

25 Jul 2015 12:51:22
It does appear that Perez is trying to humiliate him. It could certainly backfire!!! Imagine that, captain of Spain, captain of Germany, Captain of England. We'd just need to sign Lloris for the French captain!!
Then we would have leadership/Experience in huuuuge amounts!!!
