Happy Face 29 Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 What excellent news to wake upto and hats off to the peeps behind the scenes doing all this. I know people will tot up the 35 mill, but I wonder if there's been a plan in place to avoid fees leaving more cash for better wages. Ie allowing us to get more better calibre players. Regardless seems like good news. Is he any good? The last sentence coming after the first encapsulates you perfectly. Let's hope so though my fellow poster that's not watched a French game in his life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless seems like good news. Is he any good? Oh this obsession with spending lots of money. What is more impressive; an ant carrying a match stick, or a person carrying a book? We should aim to perform well in comparison with our outlay, whatever that may be. This attitude will free you from the vile demands to spend money. Football supporting wasn't invented so that we could encourage people to spend money - it was invented so that we could encourage people to play good football. Frankly, does Rooney play for Man U? Rooney plays for 150,000 a week, and that fact will put a black cloud on anything he does for Man United. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toonpack 9936 Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 (edited) Douglas: (on twatter) Just to clear it up: #NUFC gave him a thorough medical. No concerns whatsoever on groin! Failure to agree terms w/ #lfc, basically or as put quite well on RTG 5 mil for a French international + a player scouted by Chelsea and Man Utd last season and in advanced talks with Liverpool + a highly rated striker who scored 7 goals in 12 games last season. People would have been over the moon around here if they signed for us, but if they gone to the scum, then they are all "shit" or "plague with injuries" and "we dodged another bullet". You only need to slightly amend the last sentence to reflect some opinions that'll be prevalent on here. Edited June 18, 2011 by Toonpack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2bias 3 Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 Happy with this and another free. I think people are too obsessed with the 35million war chest. I have full faith in Carr and I think we still have more to come. Wonder if that will end the N'zogbia interest now?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talking shite. I never said money wasn't important. I'm sure Rooney is happy with his riches, he has worked hard to be a top footballer.

You and Deano are fucking obsessed with coming up with starting XI's. Why? You play nearly 50 games a season, you only get that far with a good squad, aswell as a good XI.

Irrelevant Nick KP 0 Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 No, he's going for the money. But he's not tried to hold us to ransom, like Rooney did with Man United - and the knowledge that he did that will for ever taint anything he does for Man United.

OTF 7485 Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 The quick decisive moves in the market are good for once. Hopefully they will continue and we'll be able to have a solid pre-season with our new players having a chance to play together. At least they'll all be able to understand each other. If Jona's is still here it's lucky he talks the international language of hand gestures. I enjoy the early optimism when new players are signed, let hope they can deliver on that once the season is underway. You can't knock the incoming business that the club has made thus far, but as I've said elsewhere I hope we're going for our targets as well as looking for opportunistic signings.

All I know is that he hasn't tried to hold us to ransom. Man United are no different from Man City or Chelsea, after they caved in to Rooney's demands. (nothing against Rooney, he's a businessman).
