Berbatov
- Thread starter GusHiddink
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.

No idea.
Well, CH was wrong about Berbatov joining you in January and wrong about Spurs signing Anton Ferdinand (as if we ever would) a few weeks ago. In both cases the Spurs ITKs were right, just as they've been right about Dos Santos, Gomes, Bent, Kaboul and many other transfers, and just as I expect them to be right about Bentley.
Transfers are a complicated business and nothing can be 100% correctly predicted. We shall see what happens.
There are several people with a proven and largely consistent track-record. We're not talking here about some random collection of Spurs fans making wild guesses based on media speculation.@ ITK Spurs fans.
Anyone could have cobbled together all that bollox from buying the Sunday World over the last fortnight. And they quite probably have.
But don't let that stop you from displaying as much scepticism as you wish.
I'd guess then that you'd be happy for R. Madrid to do the same with Ronaldo.
no chance of the deal happening today. That is certain.
That's the same line the papers have preaching the last couple of days. So your ITK reads the papers does he?
Time will tell old boy

CANTONA!
Like real are trying to with ronaldo?? yeah great idea
he can hand in the transfer request but that will mean feck all since saf said no...whilst ramos is willing to sell.
Its a done deal glasto. Keeping berbatov at this stage would actually be detrimental because his attitude would slump even lower. Its the worst game of poker being played out. Everyone knows how this will pan out, just getting the best deal.
Wish i could fast forward a couple of weeks. Anyone who thinks a 28milion pound deal will break down over 1 or 2 million needs their head tested.
Heigh ho Tonto, being the loan arranger isn't going to get you a big pile of silver.
I just hope that this isn't going to rumble on for the whole summer.
If we want him we should just pay the fecking money or just move onto other targets.
I really don't want us starting next season with only Rooney and Tevez as recognised strikers.

Aye, cause last season was a disaster.
It could have been had Tevez and Rooney both got injured at the same time.
Do you want to take that chance this year?
It may well have been without Ronaldos 42 goals.
Just because we got away with it dont make it right
and quite obviously ferguson sees that
Eh?
'all it took was a youtube video' what are you on about?
I'm slowly coming round tho the idea simply because it seems inevitable that the transfer will happen, and I may as well be pleased about it. I'm forcing my self to be happy if you like. Still £28 million is a joke.
Hehehe, I love how GS trying to make United is the one who's going to come out worse in this whole deal.
We'll get our man, hopefully he'll force his club's hand by slapping a transfer request
Eh, you can hear him choking back the tears.
I knew that would get a response!It's fairly bleeding obvious we could do with a more resilient alternative to Saha. And that's assuming we hold onto Ronaldo.
If Berbatov is that new striker then I, for one, will be fecking delighted
Looks like the deal is off. Time to search for another target.
Wait and see mate.
Care to elaborate?
What you have to consider is, we didnt just 'cope' last season. We were fantastically successful.
It doesnt really matter who we bring in. Even if we signed someone for £7 million it'd be helping us out big time with striker depth.

Its not off. Seems like Spurs are dragging their feet for more money and more time to get a replacement in.
Eggzackerly. And that's without considering the not inconsiderable talents of wee Frazier Cambell and massive Manucho Concalves.
I hope we do that for once. We always bet bullied to pay over the odds. For once we should actually put a take it or leave it offer.
Just a hunch. Spurs are digging in their heels and United will not pay so much for a 27-yr old.
To be fair even if one of Tevez or Rooney had gotten injured for last stretch of the season, we could have missed out on both of the trophies. And we overworked our front three anyway. I won't be totally against not buying anyone and just throwing in Manucho and Campbell. But given that we don't need to strengthen any other area in our team, spending the cash on a proven striker makes sense.
Most of the time United pay over the odds I believe is out of goodwill, maintain a harmonious relationship and image.
We'll still end up signing him. SAF wants him, The player wants to join us and Spurs will sell to raise cash for other targets.
What could be holding it all up is Liverscums interest in Keane. Spurs won't (Quite rightly) sell there two best strikers until adequate top quality replacements are found.
Perhaps you're right. But I sure United have plan B if plan A fails.
If Rio had gotten injured we probably would have missed out on both the trophies.
If Ronaldo had gotten injured we probably would have missed out on both the trophies.
If VDS had gotten injured we probably would have missed out on both the trophies.
and so.
We do need another striker because Saha is unreliable but we didn't just cope or strike lucky last season.
Liverscums, I knew it was them, even when it was the Bears.
When was the last time WE walked away from a major mega million pound deal over price?? Think about it carefully.
Once we identify someone we want its because we've identified how they will fit into the side...you dont suddenly switch from spending 28mil on one player to another because we dont want to pay 2 or 3 million more.
A deal will be reached. Put your mortgages on it...and your children.

We don't even know if united have made a bid FFS
Liverscum is such a tacky, plastic name.
