I just know how this is going to end, so I'm going to pretend I never looked in this thread. I'm getting an image in my head...a small child...Jewish by the look of him.....it's winter time.....his nose pressed up against the glass......it's too painful to think about it any more

Do you see a brick lying by his feet?

Let me guess. He should be seeking for value.
 
:) C'mon dev. If you're so sure of our value approach, lets make it mildly interesting.

I can't bet against something that I believe is going to happen can I? However Im afraid that 20m in football today is hardly a big sum of money. We'll need at least 40m to sort CM out. To say it all I can't see Berba remaining at United + I wont be surprised if Park and/or Ando leave.
 
I'm sure we will too. £20m doesn't buy you an established top player these days though.

20m as you say doesn't buy the top players. It's scary that it only buy potential. Lot of money if it doesn't come to fruition. Sometimes if you really want someone you have to bite the bullet and pay top dollar.

Only 6 players in history to have fetched 40 mill or more

I'm sure we will too. £20m doesn't buy you an established top player these days though.

Silva was 24 mill wasn't it? I said 20 mill +.

Sometimes you have to accept SAF sees things a bit different than us. He thought Anderson would pay off. And still might.
 
"I watched him last year about three times and I have watched him a couple of times this year.

"I wouldn't want to be saying he is the best player in the world because Man City or Chelsea might then decide they have to have him.

"United and one or two others are in for him but I think Daniel is ready to compete with them.

"If you want to be a top-four team you have got to do that. You have got to push on. The chairman is ambitious, we all are."

Harry Redknapp talking again

He said £20m+ which incidentally is the amount for which Silva(25) and Yaya Toure(24) was signed.

'United have already spoken to Hazards people, signs are very positive. Other clubs involved obviously but we appear very confident'

I know this guy was correct about West Ham signing Morrison and thought this was worth posting.

Wasn't that the guy who was pretty confident about sneijder coming? After last summer, I pretty much don't believe any of these so called "itk's" anymore.

Did he predict the signing before West Ham were linked in the media, or afterwards? If he was the first to say 'Morrison will go to West Ham', then.....

Days before West Ham had even been mentioned by anyone, he said that West Ham have been in contact. He obviously knows someone involved with the club as nobody had even mentioned West Ham at the time.

In fact, he even made a bet with Morrisons mate that Morrison would be leaving.
 
Just a question in general: Are we allowed to announce a signing way before the transfer window opens? Can we wrap up a transfer way in advance, only for the player to move during the actual window?

has any club done this? the ones everyone knew about was ronnie and fabregas. Real madrids president actually announced 'Madrid have signed the worlds best player' but then said he was talking about kaka, who signed for them days or weeks later.
 
Ugh this thread's already turning into a clusterfeck of comments about how ITK Twatter ITK's are who are talking shite about "representatives meeting".

It's going to be a long summer. Again.

Hernandez for us for this type of deal.

Let's get our new players in before the end of June so we can all feck off and have a nice stress-free holiday.

Of course - this is fairly common. We have done it many times - Hernandez, da Silvas etc

But the player is not allowed to change clubs before the next transfer window! So we can sign a player today with a contract starting june 1st - but of course then it's a binding agreement regardless of what happens with the player up until june 1st.

That might be the most incomprehensible half sentence I've ever read on the Cafe.

Can we actually sign someone with their name on a contract? I always thought it was just informal agreements.
