  1. I would love that too, more because we'd have a good shot at the league than because it would piss off the mancs
  2. I think he's 22 and he'd be great on our left
  3. Despite being called a master stroke, it has the feeling of desperation to me. Guess utd lost out on their prime striking target Benzima, have little chance of Villa or Pato and hopefully Aguero just doesn't want to go there. So this strikes me as buying time for them to get someone. Maybe ( at the end of the day ) they just don't feel Berbatov is up to it
  4. all those laughing at THAT Owen Brochure aren't laughing now .... hope he wins nowt
  5. If he can play on the left 433
  6. Where's this Hamsik talk coming from ?? Oh and on Owen: 1: He wont stay fit 2: Will require games to get his goal run going 3: Will limit their play 4: Show's they're bereft of ideas 5: Good - would prefer they get him than Aguero, Villa or Pato
  7. Yes Come to think of it though, pay demands by Eto'o and Aguero may prove too much for teams other than Chelsea and City
  8. TBH he's the only high profile target available to Man U: Villa wants Barca, wont leave Spain; Pato will stay put or go to Chelsea, Ribery wants Real Madrid; Silva apparently doesn't want to leave Spain ..... who else can they go for to get goals ? - Hope he prefers Liverpool to Man U. One thing in our advantage is the tax situation is driving players away from the UK at the moment
  9. True, but unless we get uber-riche owners we're never going to be able to compete for "established" stars we'll always be looking for the good, not quite there star who we can give a boost to and turn into a star
  10. The only way we're ever going to compete with Chelsea, Man City etc in the future is to grow our own stars and sign them on long contracts. with the 50% tax we wont be able to pay stars more to come to england, and with the exchange rate we wont be able to afford them. So youth is the only way forward for us ... of course City and Chelsea the C's have more Cash and can buy top players. But I think Rafa will get the youth right, I'm only worried the govt will hamper us even more by denying us work permits for the South American talent we find ... thus placing English Football further behind Spain
  11. There you have it, that's why I think players want to go to City and want to leave the premier league, it's weird players suddenly have wives who don't like it in England and want to go to spain, Mash and Vidic to find just two ... hmm, I can see La Liga becoming a much better league than the premier league
  12. & City are going to sell him to us cheaply ?
  13. My hope for the summer is we keep our first teamers and get the CM to sign extensions, and that Pato, Villa, and Aguero stay where they are - I suspect Eto'o doesn't really want to go to City and will take the extension in the end
  14. That would put eto'o on a bosman next year
  15. TBH I still expect Xabi to stay, we could get 25m for him next season so why lose him this season when he admits he would he happy to stay and has a normal professional relationship with Rafa. Having said that, I think the missteps from last season will haunt us for a long time. The whole Barry thing just resulted in possibly upsetting Xabi, and our not getting Barry.They may even have convinced Barry not to wait around this season so he took the first decent offer that came in. The Keane affair means we'll find it hard to get a good back up striker - Everyone knows they'd only play when either Gerrard or Torres isn't playing and that would put them off coming here. All in all it was a mess that will have repercussions for a while. I still expect for next season at least to have Mash and Xabi, and a lot can happen in a year
  16. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/...t.html?ITO=1490
  17. ESPN is Disney ... right ?
  18. whatever happened to koptalk and IRC liverpool ?
  19. There, now we agree :D
  20. I know its a forum but If we're bidding 24m UKP for Lavezzi, how much are Valencia asking for Silva/Mata ?
  21. How much will he cost ? - I suppose it's another player we'll make well known that will want to move to Barca
  22. The RM machine are masters at sowing uncertainty and destabilizing a player .... Rafa just needs to call Xabi and tell him he wants to keep him
  23. Twaddle, I'm fed up with the press. I've seen a story where Arby says he wouldn't mind playing for RM BUT HE'S HAPPY TO STAY - I'm more inclined to believe that story than this. Arby will get more games with us at RB, LB and 4th choice CH than he would at RM
  24. absolutely, plus I'd still over him and Mash a new contract, a lot can happen in a year and madrid may not be interested a year from now - same goes for Mash and Barca
  25. I don't believe either Xabi or Mash are going. In Xabi's case I think it's either the Real Madrid destabilization machine or lazy journalism
