LondonLax Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 (edited) The 3 big transfers of the summer are becoming a bit tedious now, methinks that the window should close at the end of July to stop all this arsing around.It feels a little like Man U are being played to me. Barcelona giving them a little false hope and stringing them along all summer over Fabregas, wasting their window. Meanwhile Mourinho is dropping hints about Rooney and putting in the odd bid here and there to disrupt their dressing room and preaseason preparation. Perhaps I'm making up a conspiracy that isn't there but I have the feeling Ferguson would have taken control of the situation by now. Probably by flogging Rooney and buying a replacement striker plus Modric (or doing something equally decisive).

They have missed out on players in the past, and they've sold good players in the past, but on both counts it has usually happened under the radar of the media. They're already missing Fergie IMO.

Voinjama Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 (edited) Oh look Suarez is now injured and will not be traveling with Liverpool to Norway. So thats Suarez, Bale and Rooney all conveniently injured and not traveling with their respective teams, it just so happens all 3 want to leave their current club. Do they think the general public is stupid? Edited August 6, 2013 by Voinjama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonLax Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Ok, new signing RvP knocked him off the top last season. Rooney is a massive asset who still has many years left at the top but they can't seem to convince him to stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob182 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Its only that high because it costs more to get his name. They probably just sold 20 Ox shirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 yeah been a good summer for them, silly money for fernandinho, bought it Fernando, wellington nem, Bernard and ferreyra they might not recoup the £22m they've spent on Bernard but he's a great prospect, the others at the very least should all be going for £20m+ in 2-3 keeping them going don't really agree when people moan about them just being a billionaires play thing like Chelsea, Monaco, anzhi etc shakhtar actually have a decent system of buying and selling south American youngsters for profit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
