wiggyrichard Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 It is tricky to be fair. At Man City i think the competition for places is too fierce. Saying that at Chelsea there isnt really ant stability ie. going through managers like its going out of fashion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiggyrichard Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 there is a simple reason why they don't win the Champions League. They are not good enough. :winkold: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maradona10 Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 No problems Wiggy, no it was just all the hype around Chelsea in the press, that this is their year to win it, they have the special manager in the Champions League and the players.

VillaAlex Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 I'd say Chelsea myself, as others have said he's more likely to get a game as there is a place on the wide right to be filled. Based on hearsay it seems a City more is more likely though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoccerHQ Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Chelsea will win the league with ease next season if they sign Sanchez and Augero. Both are brilliant players who'd fit into the prem with ease imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Alexis Sanchez will be going to either Chelsea or City that's for sure. Which would you choose? bright lights of london IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Manchester United have just signed Atletico Madrid and Spain U21 goalkeeper David De Gea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted May 24, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted May 24, 2011 Shock horror at that one. If he settles thats their keeper sorted potentially for the next decade (if not longer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 so no money utd buy a £17m gk and are probably favourites for £15m young... getting £60m for the league and no doubt the same even if they lose the CL must be shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted May 24, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted May 24, 2011 Manchester United's thing now is to only spend big money on younger talent, ones that either represent a good return for large investment in terms of potential resale or just longevity in the side - de Gea is both. (It's also for this reason I'm not completely sure they'll go for Young unless he goes for a lot less than we might hope. They may be loaded with obscene debt but they still have the power to spend incredible money. They're just rather more aware now of how they spend it.

SemperFi Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 The money manyoo get from the champions league final would probably buy the unwashed a whole new squad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bose Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 I haven't seen a whole lot of de Gea but wow paying that much for a 20 year old keeper is a huge gamble no matter how good he is. I would have thought they would have gone for someone with a bit more experience, I mean keepers tend to need experience more so than other players. He's only played a season and a half as a regular starter for Atlético and so moving to United as a first choice keeper is a huge step and then the pressure from moving for such a huge amount is gonna kick in. Then of course he has to fill the shoes of Mr VDS! Really looking forward seeing how he'll get on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well worth the money, the only issues will be his english and how he settles but he has time on his side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 apparently he speaks good English but he has been poor last few games i saw him for Atleti though doesnt help with shit defenders like ujfalusi around him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qwpzxjor1 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Van Der Saar will continue for one more season, whick gives De Gea a chance to settle in. SAF will play De Gea in cup games and slowly phase him in as number 1 over the course of the season. I remember when everyone was raving about them signing Lindegaard though, and how he was going to be the successor for VDS. Obviously he's not proved himself in training. 17m surely shows intent for De Gea to be number 1 keeper fairly soon though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFi Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Van Der Saar is retiring, said his goodbyes on sunday so id say thats unlikely, unless you know something we dont? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
