Fuck off Woy.

 

[Clegg]

We've got the same thing against Clermont, bit nervous.

Will be very tough away to Clermont.

They went 80 something games in a row unbeaten there across 5 or so years. Lost that record last season, but still tough as nails to beat.

I know, not that confident. Hoping we can channel the spirit from when we hammered them last year.

 

[Clegg]

Ok bear with me here.

Steve Bates of the Sunday People thinks De Gea will go to Real. He says United knows this and want to work this to their advantage. De Gea + £50m for Bale is the story he's lined out.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Moyes was a genius.

 

[D4Danger]

holy shit that Falcao miss lol

took a touch but still

Doesn't surprise me. I think we're keeping silent on it until we can work a deal that'll enable us to save face in some way.

Steve Bates is pretty reliable on United.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Those people behind Wilson taking their phones out..

 

[Wilbur]

De Gea and 50m would be a terrible deal.

Still seems a bit steep to me. He's saying we value DDG at £50m which is then overvaluing Bale by a fair bit.

If we really can't keep Spanish Dave then I'd take a swap deal for Bale as he's a beast in the Premier League. But you know... It's a lorra money.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

That would essentially be Bale for £80m

Van Gaal would make him shit.

Do it.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

De Gea and 50m would be a terrible deal.

Not really, not for a goalkeeper (however good) in the last year of his contract.

RM have no reason not to value Bale more than what he was bought for.

 

[Wilbur]

I don't think we should be handing over one of our best players and such a huge fee.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Ok but what if we hand him over for free a year later? And no Bale to boot.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Krul....

 

[Vivalaraza]

Guys De Gea is leaving and Bale isn't coming.

 

[inky]

Can't wait to see Bale go to United... and play as CB.

At least he'd be better than any of the current ones I guess.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Guys De Gea is leaving and Bale isn't coming.

Sad but true.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Ref bottled that decision.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

[CCS]

If man utd sign bale then he can go at left wing back and Di maria can go to right wing back for an ex Madrid pairing

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Villa have scored 11 goals this season.

Wow.

 

[Vivalaraza]

Id rather we keep De Gea for the extra year. How much are we going to get for him? £30m. That doesn't have a material impact on our club really, just let the contract run out.

Of course that is going to happen, the money matters to the people in charge but that's how I would approach it.

Only other player worth asking Madrid for is Varane but I don't see them going for that eirher.

 

[Linius]

Farid, checked out Belle and Sebastian yet?

 

[noal]

Villa have scored 11 goals this season.

Wow.

Poor Wes...

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Cleverley hasn't had an assist or goal since joining Villa.

Wow.

 

[Linius]

Poor Wes...

They gonna get relegated

 

[Bold One]

Clubs the stature of United really shouldn't be selling their World class players. United are rich enough to rebuff the likes of RM, unless the Pogba and Ronaldo debacle has taught us nothing.

If he wants to go to RM he'll go.

I could see Fergie doing that.

De Gea must be tried of playing with that backline

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Christ Villa had a lot of chances to score here.

 

[FuturusX]

Why would Bale want to go to UTD? Don't see it myself.

 

[Gareth Bale]

Lambert's goal was very nice

Cleverley hasn't had an assist or goal since joining Villa.

Wow.

Sounds about right.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Why would Bale want to go to UTD? Don't see it myself.

I don't see it either.

 

[DBT85]

Good to see the BBC have seen sense and are playing the Burnley v Palace game at top billing.

IIRC its just alphabetical now. Because Stoke and Villa fans were bitching because their games were always last, and someone looked and it was true, and they also had by a margin the least goals in them.

EDIT: Pls don't go David. If he dosnt' get fans and players player of the year I'll be stunned.

It's not about sheer value though. If we were to use him as a bargaining chip to get a good player coming our way rather than just lose him on a free a year later, then I'd take it.

 

[inky]

So he isn't booed when he doesn't pass to Ronaldo.

Spoiler

He isn't leaving.

Yeah but who else would you take that they'd be willing to swap for?

'American Sniper' must be the worst film title in a good while

Actually the agents are in control. We are currently paying Rumbo a quarter of a million per week t

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Varane or Bale. There aren't really any others I'd go for. If they want DDG this summer then we can at least try to make that deal.

I realise though that we're essentially in a weak bargaining position either way.

 

[FuturusX]

250K a week? Really?

 

[Mr Cola]

good lord Falcaos misses

They will make a horrifc youtube vod one day

Its Clint Eastwood. The biggest ''Patriot'' there is,

 

[GQman2121]

'American Sniper' must be the worst film title in a good while

But from a marketing perspective, it's direct and to the point.

Film looks shit though if I'm honest. TV spots have done nothing for me. It's not a new concept and the actual guy the film is based on seems like a huge cunt.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Can't wait to smash Rat Face Jamie Vardy's Leicester in a fortnight.

 

[jts]

Why would Bale want to go to UTD? Don't see it myself.

Same reason as ADM. Even more so, because Bale would be returning to the UK/EPL, where he's not a foreigner.

 

[Heebie Jeebies]

Vardy looks like a real twat.

 

[snoopeasystreet]

It's like the moment Danny Welbeck's body left United, his spirit imbued itself on Falcao.
