This. We need to get him off the wage bill.
But they won't accept a loan
Rumours are Madrid will to reduce the burden of his wages somewhat.
Done.
Macheda comes free with that deal too. Enjoy!!
You know, that might work. He earns something close to 10m isn't he?
Yeah he's on something absurd like £250k a week at Madrid.
Sorry but if we have to take him the fee ends up with you paying us.

It looks terrible with that DHL logo.
And the crest.
Sooo mean... Lol
It's a business.. That's just how it is. Wouldn't be surprised if NFL starts also taking in sponsors.
JK. xD

Sponsorship, how does it work?
Basketball is closer.
Tell that to the horde of angry fans pissed at the renaming of our ground :lol
I personally don't give a toss about the name.
True, but like in the NFL and I guess basketball, most stadiums are named after brands.

Well to be fair that is a bit much, putting a name on a shirt etc is fine. Renaming the fucking stadium after over 100 years of history for a check? Not cool man.
I know most clubs get more money from their sponsors than shirt sales but I think it's ludicrous they want people to pay ~£50 to walk around with a massive courier service/bank/oil company 'initiative'/chupa chups logo splashed on your gut.
Yup, it's actually embarassing to have a stadium in the team name nowadays because that means you can't drum up enough investment interest with your team(applies to American sports here).
Helllooooo Marlins Stadium.
Lol for us here in Chicago, Soldier Field!!!! God, the Bears suck... *_*
I'll actually be taking my first trip to Chicago in October to go see an NCAA game at Soldier Field lol. Looking forward to it actually.

Santi Cazorla already telling Wenger he needs to spend? Oh no... Wenger doesn't like it when players tell him that although Cazorla's right. We've got Sahin coming in and hopefully we can get one more.

At least he cares. That is a good sign.
What would you translate this as?
"but obviously its important to replace players like that because they were so important for the team"

That rumor is ridiculous.
It would make no sense for Fergie to not want a loan deal for Sahin, but willing to take a loan deal for Kaka.
Would you trade in United shirt sponsor if it meant the same amount of money to rename Old Trafford to the Aon Stadium?
Not at all, rather have it on the shirt that changes every year than the Stadium/museum that is Old Trafford.
As I said it applies to American Sports. Yankee Stadium is the only one off the top of my head in American sports thats named after the team, but thats clearly because they don't need to money from a stadium rename having their own TV network and what not.

Damn...
Really not sure. I think I'd say no cos the shirt is sponsored by Nike already really and is kind of a readily accepted thing in football and a line we have already crossed.
But man, I would love it if we didn't have a shirt sponsor.
Yup, ridiculous to no end and it doesn't make sense. There were reports Fergie rejected Sahin since they only wanted loan with no buy-option, but this is the same except with a 30 year old!!
There's so many other players that Fergie could go after.

I would sell Copenhagens stadium name to Liquorice Dip Arena if we could get money for a proper defensive midfielder.
buying RVP made no sense either, but that didn't stop Fergie! This rumor is just ridiculous enough for me to believe it.
edit: And I'd definitely sell the naming rights to Ashburton Grove if it meant winning a troph— oh wait.
:lol physically laughed at that.
I don't care about sponsors at all.
But when Saints got their new one they turned down offers of a lot more money from shady far east bookmakers to go with a local company, so thats quite cool.
Edit: Of course we did have to put up with The Friends Provident St Mary's Stadium for a few years.

There's still a difference though. Kaka barely made a dent last season for RM, while RVP practically saved Arsenal's behind and led them to third.
I don't remember Kaka leading any goal or assist charts last season unlike RVP.
Lol obviously they'd design them differently if they had no sponsors; i.e. Intl Kits:
