Why we aint buy him?
Yeah if you score or do anything with him.

Same. He plays for Brazil because he plays for Bayern.
He's still in Palermo afaik.

Is he even on United's radar? Our scouts are having a blinder.
Maybe it was just rumors. Anyway, do you think Gattuso is going to get them promoted this year?
lol
Lui is better than Lucas nowadays. Solid player, would walk into United's side with ease.
Great buy for Arsenal.
Just what I was thinking. What is going on?

At what point did I say Lucas was better than him?
If Lucas carries on playing like he did against Celtic, we'll need a replacement.
At what point did I imply you did?
Good one, gotta give ya that :lol
At what point did he imply that you implied that he wasn't?
You lost me.

At top form:
Lucas=Sandro>Gustavo
Current form, assuming Sandro gets back to his best:
Sandro>Gustavo>Lucas
On second thought, he probably would start for Brazil regardless. None of the DMs are great atm. I expect Sandro to nail that place down before the end of the season

Linius, I like you, I like your avatar. Remind me who you support again so I can like you even more.
You're strongly rumoured to be after Fellaini.
No need.
i don't think that's an unreasonable price considering his situation.
besides, they sold off gomez, who was a very prolific goalscorer for them, for a relatively low price as well.

Isn't he a traditional CM?
Gattuso won everything as a player and I hope he'll be able to succeed as a coach as well. But Zamparini is an unpredictable old fuck, it's really hard for me to say.
Just messing don't worry

If John Cross can be trusted (big if), then good signing. I am in Arsenal are only 2-3 great signings away from competing for top 3 camp, so I guess 1 down.
He can play as a CM, but he was originally a DM.

You play it too? I support Ajax btw. Irrelevant club to most of us in here. Except for City fans of course. They can't beat us.

Mates. I've always liked the Ajax philosophy. You've brought though as many players as any club and with the right mentality. You should be proud of your club.
Tbf I think Fellaini is our main DM target. Moyes knows him well from his time at Everton and is obviously very aware of his strengths and weaknesses. But he'd cost a fair bit more than Gustavo.
I've been a bit critical of United's scouts for a while now. Some have done wonderful jobs, especially Jim Lawlor, who scouted the Da Silva's and Hernandez. But then there was the Martin Ferguson/Isco fiasco. And our aversion to signing a cm has crossed the line to the realms of farce.

Wonder how Spurs will fit him, Sandro and Dembele in then, if none of them are naturally AMs. Maybe they'll let both Dembele and Paulinho push forward at will

Hmm. 4th.
Of course I am, we have a big history too. We're one of the few clubs with a CL badge for example. But in modern day football we can't do much in Europe sadly. We have to watch the rich clubs buying our players. If Eriksen leaves this transfer window he'll be leaving at the age of 21

Blackburn manager Gary Bowyer said:
Would you count that as expectation-lowering straight from page 7 of Roy Hodgson's Guide To Managing A Club Outside Of Your Comfort Zone?

Why that is how I tend fuck, yes.
This is such a bad quote from Cavani. Not only should the greasy haired money grabbing twat keep his nose out of our business and concentrate on playing in the 5th best league in Europe, but he should also know that Juventus could never of afforded Suarez last year.
''Not that's what I call loyalty'' pffft these cunts dont even know the meaning of the word.

It's really a shame that Ajax can no longer compete as well as Dutch clubs in general. The
Netherlands have given world football some of the greatest players of all time.

He's better than Lucas man.
Yeah, financially we can't compete anymore. We just can't keep a decent squad together for a longer period of time. If we're lucky we might keep together all the important players from last season, that would be pretty damn unique for us

Lets be honest this is our level, we are a small town that flew about their perch due to a massive fan who also happened to be a brilliant business man. The walker years were amazing and gave me some of the best memories of my life but we have to accept what we are now.
The gut wrenching thing is we had no reason to descend back to this level just yet it was all the work of some clueless Indians and some agents in it for their own gain.
I like Gary but I don't like the kind of interview that tries to make out we came close to a good draw at home
Plus Gary Bowyers daughter is fiiiiiine (I just hope she isn't under 18)
Fuck, that's another £8.5m spent.Maybe DC, but Capoue was at WHL today, must be pretty much done.
Adding that into the pot, you've spent £51.5m so far this summer.... where does your club get the money.
He's their twitter background, they can't possibly fire him now
That's kinda dirty, Jeff.
We can certainly 'afford' it but we would never do it.

Wealthy backers.
Love you too DC <3
I'm not too sure, I suppose that with the extra TV money, and maybe from our new Sponsorship we can swing it. That said, it'd also be the first season we've actually spent money after sales, so maybe we have a bit of money hidden away.
I've heard their wealthy owner mentioned before, but my understanding was the Joe Lewis took a pretty hands off approach.
Aye, I suppose the TV money/sponsorship could be a big factor in your spending. It's just so strange to watch.
