bullets13 Posted June 11, 2009 Author Report Posted June 11, 2009 :'( my life is over... well, just think of all the stars they'll bring in with that money
Bon_Mot Posted June 11, 2009 Report Posted June 11, 2009 Good ridance, ya diva! Bring on Frank Ribery!!! I got sick of the drama long ago. When will Real Madrid realize that you can't buy Champions League titles with a bunch of over paid, flashy, offense-only players?

SHS_ATW Posted June 12, 2009 Report Posted June 12, 2009 How much has Real spent so far? $224M? I hope they can win the championship or stuff is gonna go down.
Guest Statesman09 Posted June 12, 2009 Report Posted June 12, 2009 I really just want to see who Sir Alex is going to bring in to take Ronaldo's spot...should be pretty interesting
bullets13 Posted June 12, 2009 Author Report Posted June 12, 2009 I really just want to see who Sir Alex is going to bring in to take Ronaldo's spot...should be pretty interesting maybe the keep tevez, and push him out wide, and let rooney go back to being a pure striker???
Guest Statesman09 Posted June 12, 2009 Report Posted June 12, 2009 Ya that might work but then where is Berbatov gonna go? So what player are they going to get with all the money they are getting for ronaldo???
RonBurgundy68 Posted June 12, 2009 Report Posted June 12, 2009 Ya that might work but then where is Berbatov gonna go? So what player are they going to get with all the money they are getting for ronaldo??? Berbatov is good, but I think he is gunna keep the same role he had this year, coming off the bench... I think Nani is somewhat close to Ronaldo's playing style, so he might get more time... Surely Anderson will too... But who knows who they're gunna bring in...
bullets13 Posted June 12, 2009 Author Report Posted June 12, 2009 they have all of those REALLY young guys who might start seeing some starts.
Bon_Mot Posted June 15, 2009 Report Posted June 15, 2009 ManUtd are now in talks to sign Spanish forward David Villa from Villareal. Villareal are almost bankrupt, so they need to get some cash quickly. The usual suspects - Real Madrid, Barcelona, & Chelsea - are also trying to get him. I think Tevez is as good as gone. I've read that his agent wants him to go to Manchester City so he can stick it to ManU - and they've got tons of cash, but that would still give The Reds 3 world class strikers in Rooney, Berbatov, and Villa (who is a definite upgrade over Tevez IMO). I guess they really think Nani or Anderson will blossom on the wings because I think Rooney is much more comfortable up front. Just look what he's doing for England! And what about Macheda or Danny Welbeck? These guys would be starting at many top-flight clubs throughout Europe, but now they're still going to be fourth and fifth choice. With the defense strong and deep, the embarrassment of riches at forward, and the central midfield nucleus of Fletcher and Carrick, it seems that a winger would be the first order of business.
bullets13 Posted June 15, 2009 Author Report Posted June 15, 2009 it would definitely suck to be the 5th forward for Man U, knowing you'll get about 5 starts a year when someone is hurt and you're playing a weak team in a cup game or something.
dualdellortos Posted June 16, 2009 Report Posted June 16, 2009 They will get Antonio Valencia from Wigan to play the left side for about 16m pounds (I think Ribery from Bayern will cost more than they want to spend) and they will either try to keep Tevez (which will be tough ) or maybe pick-up Benzema from Lyon . I don't know if Valencia will give up David Villa for a fair price if United even want him. :-\
dualdellortos Posted June 17, 2009 Report Posted June 17, 2009 Speaking of Vidor, I just had two kids in my group at A&M from Vidor. They will be freshmen. Shay Singleton and Tyler Mackey.
