Yes he's jewish.

I smell fear..fear of the media ,fear of failure,fear of the number 50 and fear of Belgium's World cup chances. Not saying we should spend 50 plus million on Cavani or any striker for that matter..tho definitely do think we need a striker and to offload Torres.

Got a bit of a Pet Shop Boys thing going on...Gerbils run for your lives!!!

Would be good to get him and De Rossi.play them together when we want to lock up shop.but otherwise he can be De Rossi's deputy for 3 or 4 years then take over.

well I did say by my fellow old skoolers..he retired in '94.

Mal Donaghy. Will be remembered by my fellow old skoolers.

I hope we get De Rossi and Van Ginkel instead,with the money it would take to get Witsel. De Rossi and Oscar to be the starters and Van Ginkel as depth.

PSV want Bruma apparently and Bruma apparently wants PSV so we could perhaps strike a player plus cash deal with them. Tho due to our relationship with Vitesse getting Van Ginkel appears easier for us. I'd be very happy with either one.both very good young Central Midfielders. Van Ginkel reminds me of Ballack when he plays for Vitesse.the way he drives forward on attacks..if he grows to become even 70% like our old German master I'd be delighted with him. Really miss being able to watch Ballack playing for us...

And to think,around this time last year some on here were arguing with me about us paying too much for him and saying we should wait till he's more proven and others saying we already have Mata and Hazard,why are we signing him...haha we would have to pay out 45+m if we waited till now.

out of all the players that get tagged world class Hulk is the worst I've seen in recent years. I'll support him if we signed him naturally...spend too much following Chelsea all over Europe to be a cunt. We already got the best Brazilian in Oscar tho..

I'm not passionate about Mikel staying or leaving. I feel so alone..

" The magic comes when you least expect" not exactly something I've heard to describe any great centerback that just can't be sold at any price.

It's extremely debatable between him being our best CB ,our worst defender or not even a defender at all but a DM ...like most who have said they would accept the bid including myself the fee of 45m would have a lot to do with it.

But we can't improve till we offload players is Fernando's point.not understanding my point that we can't afford to wait as our target's will be long gone by then.

If Jose tells him he'll never play him again I'm sure he will not pull " a Molouda" when there's his last chance of playing at a World cup at the end of the season.

I hope we accept if it's 45m for him. There's a shortage of great strikers and fullbacks but there's always good CB 's who can defend better than him and enough DM's that we could upgrade at both positions with that money.

Madrid has more than two strikers btw

You DO NOT wait till you have offloaded players is my point for reasons already explained. and all those clubs that you listed are chasing more forwards because they understand you don't wait till you have offloaded players before trying to buy players you want to replace them.

That's not how a big club is run. clubs with less money do it because they often need to raise cash by selling before they buy but big clubs that are going for big targets need to buy them as soon as they can,before their target's are bought by other teams. We'll be able to offload some players later and likely easier once their replacements are brought in...most players have more dignity than Malouda and would rather leave than just claim wages for nothing.

De Rossi and a quality striker would make us the top team in England again and serious contenders for Champions of Europe again. I think we can have him for around 20m.even at his age that would be money well spent!

We should bid for him...just because a player appears to want to go to another club there's countless examples of players joining someone else. I can't see Dortmund playing hardball with the price either as they appear to have accepted he will leave sometime soon,just don't want to sell to their German rivals .

Talk about a totally misleading headline...

I reckon Todd Kane could offer us everything he can already if we want to infuse more English talent into our 25. only Todd can also grow into a better defender and we Don't have to deal with those cunts across the city.

Whoever will take him that needs a Wideman ..as long as it's in one of the major leagues..maybe to a French top flight club with PSG and Monaco being flush at the moment.they could be enticed to part with more than he's worth to us now.if he looks good at another French side.

When you find a solution to it youtube should be your Everest...something about the internet makes warriors out of button pressers.
