Hard to see Fergie paying higher than that for Hazard. He is after all only 21 y/o.

Ha! So much for trying to be positive. Difficult to imagine a player asking/demanding to play in a certain position during negotiation. Won't be believe all those stories till I see it happens on the pitch. If Hazard wants to play in that CAM, then he has to prove himself there. Won't be fair at all if he just comes in like that and takes Mata's place.

Hulk has been making noise but Porto are still playing hardball over the transfer.

Expected that. Don't see the reason of ditching Eddie after the part he played in our success last season and the fact that he was brought in by RDM himself as well.

Doubt Cabaye would cost anything more than 20m.

Have seen him play many times for West Brom before. A good creative player. Only question though would be, is he a Top 4 quality player? Not too sure about that TBH.

As said before, don't think many of us would mind him here IF you can help us to negotiate with Porto. I'm sure they will be hike up his price after his performances in EURO 2012.

Wouldn't take that seriously TBH. Probably was lost in translation.

Too bad Pereira has gone to Valencia.

:lol: So true! Least he recognized that, unlike a certain Frenchman... United offered better wages than us?! Surely not!

You can go do us all favor by helping to negotiate with Porto a decent price for Moutinho.

Too bad he plays for Porto...

Saw this... The original tweet...

Why is he so desperate to go to Spurs anyway?

He could soon regret that decision, just like Modric.

Sorry for going off topic a bit but what on earth did Welbeck do in Euros to get an 8/10?!! Even AOC got a 6/10!

But they did just fine under previous managers with the 4-3-3. Problem with AVB's 4-3-3 is that he wanted to play an open expansive attacking football, adopting a high defensive line and press all over the pitch. As long as we avoid playing that again, we will be fine. Just go back to the slightly more conservative Mourinho/Hiddink/Ancelotti's 4-3-3 if you like if we are to use it.

Somebody needs to ring up Hazard or even 'Agent Cole'.

Have been seeing people saying we should sell this player, that player and talking it like it is so easy to get rid of them. Curious to know how many out there have actually drawn up a list of the players that we have and analyze them carefully to see what they can give to the team. Finding a buyer for them would be tough and finding replacements for them would be even tougher!

8m is still a decent fee to get in return. Better half a loaf than no bread. Also, we should get in replacements first IF we are thinking of letting go Essien and/or Meireles.

Can we really expect more than 8m for him? I mean we only got him for like 12-13m and while his form and performances were good for us last season, don't think Meireles is worth anywhere near 15m.

Don't think so. Have yet to see a genuine link with Cabaye. Only saw a news or two linking him with United recently.

No. We were already linked with Hazard from the start along with City and United. He only really considered us after we won the CL because we'll be playing in it next season.

Jose would be pissed IF Drogba joins Barcelona.

Think we can close this thread now. http://soccernet.esp...cc=4716 EDIT: Bah. Late by seconds!
