True but Van Persie is capable and likes to play in the hole behind the striker as well. Not a pressing concern but we do need a capable one as backup to Torres.

Goodness knows how many times have 'Chelsea', 'Barcelona', 'Bayern Munich' and 'Champions League' been mentioned in EURO 2012 already. Almost heard like at least once in every game so far.

Yes, while I do agree with you that our squad wasn't good enough to win the Premier League BUT if it weren't for AVB's insistence of playing his high line, open attacking game etc, we would probably have been more consistent in the league and actually be able to finish in the Top 4 at least.

Can't see Schweinsteiger leaving Bayern Munich. He's Bayern through and through.

Wenger could play all 3 at once. Podolski on LW. Giroud upfront with Van Persie playing just behind him.

Everytime something happens relating to Torres, this thread explodes!

1. United sold Ronaldo because he had been making noise of wanting to leave for Madrid. 2. Eto'o was sold because he was already deemed to surplus to requirements by Guardiola at Barcelona. 3. Milan sold Kaka and Shevcheko because they had a bit of financial problems and also because the former had wanted to play for Madrid. 4. Arsenal sold Fabregas because he had been wanting to go back to Barcelona. IF he hadn't been wishing that, do you think Wenger will sell him?! 5. Makelele was sold because he had an disagreement with the club over the wages. My point is UNLESS Ivanovic is dead certain of wanting to leave for Madrid, selling him should be out of the question! Letting him go will just create even more problems for us a RB as we would then need to go for 2 RBs instead of 1 now. Furthermore, him being sold will also create problems at CB as his versatility is important when we have injuries/suspensions like we had in this past season.

Selling Ivanovic shouldn't even be considered in the first place. Big clubs don't sell their best players!

Yes, I do agree with you on the poor league form under RDM but you have to take into consideration that we concentrate mostly on the cup competitions then because of the damage that had been done under AVB. Personally, I blame AVB for the 2 home defeats to Arsenal and Liverpool.

They probably give him a 2-year deal instead of 1 because it will kinda get rid of the notion that he will just be keeping seat warm for Guardiola as that might unsettle the team next season.

Mostly thanks to AVB and some incompetent refereeing decisions along the way.

Even an outsider can see that! Only those Spurs deluded fools will continue to be that.

Any wide player we get linked with these days and people throw them straight into their starting XI ahead of Marin. Poor fella...

Dalglish for Tottenham!

I'll know who to find IF that happens.

Even if it is Sky Sports reporting news these days, should take it with caution a bit because their sources could be from Twitter and we all know what can happen on Twitter with fake news/stories/rumours bring created.

They even mention Mourinho apparently. What a bunch of deluded fools!

So much for Harry going all berserk in the media yesterday about him quitting rumours. And oh, rumours going about that Spurs have contacted AVB for the job.

Wonder if it is worth to raid Tottenham for Kyle Walker now that 'Arry is gone.

It has been mentioned on Sky Sports.

Harry has left Spurs. Thank gawd we have confirmed RDM's appointment!!

You think Giroud would be happy playing second fiddle to Torres?!

Very pleased to hear the permanent appointment news. Kills off any lingering links with Harry Redknapp, Capello etc

True. Seriously though, some of the name that we have been linked with is just silly. And why would Malaga sell one of their better players when they are in the Champions League next season and are bankrolled by a wealthy owner themselves?!

Not exactly a huge difference, is it? Either way, Silva will be the most expensive defender in football after Fergie spent about 30m+ for Ferdinand all those years ago.
