Muzchap

Think we all get it Price Tag <> success. In fact I guess there is an argument that the > price tag, the > risk of failure... Because once the money is spent the player has to deliver and will be scrutinised harshly, just look at Hazard - he's under pressure every game - really don't think we have done a good job of integrating our new players... It's the sink or swim methodology and at the minute, treading water is what we are getting... Found some amazing players on FMH cheap - think we should snap them up Will post them tomorrow - on other iPad

^^^ This, our team used to be beasty but skilful - JM really had a great balance... Just wonder if he could do it again And would they bring back tha advert of him with the umbrella?

Your optimism is rubbing off on me Gonna go sign him on FMH quickly and see what he's like

I'd definitely swap nuts! Tits are so much more fun than asses

Sound post - agree on the Studge+Wellbeck never being first choice - think Wellbeck loses the ball a bit too much. 12 million is a good price - but think the OP was saying we're now having to chuck an extra 33 million at it, instead of being able to 'test' it out - just spend money, without putting in the hours? Well that's my take on it anyway?

Lol how did a Sturridge thread end up as Mikel / Ramires debate ROFL Back to Studge! Pllllease don't go... (What was that song by the same name) remember it when I was around 14-15.. James?

Yup, but why did we sign an out of form Torres? Because he 'was' a Star... Same old Shit or Bust mentality Why can't we just get another Eidur + Jimmy - they were so awesome together - always remember Eidurs goal against Utd, little dink in mid air over the keeper and Jimmys rifled in shots with no backlit (big ass and no knee bend)... Even Flo would be awesome!

Lol little harsh but those DVDs are ALWAYS worth watching Hmm no work tomorrow might have to watch them from 2003 onwards

That's my point above - he wasn't a 'Star' so wasn't considered... Bah... I'd have him just so we start playing as a Team again - 50 million is cheap for that... Just feel Torres is dragging whole team down...

Ok, let me first say 100% agree! But, there's always a but - we can't compare CFC to Arsenal Wenger has a structure and playing style built up over a number of years and knows what roughly fits into his team, he also makes mistakes lmao (Gervinho) but as you said they ain't 50 million gambles. He invests little and often to shape a team, we go Vegas style Shit or Bust - normally Bust I just don't think with the manager merry-go-round we have the stability to buy 3-4 cheap players, wean them in and offload what doesn't work, we will always buy the latest Star... I mean look at how Marin has been treated along with Studge - poor lad deserves a run of games!!!

Not gonna call you crazy, quite a few people share this view... Just a waste and like Hutcho says, think him and Suarez could partner up well, both fast, tricky players and with Sterling not a bad attacking trio... #sigh

Yup praying to the footballing Gods Still would love Biscuits at the Bridge

To be fair though in 25?+ years - you're going to make mistakes and its not all Fergie, there's a whole network of coaches, assistants etc providing input... Similar to when I worked at Codies - we had the chance to sign some great games, but they got turned down, someone else snapped them up and made millions. Like I said hard to predict Potential Anyway off-topic now

Cleverly is a decent player IMHO and is getting better and better season by season. Anderson - can you really blame Fergie? If Anderson was unhappy about it, surely he would leave or at least ask for a transfer? Don't know much about Pogba - but will say Italian league and EPL very different, more time on the ball in Serie A... Some players need that extra time to be good - some don't - maybe that's what Fergie and his assistants saw in training day in day out? Can't polish every turd into gold Hope we can with some strikers in Jan tho!

I have little knowledge of Portugese league so will shut up To be fair though Hazards videos from French league and EPL are a little different, EPL is a much tougher league a lot less time on the ball and much worse weather I mean remember Veron!!! He was awesome in Italian league and sucked so bad in EPL - he actually reminds me of Torres a lot!!!

Hmm maybe a difference in footballing opinion I don't want my Striker tracking back I want him on the half-way line keeping 2 defenders occupied and stopping back passes... Mata is not a striker, he should track back!!! Hmm lots of strikers fail to score relatively easy chances? Torres, RvP for United etc - surely you have to agree that a good player gets himself in a place to score before missing? Some players need a run of games to get match sharp, I think Danny is like that. He does create opportunities though... And as you said can score some blinding goals. Rumours spread like crazy - if there have been no hard facts it's just rumour - probably started by Torres when he realised he might have competition for his place. Well looks like this a moot point as every 'rumour' lol suggests he's off - I hope he isn't - Falcao showing him the ropes would be awesome...

Hmm Anderson is ok had injuries and weight problems? Nani was never as good as Ronaldo and I think tried to copy CR7 a little too much... Buying 'potential' is always a gamble, both players would get in any decent teams squad and be used regularly - so not a complete loss.

Well I'd have all of Utds Strikers Wellbeck is a little clumsy though and not well co-ordinated, but maybe that's youth and he'll get better with age. Right now both in form (hypothetical) I still think Studge has the beating of him... Would love that little shit Hernandez though - ultimate Solksjaer mk2.... How does SAF pick them? Never complain, and hit the back of the net at will... Amazing signings... We're due a bit of that

Show me one game where he is lazy? His finishing isn't great compared to who? Hazard, Moses, Torres? Apparently... You know apparently is just a rumour/speculation right - again show me proof? Fact is anybody 'bashing' Studge cannot come up with hard facts to support their theories.. This guy has the potential to be a great striker for us, yet we're prepared to flog him to a rival... Well lets see what Brendan can do with him...

Selling Sturridge to an EPL team is BAD BUSINESS. He is a good player and as he showed at Bolton, not renowned for their intricate build up play, he can deliver when questioned. Under AVB he was probably our best and most consistent player. He is 10 times the player that Wellbeck is and yet Wellbeck starts for United. If Studge had SAF managing him, he would be immense. All of you happy that he's going - you might regret it come next season. 12 million is a bargain... Sell Studge for 12 million to buy Bony? Sounds sensible!!!! Back to FM then... Next we will be linked to Babacar!!!

Gladly with fucking mugs like you and your batty boys like Zolayes and the other clique cunts!!! Support this? This ain't even fucking Chelsea - you don't even know what Chelsea is

Fuck it - TV off Better things to do with my life than watch this bunch of overpaid cunts run around with no fucking heart, desire or clue!!! Fucking worst game I have ever seen! Absolute fucking joke, no wages for a month !!!!
