Popular Post! The only place to be 11,313 Posted April 4, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted April 4, 2014 We generally seem to have about £50 million (net) available per season to spend on players. Now if you factor in the sales of Luiz and Lukaku (say about £40 million in FFP terms) plus Mikel, Ba and a couple of others I think we could easily hit £100 million.Throw in the wage savings of Cole, Torres (hopefully), Eto'o and a couple of others and we certainly have money to spend which is why Costa AND Mandzukic doesn't seem too unlikely.

Costa and mandzukic would cost about 50-60M and spend the rest on a world class CM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAB 1,030 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I don't like Mandzukic. I think Jose wouldn't fancy him either. That's typical press BS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,188 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 It's just going to go into overdrive now with speculation after Jose's words the other night.We will be linked to every forward in world football and go as far as Peppa Pig no doubt. mediator and Muzchap 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eligius 121 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Mind you, I never said that a CM, fullback and a striker weren't needed before an AM. What I understand is that no one is able to create anything except for Hazard. And I know Reus will be able to do the same. It's not a "system buy" like a CM, its simply adding quality, which we're currently lacking, no need to understand the way our team plays..Reus is a left winger... the same position that Hazard plays.

yuvala 2,167 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Reus is a left winger... the same position that Hazard plays. I was just giving an example. But they can also change places all the time, Hazard is great at the middle and Reus I think can also operate in different positions.But again, it was just an example for the quality we need.

LAM09 7,069 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Doumbia is a decent player but would not be first choice I think.He is better than what we currently have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloodIsBlue 291 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Why will we have to but the likes of City, PSG or Monaco won't?! Or United can reportedly spend over £100m in the summer having spent £70m this season?!Selling off the deadwood in our squad, and also possibly likes of lukaku and Luiz will raise significant funds and drastically slash our wage bill. Complete load of bollocks!United is a serious business, they make profits so if they wanted to they could easily spend 100m and still be well with FFP. Glazer however has investors to satisfy (Arsenal are in the same boat as they can spend huge without breaking FFP) but City, PSG and Monaco are more like us but I'm sure we make more money than any of those 3.

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Not happy with the rumours for Mandzukic or Lavezzi...sure we can do better... LAB, xPetrCechx and BloodIsBlue 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Reus is a left winger... the same position that Hazard plays. Dont forget Bale was left winger too, but he converted himself in RW pretty well. Think Reus is intelligent and skillful enough to turn into RW. Not to forget, he already was playing RW several times and constantly changes wings in bvb.If not Reus then Vela, Di Maria, Lucas,...Imo Vela despite Arsenal history would be realy good bet, he can score, assist, dribble, and looks he got mature in spain.What Mou should look besides striker, cm and lb is AM who can score goals.

We Hate Scouse 10,332 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Not happy with the rumours for Mandzukic or Lavezzi...sure we can do better...To be fair we're going to be linked with every striker and their brothers until we have actually found someone.

yuvala 2,167 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Sell Hazard and use that money to sign Cavani+Vidal+Gritzeman? Yh I would do that. If it means we get around £150m for him.I would definately not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 One of biggest mistakes we made was not bringing Cabaye in january. Yes, we bought Matic, but could easily gone after Cabaye too as he was available. Add not bringing Cavani in summer...Great player, in prime, experienced, top FK/corner specialist, hard worker, creative, big friend with Eden.Now, I dont see any realy good CM being available; Gundogan is injured, Kroos wont go and he isnt realy suited for us, Vidal wont leave Juve, Pogba will cost 60mio, Strootman is injured,...
