Spike 12,049 Posted January 19, 2012 Author Share Posted January 19, 2012 Can I choose none of them, because none of them would really want to come here? We're no longer a super club, the quicker people accept this and realise us signing Mata was just a one-off freak, the better.When the hell were we a Super Club? Sure we were fantastic 2004-2008, but in my mind it takes something more than a few years of dominance to become a 'Super Club'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manpe 10,861 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I think Mata wasn't even considered in the same branch as those 3 in terms of demand/talent... he was chased only by Arsenal and Liverpool afaik, so we were a natural selection for his ambitions.

Peace. 4,352 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 just to be clear... are you guys talking about some Erikson who I'm not familiar with or Christian Eriksen?They are talking about Eriksen, I guess. For some reason, I've always seen this guy being called Erikson here lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure we were fantastic 2004-2008, but in my mind it takes something more than a few years of dominance to become a 'Super Club'.When we were in five Champions League semi finals in six seasons.

Spike 12,049 Posted January 20, 2012 Author Share Posted January 20, 2012 When we were in five Champions League semi finals in six seasons.Getting to the Semi Finals and not progressing is more depressing than anything for me. Sure I'm happy that the club did well, but why should I be content with third or fourth place finishes when Chelsea could have been Champions for all those five years.

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I agree. I believe we have underachieved in the UCL. However, for that reason, during that period we were one of the four best clubs in the world over that period alongside Barcelona's 04-07 and 08-present teams, United's 2006-2009 side and Milan between 2003-2007.

Spike 12,049 Posted January 20, 2012 Author Share Posted January 20, 2012 I can agree with you on that fact. I often reminiscence about that team and it always brings a smile. I believe that team was one of the few successful teams the didn't have a real playmaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slam Dunk 1,442 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Who has the most potential? Probably Neymar.Who do I think will become the best player?

KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Wish we signed Neymar when we had the chance, no chance now, the only way we could even begin to think we could get him is hope he stays in Brazil till the world cup and hope we are the best team in the world by 2014 so we can attract him here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
