no idea. It's a nice problem to have though. I still shudder from when it was suggested that Cleverley could be our new No 10.

You'll be 'cryin' just like he was when you see some of his other posts in this thread...
For pure amazement and fun just ensure you're not near hot drinks or anyone can see your puzzled expression when you read his views.
Its like flicking a switch to the twilight zone.

Why are people saying we haven't spent on defence.... what about pickford and keane??... i would think they would significantly improve our defence which wasn't all that bad last season when u look at the goals conceded column .... we will add more defensive signings before kick off as well
Or we could just do the decent and honourable thing and negotiate the price
If we do as you say we are no better than that lot across the park
Williams is not and has never been an absolute liability. He was pretty decent last year actually. Not amazing, but not the carthorse that some people like to believe he is. I agree we could do with another centre back, but the idea that we were awful at the back last season is just mental.

No-one guaranteed anything but even today people are amazed we have spent so much....but we haven't spent anything when looking at sales.
1 -- Sell to buy is actually fine as long as the correct areas are strengthened. For example, if we sold Lukaku but signed Rooney and Sandro to replace him and added to that with Pickford, Keane and a top centre back then weve massively improved defence but taken a gamble in attack, That's fine with me....but if we sign a midfielder instead of a centre back then were still gambling in attack and weak in defence....pointless
2 -- I don't think anyone would be happy with baines, Williams and jags starting with Cuco the clown at right back (which will happen if keane gets injured) as we will lose every game
3 -- No. He made that statement. He couldn't back it up. He failed.
4 -- We're not discussing anything other than the transfer window, In particular the Sigurdsson deal.
5 -- Its common sense if were overpaying....
6 -- We have scouts across the globe. he have scouts for all levels at the club. We have head and chief scouts. We also have Steve Walsh. if these guys cant find better players than Giroud and Sigurdsson for 80mil+ then that tells me the whole of football is a mess or our scouting network is.

Birds of a feather flock together
1. Moshiri is the man in charge so he can say what he wants.
2. Well that's the decision of the manager and the dof. They think signing Siguardsson is not pointless.
3. Niasse mate are you serious? None of the players you have mentioned above are target man. I honestly see we will sign a big forward before 31 August. Wait and see.
4. Sorry, I won't write the team off in July.
5. Again, it's not 31 August yet so we don't know if we are getting more defenders in.
6. Cos he is. No, Koeman has already done more than him at the club. He is repairing the damage/mess the fraud had done to the club in less than a year.

You are joking!
We have made an offer. They have said sod off.
We DON'T have to kow-tow to their demands. It's a hard-nosed business game, which other teams play (probably far more than we have in recent seasons). ManU chasing Fellaini & Baines; Chelski chasing Stones; Citeh chasing Rodwell & Lescott. RS chasing VVD, with Aldridge doing all he can to swing it for them (by saying the player should go on strike, among other things). All played out in the media from their end.
We may ultimately walk away totally, leaving them with a disgruntled player.
But to suggest that if we do as I say we are no better than that lot across the park is insulting...

I think you may have missed the tone of sarcasm in my post
Mate we have just signed Henry Onyekuru who was apparently wanted by about 70 other clubs, as well as adding about 5 new players to the under 23's from various clubs around Europe.
Yep, sounds like its in a right old mess!
Facts are, no matter what they do, there will always be some internet know all who thinks they know better, when in truth, they really don't.
Yes its fine for us all to have an opinion otherwise there would be no point in the forum, but the way some go on about things here, it's a wonder they have not been head hunted by the major european clubs, such is their apparent in depth knowledge of all things football.

prefer being behind the times
I'm 100 percent sure there are better players out there but they are unproven at prem level... Not that i believe our league is massively superior but it is more physical... Siggy is proven... Giroud is proven. Both Should be seriously looked at... Also both seem good professionals so wont harm the dressing room.
