Jonny Evans. Strongly linked by proper newspapers. Hmm.

In today's market £8m is a decent price . He's just reaching his prime . He's won plenty of trophies and has a wealth of champions league and big game experience. He doesn't need time to settle into a new league . It's a very good deal for us if it happens.

 

[Moomin]

We will have to pay him in excess of 75K per week to be back up for Stones.

He will be on more than double what Stones and McCarthy are on. Won't go down well them both.

 

[Jags..class]

Pretty much this.

It's the price.

He's free next season. Couldn't we have done a Cleverley?

But we need a defender this summer

 

[bizzaro]

how do people know we are not going to pay £8 mill for him? ITK ??

Because of the story in the Telegraph.

Which is full of holes. Like he's only got 12 months left on his contract.

Looks like his agent is trying to get United to give him a contract.

The price is ridiculous.

He will take a wage drop

 

[Axlswhk]

Cleverley. Case in point.


Nonsense story.

good point there.

 

[Yorkie]

well I suppose you could always think of his wifes... err... face instead?

Sign him.

I can see Bobby's game now. Sign the players with the fittest spouse's.

The dirty hound.

Its ridiculous.

We didn't pay 8 million for Cleverley last summer.

We won't pay it for a player like him now.

Especially when he's free next year.

i didn't realise he was in a free next year. But he's still a good solid signing .

Not at 8 million he's not.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

I can't rationalise this transfer in anyway.

Injury prone.
Last year of contract.
Jonny Evans.
Prat (Spitting incident...)

We could do so much better for Stones/Jagielka cover.

In fact - Distin, or 8m for Jonny Evans?

Distin.

It'll be something like 4m, but even that's too much.

 

[MACCA75]

Think he'd do ok next to Jags tbh, like he was when next to Vidic. It seems to me that when he's the experienced one of the pair then he's had problems.

 

[l4toffee]

Not at 8 million he's not.

the price is bad I agree but I'm happy having Evans instead of alcarez .

 

[Huyton Layne]

The dirty hound.

All after making sure Distin is out of the picture. He's so obvious.
