Soda Jerk Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 Does Pardew want Fellaini? He'll be cheap, and he's from the country which is next to France, so he'll be totally mates with everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murrr Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 Villa have signed Joe Cole and Senderos. Obviously the "buy loads of unknown blokes and hope they turn out alright" strategy wasn't working for them, but they're going down the QPR route now. A pretty dangerous tactic: Cole is shot to pieces, and Senderos is... well, Senderos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A pretty dangerous tactic: Cole is shot to pieces, and Senderos is... well, Senderos.Agreed on Joe Cole, I'm guessing he'll be a bit part player at most. Senderos isn't a bad centre back though and him and Vlaar could make quite a solid defence (assuming Vlaar doesn't go). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain America Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 I don't get Joe Cole. He keeps taking transfers to these lower tier EPL clubs that don't play close to a style that he could thrive in. The one good season he had recently was in France and by all accounts he really enjoyed it and played well. So why not do that and actually play well and enjoy your final few years? Unless of course it's all about the benjamins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Milner Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/481392/Luke-Shaw-AGREES-160-000-a-week-Manchester-United-deal Insane money for an 18 year old left back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain America Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 I saw that on twitter last night and assumed it was just twitter making shit up. It's the Express though so it's probably taken from that tweet. It was made by one of the guys from goal.com so I'm not believing it. Anything near or above 100k is far too much though. Far far too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 There will be a crazy amount of pressure on Shaw to succeed if any of the figures in that story are true. Since he is a left back, I do wonder how the mainstream media will choose to portray his success, as it's not like he'll be banging in goals all over the shop or surging through the midfield with swashbuckling runs, setting up Welbeck for goal upon goal.

Soda Jerk Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 It's rare United break the pay structure for players. Maybe they would have for Hazard but probably still nowhere near what Chelsea and co were offering. Maybe they'll chuck Shaw an extra 20k a week, though Zaha and Adnan might throw a wobbler. Whilst he's due to cost big money, he's still only 18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murrr Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 I'm not ready to deal with the idea of United being unshit again. I really don't want them to sign Shaw. Hopefully Chelsea get him, and United end-up with a season of Paul Buttner as first choice instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 Don't worry. United will probably be a little better with a manager who seems tactically sound and has no regard for the status of particular individuals. It'll be no giant leap though. 4th-5th is realistic. There's still going to be some lols. And let's not forget the squad still includes Tom Cleverley, Marouane Fellaini and Ashley Young. That's alotta lols.

Adam Easy Wishes Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 So...new kits for this season. Celtic, have gone for this: Whereas, Rangers have gone for this: NOT POLITICAL AT ALL MATE. The OF, as always, are laughable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paranoid Android Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Isn't the Celtic top going against the normal sectarian bullshit by promoting themselves as scottish? I don't see the big deal. The hearts top is class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
