SimonButtle reacted to Avinalaff in Jorginho
I agree. We don't have the squad strength to have the luxury of blowing that much on one player. The same amount with careful scouting could bring in 4 or 5 young players for when our older lads move on.

SimonButtle reacted to Avinalaff in Bobby v Moyes - if you could have moyes back now would you?
The Internet is full of 9 year old mentalities Si. Any fan without calluses on their dragged knuckles knows that the proof will be in the pudding where managers are concerned, so I try and ignore the fickleness on both teams forums.
Some United fans need to realize a few things:
Fergie has only won the European Champions League twice in over 26 years.
It took him 12 years in the job before he won the first one, and there was a 9 year gap before the next. It has now been 6 years since he won it, so for 'any' fan to judge Moyes on whether he wins that competition is a fool.

And from way back in 1968:

SimonButtle reacted to Avinalaff in Fellaini - Defensive Midfielder
100m ? I thought it was 85. It's ridiculous. Bale has a good season and he becomes worlds most expensive player? Laughable.

SimonButtle got a reaction from Cake in Fellaini - Defensive Midfielder
I think Baines price should go up but not Fellaini's. As you said before Haf at times he looks like he can't be arsed(most of the second half of last season) he has wanted away(or his father has) from the club for the last few years so loyalty is no big thing to him. He can be petulant and has a poor disciplinary record, im not surprised more clubs havn't come in for him and i still think he will be here next season, his release clause of £24m is about the right price for him imo.

SimonButtle reacted to Peter H in Fantasy Car
Volvo P1800 is my dream car of all cars. Wanted one since forever. Not that expensive really, you can get a good one for around 16000 pounds. Im no good with engines though and dont have the time. Also my wife would rather get a new kitchen, new bathroom, new second bathroom, walk in closet, swimming pool bla bla yada yada.
Ill get those out of the way first and then my p1800

SimonButtle reacted to Cake in Longest Thread For Sport Talk
Papisse (sp) Cisse mentioned briefly in news this morning he's set to 'star' for Newcastle for the first time in a friendly against St Mirren after his dispute over Wonga being on the skunks shirts.
Weren't Virgin Money their sponsors last season? What do Virgin Money do, amongst other things? Loans, credit cards........

SimonButtle got a reaction from Bailey in Rovers vs Everton
It took me the first 10 mins to workout was it the same Ross Barkley or a mutant twin, we won't need a midfield signing if he can produce that sort of form.

SimonButtle reacted to Bailey in Rovers vs Everton
The best thing for me is seeing how confident they all look, especially the younger ones. Barkley looked like he was ready to take on the world and if he cocked up he got straight back up and went again.

You will get in trouble for saying that Mark.

SimonButtle reacted to Bailey in Kopite Thread
If you were spending £40mil on a striker, I personally would prefer to spend it on one that isnt going to be suspended for half of every season!

SimonButtle reacted to Fearthainn in Kopite Thread
What's funny about this whole saga is that most of us saw this coming a long, long time ago. The kopites never learn and are once again showing the world their true colours.

SimonButtle reacted to Bailey in 3-4 players wanted, but who are your choices?
I think Martinez is now just biding his time. It sounds like we have money to spend and I think he wants to see who can adapt and who cant. Once the US tournament has finished I would expect to see a couple out and at least one but maybe two come in. Judging my his press conference, I can definitely see a couple of the younger players step up.

SimonButtle got a reaction from Bailey in What market are we shopping in?
Because they can afford to pay for the best managers.

SimonButtle got a reaction from Quinn31 in Alessandro Matri
We simply have to, even if Jelavic stays, if he has another season like last we are screwed. If he goes that leaves us with Kone, Victor, Vellios. That's a championship front line not premiership.

SimonButtle reacted to Bill in David Moyes thread
Arsenal style, pass pass pass I'd settle for that this season.
