..I think it would have been better had Fergie said they don't have any more money to compete in the transfer market!! I honestly struggle to see how they will challenge the top honours with Giggs,Scholes,Carric injury prone-anderson V the already proven City Midfielders,Arsenal and of-course Chelsea but heck am no football manager what do i know..but come to think of it Fergie sold Pique coz he had Evans!! lol

Allegiance aside...unless SAF see's something we have not been seeing and from the signings Chelsea have made and the squad Mancity have...whatever he see's must really be compelling to make him believe we can capture top honors and at the same time compete in Europe...

Last season he reckoned we are no far away from Barca...I see the way Barca play and I will rest it at that...hell we could not even compete with Atletico...

Conclusion is either SAF has issues age catching up or as the Green & Gold guys really say United are broke...

I believe this will be a defining season the coffee has been smelling...the signings made are not enough....

word!!

Roy Carrol, the most expensive English football player ever, off on loan to Westham. You should have seen the look on Pardew as he told reporters "I wish Andy all the best" The smug look on his face said it all.What a waste of money by Liverpool owners. Even if we sold Berba to Fulham for around 4M pounds after buying him for 30, at least he was with us for 4 years and gave us one very good year (19th title) and Fulham are paying his full 100k a week wage, hehe. And they didn't want to pay Moussa Dembele 45k a week???Well at least they got 15 big ones for him.

Scott Sinclair off to City, I think he might get a number there, despite the full backs making runs upfront. For Swansea that's quite a loss but I think they'll survive.

QPR have the highest activity this window and what surprise signings like Granero and Julio Cesar with the possibility of Carvalho joining them. If they gel fast they could establish a position in mid table.

Arsenal targeting Essien?He'd bring the vacant steele left by Song and let's admit it, to contend in all competitions you need depth.

Let's see what surprises will come on deadline day (remember Andy Carroll???Hehe)

Unfortunately for them the deal appears to have collapsed yesterday after they failed to reach an agreement, its also being reported that the player is not keen on a move to Spurs. They might still sign him, anything can happen before midnight tonight.

I've just seen reports linking Arsenal with a move for Essien. Last season we signed Arteta (without a medical) in the final minutes of the transfer window, i expect similar move from Wenger!
