Funny that, my mate texted/mailed me last night saying Madrid were to offer 32m or Sneijder + 12m.

Sounds about right to me.
 
i'd then say snide + 15 mill and you've got a deal. then go and buy another 25 mill player. would ease the pain greatly.

I know it's rediculous Skully.
I just don't want Xabi to be sold. I want him to stay here and win the league with us.
He is one of my favourite players.

If Insua was to play, that would mean the entire left side of our team is unproven in the Premiership.
Would you be happy to take that risk?

I think everyone expects a little more out of this summer.

Buying Silva straight up is the way to go. Keep the spine untouched.

I think regardless of whether we sign silva, Riera will start the first game of the season on the left. Rafa will see him as a solid, disciplined (and improving) player and Silva will likely be blooded gently into the team covering any of the 3 positions behind Torres.

I still want to sign Silva.

Agreed. But he is not proven.
 
Id rather we had the money to sign Silva without having to sell Alonso but if that clearly fucking bullshit mirror story is true then Schneider plus enough extra money for us to make a reasonable bid for Silva would be top business.


Silva Schneider Mash and Kuyt
Gerrard behind Torres.....


oac
 
I think this is all a load of crap from the Mirror. they're trying to sell players to raise the money for Alonso so lets see what happens

also, Silva is not for sale and I think I believe Valencia considering they have rejected two bids over 40 million for Villa from Real and Barce

😱
 
Rebel's right

The more hard cash we can get from the Alonso deal the better, because Valencia aren't being the pushovers we all anticipated.

If we do land Sneijder as part of the deal, I wouldn't bet against Benitez pulling out of the race to sign Silva, so the above team may well be nothing more than fantasy.
 
Remember when we thought we were getting eto'o or morientes plus cash for owen? How did that turn out? Hmph

errrrrrrr, weren't you just complaining that buying silva would make 'the entire left side of our team unproven in the Premiership'?

mind you, i suppose if that proved to be a problem we could just use aurelio and riera there instead, although that would of course mean we'd only improved the team at right back.

weren't you expecting a little bit more out of this summer?
 
Someone asked the question about how Real can possibly offer 22m and then suddenly include that plus 2 of their players. The answer is in the original article - We will not be able replace Xabi - thats the problem just like United cannot replace Ronaldo. Xabi is a throw back to the past - the last player like him in this day and age was that Argentinian that played for Betis I think. The creative controller/holding player is very rare - its hard to find both qualties.

Ok - this is going to sound a little racist and all - but I was hoping to get a muscle bound black player to sit beside Masha. I think those matches against Chelsea in the CL showed a weakness of our midfield in that although very gifted they are not physically able to deal with the modern dynamic black players who are fast, mobile and quick - we need someone with ability to do the simple passes, pace and strength - Viera type.

Regards,

Moron
