Think we're on about different players mate. I'm talking about Sneijder.

Rumoured that United are only offering £8m (plus add-ons) for Zaha! If that's the case we should be offering £9m (plus add-ons e.g. £2m extra for 50 games, £1m extra for 10 England Caps, £3m extra for League title win etc) plus give them Pacheco and LOAN them Flanagan & Robinson until the end of the season.
If Ince is worth £6m then Zaha has to be worth at least twice that.

I'm with Ross on this one. The wages he'd command are too much of a risk.
It isnt flat?????
He tweeted 'Manure' a few days ago Pesam ... We have no chance mate.
It started rounding around 340 CE mate.
What's CE?
Common Era.
What does that mean?
Ah ok.
On the flipside - if we weren't already in mid table and weighed down by bad contracts given to 'experienced' players and were in the top four with a healthy squad and contract situation it would be a risk worth taking
He's looked rather clumsy on the ball everytime I have seen him.
Is he actually any good? better than Ince?
Doesn't Ince have roughly twice the assists and goals that Zaha has?
Dunno. Never heard of it.

Fischer is a prodigy but he didn't outshine Eriksen in the City-games mate.
Eriksen got the MOTM vote in their home game and played brilliantly throughout. Fischer also played a good game, but mostly so after the break. Eriksen is much further ahead in his developments and would instantly improve us, but I agree we should buy both.

All I can say is that I believe it would be a massive signing on several levels if we could get our hands on Sneijder.
Could be our Pirlo. He is that good.
Considering how much he'd cost, he'd be a massive risk. A better risk to take than say, Joe Cole was, but still a risk. The kind of one we could end up regretting for years if it didn't pay off.
While I like the idea of us getting him, I'd prefer to use that money on two younger players and spread the risk a bit better.

Your probably right I was just more impressed with Fischer to be honest, Eriksen probably is great I just don't see enough dutch football, I watch the English leagues, spanish, german and south american leagues more.
wait until Harry signs Sneijder and M'Vila too, we'll all be ouching
Stop moaning both of you - let's just get both of 'em. OK? OK.
Zaha hasn't performed that well over the last 2 months, all the transfer talk seems to have affected him. I think Ince is good but comparing him to Zaha is IMO like comparing McManaman to Giggs.
I didn't see his tweet about Man Utd, I can't believe they got (or are about to get) the 2 players I've been banging-on about; Zaha & Powell.
Fair enough i'm the opposite to that see and would rather us sign just him than say Tom Ince and Wilfred Zaha for example. I can understand though the wages and everything though.

The main difference here is that Cole, despite his good seasons for Chelsea, is nowhere near Sneijder class. A player whom in my opinion is amongst the top 5 best midfielders in the world. At least when on form.
How often does a player like that get available, even at a rather feasible ammount of money? It may turn out to be a fiasco but he's still half the money of Downing, Henderson, Borini etc.
Worth it. Would love Rodgers style of football too.
