Am I the only one who doesn't get the hype around Fellaini?

Nope.

[Chazza]

Long ball Moyes

Lose Rooney and sign Fellani a sure fire way to retain the league and win the Champions league.

[PTP]

Yeah, around 1992 I think.

[PTP]

it was inevitable that moyes would turn to fellaini and baines

they were his 'go to' signings

try and sign some top players (fabregas/ronaldo ) and when that failed, and it looked like time was running out, go for those two.

£30m would be massive for everton

Baines would do well there (i really wouldn't be surpised to see Evra go the other way ) Fellaini though - hmm it could turn united it to long ball merchants which could be funny.

[Barnyard]

I bet Martinez is dying to get rid of those two for £30m.

Baines isn't getting any younger and the haired one is no CM.

He could change the squad with £30m.

Agreed mate. They're both decent players, good players, but I don't think they're what United need nor United standard. Most United fans I know around here, some of them hardcore home and away, *really* don't want them to spend £30m+ on those two. They're pretty deflated

[Rich]

£30m is on the cheap side.

Baines was talked about in the £18m bracket earlier this summer and Fellaini at over £20m.

I reckon Everton could expect to get about £40m for the pair. The thing is Baines isn't a significant upgrade on Evra, he's better but it isn't a weakness in the United first 11.

[Shaggy]

They won't get them for £30m.

£40m or thereabouts could be spent so much better than on those two.

[Chazza]

Fellaini apparently had a £23m buyout clause which has just expired and the press are trying to spin it that Moyes was being 'respectful' to Everton by not activating the clause.

Was he ****! He was waiting for it to expire so he could try and buy him and Baines on the cheap

Evra's getting on, 32. He's only going to decline. Maybe it's already showing, he's had better seasons than the last one.

Possibly but Baines is no spring chicken. 29 at the end of the year.

[Neil Young]

Yes, they'd be better off spending their money on someone younger. But I suppose Moyes wants his boy in there and someone he feels he can count on straightaway.

It's good if they spend getting on for £20m on a left back who'll need replacing in three or four years. Less money to spend elsewhere now and in future.

[RedReet]

I thought your boy Buttner looked good for them or am I being fooled by a debut goal?

[Shaggy]

The latter. He's rank bad. Decent going forward but a train wreck at the back. He won't last long.

[RedReet]

That's good then.
