Summer transfer thread 2012

It was amazing, we were in a serious amount of **** if we lost that game aswell. And a squad no mark really just went and owned one of the best teams in Spain on their own ground! He was dribbling through their midfield and defence like Messi. So bizarre.

I see Swansea have been linked with Valencia's Pablo Hernandez as a replacement for Sinclair. Not that familiar with him myself but I seem to recall a few on here rating him highly.

Affelay apparently gone to Schalke

It's mental. He's a good player, capped for Spain. They're talking about £5.5m. WTF. The value abroad is unreal - £2m for Michu, £5.5m for Pablo, £8m Papiss Cisse, £15m Cazorla........£20m Downing, £11m Matt Jarvis, £14m Steven Fletcher.

He's on £250k a week and you won't find a single United fan who thinks his performances warrant that kind of layout. If they sold Rooney they obviously wouldn't rely on RVP, Hernandez and Welbeck - they'd buy another.

Rooney?

[Shaggy]

Yep.

QPR agree a deal with Real Madrid to sign Granero.

Affelay apparently gone to Schalke

Wants CL football & wants to be with his alleged bum chum Huntelaar...

[dom9]

Yep.

More than £1 MILLION pounds every month, basic.

By giving him away, you'd probably save over £15M per year, then any transfer fee on top of that.

The difference is stunning.. Some managers/clubs must have no knowledge of football outside of England which is pretty shocking. Newcastle have taken advantage of it the past 18months and Swansea are doing similar now.

Its probably part of the reason why there are so little British players playing abroad, there are obviously other reasons too but could you imagine a Spanish club enquiring about Jarvis and being told £11m? They'd piss themselves.

Hope we're tapping into now, wouldn't mind us looking at Navas if we are really in for Walcott as an alternative.

I was clearly not giving a single f*ck.

[Gibbo]

Can anyone see Kaka' making an apperence?

Meant to be going back to Brazil but I can see Qpr or Chelsea taking a shot

Berbatov medical at Fulham.
