League Title

[Charlie_B]

Not basing it on anything mate, just harsh facts. Whilst we are doing a reasonable job buying talent, it seems we could easily be left behind by Chelsea and Manure, if they decide to splash the money on players such as Tevez, Malouda, Alves and Pato.

In any case, we're discussing things in here, and it's all about opinions and deductions. We'll just have to wait & see until the season starts if we could really be in a position to aim for the title.

I've said it before and I'll say it again - there is probably very little separating ourselves and United in terms of transfer funds. The difference is, they have a near-perfect first XI in terms of NOT having to go out and buy first teamers here, there and everywhere. Hargreaves is one for the first XI perhaps, but not as necessary to their XI as say Torres is to us. Nani and Anderson, whilst highly expensive, are replacements for Giggs and Scholes respectively. They'll be "phased in" this season. Kuscak(sp) is a back up player, and they are in a position, like they were 3 years ago with Rooney, to splash out on a player they don't necessarily need just because he is that special (Tevez).

Us, however? Talk to neutrals, they think we need two first team strikers and two first team wingers, maybe a left-back too. Money-wise, we're just signing different types of players is all.

I don't think we'll spend that much less than United's £50m net to date (I'm excluding Tevez because he's a one-off signing, and liek Rooney will probably come out of future budgets)

Personally I think we will come second this year, but will win it next time around. Our new players will need a little bit of time to adapt.

**** off out of my thread then and start your own loser thread:whatever:

[paulcooper4]

can't really see it. it'll take more than one trophy signing to get close next season. We were so far off the pace last one that it'll take a huge improvement.

you can **** off too:whatever:

[paulcooper4]

That attacker just happens to be a fantastic finisher and a very creative player.

I think Rooney and Tevez will be a fantastic partnership upfront for them if they sign him

you can **** off to red cafe:whatever:

[paulcooper4]

We need 2 more players & two more years.

you can join the **** off club:whatever:

I like the optimism of this thread. Sadly I'm with the pessimists and am far from convinced.

neil, need I say it?


yes, F U C K O F F !:whatever:

[paulcooper4]

I don't think we have the money to compete with Chelsea and manure.

**** off frog:whatever:

[paulcooper4]

Spot on, we won't win it next season but we will get a lot closer, I would hope to be still in contention in April and be about 5pts behind and in second at the end of the season. If we do that there is no reason why we cant do it the following season.

go and rot in the desert ****face:whatever:

[paulcooper4]

All we need is some ****er who can cross a ball. He doesnt need to be a world beater and cost 88 squillion quid. Just someone who can do the simple things right and ping in a cross. Then we are sorted.

Im more confident of us winning the European Cup than winning the league but as long as we do better than the Mancs and Chelsea in everything Im happy.

Can you believe this shower of miserable **** suckers invading my optimistic thread?!!!

I'll keep this brief: if we can get a good winger in we can without a shadow of a doubt challenge(properly challenge this time) for the league next season.
We'll have everything in the squad to mount a serious assault on the premiership but it's time for the talking to stop and the action to start.

Keep the faith coops

I think it very much depends on who else we sign. We'll be there.
