Yeah.

He's currently looking for his bottom, having lost it while laughing.

He is on old legs the two french guys real bought this year and last window who are superb will be playing ahead of him. I hope we don't do another crazy deal with a guy coming more towards the end of his career than going into his prime.

You would have to be stupid to join Utd now.

Haha are people genuinely saying no? He’s better than all of our midfielders put together for the last 5 years. We’ve no chance of getting him.

100% no. its the same bs we have been doing. get one decent season out of a guy towards the end of his career, pay stupid transfer fee and to make it worse wages off the chart and then unable to move then on. then listen to moaning by everyone how not good enough and club is incompetent and why are we not spending to buy more to replace him.

its a pattern and been going on for a while now.

He’s better than all of our players, how do you know he will only be good for one more season? He’s 30 not 40.

Much better than what we have.

He spent the majority of last season injured. He comes off the bench for them now. Real has bought their midfield for the next 7/ 8 years in those 2 French guys.

Father time catches up to all and he is not what he used to be. He is a physical player but in the pl he will find it a lot harder on older legs and lost step. just watch him next time he plays.

Amazingly enough for a guy who spent most of last season injured he made 32 appearances in the league, 31 of which were starts and made 48 appearances overall.

He is 30/ 31 year old. Madrid are a waste of time to negotiate with. Will take a massive fee and the soap opera that comes with the player not wanting to leave, if it does happen, his wages on a 4 year contract will be astronomical for a club that has spend money like drunk sailors on the wrong players in terms of wages and contracts and seems unable to move them, so let's add another one to that list. Its rinse and repeat. If you think that's a good way to go, I guess we can disagree.

He’s only 29/ 30 years old. Just add a year to back up your point.

Born in 1992. Did not look at his exact birthday. You think its a good investment to pay 50/ 60 mill and 250k/ 300k a week min i reckon on a 29/ 30/ 31 years old. Total cost to the club with all the fees blah blah 120/ 140 mill.

Schweinsteiger, sancho, falcao, cavani, ronaldo, ibra, varane to name few, how has that worked for us in terms of trophies? Picking up players whose best days are behind them and their current clubs know it and only reason why they let them go. being the village idiots in the transfer market has been our achilles heel.

I don’t know about our current scouting/ recruitment strategy but quite clear whoever was running it in the past was not very good at it. Mcguire 80 mill, aws 50 mill, dvb 40 mill, fred 40/ 50 mill, martial 50 mill and i can go on and on.

We need a reset and rebuild with young talent with scouts who know what they are doing. When was the last time we bought a player and his value is much higher today. Just one player will do. Scary stuff.

I reckon unlike other teams the primary reason we can’t move any first team players unless their contracts are expiring is their wages.

Read dialo going on loan. We spent 35 mill if i recall on him a few years ago. 2/ 3 years later not even good enough to make this squad. Everyone has bad buy but we seem to miss on almost everything.

People who moan about our current issues and want a change. Well change starts with not continously repeating what clearly has not worked. If city or liverpool are the benchmark, do you see them buying 29/ 30/ 31 year olds as ther key trasfer window signing.

GDS Just to be accurate he turns 31 next Feb.

So just to be accurate you saw he was born in 1992 and decided to say he’s 30/ 31 for what reason?

lol well he is 30 and going to be 31 in feb mate. Let give Madrid 60/ 70/ 80 million why not and give him 300k for 5 years, might as well.
