sadoldgit Posted 14 August, 2014 Share Posted 14 August, 2014 You're comparing us taking Alan Shearer on as an apprentice with a £12m signing of a 27 year old established striker. Yeah, that works. No. I am saying that it doesnt matter where someone comes from. Cant you read? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GarrettIvo Posted 14 August, 2014 Share Posted 14 August, 2014 Hull supposedly making a bid for Welbeck to replace Long if he does indeed leave. Possibly wouldn't have minded going for him myself, although obviously a) he probably wouldn't want to come here, b) might demand more than we could pay and c) would he be too similar to Pelle in style? albeit more "proven" in this league. Clearly he's never going to get a regular starting spot at United. Goal record factors out roughly the same as Long in terms of per game I think.

CB Fry Posted 14 August, 2014 Share Posted 14 August, 2014 No. I am saying that it doesnt matter where someone comes from. Cant you read? No one said it did matter, did they? It was a humourous comment referring back to our outstanding global scouting network managing to unearth someone who's been on Match of The Day every week for the last four seasons.

Wade Garrett Posted 14 August, 2014 Share Posted 14 August, 2014 We still need to sign another centre-back as well as Gardos. We were short of quality in depth in that position before Lovren left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buctootim Posted 14 August, 2014 Share Posted 14 August, 2014 (edited) Bad hair. He'd fit in with Taider and JWP but Pelle would be embarrassed by him. http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/15198/9187333/sky-sports-scout-in-association-with-wyscout-reports-on-solly-march Edited 14 August, 2014 by buctootim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got masses of potential but ultimately untested at a consistently high level. I know they right him VERY highly there so would command a premium fee.

Fitzhugh Fella Posted 14 August, 2014 Share Posted 14 August, 2014 Its fine, but as a whole its no wonder the number of people who actually post snippets on here is dropping like a stone given the Spanish inquisition they get. People need to accept that some information is true, some not - its down to each individual to work out the likely credibility and take it on face value. This forum would then be a much happier place. More often than not it is isn't actually possible to provide details of sources unfortunately. Agree it's sorting the wheat from the chaff that is the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bye Ive hardly turned everything into a negative, I find the situation we are in far from comfortable with too many big players leaving and not enough quality in return added to late aquisitions denting preperation. If that makes me 'turn everything into negative' then so be it. Much better then rocking back and forth in my bedroom repeating "kruegers right...kruegers right" ad infinitu Try debating a subject rather then blindly ignoring discussion.
