What about the spanish guy Pique ? Forgot his full name. I thought he played really well last season forgot against who. He was playing as a centerback. And i think he can play as a holding midfielder as well. He's more like o'shea
si|verfish said:The good thing about buying from minor leagues (like Portuguese, Dutch, French, etc.) is that players can be gotten at a cheaper price. If we were to go for Aaron Lennon for example (I rated him), he would cost a million billion pounds.
Quaresma might go for 10 - 15 million me thinks. We can afford that. Why leave money for the Glazers? Joaquin qould have gone for 20+ million 2 years back. Now I think he could be had for 15 million as well. I think only recently Betis lowered his buyout clause because Joaquin wanted to go and Betis wanted to sell. They aren't going anywhere with him anyway, so might as well sell and rebuild.
Senna is a lot like Gilberto Silva for Arsenal. I like the looks of him. Villareal were so strong last year because of Riquelme. But Riquelme could only be so effective because of Senna behind him. The only thing is that he is rather old (30 I think). And I think after the latest transfer saga involving him and us, he wouldn't want to come to Old Trafford anymore.
Downing? Like you said, nothing special. More Keith Gillespie than Ryan Giggs.
Trezeguet? Nah, never rated him. Nothing special. Ruud was a lot better than him as a CF and we sold him off.
Aimar is at Zaragoza now, well....I rate Stewart higher than Kevin though :PSeraph said:He is in a between stage now. Young, gifted, in-form and having a good season. This is the time where players will be most expensive. They may be playing great in their current club and it seems a good idea to buy but if he comes to a new club at such expense there will be a heavy burden and not all players can cope with that. Perhaps he only did well because the team also suited their style to his play. Like Beckham was good for us but he is just a squad player in RM.
Remember Scot Parker? Was expensively sold to Chelsea then sold-off quite cheaply to Newcastle when he didn't adjusted to the Chelsea playing style and was off-form. Skill, talent and class is forever and he is doing alright now at Newcastle though once they adjusted their play around him.
Betis have this habit of putting insane buy out clause, don't they know that era has ended with Chelsea the only exception.
Saha, Trez, Henry, Cisse, Anelka all came from the same school their play is more or less similar with differences in individual styles only. I don't think he will be a good buy unless he is coming for less than 10m.
Carrick can play a similar role to Riquelme once OH comes ;)
At least you rate Downing as Keith Gillespie, I was in the impression he was only a Kevin Killbane:emoticon_U:
BTW where is Aimar now? He is a good player. At one time he, Caca and Kaka were rated equal.
Don't worry about Al-Liverpool, they won't want to buy expensive lemons like Chelsea. Their best players now were not bought at absorbant prices.
