Mines' been out for a few days now, my boss is starting wonder why I never leave my desk...![]()
This would certainly come out if we did sign him.

I think that he mentioned Chelsea and Madrid yesterday when he spoke of a cash tsunami.Seem like Benzema has informed the Lyon board that if Manchester United were to put in an offer he would wanna go.
Why else would the Lyon adviser only refer to us?
Doubt it, Benzema, if the stories are to be believed, doesn't even want to play in England. Just this week someone from Lyon mentioned that once he does leave it will probably be to Real, as that's were he wants to go - then again, that was probably Marca reporting that.Seem like Benzema has informed the Lyon board that if Manchester United were to put in an offer he would wanna go.

I am referring to the article a few posts up. He only mentioned us.I think that he mentioned Chelsea and Madrid yesterday when he spoke of a cash tsunami.
Did this interview really happen?In an interview with THE LEAGUE champions league magazine Benzema was asked "what about the english premier league? Manchester United are said to have kept an eye on you for a long time now" his response was " I love English football too and when I watch it, its just for the red devils. Definitely they are my favourite team. The funny thing is I play in France, but I dont really watch the Ligue 1 games. Im mainly interested in watching Spanish, English and Italian football. "
Yeah I have the magazine here beside me it also has interviews with Vidic, Van Persie and Sergio Ramos in it because it was for the last 16 of the champions leagueDid this interview really happen?
That is pretty good then.Yeah I have the magazine here beside me it also has interviews with Vidic, Van Persie and Sergio Ramos in it because it was for the last 16 of the champions league
I actually think they has all changed with ronaldo's transfer to madrid. Maybe Benzema would relish the challenge of coming to a Manchester United team without ronaldo and doing what ronaldo done for us.Doubt it, Benzema, if the stories are to be believed, doesn't even want to play in England.

Would love him at OT as i did last season before paying over the odds for Berbatov.But judging from these quotes Lyon will try and squeeze the club dry for his services."If Manchester, who as we know have plenty of cash available, want to buy Benzema, what can you do?"
apparently he had a poor season....still the little I have seen of him...he looked impressive.Would love him at OT as i did last season before paying over the odds for Berbatov.But judging from these quotes Lyon will try and squeeze the club dry for his services.
just give them 45 million and let it be done.... we will still have 35 mill left of the ronaldo fee, we can get douglas and valencia for that. Buy moutinho or de rossi with the rest.
£28m-£30m should dojust give them 45 million and let it be done.... we will still have 35 mill left of the ronaldo fee, we can get douglas and valencia for that. Buy moutinho or de rossi with the rest. IF this happened i would wank for 6 days solid and rest on the 7th
knowing lyon and considering todays market, i doubt that would be enough..... 45 might be excessive i agree but i wont be surprised if he goes for 40mill£28m-£30m should do
I'd be hesitant paying £45 fecking million
whats funny?
aulas....I've read the article a few times and I think he might be dropping some elephant sized hints. Either we are already in the process of getting him or he is trying to whore out his best player to get as much money as possible
We'd get 80 back in 3-4 years time. Almost double your money.£28m-£30m should do

I honestly believe this close season is a one-offWe'd get 80 back in 3-4 years time. Almost double your money.
I would be shocked if we got Benzema for less than we paid for Berbatov. £45m is pretty realistic imo and he would be worth every penny.£28m-£30m should do
I'd be hesitant paying £45 fecking million
An unoffical agreement perhaps for letting the winker transfer go through?I actually think they has all changed with ronaldo's transfer to madrid. Maybe Benzema would relish the challenge of coming to a Manchester United team without ronaldo and doing what ronaldo done for us.
Marca are also reporting that Real are currently negotiating with Inter Milan for Zlatan. Yet the only player that they haven't been rumoured to be bidding for is Benzema.
You did not have us signing Marek Hamsik as well, with a part of the Ronaldo money.whats funny?
Weak. Benzema is all we'd need. Valencia is no better than Nani.The muppet in me has arrived:
---------- Van Der Sar ----------
Rafael - Ferdinand - Vidic -Evra
------- Carrick - De Rossi -------
- Valencia - Berbatov - Rooney - (these 3 giving some mad interchange)
------------ Benzema ------------
Where's the Berbs?Weak. Benzema is all we'd need. Valencia is no better than Nani.
--------- VDS ----------
Raf -- Rio - Vida -- Evra
--- Carrick - Hargo ---(Fletcher for Hargreaves if you like, most likely really)
Nani -- Rooney -- Ando
------- Benzema ---------
On the bench.Where's the Berbs?
Great argument from the dyslectic. I'd obviously put my money on Jarmon's thoughts.Pretty sure that Benzema isnt coming too us!
no worth more than £35m.£28m-£30m should do
I'd be hesitant paying £45 fecking million
Pretty much agree with everything, although I feel that I would like to give Berbatov regular first team action too. Berbatov's touch and Benzema's finishing could be a lethal combination. Berbatov & Benzema sounds like a good partnership in letters at least. With Nani and Rooney on the wings, a shame to put Rooney out wide though. What about this?for me...
-----------Van Der Sar
Rafael----Rio-------Vidic------Evra
-----Hargreaves----Carrick
Valencia-----Rooney----------Nani
------------Benzema
Read the last few pages and you can edit your post.What is going on?
If he doesn't want to play for us what is the point in hoping?
