If Carroll is worth 35 million, how much you think these quality players you speak off would be worth?
And you think they'd be worth it at 60 million or so?

Would you want to see the club spend 35m on Carroll? I wouldn't. These fees are just ridiculous.
On the other hand, if SAF is waiting for prices to go down then he'll have to wait for a long long time (eternity maybe?). Unless.....the UEFA Financial fair play rule will kick were it hurts.
We'll hav to spend big thats for sure!!
Liverpool have not strengthened there team , at best stayed the same and that is pushing it.come on do you really want us to waste £60 mill + on over rated players.
I would rather wait for the right player.
I got texted earlier from a mate saying that we have first refusal on him in the summer. Thought it might be bollocks but logical.
Am now reading we have made a bid for him?

If it's a choice between Utd and Liverpool, choose Utd, Charlie. Choose Utd.
Thanks to Cleverley we may yet be able to get away with having to spend money to replace Giggs. Unfortunately you can't say the same thing about midfield and the goalkeeping department.
Lets face it, even SAF had to embrace the fact that the fees are going up at ridiculous level. 12M for a defender who had less then 20 caps at EPL level and 7m for some random Portuguese kid with no experience at top flight level shows that. Stating that, there should be a limit to this insanity and you can't really blame SAF for utilizing the wait and see approach (the fifa financial fair play rules will be introduced next summer)
According to SSN, we've matched the bid for him.
Don't know what the feck is going on today TBH.

I doubt it's upwards of 14 if we've matched it.
That's bonkers.
We have the Gibson. Why would we need the Adam?
I've no idea, I just heard it there on the TV.
He's still at Blackpool with his agent, both us and Liverpool have put bids in. I've no idea.
I knew Karl Oyston very well as a kid. Played a lot of football together on the streets.
A transfer battle between United and Liverpool with both sets of fans largely hoping he chooses the other.
Go to Liverpool.
If Fergie wants him, then we should hope he get him surely?!
Fibs
Choose Liverpool, the Scousers will love you simply for turning United down.
Please....
If he turns United down for Liverpool then he truly deserves them.
If we are interested it's probably just to drive the price up for Liverpool.
Watch him go for £15m and with that all the Torres money is pissed away on two players they could have bought for a combined £2m not much more than a year ago.

I hope Sir Alex is only doing this to drive up the price for Liverpool, a bit like Nick Barmby all those years ago.
Oh god another useless Scott. Please no...
I challenge you all to show me a bigger fallacy than this one right here.
What a twist... If signing Adams means no Hamsik/Pastore then I'm going to puke
His would be a difficult shirt for Blackpool to fill.
Although Andy Reid and James Beattie are both fat cnuts as well, so perhaps it wouldn't go to waste.

They could always make tents.
Lost contact after he my home town for Blackpool.
We will not sign Adams. SAF or Blackpool being mischievous trying to push price up.
You being serious??
They've been saying that for hours, before they had their guy say we've said no chance of signing him
Would be fuming if we even considered a bid for him.
O okay... would have been a bizarre u-turn!!
Sorry mate was replying to a different poster there so don't come on all high and mighty yeah
Let me put it simple he is not United quality in fact quite far from it. I never compared him to Iniesta or anyone, it was an ironic comparison that was a reply to a different poster and not you, so maybe read back before you post and quote me.
He is not that bad actually. He is a good playmaker. He is excellent at set piece delivery. I m not saying we should sign him but looking at the way you talk about him, its as if we are considering a bid for Robbie Findley.
Thank you.
You are kidding. Right?
Was that sarcasm?
You are kidding. Right?
This caught fire a few hours ago. Since then its been refuted.
We have no interest in Adam. Don't worry.
