Love that we pinched him from under Liverpool's noses. In the future we could look back and all be incredibly thankful that Fergie acted when he did.

Rawk earlier: Gonna be a star la, welcome to LFC you'll never walk alone'

Rawk now: feck off manc cnut you're shit.

Nice to hear Arsenal were interested too.

Jones and Smalling are exactly the sort of players they need. Hehe.
 
He spoke with Wenger last night but chose us instead of Arsenal :drool:
 
Sky say he spoke to Wenger last night, but chose United. They imply that Liverpool were not his alternative choice, Arsenal were.
 
According to SSN he actually turned down Arsenal to sign for us, not Liverpool.

Interesting, and not something that has happened lately with young players so very good news!

Smalling turned Arsenal down, too.
 
20 million for De Gea
16 million for Jones
16 million for Ashley Young?

And a potential midfielder?


MERRY MUPPET SUMMER
 
So is Jones going to play in MF for us? Jones, Young, and De Gea could be the three signings SAF spoke about.
 
Interesting that he only signed a new 5 year deal with Blackburn last Feb (2010), but that included the £16m clause.
 
Arsenal fans are gutted. First Smalling and now Jones :devil:

I don't think he planned to sign Jones this summer, so no, if there was a shortlist of 3 signings/3 positions then Jones isn't one of them.

This is a ridiculous signing. 18million for an overated player and to make matters worse we are spending 35 million on de gae and young. we need to buy game changers like sneijder and alexis sanchez

Have these deals been sorted or is Sam_4mu talking bollocks?
 
If stupid Gill wasn't on holiday we could have snatched him before Liverpool. Now Liverpool's signed two talented English men while we look like a poor Jewish kid on Christmas.

Yeah, journos saying Liverpool forced Fergie's hand. Apparently we were willing to wait until next season for him

I think he said that before our midfield was dominated again by barca. They may ahve been the 3 players before teh final but i think that a midfielder will be signed.

I agree. He was probably looking at him as a long term replacement for Rio/Vidic, but had to act quickly as soon as the others moved in.

I don't see Jones as the answer to the midfield. Obviously he could fill in the DM role, and possibly let Carrick have more freedom in some games, but no way do I see his #1 position as CM.

His name's Sam_4mu...

Which would you say is more likely?
 
So we have the two best centre halves in the country and we're soon to have the two best young centre halves too. Nice.
