Would the kit sponsorship deal being up in the air have halted some bigger signings (if Vidal and Di Maria are to be believed targets). As in that needs to be signed so we know how we cover that outgoing?
Let's take it easy with this Di Maria stuff. Nothing to suggest that there's anything more to it than the other 20 players we've been linked to. Should go without saying but some people seem to immediately dive in head first.
Personally, I think he'll end up at PSG if he does leave Madrid.

Well the projected increase in earnings from this deal will be likely 30 million pounds per year,It also will give the books an even better look. The debt would look even more manageable, I dont see how it should not rise. But stock market is like the wife, you never sure how she is going to behave.
You wouldn't have thought so. If Woody has the big 3-4 usual suspects fighitng over a deal, he's surely going to know roughyl what he has to spend.
I was thinking that these enormous numbers could work against us. If teams we're trying to buy from know we have this enormous deal coming in, they may think they're in an even stronger negotiating position to bleed us dry. This on top of Woody going on about how much we're going to spend and the fact we obviously need quite a few reinforcements, I'm surprised we've not had to pay even more for Shaw and Herrera.

If we got Di Maria, I'd happily buy somebody like Carvalho / De Jong.
I'd love Vidal, and have liked him since I bought him on FM from Leverkusen, but to be honest, the balance of the team would probably be better with a defensive midfielder happy to just sit back, and it would give more freedom to Mata.
But, Id rather have Vidal and Di Maria
IF IF IF we were to sign Di Maria for me it throw up an interesting thought of just what formation Van Gaal is looking at? I think a lot of people would agree our true wingers have been pretty damn poor, but then our other options that havent quite fitted in being out wider seem to be played on the left in Mata, Kagawa and even Rooney. People are saying Di Maria will be a good winger for us, yet he has been playing as an advanced midfielder for his club. SO what formation would LVG be looking at...and where would he be playing him and at whos expense?
You comment about being hapyp with Carvalho/De JOng if we signed Di Maria is an interesting one as you cant rule out a midield of the likes of Carvalho behind Herrera and Di Maria.
Personally Id rather Sanchez than Di Maria, Id rather Vidal than Maria...but Di Maria would give us more options that the other two formation and flexibility wise.....my brains exploding thinking what LVG may have in mind if there is truth in Di Maria interest regarding the best formations and fitting the players in
Why?
Barry to Everton is about to be done apparently.
DM? Are we totally righting off Carick/fletcher? I mean Carick is not a great tackler and we know about Fletchers' health problems, but surely they can be of some use OR Am I missing something?If we got Di Maria, I'd happily buy somebody like Carvalho / De Jong.

Compared to the money we bring in - £60m is wee buns Sandi.
Most fans have been frustrated by a lack of quality spending in the areas we most require. We have 2 areas partly sorted (Evra looks like he's sadly leaving - so we need back-up at LB, & Herrera & Carrick are our only quality CM's) that we desperately needed upgrading, but there's much more work to be done in CM & CB positions, not to mention the lack of quality we have on the wings - bar young Adnan.
Lingard needs to be given a chance, aswell as Lawrence. Young Wilson looks like a great prospect also, so i'd sell Hernandez & have Wilson take his place.
Shaw & Herrera are great signings, but we cant stop there if we want to be challenging this season. This is a great opportunity to get top-class players in, its a very unique summer where there seems to be more players available than ever before. We cant miss out on top-players for key areas & take a punt that LvG will make last seasons squad contenders. Its dreamland to think that shit is possible with just two new additions. There needs to be a clear-out of wasters at the club & start afresh with hungry players - new players in & promoting the best of the youth.
Get the 1st team sorted with top-players first though & then we can bleed the young lads throughout the season!
This! A thousand times, this!
You would of thought that Di Maria is more of the type to want CL then Sanchez.
Not going to get into this rumour until a credible source has broadcast it, I'm getting too involved in the Vidal rumour as it is

Barry has signed a 3 year deal with Everton.
Ever been to Paris?
Who wouldnt want to live there & be paid a kings ransom for your services also?!
3 years! WOW. how slow will he be by the end of that!
Just think it's more likely that PSG will pay the huge fee being touted and think our main focus is elsewhere in terms of positions. They will also give him massive wages, have CL football and already have Lavezzi, Pastore and a few other South Americans.
Participation in snail racing will be his next big career move.
Paris is not all that.
I think that this occurs regardless. They have to learn about the history when they join, unless someone can tell me otherwise.Who is going to do that if Evra goes? He used to tell new players all about the club.
Tour of museum etc
Bit of a dump in places but not the areas these players will be experiencing.
Rumours from unreliable journos in spain that we offered 55 million euros.
I lived in France for five years and Paris is probably the worst part of it.
One of FFP's sanction on PSG this year restricts their wage budget and they would have to sell a "kings ransom worth of wages" before they could pay him.
Can they afford £50m what with them being scrutinised by FFP? Or is it true they don't give a feck
About Di Maria does he have a UE passport ? Because if he doesn't he can't play for PSG, they have too much foreigners.
Followed by Ian ladyman.
Pretty sure there's a direct quote from one of their higher ups saying they will buy who they want regardless.
Haven't seen a more forced smile in a long time
My understanding is that hey have been restricted to 60m euros (£47.7m) this summer by FFP and can only spend that on one player. It is not surprising we are seeing this £47.7m figure being banded about in todays tweets. It is more likely we have matched their bid and it will be down to the player, as it always is.
Martinez is thinking "feck you Kenwright"
And they've paid over the odds for Luiz so if they keep spending and keep breaking the FFP rules they won't have CL football unless they sell big, Cavani for example, plus the french league is the poorest of the major European leagues. Depends how ambitious the player is
55m euros = approx £44m
A fair price I would say

To be fair, our in-stadium advertisements make more than all 19 other clubs...combined. Or did in 2009 or so. That might not still be true.

In the current market, yeah. £44m isnt much of anything when you are buying quality. Its a market where mediocre players can fetch in £18 million and David Luiz and go for £50 million.
If Ozil went for £42.5m, then anything up to £45-50m is fine with me for Di Maria.
