I hereby declare this thread still open!
*smashes champagne bottle* :D
 
As well as Sneijder's wage demands Nani's impressive preseason performances are one of the main reasons why Utd are having second thoughts about the deal.

You told us not long ago that Nani was definitely leaving in exchange for WS, Nani wasn't good enough and didn't fit in SAF's plans from what I remember you saying. It was all stated as fact, too. You're surely not telling us that such firm facts have been changed by a few pre season friendlies?
 
We'll bring him on a sub against west brom in the 90th to score the winner from a free kick.

Word going around he's already signed....just not in the way we've all imagined. Check out the hot-dog seller next home game

He's being hilarious, Nick.

Not coincidentally, none of the names visible will ever be promoted.

Newbie poster "Relevated" has demanded by PM that I apologize for this post. Very well.

Relevated, I'm sorry you will never be promoted. :D
 
What's not to understand there? Why in hell would you only want him here for a reasonable price? As long as we can afford it I don't give 2 shits about the transfer fee.

You said this to me last week - do you still think that? Boardroom sources at United are apparently quoted today as saying Sneijder's demands are 'mindblowing'. I've reached the point where, frankly, if it's that much of an inconvenience for him to play for United, if he requires that kind of reward, I'd rather we didn't bother. If he now lowers his demands before the window closes, I'll need a lot of convincing that he genuinely wants to play for United, such is the compensation he needs to consider it. I'd far rather we concentrated on what we have as the spirit currently seems so good within the squad. We've enough players who want to play for United to forget about someone who needs 'mindblowing' demands in order to do so.

Hahah, why did he want an apology? =p
 
As SAF says..... Paul Pogba, come on down!

This boy has talent..... and a touch of madness. I can think of several Utd greats with the same.


Bring on the kids. Exciting times ahead.


SAF, get the £30m+ back in your pocket, don't pay £200,000 per week for anybody unless his name is Messi, Cantona or Best.

SAF, forgive the Redcafe muppets.... they know not what they say! :)
 
Have not paid attention at all today. Has there been any developments bad or good thus far in the past 24 hours.

From what I can tell nothing at all not even a hint was suggested at the press conference.

(thats a good thing isnt it?)
 
No, I don't know what he's on because nobody outside the club really does, hence I don't make bold claims about how much he earns. I do, however, treat headline figures from tabloid newspapers with extreme scepticism.
 
You didn't just claim Rooney was on £200k+ per week? Somebody must have temporarily hacked your account there mate, you might want to change your password.

Wasn't that bold was it? I don't read tabloid newspapers, but I've read in numerous broadsheets that he's estimated to be earning considerably over 200,000 a week so why not see if you can forgive what was only ever at best a throwaway comment? How am I making 'bold claims' if it's so widely acknowledged, throughout the 'quality' press, that he's on considerably more than that?

Are you worried that I'm underestimating his wages or something?
 
The figures for his earnings fluctuate from anywhere between 160-250k per week, you know why? Because nobody knows!

When I said bold claim I was referring to the matter of fact way in which you brought him into it, as if you were certain of his wages and that he was earning that much. It's nothing against your personally, it's just that his supposed earnings are quite frequently brought up on here in a negative light when nobody really knows what he's earning.

FWIW I was actually bigging him up - implying that we already had a player worth spending that much on. There's no need for you to be so condescending.
