You have €40,000,000

Spend them all on Premium Bonds.

or £20m on RVP and £20m on... maybe Moutinho or Martinez.
 
If Sahin only wants to come on loan... then could always accept that and have:

0M - Sahin
8M - Neil Taylor
12M - Dembele
20M - RVP

If Sahin works out, go for him in the Summer. Then you'd have a midfield selection of: Scholes, Carrick, Anderson, Clev, Dembele, Sahin

Then if Scholes and Sahin both leave in the summer then its not a huge disaster as we'd have Dembele to be the 4th.
 
Martinez release clause is €40m so I'd just buy him. Simples.

Or buy Sahin for €15m and spend the rest on a full-back. (Alex Sandro or Aly Cissokho, who apparently wants to leave Lyon.)
 
Or keep it all and trust in our players.
 
I imagine everyone so far has just assumed we'll be able to get Bolt from the Jamiacan Athletcis Administrative Association on a Free?

I know I did...
 
£30 million Martinez
£10 million Sahin
 
I'm just going to be honest that I don't watch other leagues enough to know.

But I would try and a central midfielder who can defend but is technically gifted enough to dictate. As I said, I don't watch enough to know who, though. I've heard Sahin is that sort of player. If he is then him and a left back for whatever remains. Next summer we can go for this blockbuster attacker we seem to be chasing.

Martinez.
 
Martinez 12m

RVP 10m

Modric 15m

and the remaining 3m I would put in the bank and let it grow until I could afford another quality player.

Why not

Messi 5m + Bebe

Ronaldo 2.5m + Mike Phelan

Martinez 2.5m + A free tour of Old Trafford for two Bilbao Staff & family

The other 30m on a Caribbean cruise.
 
Put them all on Brazil/USA/USA to win the Olympics. Double our money. Glazers then take 40 millions for themselves. Then spend it on someone. Glazers win.
 
15m dzageov
7m willems
17m felliani or cabaye
 
I wouldn't mind seeing one of Cabaye or Tiote for £15m.

A loan deal with an option to buy on Sahin wouldn't be a bad move either.
