Way too much FM2014 / FIFA 2014
Shaw: Supposedly Chelsea already registered firm interest, and he has the dreaded promising, young, English combo to drive up his price tag. Snagging him without breaking the bank and Woodwards balls would be impressive. Southampton already did a d*** move to us before by saying no when we asked about Bale some years ago..and then sold him to Spurs. If Woodward can sign him for a penny under 30million pounds, he should get a huge round of applause.
Vidal: Woodward going to promise his kidney along with the transfer fee? Big coup if we snag him, regardless of price. It would be like us selling Keane in his prime to another club. 50-60million pounds might get them to listen, but it might take 70-80million pounds to get them to shake hands. Woodward would deserve a bloody standing ovation if Vidal signed for us.
Kroos: As big a coup as snagging Vidal. He is younger and less high profile, but he plays a LOT for Bayern and they've been notoriously difficult to do business with in years past. The only huge plus (to our changes) for this compared to Vidal is Kroos contract is running down, so if he can be convinced then MAYBE Bayern will be tempted with a big offer.
All 3 for 80-100 million... more like all 3 for 130million pounds, assuming any of the 3 clubs even want to do business.
