I cant see saf would sell any of his players to us even if we're under his best pal uncle roy. No way. Regardless of the relationship with rafa, they'll never sell their player directly to liverpool and vice versa. That's why owen is called a traitor even he's long gone from liverpool...

for Mata deal, iinm the deal came in from United, Jose ask him if he want out, and he said yes.

but that was the only deal for such a big transfer fee, at that time Chelsea was raising fund / and balance the book when we bought Willian, Matic, Schurrle and Salah.

from Jose perspective, he always insist that he need 2 players for every position, that is why we have 6 players for AM,LW,and RW.

but I agree with some of you that, from player perspective of cuz some of them will not play regularly.

and from us, fans perspective, we feel sorry for some of the squad players but at the same time we want the best possible situation for the club.

about Mignolet performance, dont you guys think that the defense department that was leaking and not compact enough?

......and no one raised an eyebrow when arsenal sold/released afew to citeh.

Of course the defence department needs improvement. The blame is not solely on Mignolet but Mignolet himself needs to be a lot more commanding and assertive in his goalkeeping especially when dealing with set pieces or crosses.

citeh offering insane money, how to reject? even we can't reject chelsea 50m on Torres also.

where got insane money ler??

kolo toure -> 16m
adebayor -> 25m
nasri -> 25m
clichy -> 7m

above all in uk pound.

the latest one being sagna who citeh snapped up for free samo.

And the way the scooped up Lampard is very very de illegal!!!

look at the performance between mignolet and de gea, both got leaky defence but it was de gea heroic performance that help mu to 3 points vs everton. mignolet had not been producing that kind of performance for a long time and we had yet include the number of errors he committed this season.

loan deal wat. why illegal??

arsenal are well known to be a "feeder" club, even rvp to mu only cost $20m. this is what i don't like about arsenal, they sell all their best player to rival club at just slightly above market price.

That's why you don't sell your good players to rival.

Arsenal sold players (Nasri, Clichy and a few more) to Mancity, they won the league.
Arsenal sold RVP to MU, MU won the league with RVP.

While Arsenal win no trophy in the process.

You only sell to rival if the insane money come in to a "declined" player.

Lampard signed new contract with MLS New York who also owned by the owner of Man Citeh. Then loan to Man Citeh. Man Citeh was hampered by FFP not to spend more than 50m on last transfer windows. That's how the got lampar for free.

The only heroic moment I can think of from Mignolet is the first penalty saved he made. Other than that, last season we had been leaking goals like nobody business, luckily we have SaS scoring goals like nobody business too, which saved us from numerous disasters.

Then come this season when we don't have SaS to bail us out, and Mignolet is like his old self, leaking goals like nobody business.

I really hope we get Valdez, better if Cech to cover our back line, and concede lesser.

This is the reason why I like/rate Sakho more/higher than Lovren, well, I am not sure how accurate and true this stats is. But based from my observation and view last season when I watched Sakho play.

Personally noticed last season, many times the attack will start from him by making a long, direct and fast pass straight to Coutinho, leaving the opponent's midfielder behind, then the magic will start by Coutinho and SaS.

De Gea started off badly for MU too...just I don't think it took that long for him to come good. Goalkeeping coach eprhaps?

Illegal doesn't sound right to me, a dangerous precedent is more like it.

A shell football club to avoid financial penalties basically.

You're forgetting the crazy wage + incentives that a club like City can offer.


Anyways, your avatar really distracting. Name please?
