    Berbativ to United....Again!!!!

    We have an alleged transfer embargo (bullshit I think) and Rafa is not sure to sign Masch til July (which means Koorbachian will flog him in spain I bet) meaning we are looking at Muntari. Meanwhile our rivals have Lahm in their sights, that Lyon player and again look likely,sooner or later to grt Berbatov.

    Say what ye want about Rafa, he is not in an even playing field. It drives me nuts that we are still being linked with crap players while united cream off the best.


    Ferguson plans Berbatov swoop
    Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has reportedly stepped up his efforts to sign Tottenham striker Dimitar Berbatov.

    Ferguson is believed to be keen on a move from the frontman in January and is prepared to offer Wes Brown and Louis Saha - plus £6million in exchange, according to the Daily Mirror.

    Manchester United failed with an initial bid for the Bulgaria international striker in the summer, however they are now hoping that Berbatov's recent unrest at White Hart Lane will make any potential move easier to negotiate.

    Tottenham boss Juande Ramos, however, is thought to want Portuguese winger Nani, who moved to Old Trafford in the summer for £17million from Sporting Lisbon, in exchange for the former Bayer Leverkusen striker.

    However, Ferguson is not willing to let the 20-year-old leave the Premier League champions and will not include him as part of any deal for Berbatov

    More mumblings about Berbatov wanting to leave Spurs. I hope United don't get him - I wonder would he be interested in a cash plus player/s swap deal to Liverpool. I'll let ye decide which if any players could be swapped for him.

    I hate that stuff from players...and players agents.

    That would piss me off if i was his team mate or a spurs fan.

    Its also dissapointing in the terms of teams like man utd..chelsea can basically hand pick who they want leaving lesser clubs incapable of replacing their star players and obviously they are constantly rebuilding.

    For all of berbatovs good play there is always a few games where he is moaning and barely interested.

    We can hardly get another world class striker, and i'd be a lot happier with Jones than Kuyt or Voronin.

    Your right saying we can harly get another world class striker - especially at this time of the year. I honestly don't know if he'll be any better than Kuyt or Voronin though, and if we do bring in another striker I get the feeling Crouch would be the first to go.

    Yeah,atleast Kuyt and Voronin have been playing a few games,Crouch is only really Carling-FAcup-Champs League material for the first few rounds.

    The problem with the likes of Jones etc is that we only see the highlights of these players ie the best bits.
    We tear our own players to shreds because we see them week in week out for 90 mins and scrutinise everything they do.If we sat and watched these players as closely as we do our own.
    How many of them would stand up to our own high standards that we set for our players?
    IMO very few.
