if this is true now i have NO problem with the transfer, win win situation.

those prices are insanely cheap in these times. if he gets back to his best it would be the biggest bargain in the last 20 years

shows what football has become

ViVaRooney · 04-07-2009, 12:01 AM

yeah we cant do anything about that can we

anyway some owen chants people have been posting in the official forum:

Quote:

Michael owen's magic,
He wears a magic hat,
And when he plays for United,
He is a decent chap
He scores 'em with his left
He scores 'em with his right
And when he plays the Scousers
He scores all lalalaing night

Quote:

We Love you Owen.... we do
We Love you Owen.... we do
We Love you Owen.... we do
Oh Scousers we Love you

Quote:

michael owen he's a red,
but not the type that dont get fed,
he used to be a gypsy scouse
a dirty stinkin mersey louse.

now he struts his stuff with style,
and he scores goals by the pile,
because he's now a red devil,
the type that plays with gary neville.

to the tune of winter wonderlands:

Quote:

There's only onnnnnnne Michael Owen,
There's only onnnnnnnne Michael Owen,
He used to be lalalalala,
But now he's alright,
Walking in an Owen wonderland

quality:

Quote:

he used to be a barcode, we thought he might retire
but now hes at united then he'l set the world on fire
he may just be a scouser, just like our magic roo.
but when he comes to anfield he'l be ****ing over you

SPECIAL_STEVEN · 04-07-2009, 01:32 AM

United replace Ronaldo with Valencia and Tevez with Owen.

First Team > much, much weaker.

ViVaRooney · 04-07-2009, 01:34 AM

Tevez with owen is an improvement in terms of finishing. and thats what i want from a striker. especially if you take into account how much each would cost

Valencia may not be as good as ronaldo but he does somethings better like being a team player, his crossing and work rate.

The Citizen · 04-07-2009, 01:34 AM

Why the fuc do you keep getting youngsters? Stop destroying Italian footie!!

Go and traffick some brazilians

There's still a £85M transfer-kitty available for Sir Alex you know.
Owen was free and Valencia cost like £15.7M?
There's still over a month left of the transfer-window, and with the way Madrid are bashing around like they own everything it's smart to wait it out until their intense period has cooled down a bit. That way every club won't use a "link with Real Madrid" as an excuse to inflate prices of players even further.

cbcruz · 04-07-2009, 01:47 AM

^There's almost 2 months left of the transfer window. It's closing August 31.

den525player · 04-07-2009, 01:49 AM

I can't believe Owen passed his medical!!!! i thought he would fail lol

2 years contract on something like 40k is a good deal.

I wonder what number he will get...

Speculation.

You don't know how much he has, all you know is the club said Fergie will get the money, however as anybody on here who has first hand experience running a business will tell you, things aren't always as they appear. Whilst they say Fergie will get all the money, I can guarantee you they'll be telling him that they don't want him to spend anywhere near that. Also, in business you look for the cheapest viable option. If I owned United I'd see Valencia and Owen as the main signings done and wouldn't expect Fergie to ask for more than another 20 mil tops.
You'll all disagree with me, but what you have to understand is the Glazers look at this the way I am. As a business. If Fergie thinks Valencia and Owen are good enough, then that's 2 in, 2 out. Business sorted. Healthy profit into the bank.

Yeah, what your doing isn't right, City are doing it with that kid from Espanyol, they should be produced by the clubs that found them. You've signed god knows how many babys over the years.

But I'm pretty sure Fergie will yield alot of power in where the 80M will go, if he decides he needs it and has a plan on how to spend it wisely.

I'm quite sure they didn't plan to lose 2 players & to then straight swap them without looking at improving other areas of the team. Glazers first interest is the business side of things, but they'll know only full well that you have to spend money to accumilate money, to gain long-run success.

SAF will have changes he'll want to implement for the long-term vision of the team, which in this case would be replacing players at the twilight of their careers (Referring to Scholes, Giggs & VDS), since he's already covered the losses of players leaving. I imagine they'll give him 40M of it, but that does depend on who SAF wants to bring in, and how much they'd cost.

Last time Fergie spent 80M in the summer, they won the CL & EPL the season following, so he has a strong case to back.
