It seems that we have signed Zeki Fryers?

Yeah somebody at work told me about an hour, I was like who?!

Not the player to give Assou-Ekotto sleepless nights, is he?! One for the future, maybe.

I assume that, with Cudicini unfortunately going, Gomes will remain our no3 GK?

Cudicini has already left and now Gomes is our third-choice keeper. To be honest, I haven't seen him on any photos this season.

We would need to be extremely unlucky to have Lloris and Freidal injured at the same time.

Okay so far we have a kid for LB who might make the grade in 3 seasons or so and a player coming in July.

What about Lescott for an instant defensive solution and he has a few years left in him, he can play CB and LB?? Wouldnt want to pay 8 mill though.

Rumour is Remy is moving to Newcastle had hoped we would get him.

Looks like we have got Lewis Holtby, but not until the summer. A young and talented midfielder with a lot of prospects. Think he could be a good signing for us.

It shows we are thinking long term, as well as short term.

German full international too, so could be very promising.

Haha I think Levy the tight git just done a fast one on Manu. Ferguson probably has a point but f**k him anyways.

Why tight? I think it is good business dealing. Why spend more than he should do.

Yes good business sense, but if it true then its abit unethical and underhanded.
£3m is nothing to manU. But what if all clubs starts doing this ? Costs a lot of money to nurture a young talent  , what if this happend to us? we be pissed. The loss of compensation might hurt smaller club financially too

I agree with what you say, sadly though, it does happen by other clubs. We could take the moral high-ground while other clubs manipulate the situation. Standing on the high ground might make us moralistic, but also naive while other clubs just move in. Football, like other  business, is a dog-eat-dog life; i.e. the quickest, fittest and cleverest will survive. Nobody remembers the morally conscious. Football is a business first.

Anything we can put over Fergie is good enough for me, as long as it's legal. 

I hear the old git is moaning about the Fryers deal and wants an investigation!! Obviously we've touched a nerve here. He doesn't like it up him!

[Chelmsford_yid]

Fergie has't had anything else to moan about, so he has to moan about something.
