Although still not 3x what Liverpool make.
So the debt can be quite easily managed at the cost of success.
Anyone grabbing on?

Can it, in that case how much have you paid off it each of the last 3 years...which have been as successful as its going to get?
Or have you actually just rolled the debt up and increased the overall level?

That would involve Arsenal not being 3rd. Not going to happen.

Man City could overtake Arsenal if they get a good run of wins going I guess

Its you who are going to get caught - on a slippery slope.
Beaten by Leeds, and then your top players want to leave.

I'll take that bet on Clown. Liverpool fail to break into the Top 4 and you lose! And if Vidic leaves, Fergie will find another top top defender.

Unless we get you in the FA Cup.
We'll go a point behind you I think if we win, which will be the first step to getting above United in 3rd.

OK.
Vidic to Real Madrid, £25m
United debt to be lowered by £25m straight after.
Apparently Babel to Birmingham for £9m was turned down by us, so may end up being £10m. Also heard it being mooted about as going to Galatasaray plus about £4 or 5m for Turan.

On that basis you'd be talking £13-£14M for Turan and is he really any better than Babel?
I remeber he was a target for Newcastle a couple of seasons ago at around the £7-£8M mark and whilst he undoubtebly looked a talented player he seems to have fallen off the radar abit and seems represent a bit of a risk for Liverpool.

I like the talk of babel fancying galatasary for that very reason, I think arda turan would add something very needed to our team, regardless of whether rodriguez signs, and as far as i'm concerned babel has had his chance.
