That's not saying much. I'm waiting for my call up seeing as Wellbeck has a cap.
Been worse strikers than him in recent years! Nugent, Jeffers, Bothroyd...

What do United and Arsenal fans think about their clubs conducting transfer business in a manor similar to Barcelona or Real? Everything getting leaked to the press and managers talking (only at United really) about it.
I would say its totally different as Barcelona usually start talking about signing someone before they've lodged a bid, then all the Barca players start chipping in too.
From what I can tell, Arsenal and United have both bid for the players before saying anything about it, which I would say they are entitled to do?
In fairness maybe I should not have mentioned arsenal as they have no experience signing players over £15m and no one bat's a eyelid when they are linked with a young French boy and they certainly don't bang a drum about it.
United however its just totally different to how SAF used to do business. It makes you wonder if its how it's going to be from now on. My mate who is a United fan thinks its all a huge smoke screen to mask the fact they have not got two pennies to rub together.

No idea but that's what he thinks. Says they are going after and been linked with players who won't come to appease fans.

So, i'm Arsene Wenger. I'm sitting there, touching kids on top of my £100m war chest. £100m. What would I do? I'd bid 45m for suarez and the 36m required for Fabregas (providing he'd want to sign, bare in mind he hasn't actually come out to say he has no interest in leaving Barca) and give the league a good fucking go.
What's his problem?

And according to Robbo, Arsenal havea 50% sell on too, meaning it'd actually only be £18m

I reckon you'd have more chance signing them if you set Steve on the case
I honestly don't see the problem with what I posted, why is it so hard for Arsene to put it or something similar into place? Two massive signings and show your intent...

Wenger won't change his ways mate. As a united fan it pains me to say this, but his transfer policy even annoys me ffs. I wish he would just put some money out there and bring Arsenal back to where they were before. I just can't see that happening.
