starts hunger strike
no but i think the press did, thanks to his brainless comments were gonna have endless speculation over felli now.
what about james morrison for a mere 20 mill?
Toffeeweb claim there are reports he has a 24m release cause. 26m makes me feel better for some reason.
I think he's going to Chelsea, and he'll be part of a good set-up and have less eyes on him in a good team. For a risky 15m signing, it will be good that we made a profit, but I'll miss him.
On the plus side, it might mean we can keep Baines and Pienaar on the left, and sign a few players too. The problem is I don't trust Moyes to improve our side that much with the money. When he sold Rooney he replaced him with Beattie which was ridiculous and when he had the Lescott money he wasted it 10m of it on Billy.
Donovan - Pienaar - if we can get them in for 10m or so, plus one or two others, and bringing the likes of Barkley and Duffy into the side more - would be good.
The one thing I don't get - is Moyes' recent comments about Fellaini moving into Cahill's position more regularly. Was he just trying to promote a sale by bigging up Fellaini? Maybe it's not set in stone that Chelsea are interested in a big money deal.
I think we've priced Man Utd out of a move for Baines. I think Moyes might not want to lose both Fellaini and Cahill but freeing up wages and receiving perhaps £30m, of which could invest a large amount into new players - might be a good thing.
With Moyes' recent comments regarding Fellaini moving into Cahill's position - it seems ridiculous and bizarre that we could lose them both.
I personally would be up for that scenario - but don't see it happening. So perhaps Fellaini will stay at least until January. If we're top 5 in January, and playing well, Chelsea may re-ignite their interest and push for the title with a bid that meets the release cause. I think that's a more realistic scenario actually.

There would have been anyway. Fellaini is a top top player and with someone like that there will always be transfer speculation.
I said for the time he has been here, just enjoy his time in a blue shirt - it won't be forever.

Utter Cad.
In all honesty, I'd have to agree. Forget the Lescott fee - that was a one-off. Remember 8 years ago when we slapped a £50M price tag onto Rooney during the Euros?
the 50m for rooney was a fair price or at least 40m, he was a dead cert to make it, euro 2004 confirmed that when he was one of the players of the tournament by far
fellaini is far from the finished article
But you think Rooney was in 2004 ? LOL.

And yet we got £28M for him.

True but they are more fitting for the defensive midfielder role, Fellani is more useful when given more attacking freedom imo and can't see him being played DM.
YES lol.
ferguson stuck him in the champions league first game and he bagged a hat trick,
first season 17 goals.
That doesn't mean he was the finished article, he only really kicked into his prime around 2009, and he's grown as a player massively since he joined United.
Would people be prepared to loose Mofro, if it meant keeping Baines, 26mill and Barckley getting mins week in week out - suplemented by Rodwell, Gibbo, Cahill, Nev etc?
