Transfer deadline day Summer 2013

[retro_royal]

What's this, a gobby Scouser? It must be September la.

[King of Sting]

Pissed the league last year. Strengthened where we were weakest and Coentrao not half bad. A solid deadline day. Thank fock its over. Night.

A solid deadline day Coentrao lol. Ander Herrera unbelievable lols.
This transfer window has been a disaster for Manchester United and David Moyes. Here is why :-
The summer window opened with media speculation that Bale would leave Spurs and that United would go toe to toe with Real Madrid for his signature. When it became obvious that he would prefer the Spanish option the manc fans I know started to convince themselves that this transfer would upset Cristiano Ronaldo and he would come 'home' to United (how I laughed). The summer continued with rumours of approaches by United for several players including Khediera, Ezequil Garay, and Daniel De Rossi but no progress was made. Then came the embarrassing low ball offers. Cesc Fabregas for £30m in a market where Bale was being priced up at £80m+ and this offer being openly spoken about by Moyes. Then the offer to Everton of £28m, described as derisory, for Fellaini and Baines when Everton had stated that Fellaini would only leave if his buy out clause of £23,5m was met.
All of the above would be forgotten about if it wasn't for the embarrassing final day of the window. Three Amigo's turning up in Madrid to finalise a move for Ander Herrera. I still cant decide if they really were imposters or United just pulled the plug on the deal after getting the lad to state he wanted to leave. Either way it was fecking incredible. Then as the clocked ticked towards the window shutting 'United Sources' stated that a deal had been sorted for Fabio Coentrao. Guess what ? It hadn't So you were left with the fuzzy haired one from Everton. If he was what you needed then why not snap him up for the £23.5m buy out clause early and have him integrated into the squad for pre season. Instead it was left to the last minute, forcing the player into submitting a transfer request and United to pay an extra £4m.
If all this wasn't enough to leave United fans pissed off they can cast their minds back to Sunday
Liverpool 1 Manchester United 0.
Yes a defeat to the scousers is never pleasant for a United fan.
Now I am the first to admit that your club has been the absolute benchmark for the last couple of decades under SAF.
Will the success continue with the new regime of Moyes and Woodward ? Nobody knows for sure. But it has been a fecking woeful start.

M8. Wrong forum. This is for Reading fans.

M8. I don't think you understand the concept of the general football forum.

Not really being gobby though am I ? Not said a word about LFC except for a little reminder of the score on Sunday.
For the record I predict 5th for Liverpool. I think our fans would accept this as slow progress but progress just the same.
For United I predict 3rd. Not sure your fans would accept this because you are used to finishing 1st or 2nd under the hard shoulder shitter.

Liverpool fans would know a thing or two about disastrous transfer windows. Downing, Carroll, Adam to name but a few. Then sold on for a massive loss.

It's a bit embarrassing that in the 23 years since you last won the league, your club has spent more money than United and don't have a league title to show for it.

Not like you to jump in and lick Retro's arse
Not sure where you get your figures from but that is bullshit. I agree about the past transfer windows but as a Chelsea fan I wouldn't bring up Carroll. We funded that move with the money we robbed off you for Torres.
Torres from Liverpool to Chelsea £50m. Sturridge from Chelsea to Liverpool £11m Cheers Roman.

You mean Torres who helped us win the Champions League, Europa League and FA Cup since his move from Liverpool?

Yes him. If you think he has been value for money then you are blind, insane or both
Have a go in my top 6 thread kes. I would be interested in your predictions.

23 years of Merseyside hurt

League titles
Liverpool = 0
United = 13

Total transfer spending
Liverpool = £618m
United = £534

FA Cups
Liverpool = 3
United = 4

European Cup/Champs League
Liverpool = 1
United = 2

League Cups
Liverpool = 4
United = 4

Managers
Liverpool = 9
United = 2

Average league position
Liverpool = 4.61
United 1.73

So you've spent £84m more than United in 23 years, not won a league title and United have won over 15 more trophies than you in that time.

First of all I think your figures are wrong but you have read it somewhere so believe it as gospel. They certainly do not include things like player wages, for instance Wayne Rooney earns £250,000 a week. Liverpools top earners get nowhere near that amount. I am actually quite happy where we are these days. We can't compete with the arabs at City, the oligarch at Chelsea or the corporate machine that is MUFC. But we are a stable self sustained club these days and I like that. If I live till I am 100 and we never win another trophy I have still been spoiled. 5 European cups in my lifetime and I was there for 4 of them.

Have a go in my top 6 thread kes. I would be interested in your predictions.

We earned £51m in prize money alone for our Champions League success in 2012. £24m from the Europa League in 2013 and £1.8m for the FA Cup win.

*This does not include gate receipts and other forms of revenue....

I told you that over 23 years you had spent more money than United, which is correct. You said I was incorrect. Rooney may be on high wages, but United's revenue far exceeds that of Liverpool.

£84m more in transfer fees! LOL!! Not surprising when you pay £20m for the likes of Downing.

Yes and ? That wasn't Torres FC. He was ineffective for the most part. Anyway see my post above about me being happy at were we are.

You where incorrect. Wages is spending as well as transfer fees. £20m for Downing is not as funny as £50m on Torres and £32m on Shevchenko. 5 European cups. I'm out of this fred

[No Fixed Abode]

Torres for Chelsea

£50m/3 trophies = £16.66m per trophy

Carroll for Liverpool

£35m/1 trophy = £35m per trophy

Think we got the better deal tbf.

[King of Sting]

I don't tbf. You are as annoying as ever so you have just joined Para Handy on ignore.

A Liverpool fan trying to ignore the truth. There's a first. Oh..........

[King of Sting]

Can't see it but I bet he has answered with something really immature and nothing to do with football. I hope I am wrong but I doubt it.

[sandman]

Tbf Torres is great value...for a laugh.



He says Gif probably fails.

Addressing people with 'your club' when talking about man utd on a reading forum makes you out like a numpty. Hth.
