Shak Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Campbell and Sorin would have been great additions at the back. If Man U go for Bale during the summer you'd wonder what Evra's situation will be. Depends on whether Heinze moves on as well I suppose. I'd like Evra here though for sure. Arteta has to be the best signing on that list, fantastic player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest eyeball_tickler Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 if you count loans then woodgate and riquelme too. not so much riquelme, but we should at least show some interest in him this summer. i'd imagine he'll be going cheap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delima Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 Mikel Arteta £2m Patrice Evra £5.5m - At the point of purchase hard no one (fans) would think Evra at 5.5m is good and cheap. And initially he struggled in the premiership. Lee Young-Pyo £2.05m Phil Neville £3.5m - Hardworking useful utility player, no really our priority. 3.5m is not really cheap either. Henri Camara £3m - Not cheap and not good enough Benni McCarthy Undisc. Hatem Trabelsi Bosman Lauren Undisc Sol Campbell Free Lucas Neill Undisc - Not cheap Steed Malbranque Undisc - Not cheap and not needed Nelson Haedo Valdez £3.22m - Not cheap Juan Pablo Sorin Undisc. Diego (Werder Bremen) £4.08m - Not cheap and not needed Maicon £4m - Not cheap, although he is a class player and hence would be expensive Lucho Gonzalez £2.46m - Not needed Nihat Kahveci Undisc Aleksandr Kerzhakov £3.34m - Not exactly cheap Yaya Touré £3.03m - Not needed Moussa Dembele £3.42m - Not exactly cheap Aldo Duscher Bosman (Going to Lyon) Hamit Altintop Bosman (Going to Bayern) Diego Placente (Price not known. But he can’t be that expensive) Yoann Gourcuff £2.39m Julien Escude £1.37m Stephen Appiah 5.5m - Not cheap and not needed Standout transfers have to be Mikel Arteta £2m Lee Young-Pyo £2.05m Benni McCarthy Undisc.

johnnypd Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 that is a shocking price for Diego. we should go for Dembele this summer, if we have money left over after filling our priorities. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinho lad Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 and he would have come here instead of werder bremen? Not a lot of people thought signing Owen was realistic. We were even shocked when we signed Luque! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JamesD Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 true, but that also doesn't mean that the opposite assumption (that all those players would have joined us) is true. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinho lad Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 true, but that also doesn't mean that the opposite assumption (that all those players would have joined us) is true. Agreed. But at times we have to try to go for players even when we think they're not realistic. I certainly wouldn't like seeing us give up before we even started.

Cajun Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 Kerzhakov for £3.34m is very cheap for a striker, considering we spent £36m+ on Luque, Owen and Martins! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isegrim Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 Diego (Werder Bremen) £4.08m - Not cheap and not needed It depends on what you consider as cheap when you look at today's transfer fees, but saying a player like Diego wasn't/isn't needed is quite a bit absurd imho. He is a fantastic and influential playmaker who creates shitloads of chances for strikers. For Werder he was an absolute steal for 6m Euro. They wanted to groom him for replacing Micoud next season but were forced to directly put him into the team as Micoud left a year earlier than expected. He is a revelation.
