*** January Transfer Window ***

Leatherface would have fucking sorted this.

MP will also be concerned that the central defenders we have lack pace apart from Vinny. If he picks up another injury we are very vulnerable e.g. Watford. That may have persuaded him to offer so much for a CB. If Mangala is worth that much then he must be fantastic and a cert to play for France. If he is not a cert for France then is he that good? Just makes me wonder but I have nt seen him play.

fernandinho? but in general I agree with your point. outside of maybe vinny and thiago silva (although he's getting old), I wouldn't pay 40M for ANY current central defender, let alone a 22 y.o. from a shit league .

Ahhh I miss him

Can we not bring Cookie Monster and Mario back?.....not in their actual roles as CEO and footballer but just in an equivalent (for them) of "honorary life president" etc?

I love that pair of crazy fucks

In no way, shape or form do I believe that English football Clubs are corrupt and that questionable dealings are concocted behind closed doors.

However, if I were of that viewpoint and believed in such conspiracies, I might be a little concerned of the 'coincidences' involving the Scum and Cardiff, for instance :-

Premier Division relegation strugglers Cardiff appoint Ole Gunnar Soltsjaer (former player of mid-table team Manchester Utd) as manager.

Cardiff, desperate for points, then have to play away at mid-table team Manchester Utd, also struggling but for different reasons and, in the game, they just lie down and die, allowing the mid-table strugglers to win 2-0.

Final day of the transfer window and mid-table Manchester Utd send out striker Wilfred Zaha to relegation strugglers Cardiff, on loan.

Altogether, an unfortunate set of coincidences.

how is that different than Chelsea loaning an entire squad's-worth of players to Vitesse Arnhem?

Other than them being in a different league and not being able to get points off of them for a "favor" like loaning them players, nothing.

the Chelsea-Vitesse Arnhem collusion is more of a problem than the imaginary "Cardiff lost to United on purpose" conspiracy theory

Agreed. Not often I agree with you, is it, mate?

I'd be interested to hear why our goose-stepping chum thinks it's such a big issue though, especially as we have been doing similar with the young Ghanaians.

I don't know mate, I think you do agree with me more lately.

It's probably because you're getting soft in your latter years :)

If I was a Gooner I would be pissed at the board for relying on matchday income as the largest part of the club's revenue - absolutely criminal given their club's status.

Mourinho the tactical genius sold mata to United in hope that Utd will get points off City and others.

Since then - Chelsea lost to West Ham and Stoke beat Utd
