"5 players to revive United..."

According to Stam and Nedved, these 5 players are what Man Yoo need to revive themselves...

Iker Casillas

Likely Cost : £5M

Ledley King

Likely Cost : £10M

Gattuso

Likely Cost : £15M

Michael Essien

Likely Cost : £12M

Defoe

Likely Cost : £13M



Well, I agree with almost everything...well, everything really. Here are a list of players Yoo are almost definately getting rid of:

Van Nistelrooy - £20M
Saha - £5M
Kleberson - £4M
Fortune - £3M
Neville - £2.5M
Liam Miller - 1M
Ricardo - 500k

Thats a total of £36 Million!

Who agrees with them?

(Got this info from The Nuts if anyone wants to know)

EDIT| An interesting fact as well : Former Yoo player Diego Forlan has scored more goals for Villareal than Ruud and Rooney put together this season!

And Crespo.

But he always said he loves it in Scotland, that he considers himself more Scottish then Italian, and at the end of his career would love to go back.

I don't remember him being bad at Rangers, but even then, he was really young.

He's been awesome, we still need a new right back though, I think it'll be a while before Hutton fully recovers, and without a rightback, RIcksen would probably still play there.

Yeah, but the end of his career is ages away.
I can see Gattuso being one of those players who plays till he's 38.

I'm hoping we get Nonda, I think the possibilty of pairing up with Prso again might attract him to Rangers, although Juve appear to be chasing him to.
They're trying to sign Hysen as well, funnily enoughthough I don't think it's a winger we need at the moment. If we get him, we'd probably play Burke on the right (which would be good), but that would probably shift Buffel out of the team, who I think could be the next Laudrup if he keeps his form.
I think we may get Dellas too, but only if we sign Kyriagkos on a long term deal, though I don't know what sort of system we would have to resort to, as we'd have three centerbacks.
I dunno about Huntelaar either, as he seems to be attracting quite a lot of interest from other clubs.
That Brazilian guy Andre looks like a good bet too, seeing as Ball and Vignal appear to be leaving.

It's all speculation though, with Murray saying that he'll give McLeish actual money (MONEY!) to buy players over the summer, he might try and pay for players.

He was good, but Advocaat played Ferguson over him, and with about 60 million's worth of players to field, also, Gattuso never really stood a chance.

He was only at whatever club he signed for a few months before he was bought by Milan for 8 million (And we sold him for about 50p). Mind you, if we'd sold him for 8 million, Advocaat would have probably bought some random player no-one's ever heard of who would never ever play a game (like Daniel Prodan).

Anyway, I think Ferguson playing over him was why in the Scotland - Italy match, Gattuso and Ferguson were really going at it with each other.

Fletcher is turning out great.

PLUS, he plays for Scotland. Hurrah

Yup, I hate Man U, but I don't mind if they win games if Fletcher scores/sets them up.
