Selling RvP to Utd was the point I realised we were done as a big club. We had the option to accept a bid from Juve for £5m less and the penny pinching board decided to hand Fergie the league.

You're giving me statistics but you're not giving me a list of leaders who are 1. Available for transfer 2. Aren't 30+

Most clubs have this problem now:yeshrug:

Your coaches, analysts and scouts werent looking for one either. Going off the rumoured shortlist of Kounde, Pau Torres and Mings.

De Vrij is available and considering Inter owe you money :manny:

De Vrij eh? :unimpressed:


He's nearly 30 as well tbf.

These players don't really exist anymore, and if they do they're like gold dust.



Also lol @ Mings, no chance were were in for him. Especially given he usually plays LCB iirc.

Only Kounde and Varane were real targets IMO. Torres and Mings are lefties and tbh Slabhead been playing LCB for as long as I can remember. And it doesnt make sense to move your club captain from his position for someone who are lesser players than he is.

Marquinhos was my other choice but you said available for transfer and I highly doubt PSG will sell their club captain

Glad we didn't for for Torres tbh, would get eaten alive.

Marquinhos is one of the last of a dying generation.

It's nothing but soft from here on out:mjcry:
