Personally I would much prefer Erikson then Pjanic, I think he is more versatile, will be a better player in a year or two and is cheaper. Both I would assume mean by by to Sig but both would prob be an upgrade so I don't mind too much. Bringing in Lamela and Erikson would be incredible.

Imo this is what's happening.
Lewis had fronted the money to replace Bale before he goes. By the time the window shuts we'll break even.
Idiots will say we're big spenders when truth is it'll be yet another window when our net spend is very low.

As long as the first team and squad has been strengthened which is currently happening and we are stronger when the window closes than at the start that is all what matters, leave the financial stuff for general levy to worry about.

So now Manchester United are being linked with Lamela in a swap deal for Nani.

Talk about a dagger if that were to happen.

That would hurt. And tbh I can see it. Moyes lined up 4-3-3 against Wigan. It suggests he wants someone left footed on the right.

Painful, but it seems like a smart deal to me. Nani has expressed wanting to go to Italy before when Juve were in for him. Lamela wouldn't turn down United, not many would. My only hope is that Nani scuppers this by being too egotistical to take a step down to play for Roma.

Is there a link/quote for this...or just rumour?

That would be hard to take but Baldini's influence and connections must go some way to equalising the "Man Utd effect". Lamela would be wonderful, as would Willian but for once I just have this (perhaps naive) feeling that we have really sorted out the way we conduct transfers

Di Maria won't come here. Shaqiri but I'm not sure if he would want to come here, Liverpool were interested in him so it's possible. Not sure if Pep rates him.

I hear his breasts are small and humble

(Didn't Liverpool agree terms and the deal then fall apart?)

I remember reading it in either the Gazzetta or Corriere well before last season ended. They were rumoured to be interested in Nani. I wouldn't take it as gospel, of course. It's just a sports paper.

Thanks.

I agree with Pauline-Ho. Baldini all over this one.

Plus, a link a year ago, when Ferguson was boss is different to no link at all this transfer window.

Please don't startle me like that Snarf:cry:
