    ... I'll wait till I see his statements to BBC, Skysports or an actual move. ManU still has to agree to sell him.

    Well its not a done deal yet... but at least he has publically stated that he will join us. But yeah it would have sucked more if he had stayed at manchester and not perform as well as last year. Also Calderon might be looking to sign Fabregas [​IMG].... Which I dont get because we have a need for strikers and defenders.

    Right, I'm not sure he'll ever have a higher value than he did before Euro 2008.

    Pretty much. He has been saying he will move to Real Madrid since the beginning.

    Yeah but this time its more serious I think.

    In the end it'll work for my team though, having 100 mill to spend, etc.

    To be honest, I've stopped caring. On a brighter note, I'm going to the Community Shield - Man U v Pompey [​IMG]

    Fantastic bro. Ronaldo won't be there either way as he's gonna be missed either for the first few months or the whole season. I think it would be hard to find a replacement now.

    We'll do just find, once we get Berbatov and a few other strikers.

    And we have Anderson and Nani. [​IMG]

    It will make things more interesting though, all 4 teams (utd, arsenal, liverpool and chelsea) will be kind of on the same level, fighting for the top spot. More fun that way.

    Spurs! Bah, give me a break. They'll just crash and burn. They still have no defense.

    To me, Nani looks better now than Ronaldo did in his first season at United, so I think that he could at least step in and do the job. However, with Giggs getting older, there would still be a huge gap on either the left or right. Interestingly, Owen Hargreaves could do a job there as he has looked fantastic when playing wide right, but his best role will always be holding midfielder. I hope that Fergie is still talking to Carlos Quieroz, who appears to have some of the best contacts for finding and purchasing talent within Portugal. I have no doubt that there is a young player (circa 20) in Portugal or Spain that United have their eyes on already, to be honest.

    There will already be a contingency plan for what to do with the £60 odd million that they would receive from any Ronaldo transfer. As United appear to be willing to spend just under £25m already (possibly Berbatov), that would mean Fergie would have probably £80m to spend. My guess on the breakdown would be:

    £25m - Berbatov/other striker
    £30m - replacement winger
    £25m - young players/backup for January window.
