That stat will always be inflated by the nice price you got for Ronaldo.

1m euros a week from PSG, living in paris or 50k from man utd to play less games living in the rainy Manchester
it doesnt make sense from a football point of view or family point of view
You do realise its David Beckham and Manchester Utd we are talking about.. Im sure he has enough money to turn down PSG
yes... but if he still feels he can play more matches then he will choose PSG. also dont underestimate PARIS, that is a superb city to live in and at this time of his career why go back to man utd where you are legend and maybe perform crap and ruin it
he has nothing to prove so he should just go enjoy himself and live in a beautiful city. he will always love man utd doesnt mean its right for him to come back

I'm looking forward to Man United's collapse, now that Vidic has gone.

Thought this was quite good, unfortunately
Apart from the fact Vidic won't appear on ch5, and Rooney's hair is superb.

Does not change the fact that we've sold for more than we have spen, and that we haven't used a pence of our world class level revenue...

The Glazers have taken far more out of the club than people realise, in the past 3 seasons Manchester United has had a net-spend of -6M pounds. In contrast Manchester City has spent 253M, and Chelsea has spent 140M pounds. Manchester United in the past 3 years has a netspend that is less than every other big club ( except Arsenal), and even have a lower net spend than Wolves. Since the Glazers took over United has had a lower net-spend than Manchester City, Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham among others (which I already forgot )
So based on evidence Sir Alex and David Gill are fibbing when they say the Glazers haven't affected our spennding power. Note that the net spend does not even take into account our massive revenue stream.
ferguson is a master
to still be successful and reach so many CL finals with that little spending is extraordinary. only arsenal spend as little as us and they barely make the top 4 where as we have been winning league titles.
The first two CL Finals were reached with a very high net spend, it was only after that that it became very low. Since then Barcelona have been a class apart, and we didn't even retain the Premier League in 2009/10.

Re: Manchester United FC Official Thread
I'm not really worried about who wins what trophy when it comes to judging managers - if Chelsea had gone bust in 2009 then we would have won the League in 2010, would that make Fergie a better manager? No. What I am worried about is the direction in which the team is going, which is downhill.

so you rate winning the league as nothing where as winning the CL is everything about a managers quality oh man...

No, I have written an article about how the importance of winning trophies is vastly overstated when it comes to judging a manager's quality.

I hated channel 5.
I hated the games in the Europa league. Especially, the group stages. They were boring as fuck.

I got a good feeling about the Wolves game. Think we'll bounce back superbly and City will drop points too.

#mufc in Europe since Vidic signed in 06. Vidic starts (44): 0.8 goals per game conceded, 56% clean sheets. No Vidic (23): 1.04 gpg, 34% cs.”
Not that any European stats really matter this season

Honestly I've been positive in our last 2, and I'm not jinxing, but we wont bounce back well, if we managed to win it'd be scrappy, reckon a 1-1 tbh, and don't see City dropping anything except Chelsea.

I went to a home game. We were all ready though, and it was the most boring 0-0 game I have ever watched. :

I've been pessimistic on our last 2 , Wolves are struggling this season and I really think we will beat them comfortably.

he doesnt look bothers anymore which is annoying
he looked like a fresh player at the start, now he just barely runs and drops far too deep

The clubs with a bigger net spend than us, since 2005, are in the following order: City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham, Villa, Sunderland and Stoke. Then there is us, 7th.
Of course our spending power has been affected. I don't believe a word Gill says half the time. Also, I don't believe what Ferguson says regarding transfers and funds.

Andy Towsend saying we haven't "taken a team to the cleaners" since we beat Arsenal.
2 weeks after we beat Arsenal we went to Bolton and won 5-0.
