I'm thinking two seasons of winning fuck all with us might well get in the way of his Old Trafford ambitions. He needs to keep his Special One sheen if he wants that job.

We couldn't just go from Wenger to Mourinho straight away it would be like going from 0-100 in 2 seconds.

CitizenNo9

when Wenger goes we are going to get a yes man, 'cos Wenger is simply going to retire to the board and no manager worth his salt wants Wenger the all powerful hovering above him pulling the strings.

Claudius

keeping Wenger about in a senior role would be a disaster. he should have no direct football influence. even a job of chief scout would be too destructive.
he can be an ambassador, handing out footballs in Bamako somewhere and ranting about financial fairplay at football conferences

Conor

Mario Gomez on his way to Chelsea apparently.

RMC Radio (the one who broke Ibra to PSG) says Cavani has signed for PSG for 40m.

y va marquer

That's almost reasonable.
I suppose his salary is insane

I'll assume that you don't mean "he wants nothing"?

Bet we get gameiro

spacemanspiff

We'll get Jove, and Wenger will try to mould him into a central forward - we might suffer from it in the short term though.

Bild reporting Mourinho and Falcao to Chelsea is a done deal

Kolo is to leave city in the summer but wants to stay in England. Would we?

This rumours been around a few years now

We are so left out of the feast at high table. Should've sold out to some monied Russians or Arabs. I know guys like Capi think there is light at the end of the tunnel, but the stratification is set. Teams like Real, Barca, Bayern, etc will continue to grab the big players and pay them big money, and we'll be stuck feasting on scraps. We missed out by not investing big 3 or 4 years ago.

Rex

Things ARE moving in our direction. Ever so slowly.

Claudius

there is no chance, Rex. just look at how much less money than United we make. this summer, they are going to add some good players to what they already have and we will add some Gervinhos. I think Chelsea are more or less established at a wage level somewhat above ours. Not clear what will happen to Citeh given how much less money they make. However, in Europe, we will for the foreseeable future be far behind Real, Barca and Bayern. I just don't see us competing at home or abroad. Selling Fabregas/van Persie and not replacing them was probably the final nail in our coffin.

Captain

We'll compete at home.

Rex

Think so too.

Wow Inter unveils 5 signings even before windows open. Icardi is a huge coup
