Benzema seems to have his heart set on Real, Barca or Milan so I really doubt we'll get him although I wish we did! And I agree rollingstone, after the spending of the last 2 years, it seems unlikely that we will fork out another 30m but it does seem the only way you're going to get a truly top class player with the current market. Especially with a massive club like Utd who everyone knows aren't short of a few bob. |

I know I should have said it in the berbatov thread but seeing it written out again makes me feel the need to say it. What a fucking waste of 30m quid. seriously. |

Benzema isn't a LW and the Lyon coach needs to realise this. It's no wonder they're struggling for the first time in like 8 years... |

We always overspend for players at the time of buying, but usually it works out - Rooney, Ferdinand, Carrick, and I'm starting to think Anderson though he's got a bit to go. Other times, not so much - Hargreaves (though that's not really fair), Nani. Berba I don't think will ever be worth £30m, but then again, the market right now has gone pretty mental: even Arsenal floughted about some cash in Jan. |

Yep. He's gonna get the sack. Laurent Blanc is a fantastic manager and he is doing a great job at Bordeaux... |

I really hope Bordeaux don't win the league this year as once Gourcuff leaves in the summer they'll be struggling for top 4 again. |

He wasn't bought to score 30 goals a season. Never once did Fergie say that he would or that he expected him to. He was bought to add another dimension to our attack. He can't justify such a fee in 8 months and if people were expecting him to make us look a much better team well, it's not easy to improve on what we done last season, it's extremely difficult to even sustain it. |

Even more reason they should win because they won't have another chance... |

They'll disgrace themselves in the CL though, but in the position they're in at the mo qualifying for the CL is a dead cert. I guess I just want PSG to win it too much, but in reality anybody bar Lyon would be a refreshing change. |

All the signs are pointing toward Barcelona signing Ribery atm. I really think Ronaldo will stay at United. No other side other than Madrid is likely have the means of aquiring Ronaldo and they already have Robben. Imo, they would be foolish to sell the latter as he's already settled there and is one of the key men in the side. It may be Perez' dream to have the best players but from a managerial point of view having both Ronaldo and Robben in the same team is more fantasy than reality and puts under threat the balance of the side as well as the positions of many other players. Further, as rollingstone asserted, Fergie was loathe to let Ronaldo go last summer and there really is not reason for that situation to change. The are plenty of other trophy signings for Perez to choose from and it seems more likely that someone of the ilk of Kaka, Benzema or David Villa is destined to become the terrace hero at the Bernabeu. This leaves United in the same position as they are now - hopefully Fergie will see that Tevez really isn't worth the money and ship him off for the good of all concerned - with the need to buy a top quality predatory striker, the likes of which Old Trafford has not seen since Ruud Van Nistelrooy, my bet would be Benzema as well as he has the potential to become a great, and with Fergie to teach him, we may well be looking at quite a scary frontline. The alternative is that he may stick with what he currently has and allow a bigger role at the club for the likes of Macheda and Welbeck - though imo it's too early for them both, and that also leaves United with the added problem that Berbatov may not come good, in which case they won't have that many options. |

It'll really surprise me if their team next season is anywhere near as good as this season's team. Big players like Gourcuff and Diarra will almost certainly be leaving and will be tough players to replace. |

Fergie will not sign Benzema. I think our squad will remain much the same next season minus Tevez, and consequently our formation will be in a constant state of flux whenever one of our front trio get injured. Arsenal should be licking their lips. |

I'm not saying he will or he won't sign him, but what makes you so sure it will be the latter? |
