Do United have the funds to do that?

Yes. If we were interested in a £35 million David Villa, and have just signed an unknown for £8 million, it's pretty obvious the money is there. The major problem is not the transfer funds, it's the interest on the debt.

Believe it or not, but the more you spend on interest, the less you will have for tranfers.

Thus, and I reiterate it for the 2nd time, the "major problem" is the interest on the debt.

"To maintain the success at any football club is not a certainty, i.e. I always believe a four-year cycle is probably the most you can achieve in terms of success. Very few teams can create more than that four-year cycle. Last season we almost did it, we were one point short of winning the league for a record fourth time.

"We realised that to maintain that high consistency of being there challenging we had to inject youth into the club and we’ve been doing it for the last three or four years. We realised some years ago that Giggs, Scholes and Neville were never going to last forever and our policy is therefore to develop players within the club. We had a player that once said to me Rooney and Ronaldo weren’t good enough. Can you believe that? He actually said they weren’t good enough and he wasn’t prepared to wait until they were. That’s what happens, that’s the problem with potential – people don’t identify potential, they’re very poor at it. I’ve identified it all my life within young people – I know potential, I know how it can be developed and I know how to have faith in it - young people surprise you when you give them an opportunity. And that’s what this club is about. So when you see Manchester United at the moment with all these young players, you can’t see Manchester United three years ahead because you’re not thinking about that.

"We will invest in players when the time is ready. This summer wasn’t the right time as far as I was concerned; there was no value for me. There was one player who we would have liked to have got but he chose another club. I don’t think he ever wanted to come to England anyway. Some players don’t want to leave their country, it’s a fact of life, some players are happy in their own country. Some players are happy to leave and Manchester United is always a big attraction for any player. If they don’t want to leave their country then we forget about it.

"In terms of the future of Manchester United there are a lot of things in my favour – history, the respect we have from people – if I told you how many agents phone my secretary every week about players who would love to play for us - and I don’t just mean run of the mill players, I’m talking about players at almost every club in the world - it would amaze you. It’s because this club still has that fantastic romance and respect from everyone.

"Sometimes you look in a field and you see a cow and you think it’s a better cow than the one you’ve got in your own field. It’s a fact. But it never really works out that way. It’s probably the same cow which is only as good as your own cow. We have to deal with that – some players like to think that it’s a better world somewhere else, it never really works like that.

"As I said, three Premier League titles in a row is fantastic and we were within one point of a record fourth. It didn’t happen for us and we didn’t like that and we want to do something about it. We’ll be okay – I’ve got every confidence in that. We have a structure at the club which is good, we have the right staff, the right manager, the right chief executive, he’s a brilliant man. There’s nothing wrong with Manchester United, not a thing wrong with it. So we’ll carry on."


They may take our lives but they will never take OUR FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM! ALBA GU BRÀTH
Wow what a man :worship:

To replace the veterans i.e. Giggs, Scholes, Vidic, Ferdinand, Neville/O'Shea.

Plus, United aren't able to compete with the financial heavyweights such as Real (also importantly in terms of the culture and environment surrounding the club) and Man City. They have the transfer funds, but United just don't have the ability to step it up to the relative excessive amounts akin to the turn of the century. Where they do have an supreme advantage is in their extensive scouting network, and the likes of Bebe, Hernandez, the twins, showing the great extent to which SAF is utilising it.

For United to challenge on ALL fronts, another GK (would be ideal if SAF can put VDS off that idea for another season), a LW (RW is comfortably Nani's favoured position), A CM (Replace a gaping hole, for which Sneijder would be perfect) & ST (though it's overly essential).

I am excited about the youngsters, yet they will take years to mature, and I fear my bias is in the way of an accurate analysis of their potential.

Taken from the united website:

But throughout the match there was a cloud looming over United. Wayne Rooney released a statement hours before kick-off reiterating his stance that he wants to leave and citing ambition as his reason. Sir Alex's response? He smiled and said: “Is it 30 trophies I’ve won, or what?”

SAF - will you be my grandad?

van Nistelrooy's gripe was with the the emergence of Saha and the fear his playing time would be reduced. And either way, Rooney showed no signs of being shite during those 2 years with RvN.

Keane evidently despised some of the youngsters.

Pato, in an ideal world.

Tbf, the rest I've not seen much of to produce a solid opinion. On the face of it, the age-factor comes into it when considering anyone over 28 (Fabiano, Forlan etc.), Dzeko seems a very good striker, but again, United haven't the excessive funds to compete against City and even Juventus. Aguero? Seems very over-rated.
